That'll be great for the world's natural outsiders. Those that hate pop music and dislike even taylored ads because of the creepy feeling of influence. Or who don't follow any politicians because they're all out to hoo

Love you work so much mate. Having a multi-threaded ruby that can be deployed via WAR files has been so useful for me in past jobs. Thank you.

As it's just you I'd stick with Ruby on Rails 8[1] as you already know it and I think it could realistically easily achieve what you're proposing. There's lots of libraries for calling out external AI services. e.g. some

Yes! They were on special offer in the centre isle of our local Lidl last week. Between the angle grinder and trombone section.

Oh god, I just put in a made up claim for a tooth lost in Timbuktooth, just to test the system and then I saw this... Knowingly making a false claim is a criminal offence under Section 17B(2) of the Teeth Finance & Renewal Act (1978

Socialism maybe the but the Roman Catholic church has a strong history of opposition to communism. I would suggest God's Bankers: A History of Money and Power at the Vatican as for a pop-culture introduction of how the Catholic church

I’ve always been puzzled by the proposition of E2EE when you have no control of the ends. If Meta wants to read your WhatsApp messages they’d just do it on your device. How would you know?

The answer is, like most things, not simple; it depends on what you are doing and the version of Ruby you are using. I just found this[1] great article by Miko Dagatan with loads of benchmarks for Ruby 3.4.2 that goes into a bit of depth. 1

There’s at least a 3rd option, closer collaboration with the UK and an extension of the UK’s nuclear deterrent to Canada. I’ve heard a lot of talk of CANZUK again recently and it makes a lot of sense to me.

For voice integration, you can just provide a bluetooth microphone on you device and have it access Siri. Garmin have tried the same strategy on some of their watches. What you can't do is reply to a text without using voice, which is

I get your point but it's a case of right tool for the job. Every copy of Ruby now includes YJIT written in Rust because Rust is the right tool for that task. It's easy to forget though that number of lines of code required to do

It's worth remembering that the trolls that complain about Ruby do so because they care about it. You'll often see the same names coming back on every post to angrily insist that no one is interested in Ruby ...apart from them obv

Everything I've read abot Woz, from employee stock options at Apple to how he conducts himself in general, leads me to believe he is a good egg. Banning him from Twitter for not agreeing with Musk is just childish. Whatever happended

I see that the fix also turns Apple Intelegence back on without asking. Is that going to be opt-out on every OS patch from now on? They really aren't taking no for an answer on that one.

One small error I've noticed on the Phoebe page, the man who killed Acorn was a guy called Stan Boland not Sam Boland. I leave someone with better knowledge to tell that one but it's a pretty sad story.

The A7000s sort of passed me by as I had a RiscPC at the time (which predicatably I really regret selling). I always wanted an FPU for my RiscPC, do you know how much difference they made day to day?

So much history here for me. One landmark buried in there was the ARM 250 chip based machines. I think they were some of the first system on a chip desktop computers. They lacked the glamour of the Arm 3 based machines launched around the s

It might be worth noting that this is not specific to the EU, it's the whole of Europe. So for example it includes companies from Norway, Switerzland and the UK. So asking how much tax is paid or how much supply chain is in the EU doe

This sounds really interesting. This sounds like it's designed for Shopify (obviously) but I can see this being really useful in general. Off the top of my head, repeatedly running tests when doing TDD. Not much code is changing on e

I beleive that Yamaha Motor Co was spun out of Yamaha Corp. So they share the same logo because they were once one company. This is not too unheard of even in the West. Rolls Royce Motor Cars is owned by BMW but they just bought use of the

Might depend on location but in the UK and most of Europe at least, 8 bit computers were very, very common. The ZX Spectrum went for about £99, that was pretty cheap even back then. The less capable ZX81 was only £49 in kit form. Games con
