That's even worse than saying: fentanyl helps me overcome pain, so it should be felt available to everyone. You're either a hardcore contrarian or a hardcore libertarian. Or living under a rock?

A smart phone is a human right, according to you? Of course you can ban them. The addicts will have to wean off, but after that, there's no disadvantage.

Speed limits work nonetheless. A few hefty fines and most of it will stop.

If air is so valuable to you, why don't you pay premium for it? Not that it's comparable to books, but it has the same presupposition as your question.

Live exam, perfectly fine. You can use an LLM as support while you study, no problem, as a glorified search engine. On steroids. From the future. Then you prove you understood it. Writing an essay, or a thesis, with LLM assist, is difficult

Nero probably even enjoyed seeing Rome burn. I think other people might have been angry. Don't be Nero.

Is that your way of saying: I don't care? Because it sounds are if you're relativizing the problems to the level where you don't have to. You don't specify what you think "no longer matters." And so there'

30k papers? What field is that? How do you even select your area of competence from such a haystack? I went to smaller conferences, I suppose, but back then I also had to review papers outside my direct expertise, although nothing too remot

GET, COMMENT, PUT, UPDATE, DELETE. Yeah, makes sense. Now we only need an alternative for PUT to backcronym CRUD. RIPOSTE?

One nitpick: changing registration and playing on different manuals was not common in Bach's time; some scholars have gone as far as saying it was not done, even some pieces contain explicit instructions. But it's more of a Romanc

Sounds nice, but it adds to the load. Small businesses consider their direct customers much more important, and have little time for this kind of thing. Managing a domain is more work than godaddy makes you believe...

The article speaks about DMARC monitoring, but not about "writing" it. So many orgs are too small to have someone paying attention of these things. Where I work, the CTO used to manage the DNS, but with very little understanding o

A palatable version: it's mostly used for laundering/crime, so away with it. Cynical: do we put a man or a woman on it?

These people can't be serious. They're just trolling. César Franck was Dutch, BTW.

Yeah, that's precisely one of the reasons why there shouldn't be faces on bank notes. Shame on the nationalists that managed to make dreck out of it.

The problem there is that parent's won't know how to do it, or won't care. Many can hardly operate the most user-friendly phone, let alone manage accounts. The online safety acts and its EU counterparts are somewhat risky, bu

I see where you're coming from, but my experience says (TLDR): lack of dogfooding. In my current job, I'm building a system which has replaced the "SaaS" we used before. Not only was it fairly expensive, and sluggish, it

I don't think anyone will want to become cranky and deaf because Beethoven is on a bank note, but putting people on them is rather arbitrary. The set looks too much like a compromise for political safety.

Curiously, macOS is capable of putting a recently opened app out of focus. It happens consistently on my laptop when I haven't rebooted it for a while. It may be a bug, but it could be a feature, especially when it's conditioned b

I had an ipod, but the battery is dead, and it still had a rotating hd, so I thought: I liked Sony Discman, back in the day, this new player must be good. I was wrong. It sucks in many different ways. I've described some of the problem

That's only if the company's revenue is in excess of 100B. There aren't many companies like that. Certainly not enough for an AI platform to monetize. But don't you fall in the same trap as they try to lure you with: exp

It looks as if there is a significant difference in treating updates to complex objects, and probably scheduling as well.

The argument is not about "is polyphony shifting harmony" but about "does the brain encode two or more separate signals for polyphonic music." There's nothing that prevents the brain from encoding the whole thing in
