Just tell him respectfully, sometime.
As a parent, myself:
That sounds entirely reasonable.
The answer is 2.
Cling to known humans who write their own code.
Snake oil salesmen always encourage the public to bet against the experts, with predictable results.
Someday ethically sourced AI can be used responsibly by trustworthy coders.
But the key is choosing to collaborate with trustworthy coders.
I’m constantly amazed that this is a hard subject for people. As the golden rule says:
“I’m not going to reach into your pants, without an invitation. And I prefer no one reach into my pants, because we barely know each-other. Whatever someone tells me is in their pants, I’ll take their word for it, as long as they haven’t flashed me in public. Also, shitting in practically transparent stalls is awful for everyone, and showering with strangers sucks. Let’s all just do less of both.”
There’s been some great ideas here, but I like yours the best.
Bill Burr complaining about being forced to be the pope would be amazing.
“I’m not going to lead mass. Leading mass is Charlie Work!”
Does anyone have any clue?
My best guess would be some relatively passive notification stealing focus.
As reddeadhead mentioned, there’s specific “don’t steal focus” settings. I’ve had good luck with them.
Great analogy.
I think it’s fair to tweak it and leave that second library with full accountability for the lack of desirability.
Domain names don’t start out undesirable, they build their reputation from the content and users.
So it’s like building a second library in a perfectly nice spot, and having that library attract people who dump pollution into the surrounding area, making it undesirable.
I don’t know enough about it to confidently say they’re going to lose all their money
It happened to my relative. They didn’t lose everything, but they lost enough that they’re shopping for a mobile home for retirement, when they previously could have bought a small house.
Plausible explanation.
I used to always use Minecraft for this. Sure, they can’t do everything immediately, but I put the game on peaceful and let them explore at their own pace.
I say “used to” because Luanti (formerly MineTest, an open source Minecraft Clone*) is finished and free.
(Okay, Luanti is a lot more than a Minecraft clone. But for this discussion that’s all one needs to know.)
Nice. Minecraft used to be my go to answer for a first WASD game, too.
Lately, I recommend Mineclonia on Luanti, because it’s free and has stronger optimizations supporting weak laptops and big multiplayer servers. (It’s a popular Free Open Source Minecraft Clone).
This was really helpful. Thank you.
I remember those days, as well!
I bought a “fixer-upper” recently, so I fill most days off with minor home repair projects. I’m using it as an excuse to build a decent little project workbench, though.
Just so you know, this isn’t Reddit. You’ve just been blocked by everyone reading along here.
If you start to feel like no one replies here, it’s actually you, in this case. It could help to try again with a new account.
Sure some people might say hi back but that doesn’t mean they’re a friend.
True. But I’ve had some great friendships grow after years of just “hi” in passing. We weren’t friends yet, but we were destined to become friends.
I’m with you.
Thankfully, corporate bullahit isn’t the only way to create a discovery algorithm.
I expect that we will have a diverse set of discovery algorithms available to opt into here, in a few years.
Uh… So no gift. Got it.
