My Phellow Pharo #Programmers who write scientific #software, do have a look at the Units package, which can safely perform mixed-unit computations like the following to obtain the correct result \(63.21 ft\):
\(\texttt{14foot + 15m.}\)
The NASA-Lockheed Mars Climate Orbiter catastrophe could have been avoided, had the probe control software been implemented in Smalltalk.🤣
From ACM - "The Last Solo #Programmers"
@baldur “The only issue I am facing as a professional #art director in games is that I just want them to leave me and my art teams alone so we can make cool art. There is *no problem to be solved here*”.
I don’t think the Art director is looking at this from a business angle. The problem being solved is to reduce the high cost #WhiteCollar workforce and still make a profit.
This has been happening since 2022 when #ChristopherHohn decided SE/SWE cost to much for #Alphabet (#google) and all the SW companies followed.
Why?
Later that year #OpenAI released #ChatGPT.
Here is that article: #programmers / #tech / #software / #AI <https://www.forbes.com/sites/jonathanponciano/2022/11/15/billionaire-hedge-fund-investor-urges-alphabet-to-cut-costs-no-justification-for-salaries-that-are-too-high/>
In a Tuesday letter, U.K. billionaire and Alphabet investor Chris Hohn urged the Google parent’s CEO to “take aggressive action” to cut costs as he criticized the firm’s head count for being “too high.”
Hello everyone 👋🕶️
I’ve been using the Meta Ray-Ban glasses for a while now, and I recently got the Meta x Coperni limited edition, which inspired me to make a video highlighting some of the features available with these glasses.
🎥 Full video: https://youtu.be/DuaNJnkwOg4
📌 This is what I cover in this video:
- Unboxing the Meta x Coperni limited edition
- Specifications
- Meta View app setup
- Capturing videos and images using Meta AI
- Exploring Meta AI features (code explanations, having the AI read a book, and translating text)
- Live translation features
- Playing music, audiobooks, and identifying songs
- Comparing Meta x Coperni vs Meta Transition Lenses
💡 Let me know if you have any specific questions about the Ray-Ban Meta glasses.

#BigTech alternatives are underway. #EU must invest more in development of #EUSoftware and #programmers
Always code as if the guy who ends up maintaining your code will be a violent psychopath who knows where you live.

I shrugged, dismissively, when the Reason #programming language was announced as the new syntactic veneer atop OCaml. OCaml in C/C++/Java/JavaScript syntax—why?
But I, too, had been ensnared by that same comfortable vice grip of "apparent innovation". On many occasions, I had dreamt of new, modernised syntax for Fortran, C, Standard ML, Scheme, and the like. In my dreams, that so-called "new" syntax inexplicably resembles the "old" syntax of Hope/Miranda/Haskell/Agda.
