Not sure if that example helps. You can make any programming language hard to read without some basic formatting. The way I would write the sexpr would be: (impl (impl p (impl q r)) (impl (impl p q)

Yes, software is full of ambiguities but there are methods we use to handle them. OP emailed an outline wanting feedback, as any team player would do to iron out ambiguities, and received a meaningless reply. I think it's safe to say c

I remember reading someone's shower thoughts that if the internet was completely safe there would be no need for Cloudflare, so it's in Cloudflare's best interest to keep the internet unsafe. It's an interesting thought

I could imagine more sophisticated crawlers might be able to detect false information and then avoid those pages, but maybe that's more far fetched than how it comes across in my mind.

I agree that it's good they looked passed typical corporate reasons. I admit it's still strange to see. At the end of the day, companies like Microsoft are in the business of making money and that's one of the reasons they ma

Normally I don't think anyone would be losing their mind, but this is a Microsoft team creating a widely popular Microsoft product and they use a Google product (Go) instead of using another Microsoft product (C#) that is arguably comp

I would argue that, yes, it is okay to expect your average person not to understand the law. Of course, it would be great if everyone understood everything (laws, in this case) but that's not feasible. The FDIC being in place means the

Many products have been successful not because they bring new features to the market but because they make existing features trivial to use. UX is everything.

Sounds like his talking backfired. "We need to regulate AI! No, not that much!" There's no way OpenAI will quit EU and leave it for competitors to take, easy bluff to call. The whole thing makes it seem like the desire for AI

I had similar thoughts when I was messing with Mac OS 7 and 8 a few months ago. I was astounded at how featureful most software was. Microsoft Word version 5 had every feature I possibly needed and was extremely fast, way faster than modern

I’ve seen that and also seen that if you ask it for the nearest Mcdonald’s and then ask how it got that it will say it used your IP address. I haven’t seen anyone test it by spoofing their IP, yet.

I second this. I’ve never used it, talk to friends, and yet it’s still sitting there at the top.

Just as another data point, Substance tools can get even cheaper if you don’t care to have the whole collection. You can get the Substance 3D Texture pack which includes Painter, Designer, and Sampler for $19.99/mo or you can buy a per

I would say yes and no. Yes, obviously the renderer is there but at the same time it's only doing what it was told to do. Taking Unity and Unreal as examples, you can make something look plastic, cartoony, realistic, a mixture, or real

Putting the fact there’s cheaper options aside, who was this made for? They made an affordable computer supposedly for people without computers but it doesn’t have a screen, as if those people have ready access to a monitor or TV, and a 4K

I’m curious why you say that. I put clip ins on my bike and it made a world of a difference being able to pull and push while pedaling. Are there better options?

I don’t live in an area with a lot of light pollution but have black out curtains for full moons and that hour or two after sunrise before I’m awake and they have made a noticeable difference.

I agree. Maybe there's some truth in the whole "brain plasticity" talking point but how long does it take a child to become fully comfortable with speaking and writing a language? 8 years? Longer? Compared to an adult who can

I don't doubt the number, but it does make me genuinely curious. How does this compare to other software? How much energy does running, for example, Facebook require? How much extra energy is required if you use a language like Ruby, P
