We might not be able to wish it away, but we can, as a society, decide to not utilize it and even actively eradicate it. I honestly believe that llm's/ai are a net negative to society and need to be ripped out root and stem. If to

It’s strange to read comments about people “cheating” using graphing calculators, as I can’t remember a single time where one would have helped me in a single class. That might be because I majored in maths and everything at that level is

Are you in Madison/Milwaukee or outside of it? I only ask because I live in Madison and 62.50 would be considered low for a C#/VB developer. I'd suggest pricing similar to what the local contract agencies are charging. Maybe

My department (for the most part) has a "no subscription" policy when it comes to most things, especially tools. I love using ReSharper and 0xDBE (possibly the number two application in my toolbox), but it will be hard to justify

The weird thing is that he's advocated ditching the application in favor of either a custom written or customized off the shelf product, it's more so that upper upper management said "if it's still making us cash, why ch

I wouldn't disagree that you and I could build a wall that would be fine for a thousand years, but could either of us build a wall that could be used daily for a large part of that time? I realize the idea of using a wall is awkwardly

I for one welcome our new hashing overlords. On a serious note though, despite GHash.IO having announced it will not seek to break the 51% line, is there a method by which another mining pool can use this fact to their advantage, a roundabo

Off topic: Have you used this at all? If so what's your take on it? I've heard about it and that's pretty much it, but got the gist that it's more of a "toy" development environment than anything else. --No off

At my current job we didn't have any kind of version control for our source,(not even a sharepoint to dump things into).I spent some time trying out a whole bunch of different intalls and finally settled on Gitlab. It's pretty nic
