That's interesting, what makes you think that? Not long ago, I was working on my degree in Computer Science (Software Engineering), and we were heavily drilled on this principle. Even then, I found it amusing how all the professors wer

Apologies, the nodejs comment above therefore is wrong. I don't seem to be able to edit it anymore.

Yes! > With the llms these days, any linux issue is fixable within minutes. I think this point is really it. What in the past needed a 40min google search to fix something, llms now fix it in seconds.

I completed a CS degree just a year ago, and they absolutely wrecked us with UML. I’m still recovering mentally.

I can't say I relate at all (5 years of experience). They'll have to pry my 1000-line .zshrc from my cold, dead hands. For example, zsh-autosuggestions improves my quality of life so ridiculously much it's not even funny.

A better analogy: imagine if someone built a public water fountain, then chess.com set up next to it selling the exact same water for $100/year while limiting the public fountain to 1 cup per day through lobbying. Then they sponsored a

Chess.com is fundamentally a scam operation masquerading as a premium service. They've built an empire by paywalking features that should be free - and ARE free elsewhere. Lichess proves every single day that unlimited puzzles, deep an

Yeah, it’s textbook USdefaultism. "Look how global we are… as long as you have a U.S. address, the correct passport, a bank account in a supported country, a smartphone with the correct OS."

I get that it works, and it's actually pretty cool that you can do this. But honestly, it feels like it would good, readable code into a tangled mess pretty fast.

> I host this blog on a single core 128MB VPS No wonder the site is being hugged to death. 128MB is not a lot. Maybe it's worth to upgrade if you post to hacker news. Just a thought.

Fascinating! I want to get into this type of stuff. But I have no idea where to start, I just have just a CS degree and 3 years experience as a developer.

For tactics I really like chesstempo.com. It has free, unlimited puzzles. It is to my mind superior for tactics training. It also has a comments feature which I really like.

Yeah exactly forcing it out of a "local minimum" is a neat way to describe it. In the middle of the conversation I drop this sometimes. Works wonders. You just have to tell it it's stuck in a loop and it will suddenly pretend

"amygdala-bait" is such a good, concise way of expressing the phaenomenon. I too try to stay away from infinite scrolling. I installed an extension to block youtube shorts, for example, as they offer no value to me.

This is what happens when an engineer tries to apply mathematical models to entirely different fields where they have no applicability. Reducing human personality to machine learning concepts like 'gradient updates' misses the fun
