I mean that these are great things to fight for, but I think it can't be the full horizon of someone's life. Because these fights don't justify themselves with their own importance. Why is it important to fight climate change

I agree 100% on the conclusion: nobody's driving. In particular, the fact that teens are sad is disturbing. If teens (do you remember how happy and fun life was when you were teens?) are sad, imagine how they will become when they

Interesting that they use the word "post-medieval" instead of "modern"... And they mention 17th century, well after the middle ages ended. In fact, such superstitious practices were almost non-existent during middle ages

Isn't the main problem with NLP research now that you'll need a ton of money to run your experiments? How can an "average" PhD researcher hope to validate their hypothesis if they need several thousand dollars per test?

Can you explain better the difference? I am trying to figure this out myself for a while...

I am a bit perplexed. Working on bad soil -- okay, that's something to care about. But: the "whistleblower" works in a software company, in the middle of a AI race, where data is a fundamental part of the equation -- no data,

Thank you for this. I'd even say that dependency injection frameworks eliminate the most important thing of dependency injection: explicit dependencies.

To be honest I don't think this is entirely true. I'd say it's more the fact that actually _experimenting_ and _learning_ these kind of things on the field requires very specialized knowledge and a lot of time. I'd be mo

By the same reasoning, the 7-eyed O has now been used more than once, so it deserves a glyph! So the right way to do this is to introduce a new character for the correct glyph, and also leave the current one (perhaps changing the title). Ot

Can you please tell me why it is your dystopian nightmare? I had the opposite feeling.

Sorry for the slightly offtopic question: this page caused Chrome on my mobile phone to freeze completely. I had to reboot my phone, and even after that, I had to figure out a way to close the tab without opening Chrome. Did it happen to so

You are right -- I was referring specifically to SREs in FAANG, which enforce a mandate of maximum 1 deploy to prod per day -- in some case even 1 per week, or less. To be honest, I think there is a threshold, perhaps expressed in terms of

7. 7! This is by far the one that resonates with me the most. But for some reasons SREs think the opposite is true: the longest it takes to get to prod, the better. What a pain.

She could answer: penalty shoot-outs are a relatively recent addition to soccer. Before them... They'd throw a dice. So I guess they always knew that shoot-outs are just a (more exciting?) replacement for a dice roll :)

Don't get me wrong: the reason why both Node and Deno (and probably JavaScript itself!) are so successful is that v8 is a ridiculously good runtime, and libuv is great. Deno did something smart: all the non-web-compatible APIs are unde

I can feel the author, in particular about the mess that is node_modules resolutions (and the fact that it sounds like 99% of "tutorials" - or even package READMEs - about Node seem to be written by someone that didn't really
