  • Most of the time you can kick a computer in anger without consequences and that's enough for me. Can't do it with my colleagues without at minimum having to talk with HR. And sometimes it even solves the issue (maybe helps with humans too, but can't legally try it)

  • Do you like (AI) clocks?

  • When I tried it Kimi K2 was surprisingly consistent and not even as bad as the others. Occasionally the numbers or hands (I couldn't really tell which) were possitioned a bit off, for example the seconds hand will appear to be horizontal but the 9 or 3 will be slightly below or slightly above the hand. But whoever can center a div may throw the first stone, and it's not going to be me for sure

  • Well, in this case a and b are only aliases of table names, and it is assumed that tables were already "defined", i.e. they already exist. And aliases in my opinion are meant to shorten long table names, or give a name that will be more appropriate in the context of the query, considering more than tables names can be aliased, at least that's how I'm using them. But they still have to be descriptive enough so it's clear what kind of data we are working with without the need to look for what they are actually aliasing in advance. In your example if the table was named users_who_won_the_company_lottery (intentionally bad name) then aliasing it as users or even as winners will be nice, even necessary, and you do not have to ask "What the fuck is winners?

    For me, although I have seen a lot of people do this in SQL in real scenarios, using a and b in SQL is not a bad practice, it's a terrible practice. Feels like using them in function declarations in other programming languages, like doing a function declaration in C, at the top of the file like that:

     c
        
int some_func(char a, bool b, char *c);

    And letting whoever has to read the code after you go look at the definition and figure out by themselves what any of that is supposed to mean.

    Or naming your variables a, b, c, etc.

    Aliases are meant to improve readability imo, not worsen it.

  • And for me right now that show is Farscape. I don't know if you can call it niche, but it certainly is not very well known where I live. And this show is frelling good. I love it! I love the story, I love the actors, I love all the costumes and puppets, the sets, the effects. It is better than most of the dren studios nowadays produce

  • Some day someone with a high military rank, in one of the nuclear armed countries (probably the US), will ask an AI play a song from youtube. Then an hour later the world will be in ashes. That's how the "Judgement day" is going to happen imo. Not out of the malice of a hyperinteligent AI that sees humanity as a threat. Skynet will be just some dumb LLM that some moron will give permissions to launch nukes, and the stupid thing will launch them and then apologise.

  • Easy way to remember the OSI model

  • Yes, except if you are in my University, where professors are fossils and knowing OSI is required to pass the CN exam.

  • I HATE email

    Jump

  • That is why I have:

    • a few emails for registering wherever I should be able to do stuff without an account, but for some reason can't. One of them is a gmail for every place that allows to log in with google.
    • one email that I use for account, where I actually may give a shit about the the emails I may recieve from the services I registered/subscribed for.
    • one email used exclusively for e-mailing. No accounts, no subscriptions.

  • Well, not half. Just a tiny amount, some would say that just 1% is enough.
