My TL;DR: Some really interesting conclusions here, though nothing particularly surprising to anyone familiar with SEO practices. In particular the use of SEO techniques to target "data voids" to help own particular terms or phras

I've tried filmmaker mode and it is just another kind of bad smart TV setting, making everything way to dark instead of way too bright. Turning of most "features" of these TVs seems to be the only sane solution. Of course per

This was one of the funniest things going around the Physics department when I was in school. I can assure you it is older than 2007. 1998 or ‘99 iirc.

What? Why? They invest based on market cap for starters. Second, no fund managers call their unit holders to decide what to buy, the suggestion itself is ridiculous.

This is extremely shallow Youtube content that amounts mostly to a stream of stock video shots with a voice over. Blackrock and Vanguard have the largest market weighted index funds. By definition they simply hold the market. They are compl

While I was skeptical about this video and the tone it opens up with did nothing to help with that, it is actually worth a watch.

Are you really arguing ChatGPT is already super-intelligent? What is your basis for this conclusion? And many people argue against the idea that GPT is already super intelligent or even can become so at this stage of development and underst

There are certainly a lot of problems with software design and UI design is a key part of that problem, but there is plenty of blame to go around. The software developers in these comments seem to strongly believe that UX research holds a d

Not really sure what a CS degree has to do with quality or engineering. Neither is something covered much by that degree and rarely is there much emphasis put on either in most careers. I can't see how we've established any kind o

A lot of people in the comments saying that it comes down to an over generalization of the word "caramelize". I would argue that this is instead representative of the very low quality of the vast majority of most recipes which are

This presents as a bit of an unintentional strawman against demonstrating any kind of coding during an interview process. Live coding, if earnestly used only as a filter, does not inherently need to focus on speed or performance. It doesn

It continues to be such a sad state of affairs. We are constantly reinventing and repackaging well known bad practices. I recall getting publicly lambasted on here for daring to question the wisdom of an ActiveRecord-like data layer for a f
