If someone accuses you of using AI because of em-dashes, reply with something condescending like "I'm sorry you were poorly educated, but some of us can and do read books." It does wonders to put jackasses in their place.

Yes, had SCOTUS ruled differently in Citizens United, the scope of the ruling would have likely been narrowly focused. Every time SCOTUS makes a ruling, there are thousands of extremely talented activist lawyers that immediate begin working

The problem isn't so much investors losing money, it's if this kills the economy. A lot of elites are now unemployed with nothing better to do thanks to AI. Historically speaking, populist uprising are easily squashed except when

I don't think there will be any bailouts for these AI companies. There's no political will to do so in both parties. The grizzly alternative is a DeFlock movement, but instead of cutting down poles, it will be people's heads.

The charge-back penalties are going to be hilarious and hopefully bankrupting.

For languages, I'd say Gleam and OxCaml are going to become more and more popular on here. Not sure what else. In the industry, Ruby often (but not always) pairs with Rails. Ruby+Rails exists in a sweet spot of making most of the munda

Pointing out hypocrisy is a losing strategy in politics. I implore you to continue with this strategy.

Gavin Newsom should take a page from all the LinkedIn CEOs and force Claude down everyones throats or be dismissed. I don't live in California, but speeding up the government with AI would be something that solidifies Newsom's 202

This is not true. It is fast as a general purpose hash table, but claiming it's the fastest across all datasets and workloads is silly.

The government is not going to enforce this, the game theory does not work in their favor. The SCOTUS has made it exceptionally clear mathematics and software are protected by the First Amendment. The Atomic Energy Act of 1954 tries to ma

In service to the point, if you're _really_ smart—like definitely going to grad school smart—you apply to universities with the best faculty for your intended area of study. Often that is a sole professor at a university you've ne

If it's been 10+ years and an employer wants your SAT scores, 1600 is as good an answer as any. Anyone asking for that data point doesn't actually care about the accuracy, they just want to see if you'll compliantly jump thro

The default garbage collection tunables are also from 30 years ago. Adding the GCMH (Garbage Collector Magic Hack) package resolves much of the slowdown, and native compilation covers the remaining gap quite nicely.

It's only fraud if a person signed their name stating such. Their name being attached to the commit is itself, irrelevant, as their is no way to submit a patch otherwise. You could use a fake name, but you're just moving this fr

For most people, they will use the models included in iOS and Android on their phone. When all these datacenter projects halt (as is their trajectory), at some point someone is going to ask about what to do with the unused GPUs. Those will

This is still very legal in Texas (provided it's at night). Knowing that you can be killed is a very powerful deterrent for most criminals.

There are carve-outs to allow for governments to make exceptions, but it's besides the point. If the government were to hold themselves to account, they would fine themselves some amount N, and pay itself N using your taxes. It also wa
