    More geniuses The problem here is with the distribution of future geniuses. More likely than not they will be born into a population with low education. The probability of nurturin…

    Given enough time, there is no such thing as a 1:n relationship.

    Much like the Y2K bug kerfuffle, there will be a time when the Copilot bug will cause an upsurge in business requiring developers to fix the stochastic parrot code bugs. I think th…

    I'm sure you know this, David, but it looks like it's a yes, there is life on Mars.

    Who is the judge of “inflammatory” content? It’s just censorship plain and simple. Why not let the truth be told? Edit: judging by the way the votes keep going up and down there's …

    Interesting, I hadn't thought of that. As a a developer about to use the Pi at the edge, I can see how this would be helpful with delivering footage from the IoT devices. I'm not s…

    I hadn't considered an RDP use-case. Thanks!

    I've used WebRTC in JavaScript, but I can't quite get why I would use this library. Can anyone respond with use cases?

    Very nice, I've been waiting the longest time for something like this. I feel that WebRTC needs books like this, it's such an underrated technology.

    I call BS on any corporation offering anonymity. I just don’t believe them anymore.

    I’m glad that RISC-V SBCs are starting to become usable.

    Same in Australia. The jobs are advertised but I never hear anything back. For me it’s not a racial thing as I too am an naturalized immigrant, but it seems the preference for subc…

    It’s the same everywhere. In the Australian government most directors who hire developers are Indian and seem to have all Indian teams on worker visas. It’s impossible to get a gov…

    Automakers admit? It's not theirs to admit to. Touchscreens are the only way to go. Buttons on phones went out years ago. I still have to look for buttons on my ICE car, and worse …

    I'm more interested in addressing the suppression issue. This kind of suppression stinks of lobbyists and corruption.

    Are you going to publish an app for this? Seems like something I would use so often that going into my browser of 1000 tabs would give me RSI.

    Quite simply, you’re not valued. Good managers know about the risk of churn, bad ones don’t care. I’ve found familiarity breeds contempt (of remuneration) which can be impossible t…

    Refactoring to patterns by Joshua Kerievsky might help. It’s not the best book (Refactoring by Martin Fowler us another), but it might help with planning the work. Quantifying cost…

    What defines disinformation? If “provably true” is an aspect of information, “not provably true” should be a facet of disinformation. Therefore the lawful mechanisms that exist for…

    I think it’s just dictatorships and dicwannabe governments. This list includes former democracies known as the US, UK and others (you know who you are)

    Apologies, I don’t understand. Are you missing a /s for sarcasm? Why would anyone outside Hong Kong be subservient to their laws?

    My point is not too hard to understand, stay with me here. I don’t live in China, therefore not subject to their laws. GitHub is not a China company, therefore not subject to their…
