I've been playing with Copilot as well. It's very good at handling boilerplate and making contextual suggestions. I don't see it eating my cake, but it's definitely a very useful tool for saving time.

Whether it will have that many users in a few months is anyone's guess. This feels kinda like the flappy bird craze, albeit a little less silly...

Isn't the Pixel fairly well supported in terms of custom ROMs which in turn unlock access to more recent security updates?

I gave up on NixOS years ago. It doesn't matter how many nice ideas you have, even revolutionary ones, when the core experience is just such a giant PITA.

It boggles my mind people use Node for this.

You should try reading the self-authored "paper" the author of that op-ed linked to from said op-ed. It's...not great.

Buy more keys, configure them as dupes and store somewhere secure but accessible given a day or so?

Right...I get where you're coming from but I think where you're coming from is indicative of the why things changed. It's neat old Mac's from the 80s could to do that...but they had to be able to do that in order to be u

They may not be bad people, but their GUI framework is pretty bad.

So, just switch to Vivaldi. Same renderer and JS engine as Chrome but the devs have drawn a line in the sand about stuff like manifest v3: https://www.zdnet.com/article/opera-brave-vivaldi-to-ignore-...

Web services is a rather different kettle of fish from their consumer items side, so your comment is rather inane.

Since moral standards vary a lot across cultures and time, statements like your last line have dubious longevity. Even when it comes to unpleasant people like Moldbug I try to avoid talk of moral standards beyond the really clear-cut ones..

Turns out asshole can make good software! It's almost as though software development skills aren't correlated with social skills...

I work at a company that does DERMS projects in this space (peak shaving, load balancing, power factor optimization, voltage support, etc, etc). It's not that no one talks about this stuff, it's just that it's as with all thi

The smaller the company you work for, the less likely there is to be nasty shit going on you're not aware of...

Sounds like similar reasons why I enjoy Scala. It feels like Python, but with a proper type system :-)

They just bundled the timezone database in with the language. It's not particularly groundbreaking...

Rust is on my list of things to look at one day, but I'm still on the Scala train for now ;-)

It's weird how the more I work with Python, the less I want to work with Python. I moved into the language full-time in 2010 and it's now 2021. The packaging ecosystem is still a burning dumpster fire, the performance is still hot

MTG is kind the original lootbox, but I guess at least there is a reasonably good game behind it. I dumped my MTG in the early 2000s, these days I'll only buy into a card game using the LCG/ECG model. It's not necessarily che
