I'd say it's more like driving vs assisted driving with shouting inputs (e.g. TURN LEFT! WATCH FOR THE PEDESTRIAN! CRUISE AT 70 MPH! SLOW DOWN THERE'S ANOTHER CAR IN FRONT! USE THE SECOND RAMP TO EXIT!). The only benefit is t

By blanket helping everyone no matter the wealth, you end up helping mostly non-wealthy people. By helping specifically the poor/not wealthy, you end up with a massive bureaucracy trying to decide who is wealthy enough, and add paperwo

The base engine is from 2003, and likely haven't been updated since. There's nothing wrong with that, since software does last far longer than hardware does. But the limitation shows (i.e. limited to 1080p, limited calculation log

Out of curiosity, are there any simcity 4 refresh out there? That game was way ahead of its time. I just want a 2023 version, but just couldn't seem to find it. Every successor game and other games seem to either focus on details/

I feel a similar way about typescript. It outsource the mental complexity into compile stage instead of directly on runtime.

My opinion is manual navigation is O(log(N)) for well organized projects. Which scales very well - especially as the package should be optimized for local changes/split into dependencies when it gets above a certain size. For a project

Personally, without considering languages, I think IDE subconsciously cause complexity and increase entropy for a project. When things are at the a single key jump it's easy to insert code wherever and eventually build a jumbled mess

Avoid writing java in python. Don't stretch inheritance where where they are not needed - avoid factory classes unless you know for certain that it's called for. Use pythonic stuff like @decorators and enjoy functions as first cla

That would have been true for most majors. The universities and colleges around the world have not adopted to the new reality where knowledge up to Master Degree level is essentially freely available to everyone with an internet connection.

The existing metrics are already the fairest. i.e. Life expectancy, work length, income, spending, etc. Metrics has to be objectively measurable, otherwise they would have a huge subjective bias. Some people can be happy and enjoy life in a

I wouldn't expect anything less from a model trained on human generated data. In fact, I would guess more humans to answer this way to a misleading question then ones who wouldn't.

I like Apple in which they absolutely avoid potentially misleading terms and instead label all of this as Machine Learning (ML). Much more accurate imo. You'll never hear AI from Apple announcements, this contrast sharply with the few

Probably won't, people don't ask for what they don't know, and you'd be surprised at how even in the field of software engineering people don't actively looks for ways to automate stuff.

Are these a long term boost though? I think the compensation bands are eventually going to be based off performance and level after the signing bonus wears off.

There are Corporate and then there are IBM. Some corporations have a working long term plan, even if those plans are are purely about making more money in the future. Can't say the same for IBM.

this is basically exactly what it does. It looks through the folder (i.e. year/month/date.md) and try to find whether today's diary exist. If it does exist it just opens it, otherwise it creates it. The script actually accept
