That doesn't matter. For every sarcastic comment online, there will be a certain percentage of people that misses the joke and takes it seriously. Over time, these people accumulate and become a real cultural/political force.

The Trump administration is basically entirely made up of these groups. Read through this list and you'll probably find a conspiracy theory you've personally made a sarcastic joke about at some point in your internet life.

I fully support eating Nazis.

I wouldn't want to work with one though.

The study is about the impact AI use has on learning. Their experiment seems to test just that, unlike what you’re describing.

The title is literally "How AI assistance impacts the formation of coding skills". Memorizing APIs isn't what most people would consiser a "coding skill".

Debugging, systems design, optimization, research and evaluation, etc are what actually make someone a useful engineer, and are the skills a person develops as they go from junior to senior. Even domain knowledge (like knowing a lot about farming if you're working on farming software) is more useful than memorizing the API of any framework. The only thing memorization does is it saves you a few minutes from having to read some docs, but that's minimal impact, and it's something you pick up normally throughout the course of working on a project anyways. When you finish that project, you might never use that API again, or if you do it might have changed completely when a new version is released.

remembering what you did an hour ago seems like a real world problem to me.

Sure, humans have shitty memory, but that has nothing to do with AI code assistance. There are plenty of non-AI coding assistants that help people with this (like Intellisense/LSP auto complete, which has been around for decades)

It’s literally just a tool for large companies to stifle competition.

This is obviously wrong, but reveals the direction a conversation with you would take. No thanks.

Have a nice day.

Loads for me without a paywall with javascript disabled. If you have uBlock Origin, you can disable it on the current page with one click.

Wdym? That's a parser implementation detail. Even if the parser you're using needs to load the whole file into memory, it's trivial to write your own parser that reads those entries one row at a time. You could even add random access if you get creative.

That's one of the benefits of JSON: it is dead simple to parse.

They add that “any discussion of the potential risks” to a child’s health “must also be balanced against the potential benefits” that come from “collective social capital” of such a union.

I wonder if they're also weighing the societal costs of having potentially serious birth defects in 10-15% of the population?

Don't worry about the story. They're all pretty much disconnected, and it's better to think of them as standalone stories with a shared (but ultimately inconsequential) universe.

If you haven't played the RE 2 remake, start there. It's IMO the best resident evil game of all time. I have a ton of nostalgia for OG RE1, but this remake is spectacular.

I beat both 7 and 8 but forgot the story, so there ya go. IIRC, 8 is a sequel to 7, with the same main character, so it might be smart to play 7 first. Both are great, but it'll take a bit to get settled in with the first person view.

I've seen this joke done hundreds of times on TV and in movies growing up, but never experienced it myself. I have pretty much always lived in the suburbs in homes with their own water heaters, yet I still have yet to experience this phenomenon.

I don't doubt that it's possible, but the conditions to "trigger" it are probably very specific to regions where film makers and comic artists live.

some good old fashioned free market competition

This kills the billionare

Lol I had the same procedure and sat in my car after calling someone to come pick me up, but they took too long and I decided to just drive myself anyways. I couldn't read signs, but traffic lights and other cars were visible enough. I bet there are a lot of old people on the road driving around regularly with eyesight that bad or worse.
