Dart shipped in 2011, four years before Flutter started. On the technical side, Flutter needed AOT compilation to native ARM for release builds and a JIT for development (that's what makes stateful hot reload possible). Dart does both

I dunno, the people I've talked to about it (small sample) have said they don't mind because then they get more relevant ads. It's very hard to reason with that sort of thing!

The EU already has exactly that! The Charter of Fundamental Rights is binding constitutional law, and the Council's own lawyers said the CC2.0 would probably be annulled by the CJEU if passed. The problem isn't the absence of this

Anecdotally, I've had Claude (Sonnet and Opus latest) consistently misread numbers from screenshots of my macro tracking app. Makes me skeptical of claims about its usefulness for anything requiring accurate image interpretation, let a

Anecdata: I see this in the park next to my house. Two crows will repeatedly chase and tail-pull an Egyptian goose that has no food and nothing they could want. Hard to read it as anything other than play, which lines up with documented cor

Arent't the models trained on open source code though? In which case OpenAI et al should be following the licenses of the code on which they are trained.

Capitalism is not the redistribution of resources. It is an economic system in which the means of production are owned by private owners, as opposed to collectively. In theory, full communism prevents corruption by removing its structural c

OK not constantly using multiple agents, but very frequently.

Nice. Just a thought: It would be cool if you could control your TV with (robust) hand gestures like this!

No, in fact I'm growing increasingly suspicious of messages I see like this all over the socials. I am using Claude constantly, multiple agents, around 8-10hrs a day, 5 or 6 days a week, and I'm never anywhere need my limit.

I can't tell if this is satire. Some people really believe stuff like this.

Maybe the joke was on Babbage. Possible that they were asking about trust and over-reliance, which turned out to be the real problem.

Yes that's what vegetarian means, 99% of the time. Where did I say "full complicity"? But yes, animals who are farms for milk and eggs are treated just as badly, sometimes worse, than animals that are farmed for meat.

>Beyond Meat CEO Says ‘It’s Just Not The Moment For Plant-Based Meat’ After Rebrand It absolutely is the time for plant-based meat. It has never been more crucial. It's just that their business model was easily replicable.

Health conscious ethical vegan here. I eat these fairly often. The protein content is fine. I get micronutrients from other sources. I track all my calories and macros, every single day. My diet is perfectly balanced, thanks very much. Some

Impressive engineering, genuinely. But I'd push back on the framing that scaling aquaculture is straightforwardly good. Fish sentience is increasingly well-supported in the neuroscience literature. We already kill somewhere around 1-2

Reading is much faster than writing, that's a given. You can generate the rules in less than an hour, then never have to write a line of code again. But maybe you have trouble writing prompts. Spend some time learning how to do that an

AI will write whatever kind of code you want it to write. If you know how to write clean code and you can describe that in a prompt, it will give you clean code that is indistinguishable from that of a talented dev.
