You can go back to requiring home assignments be written by hand. It won't completely fix the AI issue, because you can still ask ChatGPT and then rewrite it, but it helps because …

Ah yes, it was too crowded so nobody went there anymore.

First you would need to define a measure of inferiority. I'm pretty sure we have measured some very spicific things, and found that different races on average have some genetic adv…

"X can seem sensible and logical if you ignore sense and logic and believe your emotions instead". Yes, that's true for everything, and it is exactly what believing your emotions o…

Well, I still believe it's going to be good eventually. Like KSP1, for example, or No Man's Sky. There certainly have both the resources and a guaranteed player base to make that h…

As always, it's a tradeoff. Sometimes it's a problem, sometimes the same thing is a critical feature. Which is why it's so important that you have multiple choices. If you need the…

> over 10 years on a single install, upgrading from one release to the next\ I mean, that's about one release upgrade

> All green bets like diesel, biomass, natural gas That's a huge clue right there. Germany bet on the most conservative solutions (keeping their diesel cars and house heating syste…

We prevented it from escaping back into space. The sun didn't do anything different, we did.

It isn't so much about competitiveness or pettiness, but rather about individualism. Americans for some reason always like to think that everything was invented by a single super-g…

It kinda makes more sense for OpenTTD. The game is famous for creating huge complicated networks for moving cargo and passengers, it is natural that the devs gravitate towards huge…

Bitcoin would solve this, if it was actually used (or fit to be used) as intended - people keeping their own wallets and making on-chain transaction. However, because it is so poor…

Not when compared to a literal metal wire.

This is exactly what gets me every time some German "institute" publishes a study how electric cars pollute more than gas cars. They count everything that goes into producing elect…

Above average in diagnosed and treated mental illness. You know, the kind that is way less violent than the other kind.

If you're on AWS or GCP or Azure, and they terminate your account, and you use only the "standard" services (raw instances, k8s, database, redis, queues, email, etc.) it's generall…

What to use instead?

The opening is already completely missing the point. In Bob's book, the comment is highlighted because the paragraph is talking about the comment. Drawing a red circle around somet…

Compare it to what we have invested in killing each other, and despair.

In what cases would I have to worry about that?

I really don't understand all these complaints about how Kubernetes is so complex, how it's an investment etc. I am a single developer that uses Kubernetes for two separate project…

Why not build the web component in Django, and the rest in your language of choice?

Stress is more about the feeling of control rather than actual control. And you absolutely feel more in control in close combat than when you're targeted by artillery. For a relata…

The simple answer is that the cool system has a very uniform temperature (because it's been at that temperature for a long time), while the hot system that's cooling down is doing …
