Surely you mean "IntelliJ rs", right? Kidding aside, this is nice! Always happy to see more support for Rust, and I'm usually pretty impressed by what JetBrains brings to the table in their IDEs, so this is promising! Hopeful

You seem a little confused by my initial comment. What you seem to be saying, here, is that pell.js isn't a good rich text editor. What I said was that pell can be used to write a good rich text editor. If I were building a rich text e

As a developer who built my own note app (like an anemic Notion), using pell.js as a backbone, I tend to disagree that it does nothing to help. I'll grant you that it is so lightweight as to not provide much luxury, but I find that far

I feel the pain of this author, but between stuff like pell.js and more and more web devs understanding and taking advantage of template literals for rendering, we're not really far off from what is being described.

This is pretty cool! I'm not sure what I would use it for, but it seems like it's definitely useful. I've been in the midst of developing my own frontend (SPA/PWA) data storage solution, using IndexedDB (and the Dexie li

So the most powerful tool ever built for generating human-like content has the same problem as humans: it needs to be able to reliably discern between human and human-like content. This feels about as clever as a tautology, and just about a

I think you're right in that most test aren't useful for what they are trying to assess. And that you can't validate anything that you can't trust the integrity of. But I think the takeaway is that "critical applica

That assumes that a student is incapable of understanding the ethics without being able to practice the ethics. I think you would have a high bar in proving that to be the case. A lot of people do shit they, personally, find unethical, so l

Nothing I said implies I think education only teaches fact. Obviously I believe the contrary, as evidenced by my comments. As far as education teaching people how to be net-positive members of society, I agree that's what the education

I honestly think it's more of a reactionary thing. Cheating is bad. That's a pretty uncontroversial statement. Whatever the criteria for "cheating", if we're all agreeing that you did it, that's bad and deserve

by catapart 3y ago
Yeah, but WHY would they want to teach you not to cheat? It's not a virtue, in and of itself (cheating has to be defined for each context it's in so "don't cheat" is like saying "don't be bad"). They

Exactly. Whether he intended to or not, he - HIMSELF - put two different, equally authorially-dominant, sets of answers into the wild and expected students to pick the best one in what can only be described as an unauthorized (afaik?) socia

Are you trying to teach kids to not cheat? Or are you trying to teach them how to conceptualize, illustrate (if not demonstrate), and structure ethics such that they can make critical and thoughtful deductions or contributions to the field?

Right? Isn't this just... a forum? PHPBB is still kickin' baby; probably has a one-click deployment, somewhere out there, too. What's stopping y'all, Article OP?

Wow! There's a dynamite product in here that pairs a daily nagging app and one of these displays so that people are reminded to take a new picture, ever day, and have it show up on someone's (or all subscribed) photo frame. I&#x27

Aye. Big "we have a developer that knows CSS" vibes, rather than "we have a designer" energy. Feels like someone should have told them the pitfalls of chasing a design that was hand-crafted for a specific format (print m

I don't know what I said that was snobby? I replied to their article based on the points they made in said article. That aside, yes, I was wrong to use it like "[...] in the `article` tag."; well spotted.

Design proof that being "unique" doesn't mean "good". I'm certainly glad they like what they've built. But it breaks a lot of design concepts that help with UX (some in micro ways that aren't really n

To be even more specific - you can only ever describe something by a function, and you have to supply a state in order to get a singular result. In physical space, the state we provide to get a result of any particular "object" is

I'm sorry that you think you have a say in that. But I'll speak however I want to. Your criticism on this matter means nothing to me, so fire away.

Why would that make it easier? Everyone knows you shouldn't vigorously rub your stomach near your coworkers, but it's still hard to write a commitment that would satisfy all situations. What about when Gene gets a really bad itch

Yes, it has. And can still lead to confusion, in certain instances. I'm not trying to convince you, or anyone else, to write or speak the way I do. And I'm amenable to any specific person or group of persons representing their (

Sorry; They are just gender-neutral pronouns, since I don't know the comment author's gender. I find it easiest to parse, when reading, as "she" and "her", in my head, because trying to use "he" and &

Ah yes. Actively engaging by continuing to respond. The telltale signs of "pause". Your whining is amusing, though! So I hope that can bring you as much satisfaction as it is bringing me, at the moment.

I didn't contend that DEI discludes equity. I made the point that "equity" isn't what the commenter said it "seems to be". As in, ne said it seemed to be "outcome-based instead of opportunity-based".

So [what]... there is value in reminding people of that, because everyone has confirmation biases and while some opinion pieces are thoughtful, critical, and comprehensive, other are just propaganda. Identifying it is a matter of contextual

Because employment is social. There's no rule that says you can't rub your stomach. But if you consistently find woman coworkers and stand around them vigorously rubbing your stomach, there's a good case for management to put
