I keep wanting to get into Raku. It has such a rich pedigree of everything learned from decades of Perl, in a clean slate. It seems to suffer from lack of adoption but it seems better than *sh in every way except for ubiquity.

Yes - it's going into the air. The water isn't removed from the water cycle, but the problem is that fresh water was removed from the upstream part of the cycle before it could be used by the land. The term is water diversion, whe

I would like to see a scraper tarpit that provides an endless stream of sub pages all filled with model training poison. Enough inaccurate or inappropriate material from enough tarpits will make this practice less profitable.

Isn't that super unlikely? It seems like there are planets in most star systems. Even given what's been called a "gross underestimation" of 10^24 stars in the (observable) universe, even if you define some habitable zone

Why do orgs like this bank sometimes also ban GPL3 for internal use, even if it's not part of the product?

An alternative might be to write or find a gate level simulator, then write a library for each IC like hex inverter, quad nand, etc. Then you could pick up where Ben starts at the pin level, without messing with wires and breadboards, and g

Faith what now? Yes, it's decent product but... It's a $3T company. It got there by extracting the maximum possible from customers, app developers, and labor. They are well known for exploiting offshore workers [1] many times over

Apple didn't learn those lessons with Apple Script either: there is a rigid sequence of characters that represents a valid program and if you're off by one character, tough. If you're lucky, the tool will guide you to what it

So there's three revenue streams, all of which are incompatible with offline usage: locking and upsell on cloud services, exfiltrating and selling your data, and showing you ads. In an ideal world, that would be a triple decker antitru

The last thing I want is extremely private or sensitive documents being given to some cloud service for training data. No thanks. Just authenticate the parties and record their agreement.

Yes and the legislature after that. These are all smart people, so it boggles the mind to wonder how they can install a totalitarian regime without knowing the next two steps in the playbook.

It appears they think their shitty info/nav/tainment is a key distinguisher and that CP/AP threatens what's maybe the only way for them to stand out among a field of boring, undistinguished boxes. In reality the only car

Citizens United v FEC is probably the fattest root cause of it. Of course, no one on the gravy train will vote to limit their own bribery.
