Exactly. Studying with people who understood less but could remember the magic words to ace tests was an exercise in frustration

Or maybe a freshman class with hundreds of students should be split into more classes with more emphasis on actually learning

College courses have long been structured to incentivize rote memorization and regurgitation over actual critical thinking and understanding. When i was in college the "honors" students literally had filling cabinets with a decade of old tests for every class in their dormatory. I'll admit llms have probably made it even worse, but the slide of colleges into worthless degree mills has been inexorably progressing for like 40 years at this point.

I'm not totally sure if this is accurate but it sounds like you're wanting to learn front end dev basics?

If so, MDN might be a reasonable place to start. https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Learn_web_development

It's in the tab overview menu https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/tab-overview-menu

I think acknowledging that there may be things we don't know and if you're trying not to be tracked not carrying a phone is probably smart makes sense. The people making these sweeping assertions about how phones work in general with no evidence not so much.

Would you mind sharing why you think that?

Couldn't you just, like, turn it off?

Business leadership is a club with a specific culture. To be in the club you have you drink the cool aid, so unfortunately most of them have the same mentality

Fish and Kate hell yeah 🤜 🤛

so how is this not the default case in Windows?

It actually is now

Fair. I just think is prudent to draw a line between natural difficulty and cultural resistance to change.

Moreover, codebase in pure funcional languages is hard to understand and maintain, that’s why they are rarely used in production.

This is incorrect. They are rarely used because procedural languages have momentum. It's way more likely you'll get Joe Codemonkey to learn and be productive quickly with functional features added to a procedural language than to learn and be productive quickly with an entirely different paradigm. So that's what happens.

Things like medical billing where the vast majority of the profession exists because we've created a labyrinth to be navigated that doesn't need to exist.

Or, we could transition away from people doing made up jobs that don't need to exist to doing things that actually need to get done

My first thought would be that it’s the same as using any other browser, so not a great way to be private. Am I wrong?

It is exactly the same. You can even open the RSS files in your browser directly. They're just XML files served via http(s)

Bet it'll be grok

Direct input existed before xinput and works just fine

How is this relevant

What anticompetitive practices? This normally refers to things like selling at a loss long enough to destroy fledgling competition and the like. As far as I'm aware, steam just... provides good services that other stores don't?
