TBH no I don’t think that’s the case. I think they are actually approaching this space with care. Whether it’s social media, search, or ChatGPT there is an obvious human-race scale impact that I believe google recognizes that the “disrupters” disregard.
> There's some value in finding an approach that works for everyone as an educator instead of one that works for Most if you can do that, I think.

"Dumbing down" really seems to be an apt description of this. It's interesting that the US school math scores started to go down after the Common Core implementation, after decades of gradual rise: https://nces.ed.gov/fastfacts/display.asp?id=38
An example from the software world:

Back in the misty days of Not Too Long Ago, there was a Jira add-on called nFeed. It allowed you to hook external databases to Jira using SQL queries and display the query results for users. Note I said display but not search for, which became a sticking point: The nontechnical users could see all the data from the Microsoft CRM internal database (and getting data out of that was another saga, but not quite of this kind) but not search for it using normal Jira search functions.

(Before I go on, I'll state that nFeed is now Elements Connect, which supports this use case natively. Basic search is a "use case" which must be explicitly "supported" because Jira.)

This was intolerable. This was not something you could fix from within nFeed. This was something I had to fix.

Fortunately, I had an Idea.

The Idea: I could create shadow fields to mirror the contents of the nFeed fields, such that those fields would be normal Jira text fields which Jira could search. I just needed a way to automatically synchronize the nFeed fields and the text fields, and a way to hide those shadow fields from the nontechnical users.

The System D stuff: nFeed used the Velocity template engine to allow you to generate the HTML to display in the Jira tickets. Velocity didn't know HTML, CSS, or JavaScript from Sweet Fanny Adams. Therefore, I could inject all three of those things directly into the ticket using the templates. I used JavaScript to read the text field from the displayed page, compare it to the text from the fresh SQL query, and, if they didn't match, use XMLHttpRequest to update the backend using the published REST API, which succeeded because it ran in the security context of the user viewing the page. A bit of inline CSS to hide the shadow text fields as long as they were beneath their corresponding nFeed field on the page and I was done.

Mostly done. I still had to ensure I wrote the JavaScript without curly brackets, as those were sacred to Velocity, and I fought with correct text quoting and unquoting for a little bit. Something I couldn't fix was Jira's own logging functionality: Every time a user with permissions to edit a ticket viewed it, the JavaScript might trigger and Jira would record that as them editing the ticket. That got me some confused support calls, but it was still better than what I would have gotten had I thrown up my hands. After all, I was the one who suggested nFeed to begin with.

Pretty good for something I cooked up the day I found the original problem, in the period of time between finding the problem and reporting it all to my manager.
I agree 100%. Xi has already stated at the start of his 3rd term that the 10 year goal is reunification with Taiwan, peacefully or not.
It can be simultaneously true that a warning can be a barrier to adoption of your software product versus a competitor, and that a warning is not an effective barrier for a user who thinks they're installing an unreleased video game or going to receive millions of dollars of crypto from foreign royalty.
The whole point is that there would be no app review for independent apps.

It's not a technical change in who distributes the software, it's a radical change that results in developers being able to give apps to users without being in a contractual relationship with Apple period.

Issue with a lot of these and switching regulators is off chip inductors, which take up space. In small form factors, SOCs etc, you need to use charge pumps and LDOs for internal analog/mixed signal voltages.
That's funny, I guess it completely depends on context how that might be interpreted. If she had a reputation for being a leech, negative, but otherwise I think it would be kind of funny or a compliment. At least I'm doing the food right

I used to think the same way, but not anymore. The amount and variety of attacks on the devices have increased too much in the last years. The device could be encrypted, money could be stolen, some malware could sit silently and do surveillance for who knows.
I always wanted to install software on my iPhone without the manufacturing company deciding what I can and can not have (according to californian standards!), but would I let my kids do that nowadays? No way! Stay on the app stores, also on Windows and MacOS is the first line of defense. It‘s sad but the safest approach.
Regular users don‘t need to install software on their own anymore, the same as they don‘t need to put processors, storage and Monitors together or install a sound card.
I presume doing the latter would raise serious CFAA concerns.

Totally, I think one of the major dynamics of our age has been a general shift toward a new "epistemic regime" in which the vast majority of "truth making" procedures have become statistical in nature. If you look at history, we tend to move through different dominant modes of reasoning about the world: deduction, induction....I think our particular contemporary experience is one in which the new dominant mode of reasoning about everything is statistical and probabilistic. In many areas it's a boon, in others it's tragic. (the statistical treatment of human beings is one obvious case; trying to orient education psychological problems according to what the mean demands pretty much ensures everyone loses (gold star students lose out on opportunities, less gifted students start to get some help, but not nearly the case-based, customized help they really ought to)
> irreducible complexity in the nature of the eyes

There have been several papers published that outline how eyes could have evolved via a series of incremental steps.

I don't have references handy[1], but the process is thought to go something like this:

1. The earliest, primitive animals were tiny. Think small worms and the like.

2. Soft-bodied creatures are always at least somewhat translucent to light, at least to a certain depth: a few millimeters at least. Just shine a torch through the thin part of your hand between your thumb and forefinger! Similarly, this is why you know it is daylight or not even with your eyelids closed.

3. If a nerve in the brain of a primitive creature contains a chemical that is both neurologically active and light sensitive, then even without any "eye structure" at all, it can detect lightness and darkness. Melatonin is thought to be a candidate for this chemical. This can happen by accident but is immediately useful for seeking shelter, escaping a "sudden shadow" (predator), detecting day/night cycles, etc...

4. If those nerves migrate closer to the surface of the skin, then they receive more light, and the sensitivity becomes directional. The most obvious thing is for a spot to develop on top of the head, which is still seen in many creatures today!

5. Having multiple such spots over an area, sensitivity increases.

6. If that light-sensitive patch becomes concave[2], then this provides crude directional sensitivity. The more concave it becomes, the more accurate the direction sense, until it invaginates completely to form a cavity with a small hole as the pupil -- a pinhole camera. There are creatures living today with similar primitive eyes!

7. If the cavity becomes filled with a transparent variant of the skin, then it can be protected from filling up with dirt, etc...

8. If this transparent flesh has uneven index of refraction, it can focus light. This is a primitive lens.

9. Etc...

You get the idea. Essentially, every step can occur incrementally, providing benefits at every step, and these steps are littered throughout the tree of life, we just have to put the steps back in order to see the timeline.

[1] You can check the references in the Wiki article if you like: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Evolution_of_the_eye

[2] Convex also works, and then you end up with insect eyes!
Your problem is thinking that the issue with crypto is primarily technological. It is not, it's mostly social.

Same reason why you don't see people arguing about the technical details of the slot machine in gambling regulation. However innovative the mechanism is, the ill is social and that's how it should be regulated. Or similarly, the regulation around alcohol are centered around limiting the social ills (like drunk drivers plowing into unsuspecting people). I am perfectly happy with crypto getting a similar regulation, with Coinbase getting similar terms, disclosure requirements, and responsibilities as the sports betting sites. What I am not ok with is Coinbase shilling tokens as "finance of the future" when it's really just the dumping ground of the latest of Anderssen Horowitzs' scam coins.
when software first came out, us electrical engineers don't think this is "engineering" either, basically it is all people creating a imaginary machinary for other people operating in their imaging world.
If you're new to cryptocurrency, you may feel overwhelmed by the jargon and technical details. However, understanding the basics of cryptocurrency is not as difficult as it might seem. This guide will provide a beginner's overview of cryptocurrency, how it works, why it's become popular, what cryptocurrency mining is, etc.
In practice it is to come up with a solution to a problem and follow through with it regardless of what it takes to do so or how unconventional the solution may have to be.

Think of it as a philosophy or a resolve as much as a verb.
To be clear, my comment was basically about being your own destructive force, less so about dealing with real perceived judgement.

Unemployment can be inherently isolating. If you surround yourself with status-seeking judgemental people, that's probably not a resilient social circle, but you shouldn't project your own negative perception of yourself and try to preemptively avoid rejection
I think you're missing the point that it is defined, the current html5 spec says that <title> implies the existence of <head>, <body> implies the end of <head>, body tags imply the end of <head> and the start of <body> etc.

HTML5 is not XHTML.

<!DOCTYPE html>
<title>Title
<h1>Heading

expands to

<!DOCTYPE html>
<head><title>Title</title></head>
<body><h1>Heading</h1></body>
I’ll bet using ChatGPT for this will be more accurate at this point than human analysis and assumptions. So as to not waste time and effort, here you go; I’m sure this is much faster, efficient and I wouldn’t be surprised, others are already doing this:

Using a therapist ai as an example:

ChatGPT, I want you to help me create a series of prompts that I can use to better tune your model in order to serve humans.

The role I am trying to instill for your model would be that of an ai friend who cares about the interactive user. You will be friendly, caring, supportive but most of all, serve as a teacher in order for the user to grow intelligence.
I dont think Namecheap is bad, abut also not the best. I have a Namecheap account but steering away from it because;

- Login system is annoying. Needs a longer cookie system on the 2FA, and then only use 2FA when doing significant changes, not smaller day to day stuff.

- SSL support isn't great for free options.

- Customer support hasn't been the best.

- cPanel interface is an old one or something not as good as the alternate Im increasingly using.

Actually, in a way, it is. All Microsoft has to do is revoke your application's signing certificate and Windows Defender will prevent it from running on Windows computers.

Apple does the same thing with Notarization and Gatekeeper on macOS. If they choose to revoke your signing certificate, Gatekeeper will prevent your software from running on macOS.

That means if you do, say or compete with something that Microsoft or Apple doesn't like, they can prevent your apps from running on their platforms.
I’m thinking of cases like

System.arraycopy(src, srcPos, // from
dest, destPos, len) // to

where I want to show the parallel relationships between src/srcPos and dest/destPos. Blind tools don’t know to do this, they either emit one long line or waste seven lines.

Tools also won’t know how to format a DSL well at all, which has already been a problem with Spark jobs in Scala.
> having set phrases where you use that vocab ends up actually giving you at least _some_ scenarios where you can use them.

Duolingo does exactly that though. It introduces vocabulary first, then introduces complete sentences using the words and the complexity keeps ramping up from there. As I progress through the japanese course it's becoming increasingly difficult to remember all the kanji but it still surprises me that I can figure out the long sentences it throws at me, sometimes without even thinking.

> It's so much easier to understand something than to say it yourself!

I guess. I think I can confidently count to 20 in japanese though. No one's evaluating me on my pronunciation so I don't know how good it is. I like to imagine it's at least ok since japanese phonetics are close to portuguese.
Something should be said about living off credit cards. Don't borrow, or if you must, do it with care:

- Don't cash advance from your credit card. If you must, do it with one credit card, then balance transfer to another. Interest for cash advance is usually very high. But you need a balance transfer card, I doubt you will be offered one if unemployed.

As far as credit rating: the most important bills are loan payments (credit cards, car loans and mortgage). Forget about rent:

Maybe you need to break a lease- it's a good idea to talk to your landlord. You are better off telling them, than not paying. They might let you break it without dinging your credit. Really once they find out that you can't pay, they want you gone as fast as possible so that they can rent to someone else. If you miss payments, they are missing income, in theory a much worse situation for them.

The issue with such a statement is that the terms can and do mean different things to different people. I probably have a similar definition of computer and application as you, but many people, maybe the majority, may not.

For one thing they might think of a phone as a fundamentally different thing from a 'computer' with a different role. In fact I strongly suspect this is the majority view.

Within that people probably think of an 'application' as fundamentally a pre-screened, pre-approved, piece of software to enable some function specifically on the phone and within the phone's ecosystem. Not as any arbitrary piece of software. In fact that might all be seen as a feature, not a limitation, in the majority of people's eyes. Again I strongly suspect that is the case.
Thanks for the explanation. Removing barriers to employment will help more employers be open to hiring teenagers. I’m all for protecting children, but expanding job opportunities is also a good thing.
> What are you even trying to say?

Shares generally give you two benefits, one is a share of the up/downsides, and another is a right of governance in the company. The way employee share distributions are done right now means employees get a tiny fraction of the first and none of the second, even though they are a large stakeholder in the company's future.
> Not to mention such a disparity in feature between different regions is pretty huge.

And at the same time not at all that uncommon. If you are in a market outside of the US I'm certain you will have experienced this first hand more than once. I have.
I don't know if TDD is effective. It seems effective on my single-person projects, less so on multi-person projects.

However, TDD is pretty effective in working with chatGPT. I always tell it to write the tests first.
The security on the iPhone is from the app sandbox, not from app review.

It's trivial to get something past app review (eg. look at casino apps that were disguised as games)

On the Mac, staying on the Mac App Store makes sense because it is the easiest way to enforce you only install sandboxed apps.

On iOS, that's not going to be necessary, because every app on iOS is sandboxed.
The blue checkmarks were a large part of his original beef with Twitter.

Charging for blue checkmarks was always a key part of his proposal for "fixing" Twitter. Backing down on that aspect would be equivalent to admitting that he was wrong.
Exactly, they could have added an extra wire type to signify messages without costing any extra bytes. Nothing is stopping ProtoBuf from being self describing except incompetence.
It's actually not a win-win, because even if I agreed with your beliefs about the "lgbt craze", I wouldn't move to Florida. The law is so vaguely worded, and the plaintiffs in these lawsuits have virtually zero consequence for lying.

Most parents are probably fine (liberal or conservative), but it only takes one dishonest parent to make a teacher's life very unpleasant. I suspect a lot of teachers see the writing on the wall and are getting the hell out of Florida.
See how web changed the last 30s. You no longer need a compatible PC/Mac to talk to your friend.
> they will at some point kneecap or retire their products. Anything to save their ad business

Why not just insert ads into Bard? Have the AI recommend products or sites? It enables a whole new level of embedded content.
That would actually be illegal under the DMA:

[...]gatekeepers shall:

[...](f) refrain from requiring business users or end users to subscribe to or register with any other core platform services identified pursuant to Article 3 or which meets the thresholds in Article 3(2)(b) as a condition to access, sign up or register to any of their core platform services identified pursuant to that Article

"Operating systems" is part of the "core platform services" definition. Locking the use of iOS or sideloading capabilities behind an Apple ID (another "core platform service") would be a violation of the provision.
I had always presumed this was the reason, and just assumed that crustaceans, insects, etc. didn't have bilaterally crossed nervous systems. However, the linked article mentions nematodes also having a nervous system with bilaterally crossed connections, so it can't be the entire story (and it seems my assumptions about crustaceans, insects, etc. is wrong).
I will say, having been the guy saying he really enjoyed StS in the sibling comment, that the devs of StS have gone on record saying that they probably would have chosen another library other than libGDX if they did it again. My understanding is that it’s simply the same reason as I mentioned in my comment - libGDX simply isn’t used enough and that’s a ding against it when you can go and use unity/Mono and have a thousand stack overflow questions for every one stackoverflow libgdx question.

Edit: apparently unity has been off mono for about 3 years now. Tangential but interesting
This seems to be the case for UPS store returns as well. It was faster than any Kohl’s return due to the size of the store (and not positioning it near the back like multiple Kohl’s locations I’ve visited). I assume the GP comment was describing the work done by the UPS store employees behind the scenes to package and ship returns?
I see your point but it's a difference in kind. The general trend in the development of higher level languages has been to allow user to encode common patterns in ever terser sequences of symbols (e.g. no need to write your own iterator, the compiler will do it for you). However, these terse descriptions of a pattern are still deterministic and precise.

This isn't quite the same as using natural languages to try and get a machine to guess at the program you want. I think it'd be a shame if we abandoned the trajectory of ever-higher programming languages in favor of relying on LLM's to generate roughly what we want in existing, "boilerplate heavy" languages. There are quite literally lines of research in programming languages right now that formally and in an incredibly terse fashion, allow you to generate provably correct software from a short, formal meta-specification. To abandon that in favor of LLM generation strategies would be a clear loss in my opinion.

LLM's have their uses of course, but at the moment we're definitely in a period of major overfitting and absolute lack of reason when it comes to the application and development of these tools.
A hack has connotations of laziness though. This is the opposite.

The constraints of the situation may call for a ‘hack’ but it’s not an expression of laziness. It is a necessary action provided the circumstances.
It’s not my job to make you write exactly what I would have. I don’t care about an extra blank line, and I expect a reviewer to accept that it doesn’t matter. I draw the line at layout that is misleading about the code (e.g., dangling else that doesn’t parse the way it’s indented).
Yep, I don't think my French even compares to a primary school student. I just haven't been learning long enough, and I speak to no native speakers on a daily basis. I've probably been learning for less than a year. I think A2 is generous, I think I'm still learning at an A1 level.

I'm hoping after 2 to 4 years, I'll have a bit more understanding.

Thank you for your insights!

It's not about being lazy. It's that (like government voting) people try to confuse and mislead you with HOA voting, too. Like they bundle a bunch of things together and try to sell you the changes you like, while burying the ones that hurt you deep inside the text so you don't notice them. Or making the rules obscure enough that you don't realize their full implications until it's too late. Or, when they come to your door and ask for your vote to changes to the HOA rules, they (at first glance, quite graciously, with a smile!) request that you hold off on voting so they can discuss your concern and find a way to incorporate it into their changes... except it later turns out the package is all-or-nothing (changing it would invalidate existing votes!), and their real intention is to prevent you from voting against the initiative until the deadline passes, so that they could gather the minimum number of favorable votes more easily.
