There is nowhere someone can live for $200/mo, as they could in some lesser developed countries. The floor has been established by speculation, building codes, and minimum services. It sounds like a good idea to make sure all dwellin

WASM has a lot of shortcomings. You can't even update the DOM without doing a worker dance.

That's fine for German, but in source code I don't want any variable called LegalProtectionInsuranceCompanies. It takes up too much brain space for me to parse and understand each time. Much rather it was called "lpic"

Code golf variable names are intolerable. But there's a happy medium. If you name all your variables like "Rechtsschutzversicherungsgesellschaften", note that I am still a violent psychopath and I know where you live.

One of the shooters was a conservative who became disenchanted with trump and gave $20 to a Democrat.

Both times were by a disgruntled right-wing/Republican and not a left-wing/Democrat. (and no, a single $20 donation to a Democrat does not make someone a Democrat).

I've listened to what he said, firsthand and frequently. He's deliberately divisive and uses racist and violent rhetoric whenever possible (even in the last week of the election). 8 years ago I was open to attacks against him be

It's difficult for me by myself to just, and if the stars align I might be able to get a second person to just, but any group of N>2 it is impossible.

The government would run the existing, already-innovated fabs, and not be responsible for any new innovations. Just keep the lights on and the factory producing.

Oops! That was an error of manual conversion. The actual plugin converts it to "↑13.6 joules". Thanks for spotting, fixed it!

Yes, that's currently what people do (including journalists and science explainers), and it does not work just fine. In fact it's kind of unbelievable that an intelligent and educated person would defend "inventing random un

The author is asking for overly-precise numbers in scientific papers , because the science data publishing/sharing/reproducibility process is broken. I won't argue against this specific case. But in almost any other context

Midwits treat these as gospel. But when you automate something, you make it 10x more efficient, and this opens up the possibility of using the automation 10x more often. Adherents to xkcd/1205 are like "don't waste your tim

I mean sure, it can make things up just like any fake CEO can. I can ask ChatGPT for a list of goals and values right now and they might even sound reasonable. But there's no discernment, no conviction. No actual 'seeing',

If you have a strategy and need plans, maybe you could use an AI (probably not LLMs). If you need a strategy, maybe you can feed high-level goals into an AI and it could come up with one (though it will have difficulty thinking outside its
