Didn't they already do a Spider-man movie?
How difficult it is to create an UI framework and stick with it?
2006: If we don't do something about climate change we will have a bad time.
people: yeah, right...
2026: we're having bad time
people: 🤷♂️
This was in USA and Canada. EU laws do not apply there as far as I know.
I saw it and it's just O Brother, Where Art Thou? but set in bronze age. They even copied the cyclops. And the songs are not as good.
Yes, degree inflation is nothing new. I remember my uncle telling me how difficult his high school graduation exams were and how easy they got later.
We already had private school giving diplomas to politicians without attending any classes (I know about such instances in Spain and Poland). With AI getting some type of a degree will be just a formality for most people. No idea if it's an issue or not. If employers want to use degree as a proof for anything they will have to verify which ones mean something. If they don't care then I guess no one will.
Xorg servers starting from version 1.7 have a feature called "multi-pointer". Basically it allows to have multiple mouse cursors (each with its own keyboard focus) on the screen and control them with separate physical input devices
1.7 was released in 2009.
So the problem here is degree inflation. 20 years ago when I was getting my first master's degree it was a 5 years of in person classes. In the meantime degrees became required for lots of positions. Teachers need to get additional degrees to get promotions, you need a degree to apply for a job in the public sector and so on. So what used to be a proof of your qualifications became just a certificate you need to get. Now I'm getting my second master's degree and it's a year of online classes, without any in person evaluation. We will either start distinguishing between bullshit degrees from online universities and real ones or all of them will lose any value.
How are you going to make money doing that?
I don't see those. For me I only ever get upvotes.
Makes you think, right? Almost as if the narrative about how dystopian chat control is and how evil EU is doesn't really add up and it's just people repeating some bullshit they read on a blog.
