>Also, I’m really unimpressed by any “one shot” demo that’s out there in the wild. It means nothing for serious software engineering. If a person, or team of people, can build a demo quickly then it's good odds that they can build t

I think McEnroe was very unfair, and that men and women can be completely equal in technique and skill, even if not in physicality. But in my opinion, the women's game is what you watch if you want _even more_ tennis, or perhaps you re

One of my favorite delusions is that men are only better at sports than women because they are socialized to be so from a young age - that if women & girls were encouraged to be strong, fast and competitive; and if boys were scolded o

I suppose access journalism does have to get something out of the bargain, however small it's not zero. If that's the way you like to spend idle time, well it takes all kinds. I don't understand competitive scrabble either.

Yeah. I can't do the physics myself, so I take on faith (heh) that a sufficiently fast rotating blackhole has a ring shaped singularity that can extend outside its' event horizon. This was news in the 90s and it was a plot point

Amazon is almost completely unusable for search at this stage. I think perhaps 3/4 of the results are sponsored ads. Three in four. Trying to find a good deal on a product, even if you know precisely what you're looking for, is a

Well at the moment AI hasn't made anyone any money. It's redistributed investors money (typically wealthy although some pension plans have been caught up too) to tradespeople, to Nvidia, SK Hynix, Micron and other specialised vend

Actually, your example there would be absolutely true. Getting in someone's enthusiast but mid-range F1 simulator toy with all the game assists turned off would both: imply a near fatal accident happening over 50% of the time AND it wo

These buffoons started with a bad idea, raised a lot of money to do the impossible, unsurprisingly failed, and learned basically nothing. Or what they did learn was irrelevant to the reason why they failed. It's very depressing, but at

That's because White and Nerdy isn't a standalone song (if it was, it would be rubbish). It only has value as referential humour and self deprecating parody. So by being literal, it's using juxtaposition to emphasise the humo

Is it too eugenecist to hope those losers won't reconsider and stay childfree? I think it would be for the best if I didn't have to meet them at parental things.
