They aren't 10x gains. They're more like 3.5x gains. But still worth it. By a lot.
you are never going to get away from reading the code every time. at least I haven't seen how you could possibly. That being said, it is considerably less work to read and check the code than it is to have to build it…
Parsing is the front end to a compiler. Can't get semantics without first recognizing syntax. I have a hard time thinking about programming languages without seeing them as a parsing exercise first, every time.
And they say you can't learn anything about computers from these bots... I had to learn this lesson from giving a shell account to one of my compatriots. I worked with him on group projects so I trusted him. He…
To be clear, I mean AI is going to be the downfall of ad supported content. But let's face it. We have link farms and spam factories as a result of the ad supported content market. I think this is going to eventually do…
This is ultimately just going to give them training material for how to avoid this crap. They'll have to up their game to get good code. The arms race just took another step, and if you're spending money creating or…
Some advice I follow, and give to others: Refuse notifications by default. Only enable them when you're getting paid to see them. (slack and work email, for example count as getting paid to see them)
I could do that, but then I'd have to maintain it. I used to hostfile hack my devices. but the vpn is just easier.
Transaction costs make it inefficient. Costs more to effect the transfer than they would be able to charge for the articles.
The web is the enemy. I have an ad blocking VPN and I use GroundNews to filter out sites that have paywalls. Between those two things, I lead a relatively sane life. But I tried looking at some of the same places on an…
I don't disagree, but neither does the article. It's just talking about the fact that we previously considered anything that can't be easily and tersely written down as nearly or entirely intractable. But, as we have…
Word and wordpad are terrible for editing code snippets tho, markdown solves this problem.
This would be a huge bonus for me if I ever had to use windows for anything.
I never saw Atari software for sale in the same magazines, but I'm sure it was available somewhere.
In the 1980's, computer software was sold in catalogs and magazines. Users had either of three platforms: A Macintosh, a PC-Compatible (probably x86), or a Commodore/Amiga. So these are the three categories were there…
fun thing about this page: i have gemini in the browser and when I asked it 'why is the entire Wall Family naming these things?' it said it couldn't engage. Turns out 'goatse' is a forbidden word to Gemini.
I recently read about 'in thread' ads, like on Twitter, as being not as effective unless they are 'brand recognition' ads. Like, they will help you decide which one to pick when you are staring at two fungible brands on…
AdGuard as a local VPN also bans unskippable Ads without the pesky legal enforcement baggage.
seems like blaming the users is the appropriate thing to do. just like blaming users for how they misuse guns and or photoshop.
I am unmoved by his little diatribe. What sort of compensation was he looking for, exactly, and under what auspices? Is there some language creator payout somewhere for people who invent them?
I love projects like this. finally someone found a new use for those dot matrix printers.
'defect' only applies to prisoners dilemma type problems. that is just one, very limited class of problem, and I would argue not very relevant to discussing AI inevitability.
I discovered this a few years ago when someone who didn't understand what semver is was trying to do a rails version upgrade for us. They were practically throwing stuff when I got there and explained that…
Nobody wants a damn web view. If I'm clicking off to a link, I may want to click to another app and back in and still be where it was... If it's in a webview that's gone as soon as I click out. Yes, you can open in…
'vanilla rails' is really a bunch of other tech bundled together. including much of it that is rendered using other technologies. hotwire? javascript and websockets. The thing that always gets me about Rails (and I am a…
