I agree that crosswords often include cultural references that lean towards certain demographics / assuming particular education, and that can feel exclusionary if you don’t share that background - and there's even an argument to

I believe that you two are not disagreeing in logic, just misunderstanding each others intended meanings. When you said "a coin can never be worth less than the metal it contains", I think you meant "no matter what number is

That's never been true in the UK? You don't have to be 16 to get a debit card, and having one isn't proof of any age. (For example, Barclays gave me my first debit card when I was 13, many years ago.)

I wasn't insinuating any sort of judgement, from myself or from the vague general public that I referred to; just commenting on which parts are particularly visible & thought about. Edit: I wasn't going to say anything, but th

Minor nitpick, but you mean "tts" not "stt" both times. Is supertonic the best sounding model, or is there a different one you'd recommend that doesn't perform as well but sounds even better?

But you don't have to be restricted to one model either? Codex being open source means you can choose to use Claude models, or Gemini, or... It's fair enough to decide you want to just stick with a single provider for both the too

Not very clear what you mean... well you haven't actually given them an answer to their question. Are you suggesting that docker provides an (unspecified) edge to developers who are better than average? Or to those who are mediocre? Or

Other than Americans wanting to feel superior (no offence intended, I'm sure most countries want to feel that when possible!) is there actually any public evidence that's the case? Even when it comes to superiority of physical mil

The opposite of technically correct - there's some logic to their thinking of it as being about the 90s, but technically it very much did not happen "in the 90s".

Maybe I'm being dense, but could someone kindly explain to me the "Web App" example on that Sprites page? " 30 hours of wake time per month (~5 concurrent users avg), averaging 10% of 2 CPUs and 1 GB RAM " Does that

Are LLMs too expensive, or not reliable enough at not making mistakes, or just something you haven't considered? It's not something I generally need to do, so I haven't been keeping up with how good LLMs are at this sort of c

It's not often anybody writes a sentence that combines cynicism/negativity about AI with anthropomorphising AI agents!

Keep in mind that "making money" doesn't have to be from people paying to use uv. It could be that they calculate the existence of uv saves their team more time (and therefore expense) in their other work than it used to crea

Agree with you but would add that even on the professional managerial side it is indeed a luxury - yes for many people it would be possible, but there's also many people (in startups, or small businesses, or not small but struggling bu

Not quite the same as Vtuber avatars, but what you said about their software makes me think (hope) you might be able to answer a question I was wondering about the other day: is any software/models good enough yet to be able to replace

Agree with you over OP - as well as Qwen there's others like Mistral, Meta's Llama, and from China there's the likes of Baidu ERNIE, ByteDance Doubao, and Zhipu GLM. Probably others too. Even if all of these were considered w
