Maybe in other regions, I am in Stockholm and would be shocked by an approaching neighbour trying to talk to me, unless it was to complain about my trees or something. On the bus/train, even when it breaks down and we have to wait near

I live in a Nordic country. The rule here is to avoid social contact at any cost. People waiting for a bus must stand at least 2 meters away from each other. Otherwise you might be close enough for someone less equipped in the local etiquet

If you do that, you end up with all the problems that MCP attempts to solve: how to authorize using a standard mechanism, how to summarize operations in a better way than just dumping the OpenAPI spec on the LLM, providing structured input&

Well interesting... I absolutely expect engineers to make the "right" decisions no matter their religion, race or culture. It's not about being mindless automata, it's about using scientific rigour to guide your decision

Wait, were things different as recently as 2018? I just remember when I was into concerts, circa 1998, most people just stood there unless it was a big hit playing, but a significant amount of people would always dance or just jump like cra

What do you mean by hash token?? Are you referring to PKCE (which is an extension to OAuth)?

OAuth says nothing about authentication other than you have to be redirected back to the client once authentication is complete, by unspecified means, before the client can proceed with authorization and get a token proving they are now aut

I think you’re taking the professional responsibility that engineers are given too far. They are not given that responsibility to make political decisions, as you seem to be implying. Engineers are professionals in the hard sciences, not in

I disagree. It's very hard to admire a direct enemy, even if you can see their strengths, you'll rationalize them in your head as being the evil sort of strength, which comes not from virtue but from their total lack of morality o

Is Spotify US based? They did get listed on the NY Exchange but I think they are still headquartered in Sweden. Not that one example says much but if true, at least one tech giant managed to not succumb to American capital.

I had a flip phone at the time and it certainly did more than the iPhone, but admittedly harder to use and not as good looking.

I’ve lived in several countries. When you get a visa, it’s always very clear that overstaying is a crime and if you do it you’ll never be allowed again in the country, or at least not for many years. But normally they just deport you immedi

Same thing happened to us. Me and a C level guy were personally attacked. It feels really bad to see someone you actually tried really hard to help fit in , but just couldn’t despite really wanting the person to succeed, come around and acc

People are weird. Men are probably even worse if you really dig deep down what we are interested in on a woman. The kind of thing we prefer not to even think about. What we evolved to like is not always “appropriate “ in a modern society.

It is an all or nothing decision. We were letting devs make a decision about AI use and it turned out just a few were using it. The rest were using it just a little. But we noticed people were still spending time on stuff that AI can easily

You are really out of touch, LinkedList is very widely regarded as bad for performance in nearly every scenario possible and thus hardly ever used. Array VS Arraylist is a valid question because they have very different properties.

Can confirm. We don’t know if AI really is about to make programmers who write code by hand obsolete, but we sure as hell fear our competitors will ship features 10x faster than us. What is the logical next step?? Invest lots of money on AI

One of the ways they keep crime so low. Being convicted destroys your reputation in a country where reputation is extremely important. Everyone loves saying it would be great to have lower crimes like Japan, but very few would really want t

For most apps it’s much less than that and in most cases it’s unnoticeable. I think it would be more productive if you could point out an app that has noticeably worse performance on FillC, so that the cause for that could be looked at and
