If someone is going to Wikipedia specifically looking for information in a STEM field, then an AI summary isn’t going to help them. Odds are they can also read, because they’re looking up STEM topics.
Also, is Wikipedia not available around the world, or you just think only Americans can’t read? Inflammatory just for the sake of being inflammatory I’m guessing. Shit troll job.
It’s not important. You said AI isn’t being marketed to be able to do everything. I said yes it is. That’s it.
You are both completely over estimating the intelligence level of “anyone” and not living in the same AI marketed universe as the rest of us. People are stupid. Really stupid.
Marketing does not mean functionality. AI is absolutely being sold to the public and enterprises as something that can solve everything. Obviously it can’t, but it’s being sold that way. I would bet the average person would be surprised by this headline solely on what they’ve heard about the capabilities of AI.
I’m not an old hat programmer and have never been forced to use VIM, but I started learning how to navigate because of the potential efficiencies that comes with it, and because I like to learn new things. I’m not good at it, but I’ve gotten a lot better, and I will continue to do so because it’s enjoyable, neovim is extremely customizable, and the vim key bindings can be used in vscode for when I use that. I also use Linux, so it felt like the right direction to go, but mostly for the memes.
I don’t use it for high level language coding like python, JS, and definitely nothing.net related like c#, but it’s solid for lower level like C.
You don’t have to enjoy it, but there are some extremely skilled programmers out there that can code laps around other extremely skills programmers just because they use vim/neovim and can navigate at a stupid fast rate. Watching some like the Primeagen on YT is humbling.
Valid point. Which makes it even dumber that I can’t buy corrective lenses with a prescription a doctor once gave me that arbitrarily expired. It’s not like eye prescriptions tend to change significantly, and if it’s like other drug prescriptions, no need to worry about me growing an addiction to contacts, I’m already there.
The thing is, if you’re eyes are unsuitable for contacts, you’ll know really quickly. I would think almost anyone that would buy contacts without an active prescription, has already tried contacts. You still have to know the numbers, so at some point there was an active prescription. I’ve never been to an eye doctor that didn’t give free contacts samples, so there’s that option too.
True for glasses, illegal for contacts. It’s the dumbest shit ever. I don’t need a prescription for band aids, why do I need one for eye correction?

I think when it comes to the code that controls the navigation, control, detonation, etc, or our munitions, that perhaps that should not be publicly reviewable. Not because of hacking concerns, but it does give info to a potential enemy that could render them less effective.
Too many to count, but I learned this lesson. I just struggled with nuance in gramer as a fucking 1st grader.
WTF is this dog shit title? It’s not the title of the article and gives literally no value to the content.
I have a vivid memory when I was in first grade and asked my teacher if I can use the bathroom, and I got his bullshit response. I was a first grader, so I sat my ass back down and held it. Fuck this horse shit mentality.
Fine, if you’re an adult, it’s juvenile, but at that point people should understand the difference. Doesn’t mean I won’t lambast a MFer for being a pedantic prick though.
Ew. I didn’t think of it that way, but your right. Hopefully the seniors are tech smart and not just MS smart.
Low level programming skills in a low level language, C being the most popular. With memory safe languages like rust gaining more traction, C may eventually be a thing of the past, but imo, learning C will make you a better programmer in all languages because if you know C you know how everything works. Other than that, it could be something that uses a specific language like Arduino. Embedded programming is generally programming that interfaces with hardware directly, so really it’s just knowing how to program, and then doing it in a specific area.
There’s a good book called Code: the hidden language of computer hardware that goes in depth of computer architecture and build up from there.
I hope so. I would have loved the opportunity to be in that position, and if I was still working as a sys admin, I’d still live it.
Assuming the IT staff isn’t comprised of a bunch of junior techs that only know the Microsoft suite and not the actual inner workings of how email and Linux works.
As a millennial, I’m starting to relate more and more. The world changes very quickly, and all of the sudden things you knew as fact have different meanings, and there are new words and stuff. It’s not all bad change, but it’s change, and odds are, I’m finding out something changed the hard way.
I forgot to send this cunt an email the other day when I hit up Chuck, Miller-Meeks, and Hinson. I should get on that.
I think the biggest problem, is anytime you try and create a universal, low/no-code platform that anyone can use, it results in a poorly optimized, sandboxed, half cocked product. Sure, you can do anything with the platform, but half the time it’s like shoving a square peg in a round hole. I have had to write bad code and processes because that is the only way to get somethings done in the platform.
Also, if I go out and custom create an app, like say I create a fully loaded app for HR, and it’s similar to a product they sell, they will charge you for that product.
Edit… I reread your comment and realized that python does it differently and that everything I typed was irrelevant… I’m still gonna leave it if anyone is interested in ternary expressions, but I suppose the answer to your question is, that’s just how python does it.
That’s how ternary operators are designed to work. In essence, if you’re looking to do a single line if/then, you can directly assign a variable from the result of a ternary expression.
As an example, I was scripting something earlier where there may or may not be a value returned from a function, but I still had to do something with that return value later. For this thing, I was using JavaScript.
I ended up with:
return platform == "name" ? "Option 1" : "Option 2"If I were to write that out in a typical if/then it would be:
if (platform == "name") { return "option 1" } else { return "option 2" }A ternary starts with a boolean expression, then the if true value, else the false value. That’s returned to either a variable or if in a function like my example, to the object calling the function. It’s just a way to write less code that in many cases is easier to read.
