I live in an apartment building whose walls don't really attenuate RF at all. And like most of the building I have a Samsung "smart" TV. So most evenings I get three or four screencast requests from neighbors' phones that I have to deny. That's annoying enough but it also stops whatever I'm watching in the process.

The manual didn't include instructions for turning off Bluetooth, and when I called Samsung they said you in fact can't turn it off. I could simply pull the antenna, I guess, but it seems to be integrated with the WiFi so then I couldn't watch any streaming.

I ended up changing the BT device name to "STOP USING THIS ONE" but apparently nobody reads it because I still get the connection requests daily.
I agree with you but maybe for different reasons. (Depends on how you defined embeddable I suppose). The primary purpose of a scripting language for gamedev is for mod support. If end users can't open the scripts up in notepad, play around and have them change the game, you're adding friction to this.
Would be great to live in a world where nearly every voter that saw the NSC response and then the Hegseth response could see the clear contradiction in responses and then make the correct interpretation that whenever these clowns are crying about hoaxes and lying media they are full of shit and 100% in CYA-mode so you should never trust them when they do this on any topic.

Of course, we don't live in that world.
This is one of those times it's probably good to remind people that the way the tallow comes in is often in chemical tankers. They'll make it to the agricultural docks sooner or later among their rotation between chemical plants when they get here.

You're depending on the integrity of the ship's personnel as to how well they cleaned the vessel compartments overseas before loading the tallow, when the odds are extremely high that the previous cargo in one or more of the tanks was quite toxic.

Yum.
I just got a Miele dishwasher recently, not cheap whatsoever, and there's no wifi or app or anything at all.

Yeah, I really do think "edutainment" is the correct classification for this type of content. A lot of tech influencers have figured out the formula for success on YouTube. In order to hit the sweet spot, the content has to be a mile wide and an inch deep to get the engagement metrics necessary to make the channel profitable.
I’ve seen cofounder departures go down a few times second hand/tangentially.

Not a single company survived afterwards.

Are you the CEO? If so, gain the buy-in from your cofounder to follow your direction. If not, find a way to get onboard… or probably damage the company with a departure.
I don't want to be mean or assert without evidence, but, I'm not really sure how to respond: #2 simply doesn't happen, or even close, and it's also not a common partisan interpretation I'm being smug about. It's just flat out wrong, both parties don't try to ram a bill through, the government actually does shut down, and there's no calendar association.
I’d probably just turn off Bluetooth / WiFi and get a setup box like Apple TV, Roku etc. which usually is much nicer than the TV OS anyway. The only time I’m interacting with my TVs UI is when I’m switching input channels.
> Occured to me that sometimes, simple enough is not good enough for us programmers

There's a beautiful article recently linked about naming conventions, there's also another about "The worst developer". Incredible reads.

Simple is good, but it depends on context, it's an absolute certainty we like reducing problems to solvable gradients. This is a good thing.

We all love problems, solving them is 1 challenge, solving them beautifully is another #2 thing.. Never making those problems is an architect thing. We all grow to evolve but learn from eachother.
I haven't worked with anyone who uses it in 12 years. Got turned on to arango but what a shame about the license, now I am writing an adaptation layer enough to get my apps onto postgres with JSONB.

This wasn't so much theater. Even with all that we still had shootings, just mainly in the parking lot. This was well before Columbine and after every one joked how it wouldn't have happened here because too many students would have returned fire.

All of this security was in response to gangs and general violence of the late 80s / 90s.
No I totally see your point I think people are too unfair to programmers in general - seeing software as a cost center and not appreciating the complexity or difficulty inherent in it - and I get how even the question suggests a kind of negative stereotype that might damage people's interactions with non-programmers, for sure.

I came at it from a more positive viewpoint - not of the connection with complexity being a bad thing, but just exploring the dynamic and wondering what it means for us. I think a lot of the answers are really interesting tales born from that experience of working with it day to day, and I think wrestling with the complexity of the world is central to what we do. Celebrate our heroic victory, dance with the complexity of the world! :)
It's not just better hardware, though. As I mentioned, two very easy solutions to help alleviate motion sickness are purely software based. If you're just going purely hardware, we already know that 90FPS is a bare minimum to keep people from puking, along with controls that have you teleport to a spot instead of jerking forwards with your analog stick.

And having the most high fidelity headset you can get. But its improvements are marginal at best compared to what really needs to be done to figure out motion sickness if you want it to actually catch on.

First header on front page: "Craft Engaging Lessons in Minutes."

Further down: "Seriously. You will be done prepping a full lesson in minutes instead of hours"

If we're no longer "crafting in minutes" then you might consider the disclaimers that ChatGPT adds warning that all content must be thoroughly reviewed by a suitably qualified professional.

Rather then blanket statements that everything that ChatGPT produces is fully compliant.

If you teach in Australia, this is huge. SlideHero aligns lessons with the Australian Curriculum, so you can confidently say, “This meets the Achievement Standards.”

So interesting, thank you! Yes software is so complex I don't know how we keep it in our heads! It's why tooling (idea tooling especially) is important. And experience, so you can absorb-away a lot of 'muscle memory' and conceptual heuristics and quickly make the right choices (even if the right choice in the moment is re-evaluating your previous ones and being open to alternatives!!!)
The Wright brothers did create a glider ( https://airandspace.si.edu/collection-objects/1900-wright-gl... ). They also created a powered airplane a gasoline engine and propellers ( https://www.nps.gov/articles/wrightflyer.htm ). They also continued to develop their planes after that first flight. I'm amused by the number of people I've met who seem to think that they flew around a little, then stuck everything in the barn and went back to bicycle making.

All I want is K-V store with indexes.

Let database enforce serialization format (JSON, BSON, MessagePack, protobuf.. anything really) + create and maintain indices, using this fancy crash-proof logic it has. That'll cover 95% of all my database needs.

(OP also asks for row-based layout, types, and non-trivial language. I think those parts are entirely optional)
There are no specific extensions mentioned, a bunch of math symbol rendering issues, and what seems like maybe some hallucinations? Thanks for proving once again how useless chatgpt is if you're not already an expert on what you're asking it
Not really. It's worth it and very effective for business with significant liability risks. The corporate structure of a basic gym will have like 6 entities if it's done properly.

just flagging and getting on with our day

You have about, well, 30 comments in this thread.

One of them took the time to explain what they were doing for you

They took their precious time and explained it just for me? I thought you said "We're just flagging and getting on with our day."

You might want to (looks around) and count up your, well, comments. Seems like you're trying to claim both not caring at all and benevolent enlightenment, which is, well, a little self righteous.

One of many modest-sized if not necessarily small cuts. But Afghanistan did not, say, defeat and invade the Soviet Union.

It out-endured them within its own territory. Much as has happened to the US several times, with resulting embarrassment but not regime change.

Military spending on the part of the US, falling global oil prices, multiple internal contradictions and failures, revolt within Warsaw Pact states, and growing internal dissent were far more significant contributors to the ultimate fall.

Is anyone out there :-D
Ditto. AppleTV or Nvidia Shield (with custom launcher). Personally, I'm now in with AppleTV. I had two Shields and hated when they pushed an update a few years ago to stock android that pushed ads (to services I didn't subscribe to) and that was it for me. There werent as many custom launchers as there are nowadays, but still, went to AppleTv and have been happy. That said, I'd stay clear with Roku with their latest shenanigans as they continue to test their customer's limits with ads now on their home screen [1]. Granted this is on their TV sets, I would still stay clear of their dedicated set-top boxes as it's only a matter of time when they push their limits there too [2].

>what is, in your view, the purpose of your job?

To teach! Creating PowerPoints isn't what makes me a teacher. SlideHero's purpose is to free a teacher from the drudgery so they can focus on what matters, and 99% of that is the face-to-face interactions with kids.

>More than setting an example that research is unnecessary

Gpt is just a tool my friend, just like any other. In this scenario the teacher is the credentialed expert in the room using Gpt as a junior assistant for the purpose of making some slides. Of course the expert reviews the content and chooses the suitable content, that's why they're the expert :)
So... you're fine?
>can you point to an interview where he demonstrates any depth or nuance to his foreign policy decisions, that would indicate he pays attention to any of the details we’re discussing?

first of all, I shouldn't have to, because what we're talking about is a surface-level issue that a child could understand, not something deep or nuanced.

but anyway, here's one example: a while ago Trump suggested that there's a chance the US won't support NATO in the case of an invasion of a member state. can you yourself analyse the real intention and actual result of this foreign policy decision?

If you make everybody stand out, than you're back again at step 1 where it's hard for someone to stand out.

The fact is we're just another name on the pile - but it's not because of presentation, it's because the underlying structure that determines how to the job market works and for what intent. There are exceptions of course, both for fair and unfair reasons, but there's nothing your platform is solving for me: I need a job, not to stand out by changing how I present myself. I see zero reasons to engage in it.

I really didn’t think I’d be saying this… but I genuinely feel ChatGPT has positively impacted my mental health.

I often use it as a therapist. It sounds ridiculous, I know, but it actually works pretty well. It has an exceptionally high EQ and often uses language far better than I ever could to help uncover the thoughts and feelings I’m processing.

Sometimes, just finding the right words to express myself relieves a great deal of stress, and by God, these bots are good with words…
Gödel's incompleteness theorems have given mathematicians an identity crisis for nearly a century now.

I think it leads to a healthier view of mathematics in the end. Imo, it's healthy to realize that math is just an attempt at abstracting observed patterns in a way that can be extended and studied and not some fundamental principle of the universe itself
Noise pollution is such a nightmare.

I totally have the same view. At least I did when I was focused on them. Now I barely think about them at all. Something pernicious about it, isn't it? The deliberate over-engineering of false complexity to bog down potential competitors! Shed a tear for the billions of human hours wasted by millions of startups on stupid ideas in these frameworks!

A junior would get a nice sense of mastery from figuring what the hell the framework authors must've been thinking when they designed it ass-backwards lol, totally! But I also feel like it would ruin that junior's brain! I always avoided them, luckily my aesthetic intuition totally warned me off kept me miles away. I am not poisoning myself with that hahaha! :)

Hopefully no acolytes encounter these comments - the medicine will be too bitter for them. Your answer is the vibe of a whole era (2010s shiny engineering), thank you!
If I were putting government procedure on a blockchain, I'd want something stronger than SHA1 for the edges.
Are you living in a parallel universe? There is no conceivable path forward where Europe will somehow be able to compete on the world stage against US and China.

Europe is more than two decades behind and in a death grip of the woke left, basically hell-bent on self destruction.

All talent has left to US and Asia. Endless stupid regulations and crippling taxation make startups impossible. There is no way Europe will ever be able to compete.
By "mild" I meant more that it's not so cold that tank engines can't start and tons of German soldiers freeze to death. Not that it matters for the bigger point.

FWIW, I asked Grok and it said that with better weather Germany might have taken Moscow, but they were probably (80%) doomed anyway because of several factors, including Hitler's incompetent military strategy.

If they had attacked in April instead, Grok gives it 50% chance that they defeat the Soviets before the winter and Lend-Lease equipment makes it hopeless.

I know, it's just a word predicting piece of mindless software...

Still, I stick by my main point. The Spanish Armada example is better than mine.
I feel ashamed to admit this in public, but...me too. The barrier to entry is so much lower than therapy, I feel less anxiety about explaining my situation correctly, and I can quickly start over with a "new therapist" whenever I want.

Is it a replacement? No, of course not. But boy if it isn't a big help.

No. The other languages have documented semantics too. Just happens that C's are in the shape of a standards document.
I've found it helpful eliminating alot of boilerplate, especially for languages with static typing. e.g. if I declare something like class Foo { int a; int b; public: void Foo() } it will normally start autocompleting the initializer.
This indicates that the readability is truly poor.

He’s basically just asking for SQL without the query planner because it’s obnoxious and how often do you have unconstrained arbitrary queries hitting the database that you don’t have the chance to vet anyways?

The only issue is that it needs a good user. Just as you can work your way into good insights, you can work yourself into bad insights just as easily. Sometimes chatgpt doesn't challenge you enough unless you ask it to under specific frameworks or paradigms. It is definitely a useful tool though.

Edit: These are all problems with real therapy too though, on further reflection. It took some time to find the therapist that works well with you. That can be a form of similar bias.
I think you’re giving transhumanism an elementary treatment. Everybody believes to some degree that it’s okay to “modify themselves” or, more generally, to apply technology to humans to achieve better outcomes. If you apply aloe vera to a sunburn, or install a hearing aid, you’re augmenting human facilities for a better outcome. And most relevant here: You don’t need a religious movement to adopt that worldview. Corollary: supporting hearing aid use doesn't make you a transhumanist in any actual way (even if there are a few THs out there that would argue that’s all it takes, for then everyone is a TH so nobody is).

Again, an average transhumanist does not “simply believe” that they need a movement and religion achieve human augmentation. Because that is our societal resting state. Or if they do they are blissfully naïve.

So now that we’re past that, if you actually discuss the subject matter at any depth, you’ll quickly get to the fundamental question and learn what makes a transhumanist different from everyday humans that have been augmenting themselves with technology for millennia: what is a human? What is a species?

A transhumanist embraces the singularity, for example, because they are not concerned with losing our humanity. (Because if one were concerned then it would be inconsistent for one to embrace an event where humans are obsoleted.) For a transhumanist it’s okay for the human race to become extinct provided we witness the coming of a more powerful consciousness.

More practically, what makes the discussion even possible is that we don’t really know what makes us human. If we did people could either take clear sides and/or you could clearly protect the essence of human through arbitrary technological augmentation.

I believe that until we identify what makes our conscious experience uniquely possible, we must protect the system that gives rise to it: our species. Until humans have the knowledge of god, humans shall not play god. A transhumanist would use my own argument against me and say that humans _are and always have been_ the product of augmentation, so come what may.

Make sense?

From my reading of TFA the author’s statement is not radical and indeed rather accurate. I am pretty sure they have a fairly complete understanding of the landscape.
Yeah the other easy one is "recording studio". It's $1500 an hour to rent our laptop and midi keyboard. And also, the music you recorded here is pretty good so we will sign you and advance you back 80% of your studio fee. Now you can show income to finance a Dodge charger.

I like the innovative use of public gaslighting in the same vein as "drugs are bad" and "psychedelics will make everyone mad". I rush in panic to vote that we should regulate all chatbots schedule 1, prevent the masses accessing them, and let them only be used by the elites in secret. It was always gonna be this way, governments are terrified of individuals getting more power and control.

I also totally agree with the other commenters: chatbots can be great for expressing to, and gaining perspective.
That's the primary difference between common law and civil law countries.

In Germany for example, there are regular laws (if you need to know what's legal and what not, these are the ones you read) and change laws (Änderungsgesetze), which usually read like

"Law XYZ, Paragraph 5a, Sentence 3 is changed to read as follows: '...', Sentence 7 is appended with '...', Sentence 8 is removed"

So at any time, you've got a clear set of laws that apply.
Simply rename the device “malware” at this point.
I believe there actually often is a calendar association but only because the US fiscal year starts October 1st, and funding legislation needs to be enacted before then.
It's much less of your own code if you use TCL (THINK Class Library), which shipped with THINK C 4.0 (and THINK Pascal) in mid 1989.

Your System 6.0.8 is from April 1991, so TCL was well established by then and the C/C++ version in THINK C 5 even used proper C++ features instead of the hand-rolled "OOP in C" (nested structs with function pointers) used by TCL in THINK C 4.

I used TCL for smaller projects, mostly with THINK Pascal which was a bit more natural using Object Pascal, and helped other people use it and transition their own programs that previously used the Toolbox directly, but my more serious programs used MacApp which was released for Object Pascal in 1985, and for C++ in 1991.
