Off topic. It seems to me that "preping" became less popular after covid. Perhaps, people realized how ineffective it was when we encountered a doomsday scenario in real life?
What is the reason for disallowing video game rewrites ? Officially, unofficially.

It is becoming very hard not to use an LLM. I have been working on a project all this year. I started doing everything by hand, and I am using LLMs a little bit more every day. I suppose we want to use projects that…
I started using SCCS in the late 80s, then RCS, then CSV, then subversion, and finally git.
I also consider myself a fairly good pragmatic software engineer. I have led small (3 engineers), medium (15), and large (100+) teams. To me, the best time was late 90s, early 2000s. We had a lot of autonomy. People…
I imagine the parent comment was just paraphrasing on the "Is the economy stupid" phrase from the Clinton campaign,
Those are left-leaning only if you do not the details. Please consider that this government has a fantastic propaganda machine. For example, We already had a Universal Basic Healthcare called Seguro Popular. Which was…
The current government of Mexico sells itself as a left leaning party. But it has been destroying or capturing every institution we had built to support our democracy, the separation of powers and the rule of law. From…

The US had the power to start the war. The US doesn't have the power to stop the war.
Well thought out strategic tariffs are ok. But this is knee jerk tariffs. Even in the best case scenario introduces a lot of uncertainty which freezes investing and decision making in general.

While interesting. Is it a 'Major discovery' ?
I am not sure if your initial paragraph was meant to be sarcastic. I do believe we should give additional help based on economic need rather than race or skin color. Free universal preschool seems to have big impact.…
I always thought that an Engineering degree with an MBA is a very good combination. You get very practical, useful things when you are younger. Once you have acquired enough life and work experience then you can…
I don't feel the parent post is about bad envy. There is also good envy, when you feel happy for someone's blessings. But you also would like to have it for yourself.
Oh, I think I know who is this. The CEO is fantastic (he is very technology oriented) but he is super convinced this is the right way. It has all kinds of perverse consequences. The constant loss of experience shows…
My washing machine also has this AI icon. Not a big deal but it makes me roll my eyes everytime I see it.
Even if the project didn't become popular. Have you been able to use it as part of your portfolio to get a job, or move into academia ? Perhaps what you learned in the project was useful in some other way ?
It has crossed my mind that being a scientist is for people who are already financial independent. Same as being an artist. For the rest of us, we need focus on careers where we can make a living. Of course, we can…
Back in the 90s. I was part of a team working R&D project on flexible manufacturing. One of the central concepts was the use of buffers (also called decouplers) between manufacturing stations. These buffers were the…
