try it with something more "obscure" like e.g. creating an OPC/Ua Server from scratch.

It fails spectacularly - the code wont even compile and there are many things missing to get a working solution.

probably not a good paper ...

has been criticised by several sources

one interesting comment :

Only about 65% of Japanese people have received 3 doses.

Cancer patients are more likely to receive 3 or more doses than the average person since they have more contact with the healthcare system.

Who’s most likely to die of cancer? Cancer patients.

There’s your correlation...

"... when examining only those who passed the exam (i.e. licensed or license-pending attorneys), GPT-4’s performance is estimated to drop to ∼48th percentile overall, and ∼15th percentile on essays ..."

so this means that ChatGPT is right in the middle of the performance of licensed or license-pending attorneys.

and for essays its still better than 15 percent of the humans.

Still quite impressive ...

from their website ".... can now enjoy the milestone innovations of the 11 Alexandria Pro edition.."

which means that you cannot use "Client-Server" databases (Mysql, Postgres, etc.), only localhost access is supported.

you can use ZeosLib etc. but its just one more hurdle to take.

apparently based on very flawed arguments

according to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amazon_Music

there are lots of countries where you can not buy DRM free music from amazon (afaiu what the OP was referring to)

so the problem is how to find a shop where you can buy your super rare tracks ...

(i assume some will also be bootlegs or other fan-made recordings - you wont find those in a shop)

tldr version:

Principles are like rules:

you are either compliant or you are not. This gives rise to “bounded sets” of rule-followers and rule-enforcers rather than “centred sets” of people with shared values.2

Instead, I started thinking about properties:

qualities or characteristics of code rather than rules to follow.

Properties define a goal or centre to move towards. Your code is only closer to or further from the centre, and there is always a clear direction of travel.

.....

and then he gives a list of five properties that good architectures can aim for.

if you look at this tweet

https://twitter.com/lonnibesancon/status/1488409297860153345

..." The series in which this is published does not peer-review, and contains all of the last authors' work... ... that major papers are omitted in this "meta-analysis" "

So no peer-review,

written in a journal that has close ties to one of the authors

and omitted major papers that should have been included.

zettlr is also missing - opensource and really nice (also goog for zettelkasten)

15 years after Scrum was invented and 10 years after the Agile Manifesto someone writes such an article ?

I agree that knowledge about Agile was not widespread enough in 2011, but this reads like something from the early 90s.

Missing from the list is Zettlr https://zettlr.com/ which is opensource, looks very nice and is built for the Zettelkasten method and has LaTeX integration.

Was quite useful for some university classes.

I agree about the insane pricing.

If you want to use the Prof. version and still have DB-access then there exist some open source components like https://sourceforge.net/projects/zeoslib/

OTOH my 20-year project is still trucking along using D2010 and Dbisam as the DB-layer...
