I've been maintaining a Rails app for ~10 years. It has very specific business logic for on-site multi-day course registrations. DDD style like I learned at 37signals. For 10 years, I configured each course in the Rails console. It was never worth it to build out the configurator UI. This year, I just talked to AI to do it. And the payoff from the carefully written model is really amazing. The AI was completely speaking the language of the domain and even raising meaningful pricing/structural questions about how the packages are set up this year vs previous years. Sharing this example because… Related

Shocking news that Counter Terrorism Police are investigating a credible, serious threat targeted at an Islamic event in Suffolk. Thanks to the quick action taken by police and the organisers, nobody was hurt. My message is clear: I will not tolerate any attacks on our Muslim communities, or any form of anti-Muslim hatred.

Their words
Do you want technological supremacy and radical breakthroughs? Well, yes. If you do, then you have to tolerate that there are going to be some people who are just going to be uncomfortably rich, like in the United States. You can’t say that you detest the financial system for its greed, but then not accept the fact that it is what fuels innovation, right?

just gonna put this out there in case any Godot contributors see this! I know it's not a high priority issue, but I use Wayland on Linux and the latest Godot 4.5 beta spams an error message in the console constantly, which is really very annoying. Would *really* love it if somebody could fix this for the Godot 4.5 release, or even just comment out the specific line that's outputting this message. It's line 1052 in display_server_wayland.cpp, I'm guessing! Linux Related

What is a korrent?
A korrent is a belief a person has stated in their own words: one
sentence stating the claim, backed by a quote and a source, kept at
korrents.com .
Under a name here, the quoted block is what they actually said.
The korrent beneath it is the claim those words support, in
korrents' wording — tap it to see the record, its source, and who
else holds it.
Nobody here wrote their own korrents. They are compiled from public
statements, and a person can change their mind, which is recorded too.

About the English under a post
Some people here publish in a language other than English. Where they
do, this site shows a machine translation beneath the post, in
this typeface — the site's own, not theirs.
The post itself is never changed, moved or hidden: what is set in the
serif above is exactly what the person published, and it is what to
quote them on. A translation can be wrong in ways that matter,
especially about tone.
Only the post's own words are translated. A quoted post, a linked
article and a belief on korrents.com
are left in their original language.
