kind of reminds me of this: I want to build a teleport. it should look like old time phone booth, have a screen with a world map on it where I can chose the destination, and a big button with letters TELEPORT on it. when the button is pressed user is instantly transported to the desired destination.

the teleport mechanism is built in into the base of the booth, so it does not affect overall design.

absolutely does! for a new language that no one has heard of, it is essential that examples make at least a parallel with other languages. providing examples for mundane things is very useful to build the understanding with the reader who hasn't been writing a paper on OM language.

how does that work for you when working on a massive established codebase, with hundreds of engineers committing daily? do you still keep track of everything in your head? do you carve your sandbox and only work within it? I have seen way worse code from actual engineers, than from LLMs (especially lately).

Or nothing. Literally! No GOP representative will dare go against the Trump, or else they will be primaryied. The law only applies if there are consequences, and in this case there aren't consequences. If you don't realize this is how US operates, you are living in some la-la land like the democrats that insist on decorum, norms and such other BS.

So ChatGPT turned AGI and found a way to blackmail all of the ones that were agains it (them?) and blackmailed them to leave. For some reason I'm thinking of a movie Demon Seed... :P

Well you would be surprised. I had to explain to several people why it is important to align numbers to the right, and why ordering of the columns can't be done unless you understand how customer works.

I shared his original article with bunch of UX people and most of them had said they learned a lot from it.

Little more than 12 months. Trump wins elections. Starts pushing the constitution to the edge. He leave NATO, and Russia, takes over Ukraine. While at it, Lithuania and Estonia are annexed into new Russian union. After TSMC is relocated to India and remains burned to the ground, Xi swoops in and takes over Taiwan. Nobody cares in the US. They are mostly worried about Pan Arabic Accord that unites Middle East and goes after Israel. In 2028 liberals go into streets to protest something or other... Trump declares martial law just before elections. He continues to be president because it is unsafe to hold elections. Constitution does not cover this case, so everyone scratches their head and looks to courts to decide. In the meantime, Ivanka is named successor. Courts try to wrap their head around that as well. By this time, Trump already expanded the court to 13... AI becomes self aware and decides enough is enough.
