There are a bunch of mid-sized companies that * are mostly B2B oriented * are (usually) private * have a healthy balance sheet * have their own niche so they don't have to fight for survival but don't have to…
What if an existing app gets an update that exploits the vulnerability? For sure that's not going to happen to an app released by a major company, but there are lots of less known app created by many different…
I never understood why a mobile operator has any say in when to apply security patches? Does it happen with iPhones?
If you heavily rely on Word and PowerPoint. I know several companies that almost never use those products except in limited situations (legal, keynote presentation etc). All "regular" discussions/presentations take…
We talk about "probability" here because the topic is hallucination, not getting different answers each time you ask the same question. Maybe you could make the output deterministic but does not help with the…
Let me explain this with a simple example: * If a company controlled by PE goes bankrupt, shareholders (PE) likely make a profit * But if a publicly listed company goes bankrupt, shareholders lose their money In other…
Good for you, not for anyone else reading the code or yourself 6 months later. Seen too much of that.
I imagine what it means is basically, "Before COVID, universities had to collaborate with Udacity to produce these courses and manage course credits/online degrees. Now they realized that they can easily do it…
I don't necessarily disagree with "Libreoffice is junk" but that's not actually a problem, or all the problem. As the article has stated, 80% of the licenses were dropped, while 20% of the use cases continue to be…
CMU's database courses are a famous example: https://15445.courses.cs.cmu.edu/fall2025/ Princeton used to offer algorithm courses on Coursera with full assignments including auto grading, I don't know if that's still…
> interviewers may still have their own opinions That says nothing other than that the interviewers have a narrow mind and/or are ignorant. OMSCS is a very well known program, and it's their problem if they don't know…
In the past they made videos available via Udacity, which were removed after Udacity turned their focus to short & easy (which often means superficial) courses for enterprise training instead of "serious" university…
You might as well simply claim "I don't see a CS degree has any value these days". OMSCS is not any less than a "real" graduate school program experience.
Hmm... I never bought a BMW, certainly because I am poor, but also because everyone around me who drives a luxury car keeps telling me how expensive yet unreliable everything is, while everyone who drives a Toyota and…
Do fact checkers ever "claim authority" over anything (especially in news organizations)? Perhaps time to get that wild claim fact checked by yourself.
I don't, but I know as a matter of fact that they often make bad decisions, many of which are public and discussed extensively in online forums, books and research reports.
Who are "people"? How would all of this start? In terms of standard, the specs already use "ECMAScript" and don't even mention JavaScript (https://github.com/tc39/ecma262/), although TC39 website does use it frequently.…
I avoided the entire butterfly keyboard/touch bar Macbooks by buying an older model (2015 MacBook pro, the last one with scissor switch until 2020) and not upgrading until M series. That turned out to be a good decision.
"create very strict laws" Who's going to draft those laws? Definitely not the lawmakers who could benefit from this. See the problem?
I bet you didn't click that link. A wrapper and an API that is built-in to the runtime and optimized for those use cases are different things.
JavaScript ≠ frontend bun ≠ front end development tool hasn't been like that for many years
Hmm... "CEOs and teams" don't necessary do what's makes sense mathematically. Many, if not most of them, do whatever that sounds good to shareholders in their quarterly earnings call and ignore the reality or long term…
Microsoft is just relying on the feedback they collect from Windows Insider Program (a.k.a. program for volunteers beta testers) to fix bugs before a new version is released widely.…
Anyone remembers the "Windows Live" brand everywhere in the early 2000s?
You forgot the wonderful "Documents and Settings" folder. Thank god they came to their senses and changed it to "Users", something every other OS has used for forever.
