If the AI were a human and that human made an image that copied substantial elements of another human's creative work after a careful review of the original creator's work, even if it was not an original copy and no archival copy

I have an n of 1, maybe approximating 2-4 with the anecdotes I've picked up from colleagues over the years, so I can't speak broadly to the law school market. I will say that I went to a state school of moderate rank (certainly no

It doesn't make syncing harder. I've worked for high-performing global teams for DECADES, so this debate is amusing to me. It shows me which companies absolutely cannot scale past a certain point, and which perpetuate terrible com

Yes, and while I am deeply skeptical of many MBA programs' value, the work requirement is one very good thing about b-schools (note I limited my comment to prospective lawyers). I don't mind a major that, by itself, has limited fi

I'll take that a step further: have a personal "business plan" for what you are going to accomplish and treat professional school like a job with that goal as your job description. I went to a non-top-tier law school, but I f

Helix is wonderful. I did make one keybinding change: Switching in and out of Insert mode is CTRL-i so I don't have to wander off to the escape key so often.

I am not a (current) developer, though I have more dev experience than most laypeople. I have enough experience with languages to pick up a new one relatively easily but I’ve never done anything with a functional language. I installed NixOS

That kitty and Calibre come from the same brain is a marvel of the open source world.

Without taking away from the overall project and work that’s gone into it, the UI reminds me unpleasantly of the darkest days of Lotus Notes: things aren’t quite where they should be and they don’t look entirely baked when I find them.

I would hop on a MAX right now and be perfectly happy about it. That’s not to say I don’t hope we get some good lessons from this event, but this could end up being a contractor maintenance issue rather than a manufacturing flaw, for exampl

Everyone is different. I can type 10x faster on a touchscreen keyboard (on a phone). I remember being issued a Blackberry at work after iPhones had firmly established themselves and being horrified about how slowly I had to type. Keep in mi

I would happily switch, but Firefox’s tabs are not sufficient for 2023. Vertical tabs are essential for me, and none of the Firefox plugin-based workarounds come anywhere close to Edge (and Brave). I prefer Firefox as a browser, but as a to

The only thing I get mad at Steam about is that the client updates (baseless accusation incoming) WAY too often and/or desperately needs to have some sort of incremental update system. I am, however, not a game developer. But as a cons

Non-technical, non-idealistic, non-visionary (pick two of three) people starting putting glossy red ribbons on websites with pink lettering and called it Web 2.0. A lot of monumentally good things have come from the last ~20 years of techno

Arguably he also stands to lose a lot if he DID do his job right.

If competition is fierce for leads because there is a glut of workers due to nearly zero requirements to become one, one would expect rates to plummet. Which, I suppose, is why we have a collusion situation here.

The concern is perhaps less one’s ability to “market” a house better than a realtor than it is whether the realtor’s services, both individually and as a combined effort between buyer and seller agents, is worth anything remotely like the f

His documentation has gotten better too! I actually just rebuilt my entire config based on his updated "standard" version. I want to use his "non-starter" config too, bc it seems remarkably powerful, but ... I need more

One more thing: I lost a parent and a very close friend when I was young, so death has been part of life for me for perhaps an unusually long time.

There’s a YouTube series, How To Make Everything (HTME) that was well along this road until a fire destroyed the guy’s studio. He’s restarted in the last year or so. It’s good fun, and showcases how difficult it is even with something as si

So, it took me an inordinate amount of effort to get to this point, but I find managing my nixos laptop to be idiotically easy now. And, to be clear, I'm not a developer. I just want an easy to use config that I can port over to a new

The branding problem here isn't going to be fixed by making a 3d robot. The problem is that it's not entirely clear there is such a thing as "Android." Even in this announcement, they refer to it as the world's bigg

I am hearing a ton of issues with your company’s culture that have nothing to do with WFH. I genuinely hear your concerns as sincere, but, from the outside, all I see are warning lights. Anecdata, but I don’t know where my people, my boss,
