GrqPon Bus stops here: Shanghai lets riders design their own routes

Thank gawd for self driving cars…

This.

GrqPon Modern C (2019)

There are some good books to give you that kind of delta for C++11/14/17/20.

  Modern C++ for Absolute Beginners
  Modern C++ Programming Cookbook
  et al.

I'm actually starting to like C++ again. Weird.

GrqPon StackOverflow petition to allow removing AI generated content

I generally agree if the content can be kept clean. Certainly, human users will have more to contend with.

There are just so many interesting questions by having chatbots interact with StackOverflow:

What happens when AI-powered accounts are allowed to vote?

What kind of questions might AI-powered accounts be asking or be interested in?

How will the questions/answers/responses change between model revisions?

You can imagine things spiraling out of control. Perhaps there needs to be a chatbot version of StackOverflow to service all the questions that interest chatbots. :P

GrqPon Lessons by 3blue1brown

I'm in the same boat.

Although I find instructional videos helpful in understanding concepts, the knowledge is fleeting. Exercises would be helpful, but IMHO, sometimes you need the support of a cohort or TA to solve problems in a different way.

MOOCs are pretty good. They have instructional videos, exercises and a cohort. Still, they seem to be missing something. AI will push online learning to 2.0.

GrqPon Dotfiles Management

Does this approach work with submodules? The reason I ask is because some of my configs rely on configs from other repos.

GrqPon The worst part of working from home is now haunting reopened offices

For knowledge workers, on-site today seems a lot like off-site of yesteryear. This time it's an unscheduled, unscripted team-building exercise, where you pay to attend and a fraction show up.

Lots to figure out. Exciting times for HR and recruiters.
