Wait, the guy from Pomplamoose is the CEO of Patreon?!

We gotta start using ai;dr more.

Looks like it doesn’t know shit about me. Just that I am on an iPhone and my general location from the IP. Not surprising at all.

Maybe this is more thrilling for android users?

Most people have learned by now, that “lines of code“ is a terrible metric for evaluating productivity. Why are we doing the exact same thing with AI tokens now?

Don’t break the robots, they are useful. Break the system in which a machine doing work for you is a bad thing somehow.

He cooked is good, he’s cooked is bad. You’re either holding the pan or you’re in it.

My take: Intelligence is the rate at which you can acquire wisdom.

I’m a mathematician. My math brain shuts off when the units are in currency.

You guys, the truth is way more depressing. They are not even smart enough to be as evil as you’re giving them credit for.

I think what’s happening is that each individual company has a positive ROI on ads in the sense that they would lose more than a dollar in sales if they spent a dollar less on ads, but collectively the ROI is probably smaller than one: if all companies would cut their advertising budgets in half they would all be better off, as they would keep their sales roughly the same.

So adverting is less about sales volume (people don’t necessarily buy more things when they see more ads) but about market share (you get a bigger piece of the cake). Classic prisoner’s dilemma.

Exactly. Why would anyone still use Arduino when alternatives are both better and cheaper?

Honestly, I prefer randomly moved lawn. The path based ones leave these regular stripes in the lawn making it look like a soccer field.

If the conventions suck you have to break them. How else can you improve things?

map and filter are almost always inferior to generators and comprehension expressions in terms of readability. If you prefer the former, it’s just because you got used to it, not because it’s better.

That’s just because you’re used to it. The pythonic ternary is structured like spoken language, which makes it easier to read, especially if you nest them.

Is there an objective argument for the conventional ternary, other than „That’s how we’ve always done it!“?

„They are not even smart enough to be as evil as you’re giving them credit for.“
