No. We do rely on trust . I'm not saying everyone needs to replicate all experiments. This is trivial. If this superconductor is real then people will replicate it. People will publish results and once we have multiple independent ver

Believe is something religious people do. The great thing about science is belief is unnecessary. If someone makes a fantastic claim it is reasonable to be skeptical. Skepticism is not an obstacle when you can prove that your claim is true.

I don't think it looks like a ripoff. A case can easily be made that the pals are similar to animals, and both pokemon and palworld is based on real animals so it makes sense that they look similar. I see lots of pals that look nothing

There are mechanics which discourage leaving the game running. Hunger, pal status effects, raids. Sure you could alt-tab and gain some advantage from that but if you just leave the game off overnight I don't think you'll benefit g

Personally I don't really see the point of ownership. If I can listen to the music I'm good, I don't need to "own" a copy. I'm probably an outlier, I don't really see the point of collecting things in gene

I'm not saying universities are perfect. I'm just saying a university education is useful, or at least that it was to me and I think it will be to anyone who puts effort into it. I have actually remarked to colleagues about this e

University provides much more than paper. What many don't seem to understand is that it is the student's responsibility to learn. The best lecturer in the world can't teach you anything if you don't pay attention, or if

Nynorsk was an attempt at creating a written language closer to the spoken language. The problem is that in Norway out dialects are widely different. For example, the phrase "I am" is written as "Jeg er" in bokmål, "

I'm sure whatever you were using to write GUIs was still just rendering nested rectangles and styling them.

To me, the core of this entire issue is complexity and where it belongs. My view is that you should perform as much processing as possible in the backend. This allows you to send as little data as possible over the network and allows your a

Alright. You say low code systems are programming languages, I said they're GUIs on top of software libraries. So in essence we both just said low code systems are graphical programming languages, in different words. The problem with t

No, a programming language is a useful tool. There is absolutely nothing stopping you from writing machine code directly, go right ahead if you think that's easier for you.

I'm similar and I get what you mean, but I'm not sure it's a positive. Some times I waste a lot of time trying to find the perfect solution, can't find it, give up and just do the best I know how to do. Almost always, wh

That's what people don't seem to get. "Low code" is literally just a software library with a gui on top. They could just provide the software library as a standalone but then there's too much competition and the com

Sure, but if your current solution is 20 lines of code it's trivial to refactor it later if you need it. Of course the average dev won't do that, they'll just add a hacky workaround as they always do and end up with a buggy h

For me it depends. I'm still fairly new and trying to find good solutions to things, so some times I might get hardly anything done because I'm just thinking about what to do or trying various stuff to see how an idea ends up. But

Sure, you don't strictly need it to write working code. But you will very quickly run into situations where you're writing unnecessarily slow code because you don't know what you're doing. To me, it's essential.
