Tim is Eddy and Eddy is Phil, but Tim is not Phil?

Well, I suppose it depends on what your definition of "is" is. Mine typically exhibits the transitive property ;P

I, for one, was actually confused.

I really do expect them to try. I am slightly hopeful that this clown show of an administration is too incompetent to pull it off. The judicial branch appears to be bought and paid for, so maybe my optimism is unfounded.

Also, backing up, efficiency is not the only metric we should care about. We learned the hard way at the start of the pandemic that our efficient supply chains were fragile due to lack of redundancy. A government agency may benefit from con

> Posix shell-compatible scripts will also likely work on all platforms where you go program would've been run. While I see your point, writing a Posix compatible shell script is not trivial. Little errors creep in that "work o

I mean this entirely depends on how things are done where you work. I wouldn't think the back-reference is necessary if all projects have their own repo in some central location (and it's trivial to match the binary's name to

One neat thing about Go that makes it superior to a shell script is that it compiles a statically-linked binary. One self-contained file! Or N if you support N platforms. Did I mention that cross-compilation is trivial?

I don't want to come off too harsh here -- not a personal attack -- but I genuinely don't understand why folks are sharing the output from LLMs. It's usually too long, it's not written by a human (which is why I came to

Isn't that the definition of a Ponzi scheme?

Not to be confused with the Justine Tunney's debugger named Blinkenlights: https://justine.lol/blinkenlights/

I wouldn't be surprised if they're an LLM-powered bot.

Unless they randomly assigned jobs, I am quite skeptical. A person with poor cardiovascular health seems unlikely to pursue a job that requires walking all day!

I'm not really sure how that matters? It's possible to be rude without intent :) Sorry if I came on strong. Not trying to start a fight. This just resembled someone I know in the real world.

There are more questions that make sense than those that can be tested. To the point, I have a convincing experience of consciousness and free will — qualia — and I suspect a digital clone of my brain would have a similar experience. Althou

Maybe the coming onslaught of AI slop "proofs" will give a little bump to proof assistants like Coq. Of course, it would still take a human mathematician some time to verify theorem definitions.

People's interests change over time. It's not necessarily because folks are grappling with their own mortality. For instance, lots of older folks seem to get into bird watching. I also want to point out that saying "let me ph

This site would benefit from a comparison with other static site generators. I dare say it's not that difficult for a programmer to roll their own SSG with whatever is at hand. Does it have any clever properties that naive solution wou

I'm not sure the man is capable of reflection. I think all we can say is that he's reliably unpredictable. Perhaps he will do something different this term.

That's really interesting to read. I'm a man who has absolutely zero interest in interacting with babies and infants, but kids who can talk and ask questions can be pretty funny and cute even. My wife doesn't understand this

Yes, and without understanding how it works, I'm left wondering whether it's even safe to use this way. Will creduce execute mutated versions of the input script, potentially deleting my files or eating my lunch?

I mean, it gets the point across and they're not claiming to be "GNU coreutils". Maybe some derivative name would be better for uniqueness.

Not all lawsuits need to be legitimate. They just need to be plausible and expensive to influence corporate decision-making.

But perhaps it happened not out of the goodness of their hearts, but for unfathomable reasons like warding off antitrust lawsuits.

In college, I took a discrete math course with the world's most unprepared, distractible professor. It was incredible. He would come in with nothing planned in particular, we could ask about concepts from the textbook and he would inve
