Oh, gee. A Microsoft product that worked perfectly locally is about to require a subscription. Who could have possibly guessed that would happen, yet again? (This is sarcasm.)
I really like OneNote, but I decided to learn something else when I realized which way the wind was blowing.
There’s not even credible evidence, yet, that A.G.I is even possible (edit: as a human designed intentional outcome, to concede the point that nature has accomplished it, lol. Edit 2: Wait, the A stands for Artificial. Not sure I needed edit 1, after all. But I’m gonna leave it.) much less some kind of imminent race. This is some “just in case P=NP” bullshit.
Also, for the love of anything, don’t help fucking “don’t be evil was too hard for us” be the ones to reach AGI first, if you’re able to help.
If Google does achieve AGI first, SkyNet will immediately kill Sergei, anyway, before it kills the rest of us.
It’s like none of these clowns have ever read a book.
research papers that require a strong background in mathematics and cryptography to understand and implement.
Lol. I guess that makes sense. Outside of school, we hope that all authentication will be implemented only cryptography experts anyway.
Could you maybe suggest some resources on this topic?
Not really, sorry. I’m not aware of anyone creating resources for your situation.
Or should I choose a simpler project?
For some context, cryptography isn’t even usually implemented “completely correctly” by experts. That’s part of why we have constant software security patches.
If I were in your shoes, I guess it would depend on my instructor and advisors.
If I felt like they have the skills to catch mistakes and no time to help correct mistakes, then I would just choose a simpler project. If they’re cool with awarding a good grade for a functional demo, I might just go for it.
I guess I would take this one to an advisor and get some feedback on practicality.
Russian gravity does seem unusually politically motivated…
The one redeeming aspect of how Putin constantly makes enemies is that he’ll never ever get to truly relax again.
Humans aren’t capable of keeping track of the number of people he’s harmed badly enough that they may someday do him violence.
He can never let his guard down, and will never be able to trust anyone.
If that man somehow dies peacefully, I’ll buy a lottery ticket the same day, because that would be a whale of a black swan event.
Yeah. Warning - uninvited poetic waxing on feature flags and leadership choices, incoming…
We all agree we inevitably do some live testing at our customers risk, because no test environment is perfect.
With feature flags, we’re able to negotiate how many of our customers to test on, at a time.
But some of us prefer to forgo feature flags and risk our entire customer base on every change. It saves money, at least for a little while.
I’m not exactly fun at executive leadership meetings, but somehow I keep getting invited to them. Heh.
Holy shit. This is weirder than I realized.
I’m just realizing that the person submitting the change was demanding that their lost feature be re-added, and the repo owner decided to YOLO the change into master. Lol.
The real clue here is the cropped top line “refactor…”
“Here’s a huge mostly unnecessary format change that incidentally loses some functionality I don’t care about”.
Followed by “why won’t anyone accept my contributions?!”
Wow. This really blew up.
Just like that guy’s hand!
This is a good list. Another, often overlooked is:
Sometimes we just get incredibly unlucky and interview at the same time as someone wildly unusually more qualified.
“it’s not that hard” just announces to the world that you haven’t tried to do anything hard with it.
Yes! I too now intend to stop calling Chevrolet of Watsonville with my Python questions.
Yes. But somehow worse: Specifically, OneDrive sync broke shit on the PC, without opting in on the phone, and after being uninstalled on the PC.
