Very cool video and respect to the guitar player for gracefully handling a once in a lifetime opportunity.

Maybe a virtual / Zoom agent could allow the elderly investor to stay in the game. When you get too old to go golfing you can still stay in the game.

The hallucinations would be a feature in this case.

And when it's the utility's job, who's footing the bill?

I assume he means they haven't caught the orbiter.

Yeah, that would be nice. I'm worried this will continue to escalate.

I can't speak for Iran, but it may be a warning against attempting to land troops on Kharg Island. They're showing that they've been "nice" so far, but they have escalation paths America may not have considered. I

To me this is like the Doolittle Raid on Tokyo during WWII. The tactical result isn't important, the range of the strike is, and that it happened at all. Japan thought it was immune from air attack on the home islands in 1942, and th

Yeah, I decided to become a "professional" musician a few months ago after quitting my last tech job. I'm not amazing, but I've got some places to play, and I'm starting to give lessons, etc. It's not an easy

Pump and dump scheme?

by mmmm2 10mo ago
Agreed. Anyone with a modicum of common sense knew this was the plan all along. It's not like it was hard to find people saying this before the election.

It's not that great even if you have money. Unless you're talking about the type of money needed to pay for all of your treatments out of pocket, and give you access to special private care most people don't even know exists

LLMs seem better suited to help with the Tower of Babel we've created for ourselves: aws commands, Terraform modules, Java libraries, Javascript/React, obscure shell commands, etc.

`trash` is good to know, thanks! I'd been doing: "tell app \"Finder\" to move {%s} to trash" where %s is a comma separated list of "the POSIX file <path-to-file>".

True, though money can buy influence and the opportunity to obtain power.

The Intelligent Investor by Graham talks about investors putting so much money into airlines and air freight that it became impossible to make a return. I don't know if you would call that a bubble, maybe just over exuberance.

Yeah, it's certainly difficult to balance the game if players have complete flexibility. From my limited DMing experience, much of the challenges is handling when players do something you haven't anticipated. For most encounters

Yeah, it's just a scam so companies don't have to keep vacation on their books. It just means if you give your boss enough notice, maybe you'll get some time off, as long as your project is progressing well.

Emacs has a button for that :-).

I think we as developers underestimate the value of a 100 line Python script. Everything could be hard coded and inflexible, but it's still easy to refactor because you can keep the whole thing in your head. "Bad" design can

Seems to capture the scale and ridiculousness as well.

There is a different version of Starship for landing on the moon. Supposedly, for Mars, the single stage part of the rocket has enough acceleration to get off of Mars on its own. This does assume the rocket can refuel on Mars.

Von Neumann is the guy "regular" geniuses cite as otherworldly. - Foundations of computer architecture. - Game theory - Statistics - Quantum Mechanics I'm short selling him here. He also worked out the calculations for the e

I started off with Clojure and then moved to Common Lisp. They're both good languages. My Clojure is rusty, so I'll just list some positive things I found about using Common Lisp. This is from my experience creating a small webs

Yeah, it does server-side rendering. I use spinneret for a flashcard / boggle website I made. It's nice and compact compared to writing the HTML by hand or using something like Jinga2. You get the full power of a programming lan

Sure, not everyone wants to go remote, but many people do. Those of us who like remote work want to preserve it as an option. There's already resistance from companies with leases and cities with "empty" downtowns. I'm

I mean, as long as he's sorry... I get that they're in a bind, but I don't know why any potential employee would trust them in the future. I had considered applying there in the past, but now... All of their applicants are n

User Interface Design for Programmers (by Joel Spolsky) is pretty good. I think it's available for free at this point: https://www.joelonsoftware.com/2001/10/24/user-interface-des... It covers some fou

It depends on the FAANG, though most of them have some amount of C++ code. Google has a ton; they'll appreciate people who know the language well. I think people may be concerned because these days it's more niche, though it&#x27
