    But you could just be one of thousands of bots targeting the same sources you’re scraping.

    I agree with everything you said. I’m simply playing devil’s advocate, because engineers can believe one thing, but until employers believe it, it doesn’t matter much. I’m also not…

    Again, unless you’re the employer, then you’re getting paid by someone that cares more about productivity than whether you think LLMs produce incorrect code. All that matters is wh…

    At some point, household robots — once they become mainstream — can do things around the home that you depend on, and if/when they break down, prevent you from being able to work/g…

    Vehicles, when first invented, were 100% a luxury, not a necessity. They only became a “necessity” once they went mainstream and the world started evolving with vehicles becoming a…

    1. I feel like “trial and error” is often not a great way to solve puzzles. If you can brute force your way to a solution, that’s usually a sign of poor puzzle design. To be clear,…

    Rather than counting mistakes, just allow mistakes, and just not let the puzzle get solved until it’s complete without mistakes. This is how most of Simon Tatham’s puzzles work, an…

    Side note: I miss SSX. Such a great franchise, and sad that EA Big shut down (and that no one else picked it up). Tricky was probably my favorite, but they were all great.
