You claim I'm just spouting opinions, yet you seem to have miss headlines last year about AI authors/fathers walking out the door claiming just the same... But to you, they're just spouting their own worthless opinion as well.

Please spend a bit of time researching the subject before posting anything here.

It doesn't make a difference, the profitability is way overvalued, potential customer companies are firing and closing all over the world, while AI debt is growing in billions (visualize curves going in opposite directions). They'll never be able to repay them on time. Plus, these investments are based on a promise they'll never uphold since the LLMs are a technological dead end for their ambitions.

Yes, there's a bubble and we've known for a while now, thank you.

Jesters would say it's because author's a fan of labradors. (source: he's my neighbour)

25 years of Python behind me, please let me tell you that hopefully you're wrong : we don't "need" uv :)

1°) Gesture navigation is entirely optional.

2°) Android followed UX/UI 101 about where to put frequently used buttons: where you can reach them with your thumb. Basic design, right ? Apple iOS: the close/back button is usually on the top left corner, unreachable by right-handed users that only constitutes 90% of people, number about the same in all countries and cultures. That's only one example, but that bag where it comes from is deep.

You should take a few steps back before displaying publicly polarizing opinions and maybe nuance your words a bit.

Extracting log entries from large files for troubleshooting, mass editing, mass formatting... This missing feature is the only reason I wasn't able to get far with the vim family: I didn't find a close enough way to do the same tasks as efficiently.

I'm so happy to read this, I've been thinking about this question for a while now, and I think it would help a lot:

Big companies where revenues are based on marketing would collapse, the market fragments (which is good), smaller companies are created instead, better diversity of local products and services. Better wealth distribution. More money for the government, hopefully better public services.

With less flashy products and services, people have a better purchasing power, even considering they'll have to pay for services they use, like reviews. Review companies would need strict controls to be put in place against corruption.

It would probably also change a lot of nonsensical landscapes (ex: sports)

Advertising is evil.

That makes that the best thing, when you're into computing like computational geometry (and not hyped by the AI bubble)

just tested it against the 10000 first prime numbers in Sublime Text : 2462 prime numbers have a direct neighbour with the same last digit. That's nearly a quarter of them... Edit: by taking into account sequences with 3 identical digits (110 occurrences), it's even more.
