If you've already done some research then include that up front. I get asked a lot of questions by people who not only haven't asked an AI first they haven't even googled it. So if you've asked Claude and are not…

Yes and your example is the hero case because it isn't just sugar. A t-string implementation for SQL will of course escape the values which is a common security issue. https://xkcd.com/327/
Here is the blog post from Project CETI that did the research https://www.projectceti.org/blog-posts/sperm-whale-phonetic-... Ridiculous how many articles repeat the NYT'$ paywalled headline but don't report any sources.
Why does this post link to a renamed fork of Paper-QA (https://github.com/whitead/paper-qa) which has made zero changes and is 19 commits behind the original?
IANAL, but the short answer is you can't use US Copyright law to restrict how content is consumed. The limited protection given to authors by the law is to restrict what others can publish. The law has been thoroughly…
If the DOJ's case is that Google pays $10B to Apple to exclude competitors then they're suing the wrong company. Their story is actually that Apple is the one with the monopoly that they then sell piecemeal to third…
Humans don't need the Semantic Web, AI/bots do. It is expensive to turn text into the useful semantic bits that are useful for doing computations on large (or even moderate) quantities of data. So the AI will create a…
LLMs are more likely to create novel content (i.e. "hallucinate") than copy training data verbatim, so, in a word, "No". In fact the unpredictability and hallucination behavior is what is called creativity in artistic…
Four COBOL for the JVM implementations here along with Prolog, Common Lisp, four versions of Scheme (don't forget Clojure), Smalltalk, two versions of Pascal, Go, Rust, three JavaScript, Simula (the original OO…
This is great. Would love to be able to enable this on my keyboard for typing everything as a bit of an upgrade over my super clicky mechanical keyboard.
Thanks to your exceptional focus and determination you've arrived early at what is widely called Midlife Crisis. The aphorism your story brings to my mind is "Don't just do something, sit there!". Not sure what will…
It's not a joke. It's an aphorism that is funny because it is true.
100% disagree. My standard gmail address is with dots but when I have to tell my (rather long because it is my full three part name) I either omit the dots or tell them they don't matter. Totally an important and useful…
The answer is "Yes" and Google is your friend here. Highly relevant queries with high quality top hits are: [software engineering research] [psychology of programming] [empirical research on computer language…
