It's crazy how slack big tech is. For companies who have such a grueling application process you'd think they'd have more to show for it. disappointing.

I think when companies become a 'necessity' like this, they have to be regulated or broken up. I'm not a big fan of Apple taking a commission if you port an app to their phone and I loathe the idea of having to use iCloud if

I've been using Python since 2.x and I have to admit which each new release I toy with leaving this language behind. Type hints are the latest warts in what should have been a beautiful language. I tend to agree with Charles Lesleifer

Wipe out America and another imperialists take it's place. That's not the answer. Hookey as it sounds living in harmony with nature, recycling, reusing and resource management are what's best.

They're shrinking globally. https://www.sciencealert.com/birth-rates-are-plummeting-in-m... That said, the world will probably be black by 2200. Makes sense.

What's interesting is this could make areas like AI - that are already dirty and environmentally harmful - even worse. If we don't have a clean source of energy to power the data centers. Concerning. I think I read or heard somewh

I think the "intent" to evolution is reproduction. Thus, it makes sense to look at these traits as chosen or adaptive to further this cause. Everything is based on reproducing a species, it's the only reason we know now of ev

I think the government for the most part, needs to get out of social media and treat them like TV of old. The idea is that TV is just a medium. You can post any commercial or information you want on there and it should be up to the viewer t

I'll allow it. Then we can rewrite it in C but better this time. I really don't see too much of the problem with Coding in C. You just have to be little more mindful. With great power....

When you save something for example to a folder. Is the save icon coloured or not? This is isn't rocket science. It should show it's current state.

" Engineers specializing in machine learning continue to command a salary premium in the job market over standard software engineers" I still haven't really seen this. Data Scientist still seem to make about the same as an ex

I hear what you're saying, and actually agree that - unfortunately - is the current state of LLMs today. But I think OP still has a point, and I'd argue as well that that is the aim of GAI, to be able to take a simple question, un

Python is amazing and shines for Web development. I'd recommend taking a look at https://www.tornadoweb.org/en/stable/index.html . I use this in production on my pet project at https://www.meecal.co

It's important to learn to pivot as well. I've had a website that only really started getting any traction once I built a facebook group around it. Being unable to monetize on facebook left a bad taste in my mouth, with a little b

Dude this is really cool. Do you have a repo or other site where you talk about this?

You'd be surprised to find most studios pick X over Y because it's either familiar to their devs or cheaper. Better doesn't really play into it and a thorough evaluation beforehand isn't usually done.
