    Love the decision tbh. Social science does not deserve money. There has been too much fraud going on and I'm not sure about the benefits compared to hard science or medical science…

    Paying tax is normal for most companies. I am not sure why the us is being the slave of these companies and threatening retaliation. Apparently it wants to be the only one to take …

    I dont think it's going to be that important. Different people have different learning styles but also vastly different capacities making this really difficult to research accurate…

    the American justice system is flawed. It's mob justice that was only fit for the 1700s when there was nothing better. Or maybe there was,I wasn't around. Untrained people can't de…

    Sounds like you have been to the Rijks and nowhere else. Lots of old paintings of all kinds of scenes hang in lots of museums all over this country. Not a huge museum goer but this…

    I guess this does give some insights. Using a more space efficient language for your codebase will mean more functionality in the ais context window when working with Claude and co…

    It's a really expensive piece of software. They do not publish their prices because of it. I don't think it's reasonable to market such products onto your average dev because of it…

    Deadline by the end of the sprint is not how we typically approach things even in a scrum context. I'm not sure whether there's any words about it in the scrum dogma.

    If you're enjoying it well enough this is typically not a concern. I do take breaks when the program is building though. Or when I'm not feeling it. Please don't try to replace you…

    In the sense of the article artists have always done their best to cater to the taste of the people who might pay them. At least from the 16th century. They were typically paid for…

    When I read an intro to game dev the first thing I read should be how to draw something to the screen not a discussion of design patterns. I get that lispers might like that but fo…
