Tailwind excels when it’s used on reusable components. Anyone handcoding Tailwind for a full page will start to hate it quickly. But you can have the best of both worlds with apply: .card { @apply p-2 rounded shadow text-gray-70

I think basically my internal heuristic is “do I need someone to come HERE to help fix this?” If the answer is no, then maybe call a friend.

I can’t tell if you’re being facetious so apologies if this went over my head, but no, almost certainly not, but the stats in the article don’t give enough context to make that decision.

Another stat which is not particularly helpful out of context. Per mile driven, per per job, per hour of service? Are there any external factors that might influence this (e.g. are a significant proportion of these ambulances getting hit by

That is a fair argument if you consider the Culture to be a collection of civilisations living in harmony, but if the Culture is rather a single entity which supplants the existing civilisation and gradually replaces all of the unique featu

The article covers this. It highlights how Contact is specifically tasked with shaping and forming the development of other species over millenia to 'assimilate' them. By the time a species is ready to be 'assimilated',

Easy to say. But my family lives in a country about 1000 miles away. I can take a coach from Budapest to Oradea (in Romania - the wrong way), and then back to Birmingham, which would take around 36 hours. With no space for my legs, nowhere

Cogito ergo sum ... I think more or less the only thing we can be sure of is that we think. However, I don't think we REALLY know what thinking means, and whether the way we think is categorically different from how an LLM thinks.

I agree it would be very difficult. I think that current LLMs would fail here because I don't think they would be able to make a value judgement about what is 'harder' between 'I drank two beers yesterday' and '

'eldak' is a (rude) slang word for dick—this is the plural (i.e. dicks). Otherwise, Google's got the translation correct here.

Although that’s typically true, a lot of very natural ingredients also have “E numbers” (as we call them in the UK). For example, E164 is saffron, E290 is carbon dioxide, E901 is beeswax, E913 is lanolin. Loads of others are also extracts o

As I understand, the reason down is such an effective insulator is that it traps small pockets of air and it is difficult for warmer or cooler air to circulate through because of that. As a result, if your down blanket were not contained in
