I just played the Claude attempt and found that the "fence" in level 3 doesn't actually obstruct either the dog or the sheep. Otherwise pretty fun.

It's worth keeping a toe in the water, but for now the productivity hype seems way overblown. I recently asked Claude to help deserialize a JSON Post request in an asp.net web API so that absent or null JSON properties get set to the c

As I understand it these variants are mostly mutually comprehensible, so you may as well learn modern standard Arabic. The differences come down to pronunciation and the odd extra word.

Nicely up-pedanted. Ultimately I meant that saying stuff like "I don't want food with chemicals in it" is sloppy, because food itself is made of chemicals.

I suspect chasd00 is making a pedantic point that the atoms are smashing together in nature. Because nature is just everything that happens. Although pedantic, it does challenge what we really mean when we say "natural". Just li

US, UK, Canada, and Australia, certainly. But almost all European countries are multi-party. I suppose there's an argument that some voting systems are "more democratic" than others, in the sense that they allow/incentiv

The opposite. European values are closely tied to enlightenment and the republicanist ideas that came out of the French revolution.

From a UK perspective (and I'm not a CEO or anything) it looks pretty volatile over there. Tariffs, radical changes to government funding, widespread corporate overhauls... . Predictability is surely desirable when considering dependen

You'll have to do better than linking the Western Journal on Hacker News. It's a rebrand of "Western Journalism", which has been repeatedly highlighted as a source of fake news, misinformation, and right-wing conspiracy

You also have to wonder why Vance was less bothered by Putin not continually saying "please" as he was by Zelenskyy not continually saying "thank you".

I repeat: language obviously matters, and it's one of many factors Trump/Vance exploited to create an intimidating atmosphere. But it's not such an overwhelming factor that it would make Zelensky turn to Russia.

Yep, each group has one or more moderators. Like Reddit I guess but no up/downvotes. There's some automated moderation as well - it doesn't let you post links (which is mad) and I read that at one point there was a censoring

Forums per book is a good start, but I find that the groups are a bigger draw in Goodreads. They have a more personal touch and allow you to discuss broader topics and get recommendations from accounts you know and trust. For example I'

The best part of Goodreads for me is the communities. You can join a group with monthly book reads, and participate in their forums. Do you have any plans to do something similar?

This comes across as highly dismissive. The man can speak three languages very competently. That's two more than Vance and three more than Trump. Obviously language matters, but for Ukrainians democracy and sovereignty matter more.
