I highly recommend the new PowerToys. It's like the old one you remember from the 2000/XP days. This article covers my thoughts pretty well; always weird to see your own thoughts echoed back to you.

No, most software engineers think salespeople are idiots because they have a bad habit of selling things to customers that don't exist yet, and in many cases cannot exist, and then you have to tell them, point blank, that they just lie

Please stop repeating the falsehood that animal pastures can somehow be transmuted into high yield crops for the human food supply: about 1/3rd of farmland in the US can never be transformed into suitable farmland for that task, and th

Inflation is theft, however. Nobody should be engaging in this.

This is a strange case of outrage culture fake news. A story of where they used an industry standard practice to deal with a deadly contagious disease that cannot be eradicated once discovered in a flock, the story author did not prove what

The unfortunate truth of all such projects: if it isn't pre-installed on all reasonably complete Linux distos, it can truly succeed, no matter how awesome and cool it is... ... which is why I try to write as much stuff as POSIX sh as p

Man, the dead comments here are wild. Are there people who believe Disney is somehow pro-LGBT? They're a corporation: they're anti-LGBT and pro-money; the only time they seem to be pro-LGBT is when they think there is a monetary a

I don't understand what Fig is actually for. Why would I want a "visual autocomplete" when I already get what I want out of bash-complete + fzf, a more technically complete and understood solution?

Fun fact: Anyone who spams my private, other private, or business email address is going to find their domain name and IP range submitted to the various spam blackhole lists. Let's call this "Github roulette".

This almost sounds like they're trying to hide the fact that they have law-violating students on campus by removing one decent way of tracking. "Hey, so-and-so's phone just connected to campus Wi-Fi again," "Damnit,

I'd hazard a guess that the 20 to 50 year old tech described in that book hasn't changed much; anything that is novel is probably still under patent and will someday make it into a newer edition.

It's one of those "yes, but no" situations. We now have a particle that is ~126 GeV, behaves like what the Higgs boson was predicted to be. However, if the Higgs field is exactly what we think it is, it seems to imply energy

Thats not how these CPUs work. The CPUID instruction allows software to query the CPU on if an instruction set is supported. Code emitted by Intel's compiler would only query if the instruction set exists if the CPU is from Intel, inst

But they already do this. AMD is one of the largest corporate contributors to LLVM and GCC. It's Intel that tends to phone this in and make everyone else pick up the slack.

It looks like they just built something like KrigBilinear, which is open source and patent free. For very pixel-sensitive stuff like colored or anti-aliased text, nothing outperforms KrigBilinar on 4:2:0 sources. The real fix, obviously, is

Tim Apple has made it really clear he doesn't care about his customers, his shareholders, or anyone else at all. The only way to fix this issue is to help every Apple user in your life transition away from such a user-hostile company.

Don't know why this is being downvoted. The FBI is the incorrect part of the Federal government to contact (I suspect you want the HHS instead) and US whistleblower laws do not protect whistleblowers sufficiently and becoming one is

I used Base16, and even added a colorscheme generator to the near infinite collection of them that Base16 has. In the end, rewriting the upper 8 colors to not match the established ANSI color scheme is what broke it for me.

Don't get me wrong, I agree with this. Many Democrats also decided to join the Putin-backed coup attempt, and also voted to not impeach during one or both trials. Many Democrats also tried to claim Hunter Biden, while working for a

America elected Trump and then Congress knowingly rejected evidence that he colluded with Putin to defraud voters and steal the election. He then occupied that office for four years, while additional evidence continued to mount against the
