Is this a joke? Please tell me you're not that dense. Those names have different iterations across different languages. Michael in Russian is Mikhael. Matthew in Spanish is Mateo. Peter in Spanish is Pablo. Names that are derived from meaning in its original language don't stay the same across languages.

What does that even mean? Aaron Swartz cowrote creative commons which was to allow for sharing some rights, not all rights. Aaron would not have stood for the scalping of people's work to create profit driven AI models. Do you just make things up without having any knowledge on the subject?

It's just a prank bro

Yeah doctors largely want to help people... Scrubs did a great job of portraying the human side of doctors and how they get squeezed in the middle of wanting to provide the best care and the healthcare industry's desire to profit at all costs.

I start a lot of stuff I never finish, does that make me a startup expert?

He should have used AI to help with his post then

Using AI on libraries you know inside and out (you know all the attributes of the classes you're working with and you know what the arguments are for every function) feels great. Using AI on libraries you're not familiar with will simply cause you to lose time because AI will give you code that returns different object types than the library is expecting. Then, instead of understanding why you're asking it to fix it, it will try variations of similar code and make up an excuse as to why now it's fixed, despite it having no clue what the problem was. Even if the code "runs" you'll have to refactor it anyways because code is not one size fits all.

It can be useful to sparking creativity but if you're not reading documentation you're just looking busy while not accomplishing much

There's a conspiracy that Jews basically hold most of the power in the world and have done so for a long time which is the perfect Boogeyman because Jews are ethnically diverse and ambiguous, indiscernible from a typical "white person"... It's not about hate, hate has to be targeted. It's about fear. Fear is the real center, the emotion that justifies hatred.

Dude I'm fucking wheezing while having hotel breakfast. What is this style of humor called? It's like a perfect combination of all my worst fears somehow made hilarious.

It used to be a way bigger deal when computers were very memory scarce, if you needed to say, represent 1024 values, that means you'd use 10 bits or 2 bytes, the remaining 6 bits could be used to store other related information like flags but more often than not it would be waste (unused values that still have to be represented as 0s)

These numbers are pretty arbitrary nowadays but they still show up a lot in computing. They didn't choose 256 so they could represent it in a byte, the real reason is probably that groups larger than 256 can't realistically be managed by users.

That's my 2¢ anyways.

That's awesome, I love hearing stories like this. I was lucky to have access to a PC since I was about 8 years old and computer literacy is probably the most useful skill I have. Nothing teaches PC literacy better than pirating software with complex readmes lol or having to fix the family computer because you infected it with a virus. Had me stressing, looking at the task manager and searching for the origins of every .exe to find the culprit

I probably wouldn't let my son install a GPU until he's a bit older just because of the cost lol but it is simple enough for a teenager to do, I think.

The real take is to get kids into PC gaming from a young age. Kids are super patient with each other and now my kid is doing things like installing mods for games that he plays. It's also massively improved his reading which is mostly how I learned English myself.

At a certain point, money is not about wealth or what you can buy with it but rather about power. And in life's twists, those who amass a decent amount of wealth and power come to believe they are "chosen" because of how society treats them. The poors worship the rich. if we were living in a sane society, these amounts of wealth would be looked at disgustingly by society. Shit is beyond fucked and I don't think anything can unfuck modern society.

if these people were any kind of Christian they would be worried about the end of their mortal lives. Instead they are speedrunning everything Christ taught us NOT to be.

Is it though? Just kidding of course I know it is. You measure ass to tip right? Right.

What are you doing for the cause lol I love how it's so easy to talk big on the Internet. Are you burning down courthouses and shooting cops?

Have you noticed that the courts are ruling against Trump's fascist policies? Do you know what will happen if Trump continues to disobey lawful orders? It becomes lawful to disobey those orders.

I know it's fun to be a doomerist online but we're not at boiling point yet. It's getting hot and people are growing more sympathetic towards minorities and understanding that if there is no due process then anyone can be targeted, journalist, opponents, etc. until that happens at large most people are unbothered.

While this sounds nice police largely have no fear of consequence because qualified immunity and even threatening to do harm against a cop carries big consequences. The truth is that lawmakers need to step up and make it clear what they're doing is illegal, that way refusing an unlawful command or protecting yourself can be easily defended in court. Shooting a cop is only going to add fuel to the fire.

Lmao same here buddy.

I hate to laugh at the suffering of others but this quote threw me... "Do I feel like I made a mistake? Possibly. Ask me again when I'm not so emotional," she added.

Baruth said her post wasn't a plea for sympathy but a call for awareness.

I can't believe how her brain is working overtime so she doesn't have to hold herself accountable for this lol. What a trait to have. Would probably vote for him again
