This is exactly how I've achieved this on Windows in the past. However, since writing that solution, I have come to understand that utilizing AppDomains (for .Net Framework) and As…

Very much this. One of the best accounts of this progression I’ve read is the “AI Superpowers..” book by Kai-Fu Lee. China held the “Knock-off/cheap copycat” moniker in the 90s, 00…

How much of that increase can also be attributed to distracted driving (ie driving under the influence of mobile phones)?

That show ages better every single day.

The title of this article made me think that paying down traditional tech debt due to bugs or whatever is straightforward. Software with tech debt and/or bugs that incorporates AI …

Does iCloud mitigate this? It’s always confused me that iCloud is intended only as a data sync and not back-up… If one device goes down and the rest still work, could you still acc…

Very nicely written article. Personally, I find RAG (and more abstractly, vector search) the only mildly interesting development in the latest LLM fad, and have always felt that LL…

I tend to agree, the flexibility that non-statically typed languages (i.e. Python) offer on smaller-scale projects (very) quickly diverges to chaos on larger-scale. With scale, rul…

“Can its world model BE USED to produce…” “Can it BE USED to manipulate…” FTFY

IMHO, the downfall is singularly: ad revenue. Monetizing your website/app/product indirectly in this way has been the sole source of many (all?) negative emergent features of moder…

One of my favorite books of all time.. I have gifted around 5 copies: https://www.amazon.com/Idea-Factory-Great-American-Innovatio...

Three books come to my mind on this topic: 1) Atomic Physics and Human Knowledge by Niels Bohr - and to think this was a series of speeches is pretty intense… still haven’t read it…

+1 - went to pick up a copy, but they were all checked out.

To be fair, I don’t have any examples of “good practices” readily in-hand. However, I did try to address why I thought others were less impacted by this problem in the second half …

Much the same way you can have all the best gear and still fail - Google’s primary strength seems to be the DeepMind group. I’m not affiliated with Google, but IMHO the reason they…
