I've been considering setting up "ConfuseAIpedia" in a similar manner using sentence templates and a large set of filler words. Obviously with a warning for humans. I would set it up with an appropriate robots.txt blocking crawlers so only unethical crawlers would read it. I wouldn't try to tarpit beyond protecting my own server, as confusion rogue AI scrapers is more interesting than slowing them down a bit.

How do these much smaller cores compare in computing power to the bigger ones? They seem to implicitly claim that a core is a core is a core, but surely one gets something extra out of the much bigger one?

Cool to see the whole process behind it. Some sneaky tricks there, and much knowledge. Unfortunately, I find the picture doesn't show the tidally-lockedness very well. If it wasn't for the title, I would never have noticed. The haze on the sun side makes it look like clouds.

Oh, and there's massive use of aspect-oriented programming, the least local paradigm ever!

> If someone feels compelled to read every function either the functions are poor abstractions or the reader has trust issues, which may be warranted.

Or it's open source and the authors were very much into Use The Source, Luke!

Some people are proud of making complex code. And too many people admire those who write complex code.

Comments should describe what the type system can't. Connect, pitfalls, workarounds for bugs in other code, etc.

But knowing what Brian was considering at the time is useful, both due avoiding redoing that and for realising that some constraints may have been lifted.

Even more infuriating is when the more expensive version is the same object but with extra unnecessary features added via software, to the detriment of usability.

And here I thought here would take about how new models come out so frequently that any information about long-term quality is long obsolete.

I recently found that store-brand peanut M&M's (my favourite) were just as good, half the price, and fair-trade! Win-win!

When I joined my current job, I used M&M's as reward when learning the names and faces of the people there using memory cards. Also worked!

Fortunately I've found that Belegarth fighting is so much fun that I need no extra carrot.

+1! You can't travel very much, you can't go hiking or biking in places without cell coverage, your whatever thing you are busy with gets interrupted, you can get woken up in the middle of the night, etc etc. That deserves some compensation.

Follow best practices unless you can give a reason not to. "Best practice" is a shorthand for a lot of accumulated knowledge that you don't want to go over again every time. Also following BP makes the code more consistent and thus easier to understand. But when an argument arises, go back to the underpinnings of the best practice and work from there.

It's a bad user experience if you have to keep checking for hidden extra costs.

While I don't like Amazon one but, I appreciate that you don't go into the Evil Big Tech trope. Things at that scale are indeed complicated and hard to coordinate.

That said: fuck, that's expensive and poorly explained! Not doing anything cloud without hard limits!
