Thanks for the memories!

Damn it. What's the first one again? I instantly remember the feeling playing this game, but I can't remember...

Can you elaborate on the last sentence a bit from a technical perspective? I'm not using code myself to the extent that I could really judge between LLM-generated code being good or just-works. I can just imagine compiler output being strictly deterministic, while LLM-code, due to the way a LLM works in principle, should be more ...unstructured?

This is just some other AI scam, right? RIGHT?

I used a mixture of baking soda+super glue which you can apply using a small spatula. This would require sanding afterwards of course and ideally painting, but it worked for me.

Neural implants? Only this time they're really going to fry your brain.

I would instantly buy your book!

But isn't that well known, even from school days? If you've ever explained something to someone you've recognized that by doing that you're forced into overthinking the context, diving deeper into the subject.

Great, like it! It follows one of my own design rules at home - if you can't hide it, promote it!

It's good to blend asphalt with this nasty plastic. Roads are known to not be exposed to any sort of high mechanical loads, so no risk of constantly adding micro plastic to the environment.

That's the main reason, Linux is still not as widespread as Windows - marketing. If you'd ship all of the sold PCs with a pre-installed Linux, nobody would give a shit.

And why would they? The vast majority of ALL computer users just use functions (email, office, browsing) instead of programs. Oh, I know, I know. If you ask, you always hear Word, Excel, Outlook. But to me that are just synonyms for the tedious everyday tasks most users perform. And if you'd stop training people to repeat tasks and klick buttons and instead train them to understand what they're actually doing ... sigh

Hmm, not sure about that. Waiting for my TV to boot or update or connecting to Wi-Fi or my m music streaming app to 'think' for two minutes until it works at all is tedious. Don't get me wrong - it's still net positive. But I would instantly choose any option that offers less features if it would give me back this cosy feeling, that I'm the customer and not the product. Don't want to go into details here but it feels at certain edges that some of these integrated functionalities have simply not been tested for an actual user, but simply to offer ... more.

Writing that, it also could just be age bias. :-p
