Your example sounds fine to me, but I wonder if maybe the real value of AI coding that you're seeing is not "AI writes code" but rather "AI ignores all the coding rules/conventions, which were being badly applied in this case."

Like, I could picture trying to write a simple tool as you describe and running into the wall of "We're an Angular shop so you need to use the framework." But the AI isn't forced to follow these rules, so it can do a decent job.

This has been the main value of AI to me. It's just like, "sorry, the machine won't let me do a refund," as an alternative to listening a customer scream that they deserve a refund.

They polled them. I can make out under your line that "Under ?5" (presumably "55") is 53-45 in favor of Sanders. But the smaller age breakdowns were too small.

Is this a deliberate avoidance of polling younger voters in order to boost Clinton? Or did they try polling evenly but their methodology is outdated and skewed older? Or are they getting an accurate sample of voters and the boomers are just vastly outnumbering everyone else? I don't think the answer is clear.

But I feel like drawing your circle in a way that obscures the "Under ?5" demographic which did favor Sanders and then saying that they didn't poll the demographic that favors Sanders comes off as shady. Like the pollsters, it's not clear whether it's deliberately misleading or a simple accident.

Get your own domain name. You can have Apple or Gmail or Proton host it, but if you ever decide to leave them all your emails still work.

I'd be curious to hear how you end up liking it.

As someone who spends a lot of time on the command-line, I've generally preferred MacOS over Windows as my not-Linux OS. But my impression is that for people who like the Windows or Linux GUI, MacOS is a bigger (and less pleasant) change.

And even on the command-line, MacOS is a different *nix distro and makes seme pretty weird choices (launchd, plists, /etc is actually /private/etc, ...) whereas you could have vanilla Ubuntu inside WSL2.

Capitalism is when there's an owner-class controlling production via capital. It doesn't really matter what they're producing or at what cost or who's consuming.

If you're already driving around with a mask and a gun kidnapping people, why not get some extra money on the side with robbery?

I wonder if the sleep-change fucks up our brains and that's why more people aren't upset about it.

Until this comment, I'd completely forgotten about how the most recent time-change messed up me and the puppy I've been training, because of course she needs to pee as soon as she wakes up at 6am every day...

I don't know. I might say "Matrix" and run a private server? But that's a bunch of IT work. It's attractive to use a SaaS because you don't have to do any long-term planning or hiring; just pay Slack a crazy amount of money and it all works.

Corps also like a commercial paid service because they get a contract with an SLA (even if it's rare to actually get anything from these SLAs).

I'm holding out hope that we can still turn it around and defeat Santa Claus
