Samsung is from South Korea, and their flagships are on par with iPhones.

The statement on NATO expansion is a russian propaganda. Russia starts wars because it's evil. See video covering this topic: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=egu_w9F2NOY

Many companies chose cheap coders over good coders, even without AI. Companies I heard of have pretty bad code bases, and they don't use AI for software development. Even my company preferred cheap coders and fast development, and the code base from that time is terrible, because our management didn't know what good code is and why it's important. For such companies, AI can make development even faster, and I doubt code quality will suffer.

It depends. AI can help writing good code. Or it can write bad code. It depends on the developer's goals.

Maybe it's because the authors gathered research papers on all types of electric toothbrushes?

In my experience, the difference between manual and electric toothbrushes is huge. I'm no longer nervous about visiting my dentist.

It's not a comics, it's a Soviet type propaganda.

After going with a sonic toothbrush, I felt my teeth were actually clean. Much cleaner than before.

By saying "boilerplate", I mean constructors, simple methods and even small classes that have some "standard" implementation. Copilot easily writes simple constructors, class initialization and destruction. It can suggest small method implementation, right after I added its declaration to related interface. Anything, that can be done almost without thinking of how to do it because there are standard practices, is handled by Copilot. It's not perfect, it can write a whole method at a time, or only line by line, or refuse to suggest any code. But it often writes valid code.

Copilot shines where snippets/templates don't work or make no sense. It can write constructors, simple methods, and even simple classes if something similar is found in the solution.

GitHub Copilot became my daily helper at work. While I'm not 100% satisfied with its code quality, I must admit it's very handy at writing boilerplate code. A few days ago, I had to write code without having internet access, and it was so disappointing to write boilerplate code by hand. It's an easy task, but it's time-consuming and unpleasant.

Finally, AeroPress made of glass and metal, came out. Its double-walled design should reduce heat loss.

Price: $149,95.

Was introduced on Williams Sonoma first

 

I've been using James Hoffman's recipe since I bought AeroPress, and I was pretty satisfied. While being simple, it produced rich, balanced cups of coffee for both light and medium roasts. I was happy with it. But then I started noticing that some light-roasted coffee was too bitter. It rarely happened, but when it did, it wasn't possible to get rid of that excessive bitterness. When I tried to increase the grind size, I got watery, but still too bitter coffee. At first, I thought there was something wrong with the coffee beans, but then I thought, maybe immersion brewing was just not suitable for them. So, I decided to find another recipe.

I wanted to try a hybrid recipe containing a percolation phase, as I believed it could produce more balanced cups. So I searched on the Aeromatic app and found a recipe from The Real Sprometheus. It has a long percolation phase and quite a short immersion phase. And this recipe fixed my coffee. I got a balanced cup without excessive bitterness and with more detailed acidity. Now, this is my recipe to go, as I think it's superior to James Hoffman's recipe.

Shark Lock is even better than I thought. It's so smooth and easy to operate. See example (2.2 MB)

Blocking vs filtering (self.syncforlemmy)

What's the difference between block user/community and filter user/community? Why do we need filtering feature if we can block?

Infused coffee (self.coffee)
submitted 2 years ago by Gxost to c/coffee
 

How do you like infused coffee? On one hand, it has unusual flavors, on the other hand, those flavors are added. What is more important, experiencing an unusual taste or drinking good coffee instead of the flavored one?
