I respect your tastes but, as a human, I like the objectivity in the article. I actually couldn't care less about the backstory and I tend to skip articles that wander around without getting to the point. I prefer to read a book when I

You essentially made the libertarian argument without realizing it. According to this line of thinking, we should leave as little as possible in the hands of government exactly because it's either bad already or it will eventually be b

I made sure to steer clear of Tesla and now SpaceX across my investments. It's not that Musk is an incompetent leader or the companies are bad, but his reality distortion field creates valuations and schemes designed to extract as much

I once beat it in 27 minutes. I didn't know it was supposed to be hard at the time! I briefly checked speed run records now and that time would have put me in the top 50 "no glitches" ranking! I'm not that good at games.

Like most of the South, where I proudly live, it's a place where the poor and rich live very different lives. It has pretty bad places (just like the UK), but it has areas with great quality of life and is far from "horrible"

Being a Chief Technology Officer is no longer the job. We now need an end-to-end AI orchestrator for the corporation in the Chief Agentic Officer role. Dana Lawson is now obsolete and must be let go.

This is a truly poor article that says much but contains little in terms of original and interesting thinking. I regret having read it.

If there's any noticeable difference, it'd be due to lower latency and not increased bandwidth. I'd be cool with 5MB/s and extremely low latency if that was an option.

They don't make decisions like that out of wisdom and restraint. I imagine they got calls from Vanguard and others after index funds themselves got calls from institutional investors.

Grok is pretty good. It really excels when the results can be improved by deep online search. It tends to be more aggressive in looking things up than competitors. I use it in certain situations.

Alternatives come and go, SQL stays. It's not that I like or dislike SQL, it is just that it has such raw power and mature tooling/resources, I wonder what an alternative could even offer me. It's like C. It does such a great

We're going to see a 180 degree turnaround and a new metric soon: the less you spend, the better your yearly review. Going above quota will require syncs, forms, manager and VP approval etc.

I've actually identified a real compiler bug that led to a compiler fix. But then, a broken clock is right twice a day :).

I love C# and in every iteration we're getting more and more features to get C-like performance in a lot of scenarios. C# does it really well because if your problem isn't performance/memory-constrained, you can ignore these

I'll start downvoting all posts that are about criticizing something solely because it was "made by AI". Humans using AI can make great things. If the article is bad, just say "this is a bad article without coherent argu

I would go further... This project gives a rare opportunity for a young engineer to learn to build truly mission critical, resilient software while requiring complete, top to bottom understanding of the software and hardware stack.

I don't agree with the notion of caning children, but... Why only males are eligible to be caned? That doesn't sound fair within the framework, girls can be bullies too.

I played the original Sierra games on a green CGA monitor. Erana's peace... Good times. I don't think these games are better than the modern ones. But I wonder if the next generation's memories will be as strong.
