    Cold air is more dense, than hot air. In winter the difference between the room air temperature and outdoor air temperature is much bigger, so the density difference is much bigger…

    I've actually tried something like that, with two tools: * push("What I'm about to do"), * pop("What I've achieved"). "Push" marks the position in current context after the call an…

    It doesn't work in other languages. Searching the same in my native language (literal translation of "disregard definition") leads to (translated): > I understand. Write what exact…

    You will be right, but we already see this blame-shifting with "AI deleted my production"/"AI told me to do it" and washing it away with "AI can make mistakes, so double-check resp…

    > the correlation between $just_bought_thing and $will_buy_another is very, very high This looks like an argument against advertising the same thing. Why would you advertise someth…

    I'd add: since the AI is now referring the product "as if" it's an honest advice from a secondary source, they would be exempt from the usual advertisement rules. Effectively, if y…

    I'd assume they meant self-hosted inference.

    If it's a subsidiary - they can't capitalize on the big name in marketing. If it's a subscription - they don't get the "buy now, play never" customers from Steam. I think it will b…

    I think it's the right moment to acknowledge that Epic Games handled discontinuation of Unreal series well and responsibly [0] and how standalone servers were good for community. *…

    I don't believe there is a country in the world, where parking on bike lanes is explicitly allowed. Merging before turns and stops for drop/pickup/load/unload sure. But not parking…

    Yes, this is the bias we are looking for. If you can't quit vim, don't know how your frontend communicates with your backend, can't type on a regular qwerty keyboard without lookin…

    It's not about using vim, it's about when you had to sudoedit a config on a server you visited the first time, and it had vim as default EDITOR, so you have to know how to exit it …

    I'd say, their degree is BS. You can't finish Uni as a EE, without using a scope a few times.

    That rant is especially funny, because its author (probonopd) was responsible for some of the things he was ranting about, by ignoring pull requests to his projects, that would res…

    Your microwave is leaky, and/or not grounded, but since you don't experience static, I assume you have grounding at your house. Without grounding static and mains hum is quite noti…

    Why would they decide on "who", if nobody shows enough effort to signal on "what"? Whining doesn't count while the result is achieved, because "it works" and "don't fix it if it ai…

    That would affect sexual selection, which can have consequences for the following generations, if there will be any.
