This looks like the merge method used by Gerrit which I've missed. Good to know that it's now available on GH!

One could also call this the Social Network of Things (SNoT).

Astute observation! I’ve had a similar issue with the Business Model Canvas which, while very useful in visualizing a business’ model, leaves me hanging and a bit uncomfortable bec…

As a non-native English speaker, the issue that I've had with the dual meaning of "comprise" is that I was first introduced to it via the "is comprised of" usage which resulted in …

I think the additional liability from that event would be much less because it would be computed from the interest payments that the bank eventually owes the depositors. So given a…

I wonder if it’s correct to also think about it in this way: idle cash devalues over time. Coupled with interest (no matter how small) that they pay out to their depositors, this e…

Still waiting for the day someone out there adds some drag-and-drop capability in a Mermaid based UI similar to https://sequencediagram.org/

Your question aligns with the argument I'm trying to make which is: If it turns out that our understanding of ToM is wrong, should we be making proclamations about--whether for or …

> Something that is able to simulate having a theory of mind sufficiently well does actually have a theory of mind. That presupposes that our existing tools for detecting the prese…

At some point, when multiple components (including the LLM) have been connected to form a system that exhibits "knowing" (the way humans do), wouldn't the "intelligence" be distrib…

Step 0: Understand that “DevOps” is a really bad name for “Industrial Engineering principles applied to IT.”

I still haven’t made the transition to Neovim in favor of stability, but here’s part of my dotfiles repo that installs all the plugins that I use with Vim: https://github.com/relax…

To expand on your assertion, I’m sharing a link to a framework that I drafted a few years back for evaluating an accelerator (referred to as an incubator in the paper): https://dri…

https://relaxdiego.com/ Just recently (finally) added functionality that auto-tests the code snippets in my articles. I talked about it in this article: https://relaxdiego.com/2022…

JB Rainsberger would like a word with you :-) https://blog.thecodewhisperer.com/permalink/integrated-tests...

I tend to go by how much anxiety a piece of code might give me once it goes to production. If I expect the level of anxiety to breach a certain threshold (usually when there’s too …

...but aren't those tools a representation of the additional knowledge that the industry accumulated over time?

If there’s no organizational barrier (e.g. microservices architecture, separate repos with strict permissions) that will prevent devs from leaking abstractions across technical bou…

Both sides of the aisle in this debate appear to hold a common assumption that our current method of sharing knowledge (i.e. written and spoken words) are the best methods that we …

It doesn't address the Trust On First Use (TOFU) issue.

Nice trolling. You almost got me there. You have my respect! ;-)

I don't understand why commenters are so hung up on the "unless you're working with absolute bozos" part. That sentence is irrelevant compared to the rest of the comment. The three…

If you already have ~2 months worth of data, why not just use that to plot a distribution curve? Seems to me that the monte carlo simulation that the article describes is really ju…

This is the OCR engine used by Mayan EDMS[1] which I've used since 2018. The reliability has been topnotch. [1] https://www.mayan-edms.com/
