The only time I use Reddit is when I land there via a Google search. Posts get flagged as mature at the drop of a hat, so my go-to has always been to replace www with old. Now that it's gone, I'll just skip Reddit links.
It was closed-book. Take-home, closed-book seems like an oxymoron anyway.
A lot of the cheating students would have concluded that other students are going to cheat and get a much better result, so they might as well do the same.
As an Australian, I'm happy to hear this, but also annoyed that a lot of legitimate SMS from companies don't use branded sender ID. I'm not sure why, but my guess is that SMS gateways charge more for it and businesses don't want to pay the extra cent or two.
AI has a way of exposing people. In this example, students who are there to get a degree from a prestigious institution, rather than to learn, are prone to take perceived shortcuts and proceed to come unstuck when their AI isn't there to do their work for them, such as in an exam.
> But there's one performance-related area where the Framework pulls ahead—a little—and that's sustained performance. When running a heavy workload like HPL (a FP64 HPC task, that taxes the CPU and RAM constantly for many minutes), the Framework's fans allow it to throttle less than the Neo.
People are seeing big gains in sustained performance on MacBook Neo with a simple thermal pad mod. The disadvantage is the underside of the Neo can get hot, but that's not an issue if it's sitting on a desk instead of your lap.
I was all in on Svelte and SvelteKit until I started encountering CSS weirdness caused by a bug that the Svelte developers said is "by design", namely that components' CSS isn't removed from the document after the last instance of that component is no longer rendered. This resulted in a situation in which styles became dependent on the navigation path the user takes, leading to weird an unpredictable layout issues. I couldn't stomach solving this by using Tailwind.
Then Svelte 5 came along and made Svelte more like React. At first, there were just a few simple runes, but then the runes started proliferating like crazy to solve other runes' problems. At that point, Svelte was dead to me and I went back to React/Next.
The right path for Svelte to take would have been to continue to refine Svelte 4.
I love how I can see the HTML being streamed onto the page in real time, like the good old days of dialup when images gradually rendered from top-to-bottom.
The C64 does have a couple of bitmap modes. The Last Ninja uses mode 3, which is multicolor bitmap mode. It occupies 9000 bytes including pixels (8000 bytes) and color RAM (1000 bytes).
Only a few years ago, there was a study showing that regular caffeine use reduces blood flow to the brain by up to 30%, leading to lower brain volume and increased risk of dementia.
I don't agree with this take in the article. One person with Claude Code can replace a team of devs. It resolves many issues, such as the tension between devs wanting to focus and devs wanting their peers to put aside their task to review their pull requests. Claude generates the code and the human reviews it. There's no delay in the back-and-forth unlike in a team of humans. There's no ego and there's no context switching fatigue. Given that code reviewing is a bottleneck, it's feasible that one person can do it by themselves. And Claude can certainly generate working code at least 10x faster than any dev.
