I know this is a cute anecdote, but will you take yours with you when you get buried? And this is assuming that you live in a place where your gravesite won’t be reused by someone else a few generations later. If not chances are it’ll eithe

I think that we're going to see a lot of these initiatives in the coming years. I know a lot of non Europeans, and even a lot of Europeans outside of non-tech Enterprise IT might be sleeping on this a little, but there are some serious

Could you be taking the word "writer" to mean something different than the author? In the context of the article what I got from that line was that it would be easier to teach a waiter to be a food critic/journalist than to t

One of the first things the Rowboat does after coming out of his princess Aurora sleep is to dissolve democracy and replace it with a military dictatorship because he gets sick of free people not just following his opinion. This happens in

Aren’t you sort of agreeing with me though? If you have to actively brute force your way around safe guards, that you don’t know what are, is it really a good method? From the answers you (and the others) have obtained, however, I’m not con

GPT seems to get improvements of trap questions when they reach social popularity. Even the free version of ChatGPT now knows that a kilogram of feathers weighs the same as a kilogram of lead, and it didn’t always know that. I’m not sure th

I think the whole environment thing in Python is sort of a thing of the past. I got into Python after containers were the default, but I can see why the environments would’ve been brilliant before that. Today they feel more like a really te

We do with Typescript what a lot of people do with Python. Handle most things with Typescript and then contract off the really compute heavy parts to C\C++ (slowly moving to Rust). I’ve worked extensively with both Python and JavaScript and

They can be quite handy in trade school where students can take a picture of a manual, or a tool, and have their phones read the manual or instructions out loud to them. You could do so on a laptop, but it's not like there is really ro

Well, my parents didn’t go with me. So no. I’m under no illusions that my children won’t do something similar though, and I’m not certain our plans will even be possible to implement without bans. It’s the old dilemma of sort of having to f

In Denmark we are on the brink of banning smartphones in schools. Not because we want to but because all the science point toward them being dangerous. I’m personally not on the hardliner side, but I’ve yet to see a single argument as to wh

Does ChatGPT “have it”? I thought it made stuff up and that the magic it does is being very good at making the stuff up. We’ve had it come up with solutions using entirely made up functions. They had names that sounded like something Micros

We build a proof-of-concept backend replacement for what is essentially “SharePoint being used as a DB with a frontend by people who don’t know how to use SharePoint” and was a nice experience. We also build it in a few other languages, C#,

In Denmark it’s because we still have diesel trains from the 80-90ies because their replacements didn’t work. (Don’t ask). I’m not sure the electrics they plan on implementing will have the same issue.

They know. A pretty basic part of any sort of management course I’ve ever encountered is getting to know everyone is expendable. It’s simply down to a matter of cost. What you do with that information, however, is very individual. That bein

Yes and no, the terrible attempts to build a new front-end are, but the old front-end that runs on python with Pylons (I believe) as it’s “front” isn’t. I like react, and I love typescript, but sites like Wikipedia, old.Reddit.com, stackove

I think it’s more a matter of how the JS community has grown in general. The whole “class” thing is something a lot of us brought into it when we came from other OOP languages, but in 2023 it is very rare that it is “better” to build a “cla

Codeflo answers it from the security perspective, but I’ll add a little to it in that WebAssembly doesn’t want to replace JavaScript. At least not currently, but it wasn’t always like that and there has been a long road of getting to this p
