Sorry, about the rant: ELI5 really triggers me. Have you ever talked to a five-year-old? They're very interested but ignorant and have minute attention spans. Have some self-respect, put on your big boy pants and at least make an effor

Weird , this almost sounds like a parody... Some sort of a "contract" between a spouse caught cheating and a bat-shit partner preventing them from seeing any other person ever.

There are more complex problems than "nail" requiring more complex tools than "hammer". And even the hammer metaphor falls apart pretty quickly: compressor driven nail guns are commonly used. VSCode is obviously has some

Not only that, but every other chapter of the "book" ends in: "I have written a more extensive text about this topic on my database focused website ..." pushing their blog. It's unclear why. If anything, I would exp

That's not money laundering either :) If anything, whoever is donating the 100k now needs to explain where that money came from. Uncle Jimmy's nephew needs to declare the money on his taxes.

My first impression is that all three of these are clutter to an already very cluttered language ... 1.) Coming from embedded programming, I can see the utility of `std::unreachable`. But shouldn't this be a compiler directive? Or a st

What makes you feel entitled for unfettered access to these technologies? You get free, limited access to DALLE. The methods used to accomplish this are published. Google, openai, etc could just as well keep all this to themselves. You coul

An author does get to choose which platform they publish on. I'm really surprised by all the apologists here, the article is clearly click bait trying to cram ads down your throat. The real irony is that while the post is bearable to l
