I remember idiot lab staff telling me in early 1990s that I could not install the free version of Mozilla browser on university lab computers....my go to reply was can you effing read the damn TOS.....free was in the very first sentence....

There are reasons why I measure code quote input unquote via testing and static code analysis:

1. re-establishes mind mapping of the code base 2. separates out noise from signal. 3. makes it a breeze to refactor to reduce code complexity.

Notice anything yet?

If I replace the AI code input with my own curated techniques from known and measured code sources in long-term I save more time than those who rely upon AI vibe coding.

has anyone at MS tried unplugging azure and plugging azure back in yet?

remember when they sued a HS student Mike Rowe for his microrowesoft website?

Shocking that devs are forgetting that writing and testing code gives us a conceptual map of what the code does...

Almost like someone never ever learned what the core of code development is....

This is why I use zettelkatsen as my own coding AI....long term results are far better than using AI to pretend to code.

and the fun fact, the other new drug targeting the mid-receptor of acetyl-choline that functions like mu-opioid receptor also has the same exact addiction problems.

you mean its not used for the Paul brothers latest meme coin rug pulls?

What people do not understand about housing crisis:

1. Baby boomers biggest demographic group holding on to homes, that means a huge decrease in housing supply

Read it twice as that is the major obstacle, nothing more nothing less; and notice you cannot solve it by asking retirees to sell that home and downsize as over time they lost purchasing power to do exactly that move!

What people forget is that the real monopoly is in how the AOSP hardware OEM contract is written....

Remember how hard Amazon had it to attempt an Android fork?

I was due to OEM SOC access being locked out due to those contracts....

Any open source mobile OS attempting to complete with AOSP needs access to mobile OEM soc providers not touched by AOSP contracts and currently that is somewhat hard.

One of the common myths is...

If repairing auto at shop costs $1000 one should op out to spend $300 in parts and own labor.....

Paying for the wrong utility makes you remain poor as the down car repair has a very low utility to you earning that higher wage while the shop repairs your car.

It would only make high value utility sense if you did that several times and then open your own car repair shop as business owner.

Warren Buffet implies this obliquely in his writing about the choices he has made.

that was not the kicker....it was the ending comment...

Better learn how to learn as we are not training(or is that paying) you to learn...

The problem I see is the VC involvement...

VCs operate from the goal of xtreme high user market share as the problem..

As frameworks get better, the audience using the IDE changes...

Both are misaligned before even meeting and it will get worse once VC money control is added.

My bias, I am a flutter framework user and MS VSCode user.

This reads like a developer trying to make a GUI be less effective....kind of like some maligned GIT client and other dev production tools...

actually its alive and well on bluesky...my profile:

For those that need a translation....

1. For front end people, its code and design both...i.e. two jobs combining.

2. For backend, its again combining two jobs dev and server engineer...

In short words look to what two jobs will combine that you can leverage with tools that allow you to combine those two jobs in the first place. For example, front end frameworks generally allow us to combine front end dev with designer.

things are changing they found a way to decouple the membrane in producing hydrogen which significantly decreases the cost see

In production in probably 5 years from now...

it does seem safer see

I take L-theanine for ADHD

1. Theanine is an analog for Glutamate and Glutamine. 2. Due to indirect relationships to ADHD, Depression, etc. no one take Theanine by itself...I do not. 3. When drugs are created we often have incomplete pictures, for example SSSrIs for depression...we now know its both low levels in serotonin and GABA combined...bias yes I take Theanine, GABA and Glutamine for depression and it does work.

One experiment on oneself means very little...I know as I spent 36 months finding the combo that works for my depression and ADHD.

Side note, If you are developing software that hacks anything WHY IN THE HELL would you have any antivirus software installed knowing full well that antivirus software extracts any detected virus and sends it elsewhere? For context that was the excuse for the 2017 ban of Russian antivirus firm....

I had this argument with Mark Cuban recently and he admitted he was wrong, my example was using a calculator to learn calculus....

We are forgetting what general purpose name means to learning and real practical usage as a tool.

BTW the best AI and Computer Science discussions are happening on bluesky

point c is wrong...they had ads since the original yahoo contract....

fasting changes the population of the microbiome in your gi tract...

the real revolution will be when an AI tool can just be powered by our laptop to use our own codebase as the input....

Until then its just nonsense pretending to be something else...

But, was it JS alone or the rendering of JS and CSS in the browser container???

For context, the Dart Flutter stack started out with the concept to make web apps faster....

and it failed for that wrong SMS assumption....

Let's see how many flunk Literacy....

How does one value a start up asset that according to ByteDance will never ever get access to the TikTok algo powering the app?

It appears at the moment, the only one to bet on who knows what the eff they are talking about is Mark Cuban who wants to pay or buy someone creating a new tiktok clone that uses the Bluesky protocol

this is why Google's HCT color space has both a Tone as adjustment and device environment as a color adjust.

note its not just sleep meds that harm the process....

taking caffeine several hours before sleep does as well as caffeine co-competes with adenosine...adenosine serves to close the hetodimer dopamine receptors...i.e. the dopamine receptors that are tied to locomotion and other things are closed due to the action of adenosine during sleep.

that is not how those securities work....if you buy such a security you are betting on your own disaster...

How?

When you buy what is called A tranches it always has a layer of toxic non A tranches....

Once housing repossessions rose above 8% all housing mort securities were under water....

given the type of UW blackmail you need to contact a lawyer to protect your right to an education finishing your studies....do not delay that step
