  • It's not for the common people. It's for companies that dream of workplaces with no people, Facebook which talks to you automatically so you can still be fed ads while your real life friends are asleep

    If it worked, stories like in OP could be true.

  • I have never used COBOL, but it's the language for the system I'm an analyst for, and I don't see a problem with it

  • The difficulty with all satire is those in power or with loud megaphones are doing stuff that was satire ten years ago. The stuff being made up by either side is hard to tell from reality

  • Installing Linux on friend's new PC, which distro should he use?

  • I had to use an AMD provided script to get Mint to work with my ryzen AI 9 370, as the system couldn't drive the built in graphics

    First boot had to happen with the "nomodeset" ( no [graphics] mode set[ting]) or it couldn't do any graphics, the screen went black as soon as it got out of the initial text mode

    So no, Mint isn't great with very new equipment

  • Some commercial, science, and industrial machines require specific versions of windows, which this can imitate. Old MS Windows is of our development and very vulnerable it allowed on the internet. My giant organisation had until recently a 16 bit PC because it carried an ISA card that formatted a particular letter. Management only authorised a replacement (use of current software tools to make the letter, make a data path from the legacy system that collates the letter data to our newer system) when one of the two machines died and couldn't be repaired due to lack of parts

  • I'm brave enough to say it: Linux is good now, and if you want to feel like you actually own your PC, make 2026 the year of Linux on (your) desktop

  • an hypothesis

    I think you mean an ' ypothesis (only vowels use an; consonants use "a"; h is a special case as French and French influenced English drop the h from the start of words). It's polite to show the letters you have dropped with an apostrophe so readers don't take incorrect ideas from one's writing

  • There is some evidence that autism is a combination of hereditary natural variation and diet

    The evidence of diet is many anecdotes that some ancient food diets make autistic children less autistic (moves them closer to neurotypical)

  • It isn't really equivalent. GM by gene editing is precise and quick; GM by selective breeding and deliberate mutation is slow and random

    I wonder if anyone will ever work out what genes make good apples. It would save so much random breeding

  • I have a friend I believe who stank out a part of their school with overdone banana scent

    (I have a friend I don't believe who says he blew out the windows of a school lab by turning on gas taps and lighting a lighter)

  • It's fun in my organisation. We get "Use AI, it's the future, your manager will assess your use of AI" alongside "only use the AI tools on this list" with a list of tools completely useless to my, or my team's possible needs, along with "don't give AI any sensitive information" where everything my team works on is IT systems which makes everything too sensitive to be given to copilot

  • We learnt to titrate in later high school, played with acids and bases and crystallizing crystals in earlier high school

    Sure we learnt to calculate mols of chemicals but we also learnt why — so you can balance an equation, so you have no more acid (for example) than you need.

    I bailed out of chemistry though. I had a bad teacher in year 10 and moved to botany in yr 11 and 12 (working with scientists testing salt tolerance of eucalypts to address dryland salinity) (I went to a school that covered high school and college (years 7 to 12))
