Or you open the Weather app, it updates, you walk somewhere without cell phone reception, open the weather app again, and it shows the old temperature, and suddenly it shows --. Temperature gone. WHY?

The market is shrinking, the pressure to review code is so high, I'm kinda relieved to not be at the $last_place anymore, but looking on LinkedIn or calling around my network... there isn't a lot out there.
BUT because it is AI it's not that section that's addressed, it's about 90% of the document that now has changed, and I need to spend another gargantuan effort to review it. It's like by trying to be helpful I actually lose more time.
The AI has made it so that the thinking before writing is mostly gone, and shifted that step to the reviewers.
And the way the system is trying to sneak it in everywhere more and more makes me revolt even more.
Last time I was in a restaurant and I tried to pay with the QR code thing it suggested I paid 20% tip on top of the total + tax. Tip is supposed to go on the part before tax. Sneaking it in makes it so that the people working there think they get paid better, without the employers paying their fair share.
It should be on the employer to ensure that (s)he is properly remunerated for the work (s)he does, not the customer who has no insight in that contract.
If all of the sudden the neighborhood behind you gets rezoned to industrial and you get a datacenter nearby, everybody understands you're up in arms.
If at the same time the neighborhood behind you gets converted from 200 single-family homes to 200 8-plexes, complaining is NIMBY. Even though it has the same dramatic impact on the quality of life you bought into. Way more noise, way more street parking, cars racing late at night etc.
The rules of evidence don't apply to the victim impact statement.
So was it thrown out because it was AI? If so, could the family have hired an actor to do the impersonation?
Was it thrown out because the judge said he loved it?
To my understanding the victim impact statement must be authentic. How can we know if that is how the victim would've reacted?
Making an AI / actor say: I believe in another life we could've been friends is different from the sister saying: I believe you and my brother could've been friends in another life.
I find that to be the case with a lot of product that are low quantity, locally produced.
Almost anything you buy at a supermarket is homogenized to make sure that when you buy Brand A at Store X tastes the same as Brand A at Store Y.
And even if it's the same company, the flavor should differ year by year, because it's based on a natural product. The harvests are different.
Those limitations were put in place for a reason, and using the work-around feels dirty. I recognize that all platforms are flawed once you start to do more than they offer, but I feel that with AI its easier to build the plumbing around it.
The question shouldn't be: can you do this, but 'is this the right thing to do'?
In C you see lots of functions whose first parameter is a buffer that will be re-used.
And even in Rust you don't see this often, because reusing a buffer means having to do &mut, which means having to re-structure your code. And it's really easy to do Vec::new().

Given the integration of these modules, is it that weird that you could send signals the other way?
Now to get more currency in Assassins Creed I have to take out my credit card. Parts of the game where you earn this currency in-game are bugged, so I don't get all the currency I am owed. And when I make I try to spend the currency I get this ominous warning that this payment cannot be reversed.
This is insane. Absolute power tripping. And I say that being in favor of banning AI throughout the course.
I know they were phasing that out, but I don't remember if it was phased out for everybody, even the ones grandfathered in?
Am I looking at somebody else's usage?
> [1] Other languages - like Go or Python - have a runtime check that raises some sort of exception or panic when lst[0] is accessed on an empty list or slice.
Rust has the same thing. Accessing a `Vec` by index goes via the index trait: https://doc.rust-lang.org/std/ops/trait.Index.html#tymethod....
Vec implements Index here: https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/blob/d080e7dff1b0fc5454154...
Vec's Index defers to slice's: https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/blob/d080e7dff1b0fc5454154...
Slice defers to... intrinsics: https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/blob/d080e7dff1b0fc5454154...
Which injects a bounds check: https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/blob/d080e7dff1b0fc5454154...
The bounds check: https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/blob/d080e7dff1b0fc5454154...
So I'd say the footnote is not correct.

Of course a dealership could offer low rates, but those are usually through the financing arm of the brand, not the dealership itself.
Eventually found a doctor at Mayo who looked at the x-rays differently. He replaced my hips and life is 100x better.
