They should, because Civ5 is way better xD

Reading: The Pragmatic Programmer (Andy Hunt & Dave Thomas)

There are podcasts and YouTube channels with great content already available, with videos about specific topics and or libraries.

Read other people’s code.

I would advise you to avoid using chatbots to write code or explain it; programming seems a lot like learning human languages, if you do not exercise it, you will not improve. Read code and read error messages.

Using chatbots to understand concepts can be useful, but be careful, it doesn’t know anything, it just generates text that seems correct, so always check on other sources.

When you feel comfortable in python, learn the basics of a new language. Each language has its own “way of thinking”, and knowing that will make you a better programmer.

And have fun; without it, it is hard to stick to anything.

Yeah, and still, I would prefer to game on Linux, Microsoft’s hostility towards windows users sems to grow each new update.

With the caveat that there is no LLM where the “compression” is lossless on this analogy.

Software funded by public resources should be a benefit available for the public. Is not only transparency and security, it should be owned by the people who paid for it.

Even apps installed outside the Play Store will need to have a “verified developer”, and this change will affect any devices that use Google Play Services, so it will be a problem even to old devices.

Also sound, you hear the splash.

(if that’s intentionally) They are probably testing their capabilities.

Or, for religious/ritual purposes.

Any mineral that you can think of, easier to get in space, close to their home star than here.

If someone has tech to do interstellar trips in a reasonable time, we already lost any war against them.

The good news is, they probably don’t need anything that we have, so the list of reasons to engage in war is kinda limited. Yay!

About communication, they would have an advantage understanding us, we are broadcasting into space for more than a century with radio signals carrying content of many of our languages.

The movie Arrival does an quite OK job showing how could be an effort to bridge the communication gap with aliens (besides the fiction), and is a good movie as well.

What is a skinwalker?

Brazil, does it make any difference?

I’m not an US citizen, never been in the US. But as far as I know, your country never was a real nice place. Slaves, first nations, Mexico, Hawaii, Tuskegee (and Guatemala), Condor Operation, Camboja, Palestine… The list goes on, and on, and on…

Of course I don’t blame the everyday citizen, but your rulers are terrible for the rest of the world, since ever, and the people are blinded to it. And about democracy, the electoral college system is pretty much the opposite of democracy IMHO, and the most powerful force driving the country is not what people needs or want, is money (and capitalism).

(Again, IMHO) The US image outside its borders is not “inspiring”, it is terrifying.

Methane is a powerful greenhouse gas, and it’s the main character of Titan’s atmosphere, and still, Titan is extremely cold. (And Titan is closer to the sun then TNOs)

So I’m inclined to say that greenhouse-effect alone would not be enough to keep TNOs warm like Earth.
