I find the analysis of the Codex group much more interesting and I feel further studies are necessary before drawing conclusions. Students frequently (n=501, 30%) copied the task description to generate the entire code with no prior m

I absolutely don't think the system should work this way. But people will send their kids to work if the money is needed to keep the family afloat. And the families who have to do this aren't thinking about the wealthy, they'

I don't see how this is related. AI enhanced images (as in enhanced with generative Ai) have nothing in common with digitally enhanced images, other than maybe they're both done in digital form. The process, how the image is trans

This is a terrible idea. The whole point to providing security updates to everybody was because a rising tide lifts all boats. This won't force people to upgrade. It just means tons of people will be more at risk and the internet is wo

It looks like Lzip only has a single maintainer and there's no public repository to track commits or contributors (at least I couldn't find any). I don't think it's a viable option.

Light pollution though. Seems like that's more a feature than a bug that might be beneficial for insect and animal life.

Everybody I talked to online and offline, all the discussions I saw, dismissed the idea of Russia actually invading as impossible, since "Putin would never do something this stupid, it's just posturing like every other time".

1) It used to work that way. You didn't even have to put in special effort. It takes more effort to do what these companies do today to ensure nobody can interface with their service. 2) Apparently we need regulation to make companies

It's crazy how the 00s was this golden age of interoperability. You could use almost every messaging service with a third party client. Now all we have is walled gardens.

Dang, that seems like a lot of effort. It looks great though and it's such a big help for understanding something like this. I wonder if there are tools to automate this sort of thing. Like, is there a debugger that could highlight cod

Flightradar24's visual representation definitely sucks, but comparing the two, gpsjam has a lot of unexpected missing areas across Africa, South America, and SE Asia that at least have some data on FR24. I'm not sure if that means

Airbus didn't spin them out. It doesn't matter if they thought about it, because they decided it was a bad idea. It's nothing like Spirit and Boeing. Even as a subsidiary, the relationship is much more vertically integrated.

It only makes sense if your only metric is cost. There are a lot of reasons why Airbus owns the subsidiaries who do Spirit's type of work for Airbus (such as the airframe). Airbus does not do the same thing as Boeing.
