I mean they're exclusively writing tools for power users for eventual implementation to mainline as they develop and test simplification that doesn't alienate the power user.... So managers can't really say they're doing anything bad or dumb ever because it's power user features then porting.

I was a long distance runner, qualified to go to state finals even. I can never run safely in my life though, because I tore a tendon in a cross country race, and even though it's been repaired surgically if I try again it will tear again.

There are only a few safe types of shoes I can wear to reduce injury risk, one of those being a Nike shoe. Walkers tolerated as a sign always stings.

I even remember in econ101 my professor brought up the basic analysis, then brought up a really cool example of this where the minimum wage changed in one state but not another in two towns right on the border. It was the perfect econ experiment to prove how supply and demand would cause inflation.

The next 5 years saw no change despite a 2 dollar an hour increase on one side only - the two towns maintained equal pricing, and no increase to inflation or pricing compared to the typical rate.

My favorite part was that he managed to be excited about it properly, because it was and is cool science to him when usually economics is trying to analyze how changes happened with way too many variables.

In Wikipedias case, you just fail to make an edit/new post. So you can verify if Ai can make a usable post up to standard with people who can verify but not make, hopefully saving enough time and bulk to help that group learn to make properly, as well as leave the ones Ai will fuck up to people who can do it right.

I mean, kind of? There are system traces of what the squirrels ate that build up, causing weird issues with other software over time. It's why restarting your computer fixes so many software errors. Part of the close process of the computer is cleaning up most of the squirrel poops.
