The "point" of not anthropomorphizing is to refrain from judgement until a more solid abstraction appears. The problem with explaining LLMs in terms of human behaviour is that, while we don't clearly understand what the LLM i

I don't think this is right. The WCAG allows for "programmatically determined link context" which includes text surrounding the actual link. "click here" is bad but "Amaya website" or "Amaya" are

If how you manage your time is your business, why are you replying to an article about changing the length of the work week? You are telling us that nobody mandates your work week. Most employees are not in that situation. > I can finish

> It is none of my employer’s business how I spend that time as long as deadlines are being met This contradicts what you already said ("there are always more TODOs"). Which one should I reply to? If your employment has fixed d

Not exactly true. The typical work week was longer in the 1800s than in the 1900s. The limiting of the work week to 40/5 was an explicit political movement. Of course it was not reduced as a direct consequence of increased productivity

Do you come in on Saturdays, since your TODO list is still not empty?

Because the enterprise is not owned or controlled by you, and you don't get to set the rules. If you can negotiate better conditions, and nobody else on the market can undercut you, then you can have them. This isn't even an abstr

XSLT is probably the #1 reason people get turned off from XML and swear it off as a mistaken technology. I actually quite like XML, so I have been trying lately to tease out exactly what it is that makes XSLT a mistake. XML is a semi-struct

Still rocking a 3 here (albeit only 5 years old). Going quite strong after a couple of replacements and upgrades.

But you compared it to vim in the project description. If you don't think it's better than vim in any respect, why did you write it? I am only looking for reasons I should try to use it. You seem to imply there are none?

Looks lovely. Where does it deviate from vim? Evidently it is modal. What features make it more effective than vim is?

What does that actually mean? The tweet is not very clear. Is it the bold in the header? What's special about it?

I have not been able to configure an editor that makes it less painful. I think it's not just the verbosity (although that is painful) - the prefix notation makes some things inherently hard to read. MathML is almost impossible.

I have been thinking about this seriously myself. Not with a specific existing schema like DocBook, but with a custom schema (defined by me) that I then compile to standard schemas, like DocBook or HTML. This seems extensible to the degree

That is helpful to me! How did it work? I imagine a lot of RC interactions are kind of spontaneous, and I never understood how that would translate over the internet.

I'm not going to the US - that is the entire point of my comment.

Is asking about Recurse Center on-topic? I wanted to apply, but I genuinely don't consider it safe to travel to the US. As far as I can tell there is no comparable bootcamp-style retreat in EU :(

It's the LGPL, not the GPL. Huge difference.

Do people actually behave this way with you? If someone presents a plan confidently without explaining why, I tend to trust them less (even people like doctors, who just happen to start with a very high reputation). In my experience people

I can't imagine removing this element of ambiguity because programs are not perfect. They are a representation of some mental process, and they frequently contain mistakes. They are also, as you admit, unable to capture states of the r

I don't think this matters. It's equally true of natural language contracts, which are litigated constantly.

Even allowing for such a contrived example, would it be so bad if the money was taken from John Smith? The contract writer was an idiot, sure, but John Smith is an idiot too for just taking the money and expecting to be able to keep it. To

I think you're letting the perfect be the enemy of the good. It seems like an obvious advantage to have systems that decide the outcome automatically and correctly 99% of the time, despite requiring occasional corrections from outside.
