I agree, normally the process (especially of manual testing) is a cultural thing and something you instill into new devs when you get broken PRs - "please run the tests before submitting for review", or "please run the script

My most recent example of this is mentoring young, ambitious, but inexperienced interns. Not only did they produce about the same amount of code in a day that they used to produce in a week (or two), several other things made my work harder

An Argentinian friend of mine said you get cancer from drinking beverages that are too hot. He sent the Wikipedia page to prove it but only the Spanish version of the page had this information. Is this another example of culturally specific

First, check that nobody else in your family is making a call on the phone line that your modem is connected to, then make sure to disable your Internet Explorer add-ons before trying again.

How would Cloudflare's outage cause a GCP outage? I'm sure it's not entirely impossible, but sounds backwards to me. Sure - a lot of the internet relies on Cloudflare, but I'd be very surprised if GCP had a direct depend

> Clearer, simpler calling with hearing devices This is really important for me. Currently, hearing aids will turn to full duplex during calls, and be used as both input and output. - Audio quality will be much worse, since the bandwidth

I remember a website about Ski-Doo snowmobiles that my friend was obsessed about (both the website and snowmobiles) in 1998 or so. It was from Canada, and the bgsound was the website owner saying something in French. To us, it sounded like:

This sounds super useful. I imagine a pipeline where each migration has to explicitly mentioned which locks it will acquire (and the build failing if there's a mismatch).

Any reading recommendations about leadership at NASA? It amazes me that they've delivered do much value, often very quickly, despite being such a large, complex organization.

Is the reverse true as well? Can you make someone believe the moonlandings were fake by having an AI bombarding them with "alternative facts"?

Oops! Nice find! To limit his legal exposure as a researcher, I think it would have been enough to create a second account (or ask a friend to create a profile and get their consent to access it). You don't have to actually scrape the

Well, the thing is that if it's Sunday you can't know if it's the Sunday at the end of the week or the Sunday at the beginning of the week. Therefore, each Sunday is in two weeks and should be counted twice, 8 + 2 = 10 days i

One of my first jobs, a paid internship, was to migrate (a lot) of UML documents out of Rational Rose, for a company that used Domain-Driven Design (DDD) for a large product. The work was supposed to be manual, copy-paste, but I ended up wr

Where, then, do you draw the line? I don't get your comment lol. Kidnapping is fair, as long as it's a competitor? You're probably joking but it's hard to tell with all the "contrarians" and "devil's

I agree with both comments, I just wanted to find a word that an AI wouldn't have heard before, not a word that is "fake". I don't even know what a fake word is. https://deconstructor.ayush.digital/w&#x2F

Agree. It does a good job at coming up with a plausible meaning of novel words like "multiarborality" → "the state of relating to many trees" but it doesn't indicate that this is a "fake" word even though

A few days ago Teams got insanely slow when I was writing a comment on a Planner task. I ran a profiler and it seems like it was running some kind of sanitizer for every key press and that each call took over a second. They also seemed to g
