When I see code with a lot of inline comments, I can’t help but think that a lot of them would make sense to implement as trace log messages instead. If you’re going to write all these messages documenting the flow of the program, why not g

This will probably follow the same pattern as companies’ response to politicians who gave credence to the election lies: stop donations —-> some time passes —-> resume donations.

Was the purpose of this article to explain NFT coherently, or to demonstrate that GPT-3 is getting better? If it’s the latter, wouldn’t it have been better to not edit and add a few points? We have no idea just how much work is being hidden

If you were trying to use charitable giving as a measure of morality, you’d have to somehow control for the collection plate effect which is more about response to peer pressure than morality.

I don’t think “much easier” is an exaggeration at all. It is hard to win with no help as you say. Which is why there’s a good chance that she would have been caught if the people who did have help knew there was someone they needed to catch

Honest question. Why do your examples assume that the autonomous machine has to be smaller than the human operated version?

As if the goodness or badness of the law matters. With something like this with such an obvious political angle, the importance of the quality of the law is approximately zero.

Not allowing transit into and through your airspace is not exactly the same thing as allowing transit into your airspace then forcing them down in your country.

This seems a lot more aggressive than what happened with the Bolivian President. The man who had tasked himself with harboring Snowden made everyone think Snowden was on the plane and the US presumably influenced some allies to not allow hi

That antibody research doesn’t seem to support your initial assertion of vaccinated individuals being at a huge disadvantage compared to those with natural immunity. Your point about T cell response seems reasonable. A natural T cell respon

Do you have a link to the research you’re citing from the other day? Also the basis for your implication that there’s a known difference in T cell response for natural immunity vs vaccine immunity?

This article demonstrates exactly why I’ve tended not to get as up-in-arms as some of my fellow male colleagues when it comes to gender/workplace issues. Sure, sometimes it seems like the pushback against the male dominated culture of

Has anyone checked the ship’s manifest? Maybe we’ll get lucky and find out it’s carrying 20,000 containers of thermite.

But why is learning to use apt the correct layer of abstraction? Could you not just as easily say kids shouldn’t use apt—they need to learn to build from source?

That was one of the eyebrow-raising things the author touched on, “automated testing theatre”. Really? Unit testing is pointless...is that now a thing? Is there another industry that is constantly changing its mind or debating every aspect

Why should they have the right to have their payments restructured? Why does your argument for saying that discharge should not exist not also apply to why people should be held responsible for abiding by the original terms of the debt agre

As others have already stated, though probably not the most informative, “main” is a reasonable choice in this context. Given that, your choice to label it as knowingly misleading for impact is itself more deserving of criticism than the th

It’s true. Petty prosecutorial corruption is far too common everywhere for it to be labeled as “something you’d expect to see in Russia/China/etc” given the far worse things that go on in those places. But, please, let’s stop pret
