Idk. I think some societies prize it more highly than others. What must it have been like to live in Athens when Plato was running the Academy? What got you permitted to be there wouldn't be SAT scores or grades, it would be curiosity

"being curious" carries a lot of weight here. I mean, I was so curious, I started coding as a kid and got a tech job right out of high school. But I quit it at 19 because it didn't answer any of my questions about life. I mov

There is a definitely a phenomenon visible to anyone who has hired self-taught gunslingers versus companies stocked with highly educated CS grads. Part of it, I think, comes down to motivation and [needing to prove] self-worth when solving

Imagine how kids now will feel when they find out that prompting Claude isn't actually coding.

Joe Shmo committed the wrong config file to production. Innocent mistake. Sally caught it in 30 seconds. We were back up inside 2 minutes. Sent Joe to the margarita shop to recover his shattered nerves. Kid deserves a raise. Etc.

right, this was announced about two weeks ago to some fanfare. So in principle there was no reason not to do it two decades ago? It would've been nice back then. I never heard of any certificate authority offering that.

Funny. I was configuring a new domain today, and for about 20 minutes I could only reach it through Firefox on one laptop. Google's DNS tools showed it active. SSH to an Amazon server that could resolve it. My local network had no idea

I haven't found this to be the case. I use the free plex server on Windows and MacOS, and connect to my home boxes from my phone. Prior to April 2025, I could stream on my phone from my Plex servers anytime. Since the last update, atte

What is "01 second" as quoted above? If it's 1 second, you could possibly conclude that it was intentional. If it's 0.1 second you might think it was an accident and the lock was disengaged.

Tailscale and Plex do not play nicely, particularly since Plex implemented a bunch of shit to try to charge users for accessing their own files outside what it considers a local network. Switching to Jellyfin is on my maintenance list.

That makes a ton of sense actually! I'm excited to give it a try!

This seems really interesting for managing a lot of remote dev boxes or something like that... so, kind of an uneducated question (from someone who isn't heavily involved in actual infrastructure)... I haven't used CF tunnels, and

I'm not angry, I'm just extremely skeptical. If a programming language varied from version to version the way LLMs do, to the extent that the same input could have radically different consequences, no one would use it. Even if the

What you are describing is not natural language programming , it's the use of incantations discovered by accident or by trial and error. It's alchemy, not chemistry. That's what people mean when they say it's not reprod

I feel I'm sort of stuck in the opposite situation of OP. I manage a few massive codebases that I simply cannot trust an AI to go mucking around with. The only type of serious AI coding experience I could get at this point would be to

Standing up here for iceberg, I think a proper wedge with blue cheese and bacon is delicious. The crispness is refreshing. Not as nutritional as other salads, but sure goes well with a steak and a martini.

Thanks for the history. Very interesting. I guess Ontario still isn't interested in trying to farm land further north now..? The last time I was in Australia (15 years ago), I met a French chef in the middle of nowhere in the Northern

in a somewhat related story, I was on a beach in Costa Rica last week, watching some spider monkeys in a palm tree trying to whack open small nuts. Just then, an American family walked up the beach with two teenage boys. They didn't no

Huh. It looks like on 10/2 it will make its closest pass to a planet, Mars, and on that date it also is in a straight line with Mars, Mercury and the sun, while Earth and Venus are roughly opposite each other. Do you know if this sim a

Fascinating! The border between Quebec and Ontario looks like the Mexican border with the US, or the Israeli border with Egypt, but this is all in the same country, Canada. In the US you can see some traces of this between Nevada and Califo

That's not specific to this road. You could probably pick any 50,000 sq km area on the planet besides Bangladesh, and the population density would be several orders of magnitude lower than that of Bangladesh, except for maybe the few l
