Counterfeiting money would probably be a more viable alternative; provides her income to survive, and is closer to a victimless crime.

On the bright side, I think I’ve finally manage to internalise the meaning of “Kafkaesque”.

Too late for that; the hay-powered biological machine has bolted.

That was my instinctive reaction as well. However once I learnt that the concept of asymptomatic carriers wasn't even known at the time, and that she received negative tests for typhoid, I became less convinced that I would have behave

I’ve needed to construct a chatbot-esque UI on more than one occasion. I used a state-machine on the second time round and it simplified work considerably!

Does this spell the end of any prosecution that relies on tying a router IP address to an identity? Seems like it would be trivial to claim that it was actually an unknown third party, connected via Amazon, that was using the network for &q

Anecdotal but I know someone who works on the software engineering team at Octopus, and in their experience there’s way too much micromanagement, and minimal empowerment from engineers to apply their own judgment. the point being that narra

Given the setup relies on intimidation plates to frighten the crabs into action, we can only assume the future of computers will be "Regularly Intimidated Soldier Crabs".

While you may be correct in this case, I'm not sure what you're claiming is generally true. An equally valid observation is "trying to address social problems with technical solutions is doomed to failure". I wouldn&#x27

Not sure if it was a typo, but I think you’re looking for the word “anecdotal” not “antidotal” (coming from someone who messes these kinda things up all the time)

Mmm yeah I had the same experience. My end conclusion for Golang was "don't use an ORM".

I would have assumed that most people interested in chess engines are a pretty savvy and will do their research before buying anything, making the whole "create a sub-par ripoff" a rather ineffective strategy.

I agree that the design of the 6 regressed from the 4/5, but the build quality is much higher than that of the average android. I'm still using a 6 as my daily phone, which means my phone is closer in generation to the original iP

Building on this, when purist engineers trash Excel, I point out that Excel cell formulas are the only case of Functional Programming going truly mainstream.

I would have thought the nearest competitor to Python was Ruby, JS or Julia, depending on the application.

Just been going through your blog, and I'm in love with your Synchronome clock, which begs the question (apologies if this is answered somewhere): Of all the clocks you own, what's your favourite and why?

It's definitely a risk. That said, I'd argue that a post announcing "Steve Jobs has died" genuinely should rise to the top - it's a huge piece of news after all. This model isn't so much about suppressing exist

Yeah it's definitely a huge risk. It's really a question of whether the expectation of the Schelling point is around quality of meme-worthiness. I think the shorting will help with this, but I think the more critical thing is gett

I think it's a good approach, but it's fundamentally not that different from existing models in that the people who judge a post as "thoughtful" or otherwise have no incentive to think carefully about their judgement. Th

Thanks! I think online content is the obvious place to start for this, but in the long run I think the concept could be applicable to identifying all kinds of things where quality can be hidden by the deluge of information: - high quality s
