draw.io (now called diagrams.net) has a sketch style that mimics xkcd / Excalidraw. You can try it here:

There is even a desktop app available (but the webapp works offline too):

Maybe I'm cynical, but I'm really skeptical. What if this is just some poor image generation code and a few hundred minimum wage workers manually assembling the examples? Unless I can feed it arbitrary sentences we can never know.

I would be disappointed, but not surprized if OpenAI turns out to be the Theranos of AI...

At least GPT-3 can generate texts much faster than a worker would need to create them manually.

What's the use case where I'd want to use Vagrant instead of Docker?
apatap · 8 years ago
Vagrant is also used as an easy way to spin up development environments e.g. for embedded systems via virtualbox. I am not aware of a simple way to create a GUI with docker. With vagrant it is just one line: v.gui = true

I wonder how different the ROI is between college degrees. I could see a large number of degrees having practically no ROI, compared to just entering the labor market, while others will be more substantial.

The source referenced in the website also provides ROI statistics by major and job:

I forgot about the lack of auto-complete and the horrible error messages. At least with a library when I have a syntax error or something blows up I have a debugger and the actual language at my disposal to figure stuff out. No such things are remotely available with all these external DSLs. If even there is any semblance of error reporting.

Several human centuries of effort have been spent on improving these things (syntax highlighting, auto-complete, stack traces, error messages, interactive debuggers, etc.) and then all these DSL authors decide to just chuck it all out. Boggles the mind.

More than a few times Terraform has wrapped an error message from AWS in the hopes of being helpful while hiding all the details of the actual error message and no hints how to rectify things in the DSL.

Syntax highlighting and auto complete is available for HCL (The language used by Terraform)

Isn't it expensive to host the DB servers?
