Custom domains aren't a panacea, I own my last name as an email domain, but my last name is one letter different from a building supply company in my country . I regularly get purchase orders sent to me instead of them, so even in a small country with a custom domain you can't escape misaddressed email

The hydrogen cells in production and used in motorsport are literally bulletproof. The type of accident that results in your tank exploding would have to be so severe you would be dead before the gas had time to ignite.

The fact that you can go on reddit right now and enjoy it without all the annoying power users is only more reason to start visiting in my books. Hell I might even finally download the app.

Just because code exists in a copyrighted project doesn't mean that it is on the only instance of that code in the world.

In a lot of scenarios, there is an existing best practice or simply only one real 'good' way to achieve something - in those cases are we really going to say that despite the fact a human would reasonably come to the same output code, that the AI can't produce it because someone else wrote it already?

Is there a way to read it without the ass-backwards UI?

Maintainability and performance are often at odds, but that doesn't mean you should throw out one for the other in every case, and I don't think that's what people like Robert C. Martin were ever intending with Clean Code.

It's like database denormalization, it may violate normalization principals but it when applied to a well designed database is a valid optimization technique when done with proper understanding of the implications of said optimizations.

More importantly though, we are willing to sacrifice raw performance for developer experience and higher maintainability because developer time is expensive, and most stakeholders would prefer that you can add feature xyz in a reasonable time, over feature xyz running marginally faster. If ease of development and maintenance weren't important, we'd just write everything in assembly and bypass all these abstractions altogether.

I feel like a lot more questions get ass-covering answers from the legal department now, and it seems to really, really want to caveat almost everything it says on any subject. Pretty much every AI service that has launched so far has gone through the same cycle of initially being really powerful, then slowly being hamstrung by negative press and legal departments.
