    Installing subterranean cable is presumably a choice right? Couldn't it be above ground?

    I have heard "the poor type safety" argument from writers of strongly typed languages for many many years. Having written js and python for a large amount of my carrier I can count…

    The feeling of being an outsider because you don't know the acronym is just as real in non-public settings. The new guy on the team for example. There's a real feeling that you sho…

    There's really a feeling now pushing back against learning in general. The feeling is that it is pointless since technology would just do it for you. When I started learning Chines…

    It's about not understanding someone because you haven't been in their shoes. Even if they don't understand themselves, it doesn't make the way they feel about their own past someh…

    They will never be able to actually have human experience. I think that's the point. It's not that they won't be able to pretend that they have had human experience, it is that the…

    Until you have to deal with bed and breakfast rules for RSUs. Good luck getting free software to understand that. There are a couple of open source attempts but they are skeleton a…

    At certain times of day the London underground deliberately directs people to longer paths around the stations to alleviate congestion. This kind of thing could be a health benefit…

    There's an industry wide deficit of tests for AI right now. It's not just this tool, it's everything you add to your code base or your development flow that uses AI. Nobody had tes…

    The real question is did the hardware stores back in the day care that the miners were digging for gold?

    Right but they also state they have never implemented TURN which IMO is a marker of WebRTC expertness. (I haven't btw, just the WebRTC experts I know absolutely have written or wor…

    I think it's a reasonable statue. But does anyone else think it's a bit obvious, more so than his other work? Like there is no doubt on the meaning at all, it's all right there on …
