I'm sure this is a basic question I should already understand, but, what is actually in it for the bot farm? They spend your money (annoying), but, does Google actually pay them somehow? I don't get what they are "farming&quo

I've been helping to run a meetup in Christchurch, New Zealand: https://christchurch.ruby.nz/ for about 10 years (maybe longer, I've lost track!). I _completed_ agree with the article that the best thing you can d

Yeah, this collection is _awesome_. I'm currently enjoying the Towers (just do it on 5x5 simple, and find it quite relaxing!).

I haven't looked into it thoroughly yet, but, at some point it'll be worth looking at getting a static IP address and using Cloudflare tunnels to serve toyish projects from your home netwerk. Just need to work out how to firewall

Can you point to an article on how to do this? This sounds _amazing_

Yip interesting, you're the second person in a week who has suggested the magnesium. I frankly never trust these suggestions of supplements (having tried some before), but, https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PM

I've tried a CPAP machine for 6 weeks and felt no different and gave up. I think I was a 6 on the scale. I wish it had worked though! Currently I've just given up and embracing feeling relatively tired all the time. I've trie

This article really captures what I'm feeling about the entire AI jobs landscape. What the heck happens when we don't have juniors for years? There's gonna be trouble ahead (unless you truly believe AI will be able to complet

What a bad situation, and I genuinely feel for them. I do think they blamed a lot of other people and I think a section on what lessons they have learned themselves might be a good idea/look. At minimum you want to have off site backup

I'm about to start a new role. What have you found most effective in using it to learn a new code base? Just asking questions about "what is this class doing" ? drawing architecture diagrams?

Kamal is basically self hosting though right? So you have to take care of keeping the underlying os patched etc. With heroku you only needed to think about git push.. ?

May well have bugs as I just finished it (and really it should be baked into the UI so you can easily reverse)... however... here is the reverse play: https://minichessgames.com/#/play/kings-vs-knight Hope your da

But this is different? Wholesale copying of copyrighted works and packaging it up and allowing it to be generated. It's not remotely reasonable

Yup, I'm going to build out the reverse play when I find time in the next few weeks hopefully! I'll try to remember to comment here :) Quite probably you did just run up against a bug in it! I'd have to see the position thoug

I've been working on https://www.minichessgames.com which I built with my 6 year old (she was the product owner ;). It's a site with a bunch of small puzzles (e.g. imagine a chess board with rocks thrown onto it, then

It's just a basic minmax. The main mistake it makes is that if it can find an assured path to getting you it doesn't care how many moves in the future it is (even if it could win this turn). That said, the audience is 6 year olds

Thanks :). Did you manage to beat it (first time?) ;)

well, lets take that as true (no more humans doing accounting). Doesn't that mean that there'll be a knowledge gap there? What happens when new rules come along (laws change all the time which will affect accounting practices).

Interesting thought. I feel currently AI is most useful to those who have a decent understanding of the subject material and can critique any output. To wholesale trust the output of AI and remove any human in the loop, well, it needs to be

Nope. Intentionally so :)

Well done :) the "ai" for this game is really basic, it just tries to find any free move and take it. The other games do a basic minmax to look ahead a bit. Glad you enjoyed it :)

On brand though surely ;) (What were you hoping for?, the other games have a more traditional winning melody ;)
