Thanks for the good faith reply. I can see that this would require regular maintenance. It is interesting that we see our infrastructure as 'valid' or correct, but the work these engineers (beavers) put in as a nuisance. In an ide

The author asks "How can people take this seriously?" I would reply the same regarding this article. Nearly all of these refutations are unconvincing. The claim: "I believe we're reaching the upper limits about what gene

Google Inbox was amazing and I still mourn it regularly. The features they backported into gmail do not capture its essence. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inbox_by_Gmail

I appreciate the insight, and on closer reading the post clearly states that realistically only Zig and Rust were ever considered anyway. Since you're here, could you comment on the approach Rust took in their rewrite? Was it more of a

Interesting that OCaml was flexible and expressive enough to be used as a prototype testbed but not chosen as the implementation language, especially given the maturity of both. I would be surprised if Zigs incremental builds could be meani

One form of JavaScript interop. Instead of being able to write bindings directly to native code, you had to pass messages through "ports" instead. https://discourse.elm-lang.org/t/native-code-in-0-19/826

The article doesn't really discuss education outcomes at all, that is something you brought up. It sounds like we agree that there is an issue here. I'm suggesting that there are other reasons that explain the performance drop. My

Nationalized social media bans and restricted device usage while in a classroom are different things. Why would TikTok ever belong in the classroom? Of course if even educational use of laptops is restricted then personal mobile devices wou

There is growing acknowledgement that this is related to laptop usage in classroom. Countries are recognizing this and rolling back policies, citing PISA rankings. https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cly0vk77vdko h

I'm not a farmer, but you are welcome to ask a no-till farmer for their experience, or do some reading. Heck, you could read the article that we're commenting on where scientists have dedicated their career to understanding this s

What's the point of this? You are saying that you will not accept any new information that goes against your belief system. The evidence is there. Read something. Watch a video. The resources are readily available and abundant. Make a

What an odd response. We have centuries of evidence for minimal disturbance agriculture supporting civilizations. What evidently does NOT work is the quite new practice of industrial tilling and fertilizer, which is causing rapid breakdown

As someone who's been observing how the media treats cycling in this city closely since the dark days of Ducan Gay, this is absolutely what is happening. Thank you for posting this and for taking the time to document it in detail.

So just misquoting the author intentionally then? You should pick some of the substance of the article to take issue with instead of jumping to be a victim. They clearly read it if they wrote it.

You've read that paragraph backwards. They are talking about LLM enthusiasts dunking on people who aren't using.

People conjure various reasons for why things are different now, but routinely omit the changes in class talents and gearing. At launch there was zero spell damage or healing on raid gear as a stat. You might find some green of shadow wrath

Could you provide some more details about the Tasmania example? Seems humans reached Tas "at least" ~40,000 years ago from my simple searching, which isnt too far off from the generalised 50,000 mentioned in the article. Which spe
