Not necessarily. In this case the business seeks an alternative to workers such automation or simply going without.

No need to imagine. That would just be Declarative Programming going mainstream? Its just that algorithms like the Prolog’s WAM or the reet used in rules are replaced with neural n…

I want to read the follow up article where the challenge is to create a typesetted document. Bentleys criticism includes a single like Shell script invoking Latex.

Take a look at the code. He makes use of both Gotos and global variables. See paragraphs 5 & 7. He would have been rejected as a job applicant immediately as soon as the paragraphs…

Is the generator still being trained based on current comments? If so, how long will it be before it starts generating comments that include feeding the title init itself?

This is a feature not a bug. If one of the words is slightly wrong, then you want it to be obvious. If the Kentucky emergency operator adds an extra s they will see that it can’t b…

But they won’t find Musk when watching Iron Man or Avengers. To find him in film they have to watch the Greatest Showman.

Is it possible that value can be generated without a financial transaction?

The reason is explained in the front matter: “On one level, the data is simply a part of a mundane programming book. On another, each row represents immense suffering, lives lost, …

Erik may know SQL but there’s an entire generation of developers who don’t. These developers find it easier to dip into shallow DSLs instead of learning the depths of SQL.

I’d like to defend this guy. What he is doing is testing the trust mechanism. If he went to Google and said ‘I think the trust mechanism is broken’ Google would say: ‘We know, that…

Exactly, the only video game Crash here in the UK was Newsfield’s magazine.

I think he is making a mistake selling this as a book. These prices just don’t work for a book. He should be selling it as a knowledge community. Members get access to the resource…

Alexa is still struggling to understand what Album I want to listen to from my rather limited music library. She won’t be replacing the Amazon website anytime soon.

I think this is all about establishing a new distinctive look. The current one screams “1990” at anybody reading. Now they need something that is distinctly IBM while gently whispe…

Does any of this undermine any of Cialdini's content in his 'Pre-suation' book?

Somebody needs to publish: "Clickbait articles attract attention but reduce credibility"

Agreed. The investigation was good but there are issues with the reporting.

The experiment was not 'flat' vs 'not-flat'. It is weak-signifiers vs strong-signifiers. They have a hypothesis that states that users will be able to accomplish their task with le…

Does genetic variation rise in response to selective pressure? It seems to me that this is a two stage process. 1. Variation is introduced at a fairly constant rate by mutation. 2.…

Then why isn't the code being disallowed? Why is it being silently removed in the middle of the night through an optimization back door?

So go use rust and leave C for those who think it should.

The problem is that the language allows this code and the compiler accepts it. If the code really does make no sense, then why not disallow it or capture it with a compiler warning…

It says the attack hit multiple sites simultaneously. A worker said that the ransomware came through on the computers around 2pm. This doesn't sound like a spread by phishing or at…

'The thrust of these style guides falls back to a weird kind of masculine virility. The terms themselves—“passive” and “active”—rely heavily on received tropes of gendered norms, a…
