to me, reading these overviews is a very rewarding experience, as every article title in the category gives me a rewarding rush of memories and context all related to a common theme. and if I don't know about a topic, it's an effective way to find the gaps in my knowledge. maybe it's not a traditional form of art, but I can see how it's a unique way to interact with a large domain of content.

Sorry, I must missing something here, but how is he being a raging asshole? Looking through the linked code review, he's definitely very direct, and I can see how profanity is often uncomfortable to people who are used to formality, but he doesn't seem to attack anyone personally or focus on anything besides the technology?

Yeah, what would you define as "lots of money"? Here in the midwest, I'd say that >$50k/year would be making more than my entire family combined, so it seems like all software developers do make lots of money to me.

I concur: The quality of results from Google's experimental AI preview is much higher than Bard. Notable features include consistently relevant and concise results (in my personal experience), effective citation of sources, and inclusion of multimedia sources such as video embeds.

Also, I'll note that Bard has been receiving continued attention and support from Google, last being updated today. [1]

Great article! The phrase "true and false are both atoms" confused me, as I didn't know what atoms were, but I'm not quite sure how that information could be included earlier without feeling jarring.

Also, "Not that there is only one type of pipe |> and it feeds the output into the first argument of the next function." Did you mean "Note that"?

Either way, thanks for sharing! I'm excited to learn more about Elixir.

> Awwh I liked them though.

Same! I think it's great when websites add characters to provide a relatable emotional core to their content.

I thought this video was a good breakdown of Elon's livestream: https://youtu.be/ZI7-Swmuo4A

I've done 3 remote internships in total, to be clear, and I've enjoyed all of them.

I didn't know about this!

It's interesting that "local-variable" and "instance-variable" are hyphenated, but "class variable" contains a space. I wonder why that is?

Wow! That's quite the gold mine of resources! Thanks for sharing.

Interesting! I hadn't heard of these resources. I see they have a lot of paid certifications that might be out of our budget, but that's super interesting! thanks for sharing.

I used Ubuntu for many years, and I switched to Fedora about a year ago, and I've been really enjoying the experience.

Not sure about that one: I studied this speech in high school as an example of effective rhetoric.

I recently found out that there's an amazing term for internet-connected sex toys: Teledildonics

I'm surprised to see the spread of emoji attributed to Microsoft in the initial sentences. It's possible that the author may be referring to the smiley faces in extended character pages, or maybe Webdings, but I generally associate the term 'emoji' with Unicode characters specifically, which I believe to have been petitioned by Google and popularized by Apple.

Interesting article either way.

I've always assumed my experience after death will be a parallel of my experience before birth: nothing.

If you want to learn more about Hamming Codes from a mathematical perspective, I recommend 3Blue1Brown's YouTube series:

Associated with Ben Eater's video, if you want a perspective regarding low level computer hardware:

Yeah, I used to take pride in always being willing to help people out with programming, but over time I've ended up saying "I'm too busy" more and more often.

To be honest, most of the time, I'm not busy. I just don't have the energy to constantly be a tutoring service.

Personally, I have no difficulty navigating to different parts of my screen, and I don't consider it saving space if it removes something I actually want to be prominent.

However, I can see your point, and the design probably be more approachable if I had a higher-end computer with a good screen.

That's a good option, though I also enjoyed the audiobook of Ignition! on Audible.

This is so exciting! The Asahi team has done some really impressive work. I can't wait for it to start to make its way into mainstream distributions.

The author apparently did not intend widespread readership:

> Whoever is out there, please stop clicking my link. I used to get 10 views a day from Vtuber wannabes and it's now a weekday. I don't even consider it a good enough summary! I thought the 60 views yesterday on the post was good, and now it's a hundred times that! What. Is. Happening.

> Seriously, this is weird. I already got two pingbacks from suspicious sites stealing my post. Joke's on them though, I'm constantly editing it when I have time.

Highlighting this tweet in particular:

> Here's a chunk of pyrolytic graphite on the same magnet with the same stick. Even with less density and more surface normal to field.... It doesn't lift off. If it's diamagnetism it's a fucking absurdly strong one

Her findings, and suggestions of manufacturing process improvements, are very interesting.

Personally, as someone with limited familiarity with Erlang, I had difficulty reading this site on mobile, due to the text wrapping on mobile. Maybe it's more intelligible to someone who's familiar with the language, but I would have appreciated scrollable, full width code blocks instead of text wrapping.

I would say that American car-centric development and distrust of others go hand in hand. The more people wall themselves away into their castles in the suburbs, the less they feel part of a community, and the more they distrust others.

Because my identity isn't defined by my work? I mainly prioritize my friends, family, and community. I'm happy to take a boring, pointless job if it pays well and I'm never working overtime.

but you're already on the Y website right now...
