No one has ever successfully manipulated Bitcoin and it doesn't offer smart contracts.

Do not attempt to create or run a software company if you're not a developer. Full stop. (See Mark Cuban's repeated warnings and refusal to invest in non dev-lead tech companies.) For non-programmers, it's a way to build soft

Gamma rays penetrate everything and have definitely been known to disrupt computer circuits.

It's a surprisingly great streaming service in a sea of meh. They actually curate and organize the films, creating mini-festivals around a topic, location, genre, period, or director. They also write terrific info on every movie. Non

In the same week we have stories that claim Russia (and the US) has reverse engineered alien spacecraft[0] and that they need spy pigeons. [0] The Age of Disclosure film

You've hit the nail on the head. It's the inability to ship product from a Lisp machine that killed the idea. The fungibility of Lisp all the way down turned each machine into a one-off lab of its own. And this tech arrived afte

Unfortunately, you get what you pay for on this one. Composer can't hold a candle to Sonnet on Cursor. Once you get used to Sonnet's capability for working with code, you'll be half afraid to submit any complex prompt to a le

This article is late to the party. I would hardly call SETI leading edge alien detection tech today. Our best bet would be to look at our recent interstellar visitor 3I/Atlas and to use other modern instruments to detect remnants or si

People have tried (pretended) to talk to dead people as long as people have been around. They've used every tech and tool that was ever invented. Many people claim that they hear or talk to dead people on the regular, know how they thi

I'm surprised there's no Wikipedia entry for this phrase in computing, just "magic number." They definitely exist and are often code smell. A magic word is any special key or text (like "admin") that causes uni

In short, MD files. After stuff works, I canonize the documentation about how it works by having Cursor write all of that in a special folder. Then, I can @reference that folder or a doc in it at the start of a prompt that will need that co

So someone with $60 of capital can now drive on public roads with FSD turned on? What could go wrong? When you get a motorcycle endorsement in the US, the book tells you the #1 cause of motorcycle accidents is riding a bike you don't o

Most people probably don't know what a DJ really does, which is investigate, curate, and catalog a whole library of music and then tailor it to the mood of an event or crowd, moment by moment. This is a feelings-based job that directly

Not really. Paid access gets you more tokens per month on better models. Some models are actually better at coding complex tasks than others. And without tokens, you can't submit anything at all. This is why folks making software produ

Good question. Have you ever noticed how many fashion designers have terrible clothes, or how many hairstylists look they've never had a professional haircut? Maybe it's Shoemaker's Children Syndrome.

I saw a post just today that a YC company exists to add AI to JetBrains products? That's pretty shocking. I mean riding on someone else's platform is always risky, but that's sends a strange signal about what both JetBrains

In practice, few punitive laws are applied to corporations and are mostly used to control real people. This goes even more for the criminal side of law in which corporations cause death but don't receive criminal punishments (at the le

Agreed, and that one wasn't very good. Last time I was in Paris we waited about 3 hours in line until a helpful gentleman came through the line to tell everyone we wouldn't reach the front before they closed for the day. We went t

Like most things that aren't real, this video talks about comfort and safety without showing a wheelchair user in the device. My brother uses a wheelchair and the arm rests, leg rests, brakes, seat cushion, and options for human assist

This is a biased article which argues in favor of DRM (as paywalls) because it is published in a paywalled magazine. Further in, the article admits that such content is already free and sits inside the page source but is obfuscated by runni
