In most countries operating as a limited company would solve that. The "consequences" as a personal freelancer would involve paying some more tax, which is not desirable, but is an option.

I am not so familiar with the uk. It seems you are right. From what I read it is possible, but you have a less beneficial arrangement, since you pay more tax. > You’ll need to ensure you pay the correct PAYE tax and National Insurance (N

The company going bankrupt could be the equivalent to death in medicine. I think you hit a good analogy with medicine, since death is not the only bad scenario. Following this analogy, technical debt could be akin to having to medicate for

At least in Germany, this means you will pay more taxes that you wouldn't otherwise, not that you would go to prison. I think it happens if more than 80% of your yearly revenue comes from a single client. You can always start a company

You can operate as a company. Those apply if you are an individual freelancer only.

You could put an additional layer between the LLM output and the user, and filter than. Maybe an additional model trained to detect or even rewrite "offensive" content.

Defining data structures first and then the rest of the program as operations between those data structures. If possible using types, and keeping as much as possible pure (no side-effects). Makes it easier to reason about, and to check for

While not an option for everyone, if you have a server with ssh access you can do: git init --bare /path/to/repo.git on the server. Then locally you git clone that repo with a ssh url. It does not have any visual MR

Coffee is diuretic. Pineapple or asparagus might have the same effect. But maybe unnoticeable because they don't keep you awake :) I switched to decaf and can enjoy this pleasure without a bad sleep.

They can use OpenAI's output (like a lot of models already do), or train on a curated subset (books) or other media (movies).

Unless I am missing something, it would seem AI is available in both locations. I do not see how anything changed.

I am a software engineer and I still use Figma to be in design mode. Messing around with how a gradient/shadow looks or moving elements around is way quicker graphically than with code. It helps me not default to things that are easy t

You might like Obsidian. It fits this mental model very well, and is all local. I used to do exactly what you mention, and having a better interface now, but without lock in to a company has worked very well for me.

In figma you set the export options for different layers (say png of x resolution, and svg), and you can export them all at once. Unless I am missing something, this should solve your problem.

Thanks for your reasoned answer. I agree with what you are saying. A couple more comments, not to correct anything but simply for conversation. > Btw there is a third option beyond "scientific knowledge" and "faith" T

Upvoted. I am quite positively surprised. While not all books might be online, less of them are missing than I thought.

Good points. I especially like the claustrophobia one in planes. On the other side, there are textbooks about "emotions". I own a Cognitive Behaviour Therapy manual (seemed interesting) that goes step by step through how to conduc

Not contradicting you, but simple concepts are often the most groundbreaking. Finding the way to simplify something complex clearly is the hallmark of clear thinking (and Maths is laser-focused thinking). IMO most people think of statistics

Very interesting point. I wonder: are subjective experiences knowledge? Not scientific knowledge. One one side they are part of who we are. On the other side, same as an airplane does not copy a bird 100%, it makes sense that to make a mach

Books are fantastic. I definitely would judge a person that has books for display only. It is easy to tell too. Books are not only novels and the best sellers you find at airports. You can check a fact or a chapter of a textbook to learn or

The approach Elm uses is every event goes through a main "router", no exceptions. If you want to do sth special on the account page modal scroll, you issue a specific event for that, and deal with it in the same way as any other.

I read somewhere that growth hormone gets released after a proper nap (not just rest, maybe 30 min or so). Body builders, and actors preparing for roles where they bulk up need to take several naps a day. I don't have a source handy, u

You are agreeing with OP. You could evaluate the quality of ChatGPT because you could write the code yourself.

IMO Lego are the gold standard of instructions. From what a remember, IKEA also does labeled bags with a small subset of pieces. While I think IKEA instructions are clear enough, they feel frustrating at times, while Lego feels very satisfy

This is assuming that the more money is spent in development the more value you get out of the game. That is a big assumption, maybe true for very established game genres.

Well, charlatans can take over any term by misinterpreting. We do not need to get along with their misinterpretation, though.
