I hope this Pope does not go with a similar approach. This encyclical, in the face of challenges of the Industrial Revolution, focuses almost explicitly on how socialism is unnatural (note that he does not even try to call it unchristian).

Yes, I am not in fact expanding on GPs argument but etymologically attack the premise. Pathos is not learnt. When I clutch my legs at the sight of someone getting kicked in the balls, that’s empathy. When, as now, I write about it, it’s not

Lived context is to me more than online learning. I admit I am not so versed in the space as to be able to anticipate the nature of context in the case of online learning, so, yes, indeed I may change my tune if it somehow makes learning mo

I can confirm. Was driving for a while, impervious to any sign of having a flat tyre before someone on the street signalled me to stop. And that was on a Citroen Saxo, which I don’t think had the suspension of C5 etc. Amazing car, lasted fo

Empathy does not lie in its perception on receipt but in its inception as a feeling. It is fundamentally a manifestation of the modalities enabled in shared experience. As such impossible to the extent that our experiences are not compatibl

I guess if they are so important we should be paying for them. Not that you argue against it per se, but in discussion context.

It looks like you put atheism and agnosticism in the same boat. There’s a certain belief, trust and conviction to lack of a deity in atheism. Not in agnosticism. That state of mind is orthogonal to belief is mostly true. On the other hand ,

I was a Notes user almost 20 years ago, and I liked it because it felt retro, even back then. It was ok, quite weak with audit trails and timestamps for some reason (if I remember correctly, changing the date on your pc and sending an email

I don’t mind schemas and repositories, but I feel it’s a bit backwards. That’s the kind of work I would hope we can avoid with AI.

I would argue that China is just playing the game and EU should do too while it lasts. No time for sophistication in a street fight, this is not chess.

Is html less structured than json? I thought with LLMs the schematic of structure is less relevant than the structure itself.

The question would be whether with AI assistants you need to go through the effort of enforcing MECE or just strive for exhaustiveness and let them sort out repetition. I am also wondering whether there is a signal in repetition or even con

JSON is not schema’d per se and intentionally so. There’s jsonschema which has better expressiveness than inference of a tabular schema, as it can reflect relationships.

Is there any Empire that collapsed without military conquest? You can argue the collapse predated the conquest, but there’s always a conquest to seal the deal.

Lakehouse is an architecture defined to overcome the limitations associated with an immutable object store. It is already in my eyes introducing unnecessary complexity (i.e. at which point do I just need to transition to a proper database,

Based on description I read this more like a framework rather than system design. Are the different pricers for the same product? Is there a dependency graph between pricers and/or their components (e.g. a MC simulation as input, an in

There should be no questioning on matters of personal taste, but I will offer my experience with the 13 FW, which is that build quality is pretty great already, but also you get the option to maintain it longer term, such as changing hinges

My first Linux system too. Back when downloading a distro was hard with available bandwidth, I got it boxed, with quite a few manuals included in the box! Still have them somewhere alongside my copies of free x86 documentation from Intel.

I was also of that opinion for a while, but took the decision to move all things to a dedicated backup service instead. The lock-in with onedrive is palpable. So I swallowed the pill, downloaded all our files (very slowly...) and backed the

I enjoy your thinking and your use of analogy. We agree more than is evident, but you think on an horizon that eludes most, myself included unfortunately. As you say, the psychological torture of mere lifestyle survival overshadows the rati

Thank you for the thoughtful answer. There is a certain amount of cynicism in my post, to match the cynicism of reality unfortunately. Your arguments may be valid, but who cares to rationally think and act when they can easily observe and r

Then again, one could argue that the point of literacy is writing or creating in general. We transfer knowledge so that we can expand on it, not to merely consume it. You allure to it yourself in your concluding statement.
