It sounds like we should plot 'count of compromised repos' against 'time taken for maintainer to initiate a resolution', and pick something just after the inflection point.

Genocide is certainly not an outcome I've seen be suggested in the conversations I have had or read. This feels like quite the false dichotomy.

It should be hoped that whoever is doing this is using automatic formatters; though of course metrics relating to code complexity are best done as measures over the AST.

In many places, on Reddit especially, anything remotely referencing Travellers (UK), Roma, Gypsies will get flagged, locked, and taken down very quickly. To a degree there is brigading and to a degree a large number of people are unable to

What is presented is a very short list of separate issues. It could easily have said "widespread shoplifting, potholes"; it is not insinuating that one causes the others, just like shoplifting clearly does not cause potholes.

No, I'm pointing out the author's hypocrisy.

This blog post is an exercise in publicly shaming Hey/DHH for their blog post. Which is fine. But there is significant hypocrisy in presenting as though you aren't doing exactly that.

Yeah I got quite excited that there was somehow a better -i; its almost perfect clickbait

I don't know if I'm doing something wrong, but if I set Capacity Retained to 100% then no matter what I set the other values to a bunch of countries deplete their reserves. This feels wrong; but I'm inclined to think I'm

I was surprised at how little improvement they could eek out of tuning it; but it is a non-trivial improvement which is much less likely to wastefully spin if your validation is more expensive than you realise. Makes sense that its in the m

Commands like /goal and similar are the more complex version of this; you write a prompt like it was a singular iteration, it runs one iteration, then runs an "evaluator" to determine if the goal has been reached, then runs t

A graph is much more than one conclusion; in fact, almost the entire point of graphing is to allow the comparison of "shapes" and to easily hypothesise about associations across datasets. This graph misrepresents the rate the pric

What on earth is that H100 price trend graph. The equally spaced x-axis points are 2x6 months, 6x3 months, 9x1 month. The whole visualisation of the trend is ruined on the back of that. There are liars, damned liars, and people who play sil

IIRC Apple have been allowed to remove Fornite from the Apple Store, they just fall foul of the EU Digital Markets Act / DMA (?) when also blocking the Epic Games Store as a route to add/sideload it. Removing ChatGPT due to ToS vi

Built to work with lmstudio, one of the leading easy to use local model servers. LMStudio is the closest to plug-and-play without sacrificing play that I've seen; a harness that works well with it is nothing to sniff at. Its not earth

Do you have sending from the incoming address setup? If so, using what?

This is genuinely hilarious. Are you able to elaborate? Which banks? Which B2B? There is probably a shared product stack here that is making some hilariously poor decisions.

I don't think you need any non-timer version. The archive is there for people to play more. Some suggestions people have made around being able to shuffle or place letters - maybe. But the game is pretty perfect as it is.

I think that "Africans should not have access to high-speed satellite Internet" is something you've just made up; the article you link talks about African people turning to Starlink because of local infrastructure issues, and

My ErgodoxEZ: - nearly made me cry. - solved my back pain. When you didn't learn to type properly, relearning to type can be a very difficult task; re-learning on a split keyboard is particularly unforgiving. Around three weeks into re

I'm not sure if it is that the desktop is being taken more seriously, or that its easier to write code that works on many distributions and configurations, greatly reducing the cost and increasing the value of the existing 'market

For industrial production, power use. For home use I'm much more interested in being able to add it to cold drinks and desserts.

You seem confused. It is you that was levying criticism and denigrating others because you don't actually have anything material to add.

There is no irony; I'm under no obligation to take up any debate on any particular point you raise. You're constructing more strawmen.

I think your critique is actually the hollowest thing here. The article is presenting an idea, not a solution. You've failed to see this and have constructed several strawman arguments in order to critique it. Most importantly the arti

I had a little search this morning, and I think I was wrong and you're right. 2h edit/delete when you have no replies.

Ha. Yes I haven't calibrated myself well for that form of users. It would seem that telling them to tell their agent to read cooldowns might be the best advice there; they sure as he'll won't read it.
