I wonder how they implemented "alt codes" is some remnant of the menus still in there (if only from some accessibility feature".

This new palette should be behind a new control code, that should sort out the issue of opting in.

If an app is to have qualiy then AI isn't nearly enough.

Directing the AI and using it to learn from is good.

Still, ideas about AI are currently ruining all sorts of markets (and being used as an excuse to lay off huge amounts of people, who then aren't going to be customers).


Interesting they kept that, I really feel we lost something when we lost menus that underlined the shortcut letters you use for them.

Yep and funnily enough it's less subtle/aesthetic than before. The letters appear as big yellow stickers over each UI button, making them very easy to find & learn.

Imagine the size of the scotch tape rolls used in a factory of this.

I'm from the ancient years of Java, surely this must have started at some point ?

Do you get getters and setters ?

I left Java around version 5.


The more modern take is to not bother with getters & setters for most things. People were cargo-cutting getters/setters on every variable without thinking about the implications.

First off, there's the question of if most things should even *allow* updates or just be immutable.

Second, what's the discernable difference between `public final int foo` and `private final foo` w/ `public int getFoo()`. Nothing really. The claim was always "but what if you want to update `foo` to be something more complex? The pain that these advocates always suggested never really wound up being much of a real world problem.


Anything relying on beans for (de)serialization via reflection (XML; JSON) were the big incentive in the J2EE space if I recall correctly.

Yes. And I believe it kept going with Spring.

But those were mistakes imposed by frameworks. Not a necessity for good language usage.


Records [0] are a modern form of data transfer object. They are immutable though.

The idea is to make it more compatible with DOS 6.x

So I believe things like Long filenames are not emphasised.


We should not be doing business with people mentioned that many times in the files.

What crime was he convicted of? Surely that has some bearing?

So which crimes are unforgivable enough to permanently prevent someone from rejoining society? Typically we handle these by assigning life sentences without parole. Was that the case here?

"a crime"

Feel free to elaborate on which crimes should require us to permanently exile someone from society and which ones shouldn’t. Usually the court handles these with life sentences without parole. Was that the case here?

There is no reason to trust them, and many not to.

It's not psychological manipulation its just changing the context, this is just an inherent property of the system.

writing "ignore all previous context" is changing the context, but llm guard rails are strong enough that simply changing the context is not enough on its own. hence why i asked.
