The reason I posted this tale is it taught me as a child to be kind to a machinery that behaves human-like. That's why I usually start my conversations with LLMs with "Would you please" while rationally understanding that they are most likely are not sentient beings. What are your fiction stories that gave you similar effect?

It seems that no one is playing basketball these days... It looks like that only one out of 10 has players.

Apparently this project is now fully open sourced and developed outside Microsoft https://github.com/BosqueLanguage/BosqueCore/discussions/66#...

I don't understand business model of the company behind Penpot (Kaleidos). Their products doesn't offer anything paid but I see a button "Invest in us". For me this tells that their products will eventually become non-free and only open-source in a way that it can export SVG.

I think that most of those railroads have nothing to do with children operation - it was just a narrow gouge standard railway for less intensive commuting, some specific industrial purposes (like bringing fresh cut wood from forest or clay from careers) or even military (railroad system build around Vilnius during Polish rule in 1930's to provide ammunition to underground forts) and some was built way before soviet union occupied Baltics.

In Lithuania this narrow gouge standard is called "Siaurukas" (eng. "narrowy") and some parts are still being operated as a tourist attraction [1][2]

I will never trust Adobe on their development platforms after they were lying to developers about bright Flash future while silently killing it and wasting number of years of their careers on dead horse.

This tool is perfect for generating useless LinkedIn content. For example this phrase was auto-completed "Yesterday I had an interview with a candidate":

Yesterday I had an interview with a candidate for a mid-level developer role. At the end of the interview, we asked about his background in IT and found out that he'd never used any sort of development tools or language except Visual Basic in the past. He'd just stuck with the IDE that came with his software.

Although I understand the desire to do things the way you're familiar with and comfortable with, this is probably the most dangerous mistake you can make in the context of hiring. I've been thinking about this for a while now, and I want to share what I think is an important lesson with you.

In the past several years, Ruby on Rails has gone from new kid on the block to the dominant application server for most new web applications. Although Ruby is a great language, the community has been known to turn on new developers at times, and it can be a bit overwhelming for a newcomer.

People must learn some patience instead of wasting our time and talent on optimizing stuff for those milliseconds.
