Comment Not a new thing really. (Score 3, Insightful) 116

We have seen this before with Visual Basic and PHP. Novices quickly churning out vast amounts of almost working code that can not be repaired, only replaced. This is just the next generation of the same problem. If you like re-implementing someone elses buggy software in a proper way, you got a bright future ahead.

Comment Lisp complexity is O(x^2) (Score 2) 70

In the nineties I read a research paper by a phd that claimed the complexity to understand and debug a Lisp program increases more than linear to size. Therefore a large Lisp program could only be maintained by someone with a phd in Lisp and therefore it was just a teaching tool and for very small programs (like emacs plugins etc)

The fascists have already won as I need to keep a paper with a phoho of my likeness and my name to prove I am educated to drive a simple car. What's next from the bastards, some kind of limitation on how much fertiliser I can buy for my garden (70 tonnes should be OK, I cant go buying more every millennia)

Comment What is the sequence of improvements here? (Score 1) 88

Full Self-Driving. Actually full self driving. I cant believe it's not driving itself. Truly autonomous self driving on regulated car parks only. Self driving double plus star shot.

Don't call it self driving until it can drive me home from a bar without me risking a DUI.
