Nebula is such a streaming service. From what I understand, they are a subscription based company that has a profit share incentive for it's creators. Consequently, the creators skew toward educational-esque content.

The OP is right that in everyday talk state is not used in the general sense of "government"

I think a lot of people dislike that JavaScript is a general purpose programming language, rather than being a scripting engine for browsers.

Htmx posits that current browsers aren't "truly" hypermedia since only anchor tags and forms can initiate GET/POST requests. It is more of a tech demo showing what client with ANY tag being able to do requests would look

I've spoken to my friends on how right-on-red is one of the most anti-pedestrian rules of the street that exist. It was like pulling nails trying to convince them that the added convenience for motorists is not worth the increased dang

To whatever extent this article is true suggests that the way to convince people of certain positions is to hook them via peripheral route, but then keep them there via the central route. If the position is such that any central route reaso

I did this by mistake. Got hired as a QA, transferred to dev in six months. I wouldn't technically qualify for similar roles in my company were I to apply from the outside.

As we discuss this topic, can we keep a few things in mind? Density does not mean Manhattan levels of density. Manhattan has 28,000/km^2, Atlanta has 3,500/km^2. That's an order of magnitude difference. I mean this with all o

Wrong abstractions start off as right abstractions and slowly become wrong abstractions. What's the point in which a right abstractions becomes a wrong abstraction? Am I sure I can identify that point? Can someone else? Can someone els

I think the concern is that LLMs approximate that enough for decision makers to replace jobs. What critics see is a world where consumers and lower skilled workers get shafted in order for... what exactly? Humans aren't horses, because

I can think of two simple, practical answers to your query: The expressive power of single value functions is very powerful and the constraint is not necessarily restrictive but may even drive a stronger analysis. (Where does this function

I think the larger "issue" is that the phrase colloquially means the exact opposite of the original observation, that a bad apple MEANS the bunch is spoiled. It's worse because this changing of the meaning is perpetuated by t
