This is the one great downfall of the system :(

I personally never moved away from the colour coded post-it-note-stuck-to-the-monitor system. Requires little to no thought and has unparalleled security and privacy out the box

As time passes I’m more certain in the belief that the internet will end up being a licensed system with insanely high barriers to entry which will stop your average dev from even being able to afford deploying a hobby project on it. Your i

I know what you mean it just feels a bit inhumane to me. Sort of like defining a value for a living being and then determining that they fell beneath said value.

Ah mate I can’t relate more to the offshore component. I had a very sad experience where I recently had to let go of an offshore team due to them providing devs that essentially ‘junior with copilot’ but labelled as a ‘senior’. Time and tim

Yeah, I’m from a council estate, mate… Edit: there is no need to be jumping to stark conclusions which only add to the division being spread throughout the world. If you disagree that’s fine but it’s quite telling that your response isn’t w

That was my thinking, too, but life has taught me that I am a blithering idiot who is often wrong ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Not sure if you are referring to the US meaning of soda (as in pop in the UK) or actual soda water (essentially fizzy water with sodium bicarbonate in it). If it is the latter can I ask what this is based on? Genuinely interested, not being

It’s an example, it’s not a mutually exclusive situation. The point is that people are busy pointing the finger at each other instead of the people whom are paid to actually improve their lives.

In a word, division. The UK is so divided that people are too busy pointing the finger at each other to realise the root cause of the deterioration of our quality of life is entirely generations of mismanagement of the public purse. Instead

Oh I agree with you entirely, not in disagreement at all. Just highlighting the absurdity of the world that this is where we are. I was discussing with my partner recently the fact that I believe this is all heading to a licensed, centralis

Very feasible solution I guess the only issue is that we now have to add friction for legitimate users which will only accelerate their migration to AI summaries at the top of the page.

This has to be a joke, right?

I wonder the same thing and, if anyone does, what on earth are they consuming/can I have some of it, please? > ushering in a new Golden Age of innovation, human flourishing Seriously, at this point in the timeline of human evolution

No, nothing to do with hysteria. We simply have not had access to the substance long enough to be able to accurately say what the long term effects on health are and I cannot help but to assume that there has been a lot of unnatural process

It allows you to add some pressure to the patty while providing it a restricted space in which it can expand. By doing so the ingredients seem to form a much stronger bond (from my experience). I used to do the same with beef when I ate it.

The problem with Beyond Meat is that it is insanely expensive. I could buy a free range, organic and grass fed beef burger for the price of their ultra processed burger. Don’t get me wrong, as a vegetarian, I think they taste nice. They are

Probably an article written by an LLM which has been instructed to look _more human_. I guess time will tell if this is a new ‘thing’ people do ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Second this, my fiancé and I were flabbergasted at the seeming mishmash of 90’s tech and the occasional futuristic building when we were there. The thing that blew my mind more than anything was the archaic financial tech in place. No chip

I have to disagree in that you would stop using the app if you learn a language. Learning is a lifelong task and becoming proficient in a language does not mean you will stay proficient in a language. It takes constant refreshing in order t

Yeah, I really don’t get all the hate towards DuoLingo on this site. Granted, it isn’t going to make you fluent alone but it is very good at keeping you sharp and getting your feet wet. Name one sole app/course which will teach you abs

This is correct. You do not need to register a business for VAT in the UK unless you hit a specific threshold of income (I think £80k was the figure when I last checked)

Yeah I got asked for feedback and offered a refund when I cancelled. Never got any reply after. Guess it was AI slop

Sorry it wasn't entirely clear that I was by no means saying the web in its current form is anything close to what it could/should be. My main point was that, by making backdoors for MCPs there will be a new possible entry point f
