Programmer: "What is this slop that I found in your code?"

AI: "I LEARNED IT FROM YOU, DAD!"


This is ridiculous click-bait, and it wouldn't surprise me if the main point was to just come up with a headline that would go viral and drive people to their website which conveniently has an option to donate to their "legal fund".

I mean, come on. Do I like that they are making use of browser fingerprinting? Not really. But to make it sound like they are "illegally" scanning my computer is ridiculous.


Does this mean my prime virtual real estate next door to Snoop Dogg's house isn't going to work as my retirement plan anymore?


Where "many cases" all involve a team of 2 to 5 people working together in the same room and never bringing work home.

<swoon> You're like a real life Liam Neeson.


A few people have touched on it here, but I'll add my voice. I firmly believe that there are programmers who are better described as a "1 vs. 0" programmer. Some programmers have a creative talent in them that leads them to create elegant solutions that literally a team of 50 average programmers would not.


All you have to do is look at someone like LeBron. He single-handedly makes a team a championship contender.


I completely understand that you need to start with epub books. But do you have longer term plans to partner with the proprietary ebook providers? There are a lot of older Kindle eBooks without audio versions that I would love to listen to during my commute.


We do! Currently we are working with web serial authors to help create narration for their works. Support for azw, mobi formats are coming soon. There is a newsletter box near the bottom. If you subscribe, we will let you know once we launch support for those formats.


Hmm...he was wrong while not being wrong.


shows how difficult it is to predict technology adoption
