One thing I can say about the Wolfram language is that is actually Lisp with syntax that looks weird at first sight.
However when you look at rule processing, it's like pattern matching on steroids that I haven't seen in lisp world. It looks quite powerful and applies throughout the language (eg the "Query" book).
Too bad the whole language is closed and so heavily licensed .
The FBI tracks active shooting cases-where individuals attempt to kill people in public places, excluding those tied to robberies or gang violence. This study is the first to systematically compare how uniformed police and civilians with concealed handgun permits perform in stopping these attacks. Civilians with permits stopped the attacks more frequently and faced a lower risk of being killed or injured than police. Officers who intervened during the attacks were far more likely to be killed or injured than those who apprehended the attackers later.
1. If you can easily write boring code with LLM, you might not have the incentive to refactor it.
2. If you let someone else solve your problems, and you don't reflect in the solution, you won't learn.
3. I rarely read the fine print, but are all LLM IDEs really the same when it comes to intellectual property of the code? Or the responsibily of bad code?
I think the problem that people don't see anymore is using tests themselves. A clever idea is worth more than a single tick in the correct checkbox. This applies to maths as well. Tests are faster to check and, supposedly, objective, but a viva voce exam is still superior imho.
I don't understand what's this about actually. You can't just go around accusing people of being rapists without evidence. And if there's evidence, go to the police. What's so special about the hacker community to especially have "problems" in this area?
Also, he quotes some US studies about 1% of rapist being convicted IN THE US and then argues about some even in Berlin. Justice system isn't the same worldwide and I guess its effectiveness would vary.
Such presupposed accusations are very bad for the community as a whole. And sometimes, even after a court verdict, they are still false, viz the tragically comic trial of card. George Pell (https://www.theguardian.com/australia-news/2019/feb/26/rise-...).
