I’m afraid I’m too lazy to look it up for myself. Perhaps I’m not in the lucky 10,000.

I guess it could be a burrito joint in Dotonbori.

- Comment on Study finds AI tools made open source software developers 19 percent slower 4 weeks ago:
Slowing you down is the main benefit!
It helps you to keep more brain time on solving the actual problem, and less on boring syntax crap. Of course, then it gets the syntax crap wrong and you need to waste a lot of time fixing it.

No, Songs In The Key Of Life was Stevie Wonder, not Coldplay.

This is the basic premise of Ancillary Justice, by Ann Leckie. But it’s a lot less nice than that.
- Comment on Most people's earliest memories are at around 3 or 4 years of age, which correlates with the age kids start asking "why" for everything. Kids start asking why when they become self-aware. 5 weeks ago:
Why? Because the sky’s so high. You’ll marry in June/July.
- Comment on It was inevitable 1 month ago:
I kinda agree but probably for opposite reasons. There’s no sliced bread OR butter so it can’t be a sandwich. And I’m fairly sure there’s no actual chocolate in there. Oreos are definitely biscuits tho.
- Comment on Here is the single thing Labour can do to see off Reform and make British politics work 1 month ago:
That’s cool. They tricked a transferable voting system into thinking it was fptp. But we can’t just copy the French, this is England. The racists would never accept it.

Is there an energy company that offers a “non Drax” plan?
- Comment on How not to lose your job to AI 1 month ago:
I think it’s still faster for a lot of things. If you have several different ideas for how to approach a problem the robot can POC them very quickly to help you decide which to use. And while doing that it’ll probably mention something that’ll give you ideas for another couple approaches. So you can come up with an optimal solution in about the same time as it’d take to clack out a single POC by hand.
- Comment on How not to lose your job to AI 1 month ago:
It can complete coding tasks, but not well AND unsupervised. To get it to do something well I need to tell it what it did wrong over 4 or 5 iterations.
- Comment on Why is cottage cheese the only cheese defined by some relationship to a building? 1 month ago:
Don’t look up what that means in Nepali.
- Comment on If a sandwich is defined as any food item between two pieces of bread, then a layer cake is a type of sandwich. 1 month ago:
Once could, if so inclined, put cake between two slices of bread. It’d be hard to argue that’s not a sandwich.

They’re not being judgemental, they pointed out that OP inadvertently let some personal info slip.

It started with a fish
Never thought it would come to this
- Comment on Labour’s Centrism Is a Dead End 2 months ago:
Counterpoint: the press won’t allow a lefty leftleft government to get elected, so Labour see centrist as their ol y route to power. Look at how they stitched up Corbyn.
- Comment on Google confirms more ads on your paid YouTube Premium Lite soon 2 months ago:
That was the reason to use Play Music when it was a thing. Upload all your torrented music and stream it for free.
- Comment on If you're having difficulty figuring out how to pronounce "data," say database. 2 months ago:
There’s no y in data or database. The only source of confusion is that Star Trek character weirdly dipthong-ing his name.
