tasubotadas··on Elon Musk makes $43B unsolicited bid to take Twitter private
This is great news.

Twitter definitely has potential but at the moment it is a cespool of triggered personalities where the voice of the sane and interesting people is drowned in an endless screaming.

tasubotadas··on Daniel Gross: Why Energy Is the Best Predictor of Talent
I've hired in the past a person that spoke minimally during the interview and during work calls (as like, convey the needed info with the least words possible) and he was crushing it at work later.

Also, I've worked with a super energetic person who couldn't stand in his place, talked way too much, was rude, and, in general, unbearable. He was fired later.

So... maybe to soon generalize.

tasubotadas··on Dependency injection in Go with Uber-go/fx

You don't need to create a "simple combination" of Singletons, Constructors, and Factories.

I am now really looking forward to see Steam Deck launch
tasubotadas··on Competitive Programming with AlphaCode
I just hope that this shows how useless competitive programming is that it can be replace by the Transformer-model.

Additionally, people should REALLY rething their coding interviews if they can be solved by a program.

tasubotadas··on German gov plans software company's liability for damages caused by vulns
Market incumbents quite often welcome the new regulation. It helps them to avoid competition by creating entry barriers.
tasubotadas··on German gov plans software company's liability for damages caused by vulns
What if they claim that they don't know? You know... haven't got the memo.
tasubotadas··on German gov plans software company's liability for damages caused by vulns
Users. They shouldn't use software that they haven't wetted as secure.

No amount of regulation will save users from installing a hundred of toolbars if they want to do that.

But it will hinder legitimate programmers from publishing useful software (especially free and open source software).

Have you ever thought about taking responsibility yourself instead of blaming corps/gov/others?
tasubotadas··on Amazon’s Alexa assistant told a child to do a potentially lethal challenge
I fail to see how is this responsibility of Alexa.

It's parent's fault for letting children use devices like Alexa. Stupid chatbots will always give stupid answers.

tasubotadas··on Netflix for Documentaries for $15/Year
I subscribed to this the last year, just to support something that's non-Youtube.
tasubotadas··on The ER charged him $6,589.77 for 6 stitches, cost that led his wife to avoid ER
Exactly. What the US lacks is actually more liberal market in health. Less regulations and more competition.

When talking about regulations people usually mean regulating pricing and/or service quality but what actually needs to be tackled are the factors that limit competition, like: - process for opening new clinics/hospitals should have little to none restrictions - requirements for doctors (no doctors from outside can work in the US unless they complete $400k degree) - Drugs from outside countries should be allowed to be imported without FDA's approval

and so on

tasubotadas··on Speech and Language Processing
I am glad that they've updated it. The previous edition was hopelessly outdated as most if not all of the SOTA solutions now use deep learning.
tasubotadas··on Chernobyl’s Blown Up Reactor 4 Just Woke Up
>Scientists don’t understand why…

They know exactly why - in the Reuters article they say it's because of the lost moisture from the rain (there is now shelter above the reactor) and that it was expected :D

What a piece of journalistic crap...
