I'm not sure I trust a source that says "just 70 tokens average, nearly half of Clojure (109 tokens)". There's no reason to add the phrase "nearly half of", and there's especially …

Maybe. But long before that, many other people have to deal with the consequences of a few others' disbelief in reality.

Re: KYC US is out of control on KYC as well. If you're a nomad, as in you don't have a permanent physical address, you cannot have a bank account. You cannot have credit cards. And…

Of all the billionaires in the world, what percent of them did something like this, vs the percent who reached that number from investments (and by investments I mean assets they p…

The new rich have warped concepts about how they "earned" their wealth. Very, very rarely does someone actually build or provide something so significant that it results in them pr…

I started teaching 1-on-1 on Preply (computer science, programming, and even career guidance). I work with students from age 8 to 40. I've given over 200 hours of teaching there. B…

You are exactly right. Regardless of whether AI is better than a human or not is irrelevant if the bad, unqualified corporate leaders are making rash silver bullet decisions that c…

As a software engineer and solution provider, I do not feel threatened by this. I do not fear that management will get tools like Mythos and then not need people like me. Most of t…

TONS of tools. Most written in Go. Several have API servers in addition to cli or TUI or web interfaces. The API interface to my apps makes LLM-driven development much faster. http…

Unless the hammer ultimately destroys the world. And it seems our escape rocket is no more.

I don’t possess the design vocabulary to properly roast the design, but it looks like an amateur’s first sketch at a “car of the future”. Or it look like a modern successor to the …

Unregulated capitalism eats everything, including eventually itself. There are other greed-based systems which also eat themselves, but we live in the era of capitalism as the vehi…

At this point, we should just appreciate Ruby and move on. In the AI age, other languages are better choices. Ruby is my favorite language, but I build with Go now. Or rather, I gu…

I can't answer for others, but IMO, Ruby is the most elegant and expressive general purpose programming language that has reached a significant level of maturity and large audience…

As I keep saying, the problem isn't the tools - it's the humans who don't know what they don't know ----- and assume that what they don't know is insignificant ----- and just plow …

Asked for the plaintext password, and then his brother made a “ database query on the EEOC database and then provided the password”. I wonder how many government dbs store password…

This is absolutely not going to teach a bully to be different; if anything, it may make them more cruel - and careful to avoid getting caught.

The problem is not AI. The problem is still very human: the humans in charge don’t know what they don’t know, and they believe that whatever they imagine is true. They also often b…

No mention of exercise. Shame. But for staring at walls, I like to do that in the sauna. My mind sorts out so much stuff in that hot room that is like magic. Showers used to be tha…

My anecdotal experience: TLDR: regular sauna seems to have no effect on my resting HR. Extended high HR cardio definitely does. I became a huge fan of sauna time (15-20 minutes at …

Most day to day apps and websites should be boring and usable, not truly unique or mind-blowing. In fact, humans waste countless hours trying to figure out what is what and how thi…

Some people are just really good at leveraging others. Leverage enough other people, and you can get rich and or powerful. And the more you leverage, the more you get. A lot of cur…

Those of us unfamiliar with Bevy can deduce what it might be, but it would be really nice if your introduction included at least a link titled "Bevy game engine" which links to bev…
