Async await is a glorious fucking event loop which obscures the primitive, crude simplicity to something unrecognizable which most developers think does something it absolutely doesn't. it could be sth along the lines of: on(x=foo()){

bigstrat2003 can’t even figure out basic things. They can’t program well despite putting years of life into that effort. I'm not worried they will suddenly develop intelligence out of nowhere. See, I, too, can write meaningless prose.

AI expert != Expert on impact of introduction of unprecedented non-biological intelligence in a biological ecosystem. I think you meant the 2nd and yes, we are all about to get a dose of “expertise” in the field.

“Experts” on _what_ exactly? What fucking field of study makes you an “expert” in a never seen before scenario?

Pretty soon there will be no need for recording and editing . IIRC House MD was one of the first shows to use digital (5D mkII). Soon there will be AI generated shows. Perhaps entirely personalized. Youtube, generate me a TNG episode.

Open source let Redhat get away with basically close sourcing RHEL. Big mistake.

this is silly. first: "Trump alleges 'stunning' Chinese election interference, deep state coverup" FALSE is of course incorrect, because Trump did in fact say that. So that statement is correct. “China interfered with e

The reason is more than apparent. So long freedom, it’s been nice living in STASI free society for a while. Too bad power attracts the people who will make sure they keep it in their hands.

Well, the amendment is definitely ambiguous hence all these discussions. And everyone interprets it to their liking. Do I think the government needs internal counterforce? Absolutely and there are plenty of countries today to see why. Do I

No it’s not. The right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed, _because_ a well regulated Militia is necessary to the security of a free State.

A single man is no threat to the state, so your example is wrong. A militia could be. To be able to form militia to resist the government, individuals have absolute right to be armed. The mechanics is really pretty simple. And yes, I believ

You are simply reading the sentence wrong. Well regulated militia is not condition.

A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed. It’s about the right. The right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed, _

Which part of “shall not be infringed” is hard to parse, exactly? The question is not if you agree with it or not, the question is, if the constitution matters at all. If your position is that constitution should be overridden by contempora

That really depends on disability. A single screen with no distractions really helps me focus. That said, dark terminal bg (which i like) kinda sucks for astigmatism (but that’s not unique to TUIs).

Today it is. A few years down the road it might not be. In late 90s we would have laughed if somebody proposed this was going to be a thing, let alone that linux community will just go with it. Heck, I would not have believed systemd was go

When DoorDash or whatever courier comes to a restaurant, they pick up “order number”. That order number is in essence just private IP. Courier translates it to address=public ip. It follows that the restaurant writes the address on every de
