It takes forever to compile, the locally hosted solution links to the online one at https://kan.bn and you've got to spend half a day to figure out how to truly self host
Bad UX... "chat with thousands of filings" but right after: pick a ticker to start. Sure, click the Chat tab instead. Type a query. Roadblock: you have to log in first. After login, boom query wiped. I'm sure people won't use it for the UX, but UX matters...
This approach allows for better accuracy per response since the context is shorter and more precise. "Search and analyze" was the messaging but I get your point. Thanks !
Mostly because the richest people keep stealing money through lobbying for tax cuts.
And its' happening right now. House passed a 900b dollar cut to Medicaid to fund the latest cuts. If you want to pay off deficits you need your biggest contributors to pay their share. But no one who harps about the deficit seems to want to talk about that.
For real, CnC Generals was the game that has taught me the most about the frivolity of war: there are no winners, both sides lose, it's just a grand burning of resources... for nothing.
You build a wonderful base and war machine, only to watch it burn.
If this was "required playing" to all kids, I would be greatly surprised if war would still be a thing... it basically mocks war. In the most fun way possible!
Look up Jeffrey Sachs' address to EU Parliament, if you are unsure about the real geopolitics of this century... you won't find it in US media.
An essay on why visual programming is way too tainted by text... ironically, in 5000 words.
Good points made, but some missed: the visual cortex is easy to overload. Maybe its our whole desktop environment and window paradigm that needs an overhaul. Or maybe text isn't that bad.
But the point is made. I think the real problem is that the kind of people have have, up to now, been able to create software, have been stuck in a certain mindset. That seems to have changed, so, watch this space, I guess?
Maybe a hint for a new form is in the recursive nature of software: Code and data mimic CPU and RAM, instruction and parameter, and compute cluster and storage cluster... I made a very unconventional IDE that played with this, that made sense to me, in DOS. Maybe its time to revisit it...
Programmable computers will accept any amount of complexity you throw at them. Therein lies the problem. The challenge is not packing more complexity, the challenge is getting rid of all but inessential complexity.
Every silver bullet is seeking a way to pack in more complexity. Yet old hands have been warning for several decades. The trick is to keep it to a minimum, and well confined.
That takes a lot of thinking, a lot of learning, a lot of communication. It takes effort to distill all the apparent complexity into what is essential and what is not. Seeking ways to avoid this and just packing all the complexity inside the computer is always going to be a one way route into systems that cannot be maintained, will degrade their performance over time, will accumulate vulnerabilities, etc.
Amen on both. The rest is just noise. Brackets are still a disaster though... I do love the fact that you don't have to close HTML tags. Making out-dentation close all brackets in order would be great...
