to be fair, mirrors are pretty crazy and don’t typically appear as clearly in nature with the exception of water.

Whether a dog recognizes its reflection or not doesn’t really rule out that they’re not self aware

not if you had one of those setups where you can burn right from a source CD to multiple target blanks

This is the old is fetus life.

Yeah, and the problem there is that logic and science won’t change someone’s mind about it. It’s subjective from their perspective.

I’ve seen pro-life folks argue that but they frame it like… “the law is fine and it’s a failure of the doctors not being willing to understand the law which led to deaths” and they’ll also follow that up by saying that even if women die, they’re saving more lives by preventing abortions so it’s a net positive.

I find it difficult to argue against that perspective. That is, I disagree with them but also it’s hard to argue when they frame abortions as basically murder.

the term normally refers to a developer that can be productive in every layer required for a typical application to work.

They can do the front end design/styling/implementation and are familiar with front end languages and frameworks

They can do the backend API design and are familiar with the typical backend languages and patterns.

They can do the database table design, write and optimize queries.

They can handle the ci/cd scripting that handles building and deploying the application

They can design and write the automation tests and are familiar with the libraries used for that.

And a bunch of other crap like load testing or familiarity with cloud services.

The latest thing added to the list is AI model creation which is a nightmare… but, I can’t say no 🤷‍♂️

could it be possible that these bikes can go faster, and thus are louder, than the cars and trucks can go within city streets in the Netherlands?

to be fair, the emulation on these devices is significantly more accurate, right?

The thing that’s missing here is context. It’s hard to care about a random doctor prescribing an extra $200 for a patient that is taken out of the tens of billions of dollars of profit a year that health insurance companies make.

Like, this car seat anecdote costs as much as an hour meeting of a few of their higher paid employees.

Does that really matter? Should it matter?
