I'm pretty sure I saw some ChatGPT ads on Duolingo. Also, never forget that the regular dude do not use ad blockers. The tech community often doesn't realize how polluted the Internet/Mobile apps are.

One of the best games I played back in the day. However, I'm not "hyped" by this news. I'm way too afraid Ubisoft will favor nice gfx instead of a polished gameplay. I hope to be wrong, and I'll probably give it a c

This is an oversimplification of things, but I'll gladly explain. First, behind the term "newspaper", you have journalists. Not all of them are equal. Some are professionals, some have connections, and some are not good enoug

I obviously do not know the context, but as a manager, you have to be extremely cautious with the estimates provided to you by your team. First because human are notoriously bad at estimating the workload, and then because you never know wh

I'm not related to any of those company in any way. I do not work in this field, and to be quite honest, before your comment, I did not even know about ClearLink. I've highlighted something that makes no sense. Do you expect a car

There's something very fishy about ClearInk. I checked their website to see what their technology looks like. I wanted to see how their product compare to a eInk screen use in many devices (such as Kindle/Kobo/ReMarkable), as

I'm not sure to understand what 90% means in this context. We know that more than 80% of the infected people do not show any symptoms, and that around 0.5% (mostly elders) die from COVID. Do the 90% addresses the death rate of those 0.

Actually, there are many cases for wich I believe the comments are useful: - When you have some "complex" technical code. Using natural language is sometimes the most effective way to explain what is done by the related code. - W

Actually, this has been a strong focus of Mozilla foundation for years. The good news is that Mozilla has done a lot of refactoring / rewriting of its FIrefox codebase during the last year, and Firefox is now on par with Chrome regardi

Dune is great. Really great, especially the first part. While many books get a lot of praise/hype, Dune is one of the few that lives up to expectations.

It's fine as long you know the game you're playing. And this is the big issue : no one learn has told you, neither taught you how to play it. But some people were. Those are fine. For the others (me included) we had to figure out

Same for me (actually, most of the people I know are focused on running, but I guess it could be applied to nearly all sports). The closer I get to my forties, the more important it is to take care of my body. Basically, you just realize th

My comment will certainly not be helpful, but I think the best way to start is still to follow the most common advices you can find in a book or on the Internet. There are no shortcuts, especially when you're an adult that cannot affor

As every programmer, I think my skills have improved over the years so yes, the code I do write now is far better than the one I've written years ago. I'm not really ashamed, as I do not hear about the "bad" code I'
