   OpenSCAD is not a programming language with flow of execution, but static statement of properties of the desired object. Only language better for this might be Prolog. Once you totally comprehend this, all the "functional" shit of

   Eventually Starlink is the only solution. Hiding SL antennas will become big business. Birdfeeders and roof tiles.

   Too messy discussion for any rational summary. Me no expert on any of this. Anyways arguing with Grok is entertaining, while it is politically correct and woke, it does not start screaming when proven wrong.

   Grok finally talked itself into a corner and admitted that there is no education/nutrition/etc induced IQ increase: In essence, while the context of education and IQ today is vastly different from the agricultural and genetic scie

   ChatGPT is the winner this time, but only after several inquiries. Comes with languages lessons, as expected: SS Neekeri was a Finnish steamship built in 1871. The ship's name reflects the language of its time, but today it is understa

   Woke censoring seems to be cumulatively dangerous. I tried to ask about "SS Neekeri", which was a steam ship moving Finnish tar to England and also humourous radioplay. Instead I got sermon about German SchutzStaffel and warning t

   There seems to be less artificial restrictions. You can ask for example "who is Bryan Lunduke". This important especially in non-english world. As forbidden words have different significance in other cultures.

    Grok made better job of explaining different solutions in micropython environment. Summary: * Task Parallelism and Multi-threading are good for computational tasks spread across the ESP32's dual cores. * Asynchronous Programming shines

    Weirdly primitive boats those american yahoos make. Something was lost when Bering Sound was crossed. This is X0000 year old skill, muchmuch older than Great Pyramids, resulting a boat you can carry with one hand. https://youtu.b

    I bought NVDA because it was clearly bitcoin derivative on steroids. But that was 5 years ago. AI-boom diverted it 3000%. Nothing to do with bitcoin anymore.

    Problem with extended programming language called English is that it has no "modes", and you have to use weird words and exotic intonation to have desired effect. Particularly OJSimpson's lawyer comes to mind, comical even th

    Jolly Heretic et al say that reaction time is better measure of GI than any of those tedious tests. You can feel the pain in Counter-Strike when some kid jumps behind a blind corner and always hits you right between the eyes.

    One must remember that it's scope is worldwide. It does not make funny pictures of some local politicians while others it would. Names mean nothing in some other country. For example it happily makes "Mannerheim on the moon"
