When did Udacity fell off the MOOC discourse? That's my first experience with MOOCs; have fond memories learning robotics with Sebastian Thrun there. I used to prefer its short lesson and frequent quiz too.

American is in the title, but really, it's saying every English-speaker is at least bilingual. If you're already n-lingual with English as one of them, you can bump it to n+1 :)

Who came up with this term? There's no reverse in that definition. I'd expect a reverse acquihire to be something like windsurf getting Google people and absorbing google. Maybe something like Boeing and McDonnell Douglas. It&#x27

It's funny. Le Chat's gaslighting me in French. Claims Mistral develops ChatGPT when answering in French, but OpenAI when in English. For your amusement too: https://imgur.com/EgmQ0Ph

Tangential, but the visuals reminded me of the book Vehicles by Braitenberg ( https://app.thestorygraph.com/books/5b1c7c36-4582-4962-a89d-... ). Although, it's less about evolution and more about complex behaviours

It's the cycle of life. Intel was founded by people leaving Fairchild, and that in turn was founded by the Traitorous Eight from Shockley. The ecosystem is healing.

I use a more simplistic solution: I bind a keyboard shortcut to uBO's element zapper so I can just zap sticky headers as I find them. I have to zap for every repeat visit, but the same shortcut works for zapping sticky sidebar videos o

I'm about 2/3 into the book, the idea is convincing, but did he put any example checklist in the book? He referred to many extant checklists, but there is no "Figure 1: a bad checklist" and "Figure 2: a good check

If my reading is correct, the violations were only for a period in 2009-2010. Whatever change of behaviour this ruling might have induced, it had happened a long time ago.
