The problem with Python is that the whole ecosystem is based on CPython’s implementation details, so every change inevitably breaks something and requires effort of package maintainers to fix compatibility. There is no…
Because you still need short-lived branches for editing, CI/CD gates, bisecting, and an audit trail.
It’s obvious that such boneheaded methods don’t work. So what’s next? First, we need to deal with basic word substitution, which seems theoretically feasible. Then we need to deal with encodings such as Caesar cipher,…
What does a diagnosis have to do with any of that? How is that a whole other bag worms, that’s exactly the topic at hand.
Looks like a sale-leaseback. Similar in spirit to an asset-backed loan.
In Bayesian statistics that’s called credence. Weird that they felt the need to invent a new term.
It’s hard to meaningfully compare prices across countries due to differences in tax regimes.
Russia recently moved to its own SSL certificates due to sanctions. Now you cannot use a bank without allowing the government to MITM you.

It’s Ruby on Rails in the world of distros. If you find other distros tasteless and unpolished, you may want to try Omarchy. At least that’s how I see it (I find most Linux distros and development frameworks tasteless…
I don't see much value in knowing that dependent types can be used to encode logical quantifiers or similar stuff in applied programming. Maybe there is actual value that it creates after you grok those concepts (beyond…
> I feel like no serious work with this ambition What ambition? The book is an applied introduction for people who aren’t even familiar with what ∃ means. It’s 200 pages, which is at best comparable to a semester-long…
Hard to imagine anything worse than LaTeX for web layout. Imagine resizing a page and waiting for the re-compilation of the whole page.
The age verification that doesn't have to be a nightmare dystopia of 24/7 fine-grained tracking and recording is called parental controls and it already exists in most systems. It doesn't require any proof of ID,…

Does really do a great job? It just says there are no “instances”, it doesn’t explain how the architecture circumvents all the troubles that it leads to such as auth, sync, discovery, etc.
I remember around 2018 Tesla was actually criticised for excessive automation because it purportedly was slower and more expensive than manual work.
I thought I have clearly explained that I completely disagree with the claim and its entire framing. Not sure what you mean by conclusion that I supposedly agree with.

The discussions about intellectual property rights are quite recent, but the idea that "lies are also information and can travel even better using the same flow" was well-explored over 300 years of discussions about…
What exactly is this "information wants to be free" discourse? The arguments for and against freedom of speech as a foundational social principle span at least 300 continuous years.

If I take a text written on a tangential topic from a generation or two ago and try to imagine how it applies to the current state of AI that would be me putting words in your mouth and speculating on your…
Of course any research programme requires some assumptions. But I don’t see any reason to call it a fallacy. Saying that something may be “challenged” or is problematic is just weasel wording. Either there are some…
