I don't think it's real though, it's a covert call to action via reverse psychology: "everything is really really bad, it's almost hopeless and past time so... [do something about it]"

By IDE search do you mean that it was using glean even in your local vscode? Does glean therefore work in combination with LSPs, because scip says that code modifications are a non-goal and now I wonder why somebody would create such a big

People aren't going to buy little usb sticks, some phones don't even have usb ports and the NFC or bluetooth connection never works properly. Also generally even having multiple devices isn't going to save you when you really

All you said is that it worked for you, you even emphasize that your usecase was different because you have several devices. This doesn't relate to my question.

I think people are just fundamentally not willing to attribute intelligence to things that can't have conversations. This is why the incredible belief was possible that babies or dogs don't feel pain. Once the AI is given some lon

these donations will do nothing to change Trump's mind anyway, this is happening because these tech CEOs think that Trump is a vain baffoon that can be swayed by gifts and sweet words. I'm sure to some degree it's true for an

This is misrepresentation, they didn't just happen to make a mistake in a complex situation. The crime was to know about the mistake and still not fix it - on purpose. The crime was to know that they should be giving people training on

it's part of being honest and citing your possibly unreliable source, you should be very glad about people who do this. The real problem is that he didn't post any actual information in his comment.

The judges could give them such large fines to force them into bankrupcy. Alex Jones was fined 1.1 billion dollars. How much should Boeing be fined for causing actual deaths?

Can you see the problem though: If you need a huge page dedicated to explaining the difference between how-tos and tutorials then it's clearly too confusing and not obvious at all. Nobody is going to need a page telling them the differ

Your videogame example shows the problem. Tutorials are effectively just a different form of walkthrough. You are getting walked through the basics. So that's my point, you can't have different words on your website that is suppos

it's the only useful definition because what else would ever be useful just for its own sake? There has to be a reference point and the moment you have one, it's technically not intrinsic anymore. So we can't do that.

there is intrinsic in the context of where we are as humans , that's why saying that there is intrinsic worth is correct. Humans need to eat, intrinsically. I guess partially it depends on whether the word 'intrinsic' still

I don't agree with it because while I think that it's theoretically correct, the words are too close together. To me "tutorial", "how to guide" and "explanation" are all practically synonyms. I know t

Yes, "associated with". But it is not part of the definition of the word. I don't know how much clearer anybody could make this. Democracy just means voting, it does not even mean that everyone gets to vote and certainly not

Yes I know what the word is being used these days for but it doesn't make sense. Democracy does not inherently have anything to do with these additional (also vague) terms.

In a way it shouldn't be tied to size either, it should be tied to results. If a social company is clearly only interested in profit to the exclusion of societal benefits then they deserve to be regulated.
