I did a rewrite of a 30 year old bit of perl/php2 over the last year. Not knowing why things were the way they were was really useful for the younger team members and me to get familiar with the codebase and the business context.

The boss doesn't have the problem with their behavior. It's easier to change how you react to something than to change others. I'm not excusing the behavior, it's just one solution is a lot easier to achieve.

This person needs to consider mindfulness meditation. It almost seems like they are assuming some catastrophe is around every corner. If your boss says "hey got a moment to chat" you have a choice in how you react to the informati

I've been removing browns and mustard yellows from my late 70's house for the last 5 years. I'm up for a more subtle colour palette.

Art takes effort. Training models and feeding them information takes effort. AI is not magic. Art is just getting another toolset.

Events my dear boy, events! Something is always happening somewhere, and with social media there's always a trace of it.

Well you should roll back to the time of the missile gap, where Kissinger helped get a lot of nukes built for political reasons more than anything. Raytheon has adds on subway stations in DC for a reason. Messaging works.

I generally agree, however I would offer a view that if you compare the internet to a library. Then it's still a big open place if you're willing to go looking. It's just so many people are so lazy these days they never get i

Short answer is no. CO2 is sitting at about 400ppm( parts per million(. So take a million things, say golf balls, and paint 400 of them red. The rest white. Put them in a container, then search for the red balls. The goal is to get at leas

Big Triangle (UCI) will never let that happen. They have a stake in keeping that technology supressed. Just like big oil and the electric car. :P

I pay 80 cents for the same as you. I only have 1 domain on route53. But I do also have a Lambda and API_GW mixed in there that get's infrequent to zero use.

I really liked this movie as a kid. I feel it won't live up to my memory. Though I do like the premise. I think there could be a cool remake there.

I would think the strategy would be to encourage low impact fraud with lazy compliance and making a customer whole (Credit card chargebacks). And then hunt out and destroy high impact fraud. With the intent to incentivize and train criminal

Extracting u238 from 235 is a hard process. Using flourine gas, it requires you to turn an ore, to a metal, then to gas and then back to metal. If terrorists can get that done they should quit terrorism and just open a chemical plant

It burns and produces a toxic gas, which is kinda borderline under the CWC. Also it's not meant to be used against human targets. In the military it's intent is as use to create cover via smoke. The smoke launchers on APC's a

You should look into the US's use of white phosphorus in Fallujah. It was pretty rough going there for a few years.

Oh I totally agree. I anything this artwork deserves the prize for the conversations and controversies it'll generate. There's so many critics who'll get column inches out of slagging of AI art until things settle down.

I like and approve of analogue photography. I don't really like digital. It makes most images now. But large format photography is a challenge and requires a lot of skill, you have to get it right there at the moment of capture. There&

I like the image. However, it looks like an oil painting, but I think it's a print stretched on canvas like you see in coffee shops. So it's a digital creation. Whilst not any less of a way to create art. I like classical mediums,

There really aren't any sadly. Maybe cast magnesium, like in sewing machines. It'd be better if the printer was built out of some bio-polymer plastic so it just fell apart after 20 years. But we're rapidly getting to a paperl

I would offer the view, that for teams flush with money, everything you said is great. But if you're a solo dev or in a small team, deployments and finding the correct balance is actually tricky to manage. Developers created a solution
