America’s housing problems are also Canada’s and Australia’s and New Zealand’s and the UK’s… No analysis of this issue is complete without acknowledging the worldwide impact. To me it looks like an asset inflation bubble of epic proportions.

It’s kind of lying. I’ve managed to coax copilot in Excel to apply changes like column heading format, deleting columns, etc. I think it can make very simple changes that don’t require it to interpret too much of what you’re telling it.

My metric for LLMs is how much I like the #fsharp code they write.

Several YouTubers I trust are sponsored by them, but none of them are journalists. Could this be story-worthy for you to cover? If you shed more light on the problems with Ground News, maybe they’ll do better. Or maybe I’m overly optimistic, but is it worth a shot?

OCaml was chosen for its strong type system and pattern matching features. This "bootstrap" compiler was used to create the first self-hosting Rust compiler.

I’ll take Fantomas and Prettier over StyleCop any day. I can’t figure out how to extend the metaphor though.

“With HKTs, error messages often become abstract and difficult to understand. A type mismatch deep in a generic abstraction might surface as an incomprehensible error about type constructors not unifying, leaving developers puzzled about what went wrong in their concrete code.”

Or everyone can turn off their Teams notifications unless they are an on-call DRI for that particular week. Notifications are hell on our nervous systems.
