Or equally, you wouldn't expect a word processor to refuse to print morally questionable material. The morals that leading models like ChatGPT are also aligned to a very American puritanism - ChatGPT will refuse to discuss sex, for exa

This seems to be getting pendantic about nomenclature. There is no "true serverless", there is only the usage of the word that the majority of people use, which is to mean server-as-a-service. Nobody suggested it's a way to a

This is an odd argument. I'd bet the environmental impact of a battery farm chicken is less than a free-roaming chicken, in terms of hectares of land use, feed (less energy expended from movement), water use. So if you are vegetarian f

That computer scientists think that they are even close to replicating biology and the mammal brain with AI is complete hubris. This is biology inspired engineering, it's not like we are building brains out of silicon here.

There is some debate about whether or not to prepare formula with 70C/160F water. The NHS in the UK for example, says to do so (under "Reducing the risk of infection"): https://www.nhs.uk/conditions/baby&

Not for me. It's readable, but my brain has to do more work. When I get to "money-rather" my brain trips up slightly, and then I'm confused until the next dash, then I go back and figure it out. All possible and dealt wi

The only thing I don't like about Svelte is the reactive blocks, prefixed with $:. There are a number of gotchas, like updating complex objects, which make things a bit...implicit rather than explicit.
