I'm curious what people think of quotes like these. Obviously it makes an explicit, falsifiable prediction. That prediction is false. There are so many reasons why someone could predict that it would be false. Is it just optimistic mar

Which shows that the mega-corporations that endorsed it before weren't even sincere in that. Further evidence that you shouldn't trust a soulless mega-corporation-- no matter what they profess in public. I respect someone who stan

I hear you. I feel like my personal experience has definitely influenced my view. I've seen management who want to have a timeline and a deadline from day 1, but don't want to put any effort into thinking out how they could alloca

Perhaps that is the ideal when it was laid out, but the reality of the common implementation is that planning is dispensed with. It gives some management a great excuse to look no further than the next jira ticket, if that. The ideal implem

Those are more recent examples, but I think Germany is still a more visceral example for a lot of Western nations because Germany was a high tech, educated industrial nation that was hit with such massive problems from government policy. It

Servers I setup in openbsd just keep working, and are an easy patch/upgrade process. Servers I setup in Ubuntu break and have weird patching issues. Maybe it's something I'm doing, but I sure do like that OpenBSD seems a lot

Sad that my first thought was "AI".

Lots of languages ecosystems have this problem, but it is especially prominent in JS and lies on a spectrum. For comparison, in the C/C++ ecosystem it is prominent to have libraries advertising that they have zero dependencies and head

I had a chatbot attempt to answer an issue I had with setting up a Shopify site yesterday. All of the information was correct, but I had already done it. A customer support rep was able to retrigger the TLS query. The chatbot knew that need

We recently got a customer support request asking if we were going to "implement AI" on our website and then saying we could use it in our marketing if we did. No suggestion as to why they would find it useful, or what feature cou

My assumption is that creating a compiler and runtime to match sbcl isn't in scope for racket, so it wouldn't be polite to request racket to do so :) there were probably other benefits of similar orthogonal features, where racket

I know this is probably a bit more advanced, but this suggestion reminds me of Blueprints w/ magic nodes in Unreal Engine. There is a plugin for Magic Nodes ( https://forums.unrealengine.com/t/magic-nodes/12122

I am genuinely confused why search is so bad in the major email webapps/clients. Search is a well studied feature, and it seems like it's something that should just work but I can never find the thing I'm searching for in my

Reminds me of the Paradise Lost quote, "Better to rule in Hell, than serve in Heaven", such an insightful book for understanding a certain type of person from Milton. Beautiful imagery throughout too, highly recommend.

Similar thing I've run into lately, chat is horrible for tracking issues and tasks. When people try to use it that way, it becomes absolute chaos after awhile.

It used to be exciting when a Blizzard release was coming out. Now it's just scary and a bit depressing when they announce something. I was excited all the way up through Overwatch 1, then the WC3 remaster and Overwatch 2 were awful. I
