  • Yes and no.

    In many cases (like for the Gradle DSL, that even if it can be either the old Groovy-based one or the new Kotlin-based one, you will always be able to find extensive documentation and examples in the wild for both of them) it is sufficient to specify which version you’re using and, as long as this doesn’t get too far in its context window forcing you to repeat it, you are good to go.

    But for niche libraries that have recently undergone significant refactors with the majority of the tutorials and examples still built with past versions, they have a huge bias towards the old syntax, making it really difficult - if not impossible - to make them use the new functions (at least for ChatGPT and GitHub Copilot with the “Web search” functionality on).



  • I’m sure you know the phrase “extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence”, yet while there are almost 400 sources documenting the Uyghur Persecution on the dedicated Wikipedia page, the basis for your argument is a photo of a city?

    If what you’re trying to say is that there is a genocide in Gaza that is not adequately documented by our media I’m all with you, but since this thread is attracting some deniers, maybe it’s important to remember that this doesn’t erase a completely disconnected fact that is documented by every major human rights organization (here is, for example, the whole report by Amnesty International: https://xinjiang.amnesty.org/).
