Agreed. I owe a beer to whoever thought of BEM. It's saved precious brain cycles thinking of names. At first I was like what is this bem__opinion--rubbish but then it clicked and my workflow improved.

In other words: " I know a thing, but I won't say what. I condemn you for not knowing the thing. " Grok is censored, there's no question. Try it yourself. It can't even handle analysing a 19th century woodcut engrav

What Stanford study? If you mean the one titled "Generative ML and CSAM", I can't see any mention of your claim in that study. Care to explain? https://fsi.stanford.edu/publication/generative-ml-and-csam-

Agreed. My recent side projects involve lots of thinking over days and weeks. With AI we can set high bars and do complex original stuff. Obviously boilerplate and common patterns are slop slap without much thinking. That's why you br

Plot twist. The comment you love is the cynical one, responding to someone who clearly embraces the new by rising above caution and concern. Your GPT addition has missed the context, but at least you've provided a nice little paradox.

> " the optimal path is somewhere in between " I think this is the correct answer. Also we technically never stop learning. There's always some new coding trick that alluded us until AI spits it out. My 2 cents: Switch t

> nobody is using it to sort issues for importance True, and I'd add the reminder that AI doesn't care. When it makes mistakes it pretends to be sorry. Simulated emotion is dangerous IMHO, it can lead to undeserved trust. I a

Perhaps oversimplified. The manager might not want you tethered to his/her in-box like a puppy on a leash. "When things happen", sounds risky. You don't want to be drip-feeding emails about individual things as they happ

I'm still on Windows 10, and the only issue I have is the huge nag-screen promoting Windows 11 that appears sometimes when I boot up. No option to say "don't show again". If anyone knows how to permanently disable this i

Similarly I leave Cursor's AI in "ask" mode. It puts code there, leaving me to grab what I need and integrate myself. This forces me to look closely at code and prevents the "runaway" feeling where AI does too much

I'm getting a little popping on Firefox Windows, which disappears if I remove the kick step on second row of the default bosa nova. Nice work anyway, the UI is immediate and instant play.

I presume there's no actual loading happening, it's just a timer. Real loading spinners aren't fun, but fake ones are next level bad. Not sure why anyone would deliberately put themselves through this experience.

It's just manipulated photos. No need to panic. Everyone knows photos can be easily faked. The alarmist response serves no purpose. AI itself can be tasked to make and publish fake photos. Will you point pitchforks at the generators of

Wouldn't it follow that those "things" we're pointing to aren't really "things" because they're all leaking and fuzzy? Begging the question, what ends up on a list of things that do exist?

Perhaps if it measured depth it could detect "flat surface" and flag that in the recorded data. Cameras already "know" what is near or far simply by focusing.

Ok good, I'm checking out the CSS clock demo. Looks interesting, although I'm probably not the target audience, I'd just code it normally. I may revisit and see what else it can do.

The alternate strategy is loyalty to "the business" rather than any particular person. When you're invested in the success of the business above all else, and you make that known, you'll carve out a position where you&#x
