No. There is not. Canada also has campaign spending rules because most civilized nations recognize that equal speaking time is required for a fair election. Otherwise you can’t consider the people to be well informed. There is no “independ

Hard disagree, I used Android for years but after they removed feature after feature that I found useful, and replaced them with features that shovelled ads at me, I finally gave up and switch to iOS. I think the last straw was when I was f

I thinks it's very reasonable. They provide an important security service, also the windows equivalent is many hundreds of dollars per year, per application, vs $99 per year which would cover any number of applications.

It has nothing to do with someone lying to me, rather that the average person is very uneducated on any given topic and these days largely consumes propaganda from people who DO have a reason to lie to me. Thus, random people are not to be

You are likely not a professional writer, unless that happens to be your job, but then you are not “like the rest of us”. Also, journalists are held to the standards of their organization, unlike “the rest of us” who have no standard. I alw

And anecdotes are useless. If you want to show me improved studies justifying your claim great, but no I don't value random anecdotes. There are countless conflicting anecdotes (including my own).

I think in this regard it works just fine. If the laws move to say that "learning from data" while not reproducing it is "stealing", then yes, you reading others code and learning from it is also stealing. If I can'

The fact that you think "change detection" tests offer zero value speaks volumes. Those may well be the most important use of unit tests. Getting the function correct in the first place isn't that hard for a senior developer,

Except actual studies objectively show efficiency gains, more with junior devs, which make sense. So no, it's not a "deception" but it is often overstated in popular media.

Why aren't you writing unit tests just because AI wrote the function? Unit tests should be written regardless of the skill of the developer. Ironically, unit tests are also one area where AI really does help move faster. High level des

It sounds like you are the one with a deathwish, because objectively by the numbers Autopilot on the highway has greatly reduced death. So you are literally advocating for more death. You have two imperfect systems for highway driving: Auto

I’m for this as long as the company also takes on liability for human errors they could prevent. I’d want to see cars enforcing speed limits and similar things. Humans are too dangerous to drive.
