The only thing that truly matters is this: When software engineers make mistakes dividing by 0 and end up with Exceptions being raised or NaNs being output, they'll usually blame themselves. When the results are wrong numbers all over

Looks very good. Just a note. It was really hard to find how to sign up. EDIT: and I still haven't found how to sign in in the desktop app.

> The "agile" development we're stuck with today is a joke Are we really? The whole industry has moved on a good 10 years ago. If you feel stuck with agile, you should probably change job.

At least I never saw anyone arguing that the only alternative to git was shell scripts. Wait. Wouldn't that be a good idea?

I think what gave AI away the most was mixed styles. If one part of the painting is blurred, and another part is very focused, you can tell it's AI. People don't do that. I got all of Jack Galler's pictures wrong though. The

There is some optics thing that looks cool, but it doesn't say how the image is actually recorded. Then there is the whole "neural" part. Do these get "enhanced" by a generative AI that fills the blur based on the m

First thought as well. Apart from “cool.tips”, it makes everything sound like you’re on a patreon page.

Honestly... It's not that terrible... The comments are really harsh. I don't understand the need to label it as bad. It's just stupid. Lots of museums of amateur art exist around the world and don't just shit all over th

I worked at a onsen for a month in 2004. I was an intern learning Japanese so they were easy on me, but the ladies working there were doing 6.30am to 9.30pm, every day (including weekends), no pause. The hotel owned the apartments they live

This doesn’t take into account the fact that some people just close the website, saving countless minutes of rabbit hole browsing… Oh and 5 seconds is unrealistically high.

overthinking some more: your idea is great but it removes the one feature that classic recipes have: sequencing. You can have the best of both world, though, if the branches in your tree had some kind of timing associated. Like when you mak

Not only is this a metric that doesn’t make any sense, simply floating the concept that this metric corresponds to anything in real life is harmful. Teams are social constructs, and you simply cannot apply an algo to some observable code me

And yet, people talk about productivity all the time because they can feel it. People say: "oh I am much more productive with C# than I am with Python". Or: "This guy is one of the most productive engineer I know". But t

Why would you though? Differentiating by hand is not difficult at all, and graphing a curve and its derivative is a really good way to teach what a derivative actually is. Integration is harder, obviously, and it is a pain point for sure. E

I am all for nostalgia and stuff, but one item I don't miss is the cassette. These things failed all the time, the tape would get stuck in annoying places, and then you'd end up with 10 meters of tape to try and rewind without tyi
