I read a lot of tech bros saying what they did is easy because they used (illegally?) the chatgpt API for part of their model training. But it seems this kind of performance actually means better engineering, doesn’t it?
I’m glad a different country is able to challenge top USA tech, but I wish EU could do it together too. For now it seems we’re mostly able to duplicate American products with added GDPR compliance.

It was easy enough to introduce Git with a self hosted Gitea at my work place 4 years ago. I see Codeberg is based on a fork of Gitea called Forgejo, so I guess it is also good.

Tell that to OP, I’m providing the context for their post that I didn’t have.

Give me a source you prefer, I will be happy to swap it. The first results I found was this and Forbes and I was expecting this reaction for Forbes.

When you’re deep into sweet sleep and the alarm wakes you up to go to work.

I think I know why.

I think it’s probably because it is informal or maybe ambiguous.

I had a Pycharm linter with “inconsiderate writing list” flag my use of “bi” as inappropriate, recommending to use “bisexual” instead. In my data job, BI, means business intelligence, it’s everywhere.

Gosh, the money to join the USB-C standard should go into RHS instead!

It’s also important to note that you might come out ahead in learning those abstract concepts using a harder language.

I agree that you will learn more abstract concepts with more low level languages, but they are often not necessary. See Scala, beautiful language, lot’s of fancy subtle computer science concepts, and a plummeting popularity since its main popularizer, Apache Spark, implemented a Python API.

Development environment is a mess, but given its popularity, it’s not difficult to find an up to date tutorial. Then it is the easiest I think, you will be able to try programming basics and get a minimum viable product (small web app, small analytics…) easlier than with any other language.

Some people think that because Python is the easiest language to learn, it’s going to be easy to learn programming with Python. But learning programming is still very hard, so many abstract concepts to grasp. Python just makes it a tiny less hard, almost insignificantly now that we can use an LLM to learn the syntax faster than than ever.

For mage in pain:

I’m glad that there’s no micro transactions nor loot boxes.

Not even to spend good times with friends?

How do you agree on a meeting time with a group of people who all live in different places of your country?

That’s a good idea! Instead of discrete timezones, let’s have continuous timezones!
