As a software engineer: the only impact the AI bubble has on me is the time it takes to explain what's a stake to less tech-savvy colleagues. Zero consequences on my actual job, ex…

Neat!

This looks really neat, I played with it a bit and the DSL is well thought out. One thing I can't figure though: how do we set default values for internal Struct? Said default valu…

Do you know what this median annual household income of $71k means outside of the USA? Inequality is a global problem, unfortunately. Cheapest Tesla being generally affordable in o…

What a load of utter bullshit. "infinitely knowledgeable"? Bollocks. Big deep learning models work fine, and if you forget the part where big firms hoard loads of data without any …

Well I had never heard of Woolf before the age of 25, so there's that.

Being French, I studied Montaigne in middle school (or high school, can't remember) – I did not expect to bump into him here. Quelle bonne surprise !

Or the speakers themselves, eventually

It's not a "sustainability tax", it's "acknowledging people are not slaves nor are resources infinite"

Replying to the last sentence: the essay is also full of repetitions. I didn't make anything of it the first time I read it, but now the AI-generated hypothesis is on the table it …

I reckon this analysis would benefit from absolute figures. A drop in market share doesn't necessarily mean less users if said market is experiencing a massive growth.

The last post on PeerTube was apparently deemed interesting, so I thought a Framasoft AMA would be welcome.

You're right, and Framasoft (the French non-profit behind the project) knows it. If you can help, or know people who can, I think they'd be glad to hear from you!

Yup, it's that amazing. That's why I think said institutions should donate to the project ;)

PeerTube is a free, decentralised and federated video platform, and a part of the fediverse, meaning you can interact with it via Mastodon and other tools, thanks to the ActivityPu…

Both Thunderbird (w/ TbSync) and Evolution work fine for basic calendar stuff. However, when comparing to Apple Calendar, they seem to lack two crucial features: - calendar delegat…

Nice. Any plans to make translations? I think it could be useful to a lot of people.

Fun fact : in the French version of Back to the Future, Pierre Cardin is the alias Marty takes instead of Calvin Klein. (and I only learned that yesterday, despite being French I h…

Well, no, he asks "What can we say about `not A' and `not B'?"

I don't understand. If A implies B, then not B implies not A, and I'm pretty sure when I was in CS school in France (5 years ago) we learned this. And I'm also pretty sure that I k…

Pointless code snippet to replace every image on a webpage by a kitten (it fails for very small images, because of dumb randomization) function randInt() { return Math.round (Math.…

In Rust, you have a Cow. It's smart and allows you to clone borrowed things, including things which can moo.
