IBM has models trained for older mainframe usage (RPG II, RPG/400, COBOL, etc) so I imagine it would be very good for that. Bob looks like a branded fork of vs code or vscodium.

If it's open then there will be multiple providers. I see it is on OpenRouter now.

I tried this also. I was wanting to arrange a piece for jazz band. It had good advice, from a textual standpoint, but the lilypond music very rarely made sense unless I asked it for something very simple like 12-bar blues.

Is there a link to a non-broken website? This one continuously resizes itself, which makes it very hard to read.

Sorry, but I'd be dead without mine. I'm going to have to disagree with you.

Scent sensitivity is a real, and ADA protected, disability. Why do I have to have an asthma attack or a migraine because someone has to express themselves through chemical warfare? Perfumes are as bad for people's health as second hand smoke, and one in twenty or so people everywhere feel just like I do.

We solved this a long time ago with crypto. Just sign everything.

Why not Delphi? And why not Lazarus?

It seems like AI will generate opportunities for fixing code. Both in reducing internal technical debt ("code maintenance", which is a specialized skill already) and external technical debt (architecture, which is being built by AI also). Eventually AI will be good enough for both of these things as well, and then we may just become the priests of the Temples of Syrinx.

The US Treasury and currency aren't important?

U.S. Treasury bills underpin the financial systems of the world, but most especially that of the United States. This is an ELE for the US.

Bureaucracy is there to protect us from people like Trump and Elon. Congress can pass laws and the president can issue orders. This action threatens the US financial system, which threatens the economic stability of most of the world. In terms of human suffering this could have massive impact. We now have a psychopath (well, at least one) with his fingers around our throats. We're all waiting to see what comes next, but it won't be good.

I'm sorry, but reason magazine has personally made my life difficult by participating in medical gaslighting. There may be something to some of this, but I'm not inclined to trust them at face value.

There's always the hope that the average voter can find their way to a considered, moral vote. That didn't happen.

My law professor told me to never sign a contract I didn't modify in some way, so I usually change these to be something I like better before hitting accept.

Because around 5% of people are profoundly unreasonable to the point of malignancy. That explains a lot of human behavior, actually.

Does it cause you problems in work or life? Then yes. If you don't know the answer then maybe it's worth trying for a while to see how it goes.

Beware, though, the first few weeks on ADHD meds can be intense (finding motivation you didn't know you didn't have), but they don't really last forever. Your brain adapts.

ADHD meds don't take away the superpower part as far as I've noticed. They just enhance it.

The thing that seems to be missed here is that passive aggression is a perfectly valid way to deal with direct and immature aggression, such as you get with personality disorders. Maintaining a level of deniability isn't always a bad thing. And any idealization of "direct aggressiveness" is just an excuse for psychopaths (or NPD, BPD, etc). Of which I've had enough in my life, thank you very much.

It's sad that much of the discussion here is effectively excusing fascism. Another case where passive aggression is a perfectly valid and mature coping mechanism.

Yet another clickbait title. Correlation is not causation.

The basic idea is sound. But the majority of the examples are strangely politically biased and in my experience they are things I've never heard from the 1%.

This is exactly right. And codeless tends to not have the capability of dealing with complexity very well, meaning architecture is brittle.

I'll just sit over here with my multiple chemical sensitivities that are somehow "controversial". How asthma and migraines can be controversial I'll never know. But those jerks in the "fragrance" industry that tried to paint this as "ideopathic" are every bit as bad as the tobacco industry. But hey, propane scented candles are so nice!

Why can't we just come out and say that the agent / capital model is consumer antagonistic and work on fixing it? This is just a symptom, the cause needs to be addressed by the legislature.

There are so many things left unsaid, but implied, in this post. I love it.

It's pretty easy to say "terminal based" or "text mode" instead of CLI, which is misleading. I was expecting an alternative to sed.

I agree, in general, with the point of the article. But why does everybody have to make fun of Biden's speech issues (Stuttering)? That's a pretty low blow, bro.

This is what medicine is like in the US. I've heard so many doctors complain about patients using "Dr Google" in one breath, then dismissing symptoms in the next. But hey, medical insurance companies are making lots of money! So everything is great!

Both of these statements have a significant number of cases where they are not true.

Unions are just another corporation. They balance the corporation that owns the assets. Nobody is locking anything down, they're just signing contracts. This is healthy for competition, not stifling.

I would like to point out that none of your options are free... the closest would be to print staff paper on paper and hand write the notes. Which a lot of people won't like much because they don't have the skills for even that.
