    Not sure if that example helps. You can make any programming language hard to read without some basic formatting. The way I would write the sexpr would be: (impl (impl p (impl q r)…

    Yes, software is full of ambiguities but there are methods we use to handle them. OP emailed an outline wanting feedback, as any team player would do to iron out ambiguities, and r…

    I remember reading someone's shower thoughts that if the internet was completely safe there would be no need for Cloudflare, so it's in Cloudflare's best interest to keep the inter…

    I could imagine more sophisticated crawlers might be able to detect false information and then avoid those pages, but maybe that's more far fetched than how it comes across in my m…

    I agree that it's good they looked passed typical corporate reasons. I admit it's still strange to see. At the end of the day, companies like Microsoft are in the business of makin…

    Normally I don't think anyone would be losing their mind, but this is a Microsoft team creating a widely popular Microsoft product and they use a Google product (Go) instead of usi…

    I would argue that, yes, it is okay to expect your average person not to understand the law. Of course, it would be great if everyone understood everything (laws, in this case) but…

    Many products have been successful not because they bring new features to the market but because they make existing features trivial to use. UX is everything.

    Sounds like his talking backfired. "We need to regulate AI! No, not that much!" There's no way OpenAI will quit EU and leave it for competitors to take, easy bluff to call. The who…

    I had similar thoughts when I was messing with Mac OS 7 and 8 a few months ago. I was astounded at how featureful most software was. Microsoft Word version 5 had every feature I po…

    I’ve seen that and also seen that if you ask it for the nearest Mcdonald’s and then ask how it got that it will say it used your IP address. I haven’t seen anyone test it by spoofi…

    I second this. I’ve never used it, talk to friends, and yet it’s still sitting there at the top.

    Just as another data point, Substance tools can get even cheaper if you don’t care to have the whole collection. You can get the Substance 3D Texture pack which includes Painter, D…

    I would say yes and no. Yes, obviously the renderer is there but at the same time it's only doing what it was told to do. Taking Unity and Unreal as examples, you can make somethin…

    Putting the fact there’s cheaper options aside, who was this made for? They made an affordable computer supposedly for people without computers but it doesn’t have a screen, as if …

    I’m curious why you say that. I put clip ins on my bike and it made a world of a difference being able to pull and push while pedaling. Are there better options?

    I agree. Maybe there's some truth in the whole "brain plasticity" talking point but how long does it take a child to become fully comfortable with speaking and writing a language? …

    I don't doubt the number, but it does make me genuinely curious. How does this compare to other software? How much energy does running, for example, Facebook require? How much extr…

    It honestly looks like a low effort scam website.
