Let me be blunt: this looks like a tantrum. Bugs exist, and they're sometimes fixed more slowly than we'd like, but given the size of the GitHub ecosystem this is probably just one of many outstanding bugs. Blaming AI is baseless

The lack of native Microsoft Outlook support was one of the reasons I've abandoned Thunderbird. However, it is still not enough for me to come back. Sadly, corporate life is often organised around email and calendaring. All these endle

In the academic programming languages research community, the term "transpiler" is barely used. For example, Google Scholar search for "transpiler" yields just 3200 results, compared to ~1.4M for "compiler".

It is similarly unsulting to read an ungrammatical blog post full of misspelings. So I do not subscribe to the part of your argument "No, don't use it to fix your grammar". Using AI to fix your grammar, if done right, is the

This is the right direction - the only way to go about fake images and video is digital signatures. Phone camera should be able to do this as well. Then we can have signatures of software used for processing them (on top) cerityfing what ch

Locked app store was my primary reason staying away from iPhone. Now, this is gone. It also open door for censorship, like disabling ICE-tracking or other politically inconvenient apps. This is a terrible decision for Android and for our fr

Not true. It quantifies publications in top conferences. These are highly competitive, and you cannot just publish any junk there. If the site were to measure ANY publications, then it would be indeed skewed, as you suggested.
