    I think they're another tool in the toolbox not a new workshop. You have to build a good strategy around LLM usage when developing software. I think people are naturally noticing t…

    I've had my Rotring 600 mechanical pencil for 10 years and I might need to add the ballpoint variant soon. I see some people mentioning that the new Rotrings aren't as good, which …

    Not just the technical aspect here. I read through the page and nothing of any measurable importance was stated. What problems did this solve? What benefits does this bring to user…

    > We can finally just take a photo of a textbook problem that has no answer reference and no discussion about it and prompt an LLM to help us understand what's missing in our under…

    Am I missing something? This is a color palette for a website? Is there something special going on here?

    I have two kids in grade school and middle school and I see why we have a STEM gap. I have to constantly correct the learning at home in math. Also, I think it's fair to assume tha…

    I don't think it will boost the fertility rate in any significant way. I think the only way to really make a dent in low fertility rates is to incentivize mothers to stay at home a…

    Imagine blending the traditional educational structures into EdTech and using network engineering to clamp down what can be accessed in a classroom device to only the educational s…

    This is exactly what I was thinking. I'm always trying to have fewer third-party dependencies in my codebase no matter how tiny, especially if it's solving problems that already ha…

    Those are my thoughts exactly. No metrics. It seems like an ad for some AI product to governments. Also, while cutting emissions is a good thing, wouldn't it be good to sell how th…

    It depends on what needs to be built. If the regulators 'like' what needs to be built it'll pop up fast, look at the wind turbine expansion in Europe and parts of the USA. In terms…

    This takes me back to the Geo Cities days, but with prompts! Pretty neat.

    I think we need to re-think the fundamental reasons for why we use computing technology. There was a time where computers were mainly used to assist humans in handling complex, ted…

    For example: "Let's do wind turbines to generate clean electricity!" The wind turbine manufacturing and decommissioning processes are hugely inefficient, not to mention the negativ…

    Doubtful. People either don't care or are too lazy to shift. Also, I think it's safe to assume ISP's are going to be wrapped in on this too.

    Is that a "formula"? Or does this happen in some cases where certain factors indicate that hiring at reduced salary for a similar but less experienced worker will yield the same re…

    First, thing I would consider is mentality. I'm a developer and there are times where I just shut it down after the shift and force myself to forget about work. Shut it off and jus…
