    The other challenge with real people is the emotional aspect. Easier and faster to tell ai the code it wrote is terrible and needs to be redone completely, or maybe you just end th…

    I don’t have a lot of experience related to this so I’m just noting some things. Some people in this thread don’t seem to think it’s that hard or overcomplicated. When reading Desi…

    Can you elaborate on 4 a bit, are you saying to always use event sourcing, or something like it?

    I'm not claiming everyone uses the terms this way but for your consideration: Geeks - Obsessed over fictional world(s). Nerds - Obsessed over the real world (or a specific part of …

    Breaking and entering is to immigrating as pickpocketing is to taking my stuff. Sometimes immigration is legal. Sometimes taking my stuff is legal. There’s often overlap between le…

    a. Opposed to someone taking my money against my will and the law just because they want to, “for a better life”. b. Not opposed to someone taking my money in exchange for goods or…

    An alternative chain of events might be one where OpenAI, Inc. only operated through income and donations, which would probably lead to them scaling more slowly. They could also ta…

    The interested parties would be taxpayers. I think some groups are trying to look into it. The issue is that they did R&D as a charity, donations to which are tax deductible, there…

    Aside from the disagreements between these parties, what about the precedent of running a non-profit, and then transferring all IP to a for profit when it’s convenient to do so? I …

    The anti piracy stance would be making it illegal for a surgeon/person to copy the procedure another surgeon invented without payment. Copying does not require additional labor fro…

    Tesla was built on American R&D and manufacturing and is competitive in terms of cost and features. It’s probably easier to not innovate and go for almost guaranteed short term pro…

    This kind of specialization can be bad for factory workers as well. Doing the same motion over and over can lead to repetitive stress injury. I think it's true for any worker that …

    That’s an interesting point, I do often hear about being near a rail line as being a benefit for property values, but you don’t usually hear the same thing about being near an airp…

    I would have thought this as well. Looking at a trip from Fukuoka to Tokyo though. Shinkansen takes 5 hours and costs about $200. An economy flight is around $50 and takes less tha…

    I’ve never thought much about it, always consider it’s just a percentage. I am in Canada but it’s pretty much the same. Googling “tipping buy one get one” turns up this snippet fro…

    They calculate tips after fees and before discounts, so customers are tricked into tipping more. First noticed this after getting a buy one get one free deal and seeing a tip calcu…

    What should Prettier should do in this case? I think we can all agree there should be a line length limit, it has to enforce it eventually. You could say “it’s just a couple more c…

    I was with you until you said “make me Facebook for dogs”. I think a sufficiently pattern recognizing AI could probably make a somewhat useful/accurate application from that prompt…

    I usually tend to do the refactoring without asking permission. Just spend 20% of my time on it, get it done, definitely pays off. I tend to be pretty productive generally and with…

    IMO TypeScript nudges you away from bad patterns. If it’s a mess to type it, it’s probably a mess in general. If you are in a very rare situation and think you know better then the…

    I tend to jump to the opposite conclusion. If a name is cute I assume it’s something open source, named for marketing or SEO. If a name is descriptive I assume it’s probably intern…
