Your whole argument for not taking someone seriously is that they use a specific word 15 times? That's your standard for insanity?
Not sure how to feel about your implication that unmarried people are neither grown up nor adults.
Did anyone notice how the article goes on and on about making AI accessible to the billions of people in the world, but then in the same article says this: > Your agents need to be sovereign. Your company must own and…
How do you think humans experience desktop interfaces? “Basically just OCR'ing screenshots” is exactly what humans do.
> Is that specified or does it always just assume it isn’t really being put in charge of things for real? I think it's neither, and it's interesting that those are the only two possibilities you thought of. I think the…
The button to place an order should 100% be idempotent. There's one order you're constructing in your shopping cart, perhaps with an internal ID, and the irreversible “commit” button should place that order, not create…
It seems somewhat clear to me. You want it executed twice if and only if the operation isn't idempotent. Can you give an example where you think both behaviors are equally defensible?
It shouldn't buffer them like the author describes. It should execute the button’s function immediately when pressed. This might mean to cancel the current animation and jump ahead, or it might mean to speed it up by…
Have you tried asking your son if the slippers and/or the coat might be uncomfortable to him in some way? You seem to assume that he randomly throws tantrums just to annoy you, but maybe he has a reason.
How does this affect the Fairphone? If I buy a Fairphone now (which I've been considering for months now) will I continue to be able to run F-Droid and load arbitrary apps, or does it come with “official” Android that…
Technically anonymous I suppose because the struct is not named, but the article is mostly about type inference while your example has every type made explicit.
If a statically typed language has no support for record type (or the support it does have is insufficient for your purposes) then you are forced to find other ways to express your logic, so over time those other ways…
This is the one area where you actually want an LLM to be “nothing but a fancy auto-complete” like so many people say it is.
I'm not surprised the Ruhr area (the cluster of cities in West Germany surrounding Essen) sweeps the “30% greenery” benchmarks. This area was especially rich in coal deposits, leading to massive coal extraction during…
Just as a heads-up, if you do this and you want to use #rrggbb color codes or url(#id) links, you have to escape the # as %23, otherwise it gets parsed as a URL fragment and your SVG code is cut off there.
What non-contrived polynomial time problem can you think of that is n^20? I'm really curious.
It is in the context of this thread, because the article is about exponential growth.
You're fond of asking candidates an unrealistic hypothetical and you think that's revealing?
The one that is labeled as “German” is similar to, but noticeably different from, the hardware display actually in use on Berlin underground trains. The real one has proper descenders, and also has narrow i/t/l and…
There are a few mistakes in this talk; I'll list just two that I noticed. 1. He calls Array(16) and then talks about there being 16 separators. Of course, there are only 15. This kinda breaks the Batman joke. 2. He…
For future reference, the phrase is “hear, hear”.
Do you like Kool-aid? Perhaps a lot? You may be addicted.
Mastodon does not have persistence of data though. Your instance shuts down? All your posts are gone. I naively assumed I could just move them to a new instance and found out the hard way. I have felt disillusioned with…
It’s megahit, no hyphen. Also the exe is called prince.exe in my copy of the game but it’s possible there were other versions.
