I like Copilot. Don't hate any OS, Windows, MacOS or Linux. Just don't see much thought put into the design, engineering and User Experience aspect of some of these OS iterations. As far as Copilot, I can't see a way to exist

Exactly! As of now, there is no benefit to regular working people. Perhaps in the future, great abundance will occur, but as of now, there will only be job loss, fear, neo-luddism, and blame. Believe me when I say that I know people, some

Perhaps I am not as smart as I led myself to believe but the sound and words of the voice at the other end of the phone that called my then sff company job's tech support line (when IT jobs were more abundant) were way over my head. Wi

Yes, I believe I tried J at one point. Nothing against the APL, J & K languages but my brain got accustomed to using the R-Language and R-Studio, even over Python, partly because of the same keyboard difficulty, at least in my case, but

Yeah, I changed the keyboard settings in my OS (Win at the time) a few times, but it was a pain to have to remember the key layouts even with tutorials. I like the idea of using stickers at a lower price which is more reasonable. I always w

If the Keyboard requirements for this language were not so high, I might have gotten into this language, but the cost of purchasing the equipment put me off. That is not to say that I don't find the language intriguing since that it is

I used to work in that field and procured braille media for visually impaired people. In the US state that I live in, light-weight print-to-order braille books are free for qualified low vision students, especially in an education setting.

I used to browse bookstores all the time in the past, but there are fewer and fewer physical bookstores around. Malls have been closing down for the longest time. Even when books were available, the prices were extremely high. I'm excl

Thank you :)

I agree. It's hard to know, but if it were me that's creating this type of economy, an uncertain economy which may/may not bring about all these changes, I'd modify the approach to account for any potential human displac

Greed drives most of the current crop of Tech Bros. I once had the chance to be a Bro, far richer than any of the current ones, thanks to the still secretive and anonymous "original-sn-adjacent cryptographic collective". Things, h

Hmm, that's troubling but predictable. The idea that AI will bring an age of abundance may be true, but not in the short term. Companies are letting people go, and AI will be blamed for that, whether true or not. For decades the public

This is a cool project! I used a Z80 (Zilog80) Computer Kit (Assembly Programming learning simulator) for college digital coursework. That was actually a good learning experience. Forget the name of the actual company but you could program

Great Info. :) Learning resources for Nintendo Systems are not, generally, easy to find at least for me.

Satoshi has many contributors. In my view, he/she is not one person but many. Why, because it would take a genius with multiple skills, e.g. engineering, programming, cryptography, mathematics, financial knowledge and a lot of time, a

Obviously, I refer to Iran yet any BTC transactions can be traced which suggests that they'll convert to some other crypto, more secure coin then take whatever wealth they have and go to a secure, extradition-free country. That's

Ah, invoking Betteridge's Law, classic way to dodge the actual question with a meta-joke. In my defense, I thought we were playing Jeopardy :)

Another possibility is that what's left of the regime has been given a certain time to flee and thus are plotting their exit and trying to pocket every last cent of wealth to take with them before they go into exile.

Ah, RatKablooey. Yeah, that’s the nickname they gave the old bomb-sniffing rat. Guy was a legend… or at least, that’s what the reports said. His “bomb count” was so high, even the military started double-checking the math when his stats bec

Would have been funny if it were called "DORY" due to memory recall issues of the fish vs LLMs similar recall issues :)

Hmm, for the longest time, the Flatpak version of the app in my Linux OS was warning me that a particular older org.freedesktop.Platform runtime was end of life, and that OBS project should update their compatibility hence OBS was being cla

Nifty app! Just tried the AppImage version on Linux, simple to use, and works Ok on my end. Suggest you add preferences dropdown to floating bar, and ability to highlight parts of an area for record, ability to set the default save location

This is very cool! We need more games like this so that the younger population get some sort of exposure to the hardware side of things, before AI takes over that field. I would also think that take-home electronic and soldering kits for ad
