Never said it is easy, it's just much easier than immigrating to the US.

Legally immigrating to the US (getting a residence permit) is either a matter of luck (lotteries), extraordinary skills, very long waiting lists, or a combination of these.

On the contrary, immigrating to the EU is "just" finding a job on the local market and applying for some paperwork. And the EU does not discriminate you on the basis of the country where you've been born.
Reporters doing investigations, research and on- and off-the-record interviews must be a value add to the content I presume. And also a value-add to society at large.

I went to a top 10 US university for CS, and while I completely agree with your disdain for things like 'write html classes', I experienced pretty much the equal but opposite. There was a relatively widespread disdain for application vs theory, to the point that I have no doubt that the overwhelming majority of my graduating peers could not write a Tetris clone, even graphics aside - I just mean the logic/architecture.

I actually have an amusing anecdote there. In one lower level class the professor ended up asking about how to convert a lower case string to an upper case one, or vice versa. I immediately chimed in with the right answer - you flip the 5th bit. This is literally how ASCII was intentionally designed. Capital and lower start at 65, and are separated by 32, so changing the case is a single bitflip. The same even works in unicode english characters where they're still separated by 32, though in this case it was not a unicode input string anyhow.

He just about lost his shit trying to mock me and my 'inelegant hacky solutions' in front of everybody. It didn't bother me in the least because I knew I was right, but later (perhaps after he looked it up?) he actually went out of his way to find me outside of class and sincerely apologize. I just found it all pretty amusing. But if anything it really emphasizes the overly embraced gulf between theory and practice at higher tier institutions, or at least mine. And FWIW this was an algorithms class which should ostensibly be 100% about practical application.
Generally it is the next stage for LLMs, learning from interactions, not just human imitation.
I disagree, I did a lot of lab experiments I'd never be able to do by myself. Also used a lot of industrial software that I would never afford licenses for. Plus even knowing what to look into would require so much self discipline that it'd be very hard to replicate.

Who is going to sit down for 2-3 years (assuming you're faster by yourself to help your argument) and self learn with the same intensity, giving themselves the same amount of homework and projects?
> CAD users don't necessarily need things to be open source... Open source is not in and of itself a goal.

While there are certainly challenges to open source development, there are no downsides to using open source software. It works just as well for people who don't know what it is or means and just as well for people who are indifferent to it. There are great reasons to avoid proprietary software, though, and they're even stronger when you're talking about SaaS (as we increasingly are nowadays, and specifically are in this case). CAD software is an area where many users have /already/ been burned by proprietary systems changing their offerings /after/ they've invested hundreds of hours learning and using their platform.

I'm aware I'm in the minority, but open source is absolutely a goal in and of itself for me. I've been using open source software exclusively for a very long time.
> Yes, but only one side has the guns.

Aside from the unnecessary inflammatory injection of firearms, I'd like to clarify and say "only one side thinks only they have the guns". Not that this should matter in a civilized country.

It's still going through the same telemetry action, it just omits the actual character you typed. And yes, it is character by character. That collection (eg, the timestamp you hit the character, channel/person it was to, etc) is the inefficiency causing your typing to slow.

If it was a straight text box that they polled contents of _occasionally_ or after you hit 'send', it would be a much better user experience.
When I have a complex paper to read I will spread it out on the floor. A single page at a time is too limiting, I want to be able to see page 5 and page 12 at the same time.
The edge within this context means running a server close, in terms of Internet latency, to users. For example, if a user if sending a request from Germany, then the response should come from a server running in say Frankfurt, not the US. There are now many providers that allow devels to deploy services at many different locations at once, and to ensure that client requests are routed to the closest available location. An understandable source of confusion is that wasm comes from the browser world, but it's also possible to run it as standalone (no browser) server code.

Also not to be confused with the term edge within the context of IoT/embedded, where the edge is devices running at the very edge of the Internet, e.g., factory floors, trucks, etc.

I was recently looking at starter cars for my daughter as a college graduation present, and I think you'd be surprised how far down-market those features have moved.

A brand new Toyota Corolla is $22k and comes with both. For older cars, you can get a nice stereo for $300. If you aren't an audiophile, probably $100.
You might find this article interesting food for thought: https://www.nytimes.com/2024/05/22/business/gen-z-college-st...

> Some students talk about turning to a different career later on, after they’ve made enough money. “Nowadays, English concentrators often say they’re going into finance or management consulting for a couple of years before writing their novel,” said James Wood, a Harvard professor of the practice of literary criticism.

> Mr. Desai said all of this logic goes, “‘Make the bag so you can do good in the world, make the bag so you can go into retirement, make the bag so you can then go do what you really want to do.’”

> But this “really underestimates how important work is to people’s lives,” he said. “What it gets wrong is, you spend 15 years at the hedge fund, you’re going to be a different person. You don’t just go work and make a lot of money, you go work and you become a different person.”
"I stopped checking Facebook so frequently."
"I probably managed 4-6 hours a day".

Sounds like a real A player.
Great because I would delete Steam if it ever did happen.
My phone plan costs $14/month and could power music indefinitely at high speeds. Notably, it's something I already have and already pay for.

$300 more for a new stereo is still a lot to many people. Plus, if I buy beater cars but put a nice stereo in them I'm at risk of theft. And I have to pay install fees again if I buy my next beater.
It's common to talk about one incidence of anger being expressed versus years of anger being suppressed, while most people do a mixture of expression and suppression, and there are ways to reduce anger without suppression.

Of course, sometimes how a preference is expressed for suppression or expression comes from an underlying personality type and philosophy— is a heuristic or justification for personal preference.

Many athletes and actors practice a brief expression of frustration followed by conscious breathing as a way to reduce and channel anger, rather than suppressing it or giving into a feeling of being out of control. Behaving from a place of being out of control tends to be where a lot of damage in life is caused.

Another popular point of view is someone who expresses anger saying it is truth, as Harry Truman responded to someone who said "Give 'em hell. Harry!", He replied "I just tell them the truth and they think it's hell."

A family member who has this issue has many stories such as this one: "I parked in front of the restaurant and before I could get out this guy I don't know was at my window screaming at me. I don't know why this always happens to me." When you spend some time with this person, you find that they have poor impulse control and lack of awareness of how their choices affect others. The reason these things "always happen to them" is because they cause it to happen through their behavior.

A regulation requiring companies to "let consumers decide inputs/outputs" would be much more burdensome than merely standardizing one specific connector per ~decade. With the compactness of modern devices, they'd basically have to spin a new board for every connector type a consumer might what. But you're right - it would be kind of neat if I could have Google make me a new Pixel 8 with the bespoke data connector from my old SPH-A580, so I'd finally once again have a use for that cable that's just sitting around in a box. This is what you meant, right?

Wow. I'm the creator of Calva and I can tell you that I do not have an opinion on how to use it. I would never say something like that, and now I wonder what I could have said that was interpreted this way...

By default Calva Paredit overrides three or so keyboard shortcuts. This is to help the users to not accidentally delete brackets, which in turn keeps the support questions down about broken Clojure code. I have tried to make it super easy to disable these overrides. There's a command for it. There's a button in the toolbar for it, and there's a setting for it.

There's also a setting for removing all Paredit bindings, even those that are not overriding any default ones. (This setting is for people who use Paredit, but want to provide their own shortcuts entirely.)

The premise that the speed of light remains an absolute limit even if warp drives are possible, while depressing, makes sense.

The article didn't mention whether this version of the Alcubierre drive would be useful for intra-system travel, although I suspect it would shake out that the energy requirements would be so great as to make it less efficient than regular old rockets. But a Cowboy Bebop style portal network that gets us around the solar system at even a fraction of C would still be useful.

As an aside, Google now says Mars is 3.5 light years away, thanks to an obviously AI generated "expert answer" from a site I've never even heard of. An excerpt:

It would take around 3.5 years to get to Mars at the speed of light, but current technology can only achieve
a fraction of that speed, making it impossible for humans to travel that fast. Therefore, spacecraft take about
seven months to reach Mars.

I really, really hate AI.

Road grit has basically no constraints. They put in whatever is cheap to dilute the expensive cement or asphalt as much has possible. Old concrete is used because it's cheap, not because it's special in some way.

If old concrete can be turned into new cement, that is extremely valuable compared to using it as grit.

There are some logistics and energy questions, though. Transporting old concrete to the nearest steel plant could be too expensive to be worth it. And arc-furnace steel plants are still the exception, not the rule.

> Q&A platforms have been crucial for the online help-seeking behav-
ior of programmers. However, the recent popularity of ChatGPT is
altering this trend. Despite this popularity, no comprehensive study
has been conducted to evaluate the characteristics of ChatGPT’s an-
swers to programming questions. To bridge the gap, we conducted
the first in-depth analysis of ChatGPT answers to 517 programming
questions on Stack Overflow and examined the correctness, consis-
tency, comprehensiveness, and conciseness of ChatGPT answers.
Furthermore, we conducted a large-scale linguistic analysis, as well
as a user study, to understand the characteristics of ChatGPT an-
swers from linguistic and human aspects. Our analysis shows that
52% of ChatGPT answers contain incorrect information and 77%
are verbose. Nonetheless, our user study participants still preferred
ChatGPT answers 35% of the time due to their comprehensiveness
and well-articulated language style. However, they also overlooked
the misinformation in the ChatGPT answers 39% of the time. This
implies the need to counter misinformation in ChatGPT answers to
programming questions and raise awareness of the risks associated
with seemingly correct answers.

I don't get very angry generally, but this is something that I consider a mild fault. There are some things and situations where the appropriate thing is to be angry (injustice, harming innocents, etc). Of course, many people let their anger push them to behave badly, but the anger itself can be appropriate and can even help you take actions that need to be taken. From the Christian tradition, Psalms 4:4 is sometimes translated "In your anger, do not sin". Anger by itself is not necessarily sin, but what people do with their anger often is.
