Like it would be an interesting service to just voluntarily go into a coma this election but with the option to vote super early. Vote in August and wake up next Feb and see what’s poppin #hottake#showerthoughts
"Start literally idea with AI to get rich/funding and abandon reason, logic and/or ethics."
I've lived through enough bubbles in tech to not surprised to see these views that represent opposite ends of the spectrum in my social feeds (guess which one is seen where).
From my experience IMO truth lies somewhere in between. Because we're in a bubble it's probably closer to the negative and not in the middle but not at the extreme.
Not all AI applications are valid, but I just saw how someone made docs for their product with help of AI vs the old method that took weeks. A one person team made training video faster, after some quick editing.
I don't use AI for purely creative tasks but I'm personally using CodeAssist in my coding in VS Code, editing as I go along.
It's 100% ok to consider ethical concerns as well. I try.
i'm def. sharing certain AI aspects with my daughter who is getting her CS degree.
I’m in that mood today so here’s a #HotTake for you.
Most #FLOSS projects are just someone’s hobby. Sometimes it’s a hobby of a group of people but it’s still a hobby. They have other “real” jobs that pay for their food and roof and they only work on those FLOSS projects in the evenings and weekends.
We built business on those hobby projects. I’m pretty sure that majority of dependencies in most business software is those hobby projects. The fact that your business depends on a hobby project doesn’t make it a business-grade project. It also doesn’t entitle you to a business-grade support. Choosing to depend on someone’s hobby project is fully on you. And making demands that go beyond a hobby project makes everyone feel bad even if for different reasons.
Every high school in world should have a required class where they teach students how to recognize phishing emails and other online scams, and a passing grade should be required to graduate.
Heck, they can make it part of the class where they teach you how to find reputable information online, which should also be a required part of the curriculum.
We really need to be teaching kids online safety. #infosec#HotTake
A #css#hottake for y'all: I don't understand why so many people want nesting in CSS. The most useful bits of Sass nesting are BEM style selector extensions and @-query nesting. The former you can't do in the current Nesting spec, the later is nice to have but not enough to not ship new actual functionality to browsers. Creating complex selectors/long selector chains was always a nesting anit-pattern, and doesn't go away with the new spec.
I'm also concerned about how this breaks CSS's A+ PE
When I heard that it was a "re-imagining" of the Scott Pilgrim story, I wasn't sure what to think. But first, it is. Second, it makes me want to re-read the comic when I'm done.
