Such a shame that this great article is not published in Spanish alongside the original English publication.

Only about 13% of people speak Spanish in Mexico [0], and while Google translate does an ok job, publications like this would be immensely more impactful if they could reach the people they are written about.

Isn't the underlying concept of AI detectors BS as well? You could say something like "We cannot guarantee beyond reasonable doubt that this content is AI generated". Which one could argue is also always true.

b.ing goes for 130k

For the incredible and low price of 130K.

Now imagine if he were to use Microsoft Word and had to manually change all the uppercase letters to lowercase.

I don't think it is a matter of telling "other countries" what rights they have or impose the U.S.'s view on people who aren't citizens but of consistently exercising human rights within U.S. jurisdiction (which includes visa applications).

Yes, you are right, what I should have written was that there is no peer-reviewed clinical evidence of long term negative effects solely caused by the toxicity of psilocybin.

The problem here is that there is no evidence. All the evidence of negative effects so far is anecdotal, which in reality calls for more research in the area [0]. In addition, only about 0.2% report having sought emergency treatment [1] when using psylocibin.

Except, we have known for centuries that psylocibe is benign. The Nahua people in Mexico's Central Valley people have been using them for ceremonial purposes for centuries with no addictive side effects ever reported; its use even being described in Spanish colonial codices [0]. They are only "new" to the Western culture. In contrast, we have known for centuries that opioids are extremely addictive. [1]

Not necessarily. Once you are used to your editor opening in a few milliseconds, everything else feels like ages. I would argue the opposite: we have gotten used to slow software being the norm.

However, not being able to explore such feelings ends up making you an unsympathetic person, as you cannot bare these feelings with others.

Another argument is that you are denying yourself of the experience of being human. These feelings exist for a reason, just as physical pain exists for a reason. You wouldn't hurt yourself on purpose (or maybe you do c;), but physical pain helps you stay safe. I feel this is the same purpose of negative feelings.

Finally, I have found out that suppressing these feelings does not allow you to fully process and heal from the events that trigger them.

I feel that a sign of being a good programmer is recognizing you are not a good programmer.

Then again, this is not me, but Socrates speaking.

I am very sure they weren't speaking literally...

Am I the only one that thinks this is a huge waste of resources?

1. There are simpler tools that solve this [0].

2. 50 lines of code are manageable even for inexperienced devs which you are replacing for a non-deterministic complexity behemoth.

3. Lines of code are not really a good indicator of how complex a problem is.

However, the poster mentions parallelism in conjunction with floating point arithmetic, not parallelism by itself.

But a milking machine that spills half of the milk doesn't help the farmer nor the cow.

Is it me, or a Git repository, (either externally hosted or self-hosted) sounds like could work as a memex?

You have a shared folder backed by version control.

You have projects which can serve as memex projects, and issues which you can edit via markdown and link to the files in the repo.

Plus you got CI-CD that allows you to have access to a cloud environment to perform work.

It would seem that some of their tools are open source [0].

This is why TDD is not good when starting from scratch.

Your abstractions might change in a way that they break your tests in a major way, and not only do you end up re-writing a great part of your code but also of your test set.

Yet

Tangentially related, but it got me thinking. Does this mean that Copilot and friends are always writing old code?

Yep, I have ended up doing the same with Tailwind, because in the end you end up with unmanageable inline styles.

I would recommend you to try Open Props [0], which you can use with Tailwind CSS, and see how what we all really crave is a good utility class system.

Ahhh ok, that sounds much more logical. I got the wrong impression :)

I do think that the real value of Tailwind comes from the utility classes, rather than css-in-html paradigm. You could achieve the same, for example, with Pollen.css [0] or Open Props [1].

HTML and CSS are indeed a hot mess in some respects.

However, Tailwind is definitely not the solution, as it is the same as adding a style attribute to each html tag and writing the style in the html. What is valuable about Tailwind imho is the concept of utility classes, which can be accomplished with vanilla css variables.

Which is no different from creating a styles.css file, writing your classes there, and importing it into your html...

Which pretty much validated the author's claim.

Seems to be hinting at the comments from this HN story [0]. Don't fuel the flame, but make your own conclusions.

> I created a restricted key in Stripe with lowest possible permissions, and prompted ChatGPT to create a script to accept the chargebacks.

From my understanding, it also seems that the author submitted a Stripe API key alongside the prompt to create the scripts. This is pretty much a big security no no regardless of the permissions of the key.
