Robin Williams’ character literally says in his tangent that he will never know what it is like to be an orphan. He certainly cannot tell the 'kid' how he should feel because he read Oliver Twist. He's aware that the same applies to him.
I wasn't at Princeton, but I remember blatant cheating going on and 'study groups' in CS classes that were mere passing around of completed code. (1997-2001)
I'd asked them what they expected would happen when they tried to get jobs or landed one. Like how do you fake work? They just said all jobs are group-based like their study group. (Keep in mind they were soliciting my code as their group was struggling to find solutions to assignments.)
The answer is a one of them works at a grocery store as a cashier, another one I saw now manages a bagel store (didn't know all of them). A waste of time, money, and effort to get a CS degree then just not be able to use it.
This release introduces parallel requests with continuous batching for high throughput serving, all-new non-GUI deployment option, new stateful REST API, and a refreshed user interface.
I think every profession needs to evaluate what is necessary for a license to practice. I would agree to more reforms with the MD licensing requirements.
I also think we should be licensing law-enforcement and requiring them to have their own liability insurance.
IMHO, what determines if you're a lawyer or not should be completely test-based and not have anything to do with where you learned. There is a lot of gatekeeping going on with ABA to keep people from even taking the test.
Unrelated, but one of the more annoying aspects of whatever software they use now is lack of IPv6 for the CDN layer of DigitalOcean Spaces. It means I need to proxy requests myself. :(
The evidence of AI failure is all this low hanging fruit maintenance fixes users are begging Microsoft to fix and these AI agents are not fixing them. AI was going to 10x engineers or something right? Why isn’t GitHub getting better with all this AI help?
I know there is an infinite list of reasons Siri sucks but one that really irks me is now Siri can be integrated with ChatGPT. You can also change settings so it will automatically query ChatGPT without asking…
Yet Siri will still tell you about a web results on your phone… but sometimes same question asked? Will check ChatGPT and give you an actual answer (15% hit rate?).
Install phone company app, login, and click migrate eSIM to this phone. Whole process can take up to 5min depending on how fast wifi is to connect to your phone company.
I had two friends that said the same thing and now both have iPhones. They got sick of constantly sending in their phones to be replaced for screen failures. One had a pixel other had a Samsung.
The one with a pixel final break was when he landed in Belize to start a vacation and the screen died. Entire vacation he had to borrow wife’s iPad mini to read.
