The FAQ should state explicitly that patron money will only be used for preservation, not put into GOG general revenue, if that is indeed true.

It's hyperbolic, sure, but the broad point that there are things that parents find hard to parent for reasons, and society should think about helping them out, is 100% true.
As it is we have to allow our eldest a lot more screen and social media time than we think is healthy, but it's more healthy than not having any friends.
I'm not necessarily in favour of a government ban, but I do wish more parents were on board. At the primary school (age 10) 100% of other kids had phones, and no one else seemed to give a shit.
When I was playing The Farmer Was Replaced and needed to implement sorting, I just wrote a bubble sort. Worked first time.

A backend developer subagent is going to do the job ok, but then the supervisor agent will be missing useful context about what’s been done and will go off the rails.
The ideal sub agent is one that can take a simple question, use up massive amounts of tokens answering it, and then return a simple answer, dropping all those intermediate tokens as unnecessary.
Documentation Search is a good one - does X library have a Y function - the subagent can search the web, read doc MCPs, and then return a simple answer without the supervisor needing to be polluted with all the context
Everyone’s architected a system, handled communication with stakeholders, contributed to technical direction of the team, mentored other developers, etc etc
- Safari
- Safari private mode
- Chrome private mode
and it was not able to identify me across those.I then tried
- Chrome (normal, non-private mode)
and it did identify that as a repeat Chrome visit.Does Safari have better privacy than Chrome?
I used to be up to date with .NET and Mono and stuff but I'm 10 years out of date
I showed it a picture of a street in Rome from our last holiday and the thinking traces show it was bang on but halfway through the output it just deletes it all and says it's against policy.

Is that a policy choice there? They don't want to.. not be future looking or something? I don't really get why. It made the article frustrating to read
The original diagram does this too - it has an "A && B" node.
Three things:
1. Full disclosure at that time in my life I was rather bad at motivating myself to work independently for long periods. In hindsight starting a PhD was a bad idea for this reason alone.
2. The university closed the department I was in. I was transferred to another supervisor in another department, who was nice but saw his role as more administrative. After a while he then announced he was retiring so I was looking at moving to another supervisor again.
3. I turned out to be far, far more interested in writing software than doing research. E.g I wrote an open source unit testing library in Prolog to support my research tooling. I was learning Rails on the side. I went to the Hacker News meet-up in London, and the startup that was running them offered me a job, and the rest is history!
I had sunk multiple years into it so it wasn't easy. But in hindsight it was not even a close decision.
When I quit my PhD I had an Ungraduation Party! My wife made a cake and everyone sang Happy Ungraduation To You! It was sad and happy but overwhelmingly such a relief to get out
In 2009 I wrote a lib to auto-generate Ruby bindings for Vala code. It gave a very pleasant API to create native extensions for Ruby, if you were happy using glib.
The regulatory structure of the privatized industry says the water companies can only make profits if they make capital investments, and so the amount invested in water infrastructure in the UK (particularly England) has duly gone up a lot since privatization and has been comparable or higher to other nations since.
From this point of view, it's less about choice and markets as a way to structure the regulation and ownership so that capital investment actually happens.
