Not even the accents - different voices are annoying enough. When I was young I watched some cartoons in English, and hearing them in Dutch later, despite being my native language, was still uncomfortable.

Wait, "couldn't care less" is British?

I declared my blog to be `en-GB` as well, but I'm fairly sure it's neither that, nor any other pre-catalogued locale. There's just no way I'm able to know where any of the references I use came from, let alone which weir

Ah OK, so the ACP connector ensures tool calls work with Zed, and communicates the available tools and their results to the harness, and then the harness mainly provides a system prompt and the API calls?

So if you use Claude via Copilot in Zed... You use Zed's harness, I think? What does Copilot do, at that point?

I volunteered for a project [1] with roughly this philosophy. Traditional publishing currently serves three purposes: - Organise peer feedback - Publish the work - Recognise good work, helping with both discovery and credit That latter part

I never understood why we're OK with placing billboards, which by definition try their best to get you to look at them, next to the road, which we're supposed to look at.

Sadly that one seems to have been removed.

Right, but I think a typical Bluesky user never sees data from there in their feeds? Don't get me wrong, I think it's pretty cool that you can run all these different apps and have them store their data on their own PDSes. And the

I felt the same: when folks ask this question they might not be using the correct terminology, but what they actually want to know is how many different PDSes (that's what you mean by "atproto hostings", right?) there are in

Heh true, I did actually use Sidebery before switching to the built-in vertical tabs, which is what I was referring to - but yes, extensions can add tree-style tabs.

I'm still planning to add a "AI-edited version" toggle to my blog. Not that it would do anything, because people wouldn't click it anyway.

Of course, Firefox does support vertical tabs nowadays :) (Not tree-style though.)

Hmm that's fair, I forgot about the assistant; they're probably not that much cheaper than a teacher to be a significant budgetary difference.

If we had budgets that allowed for one teacher per ten students, I imagine many problems in education would already be solved.

Gnome has the same problem, that's why this exists: https://extensions.gnome.org/extension/4691/pip-on-top/

I don't think LocalStorage allows you to store gigs of data though, and IIRC this method depended on the Origin-Private File System API.

I can sign in to DigID without using my phone, except sometimes with an SMS verification code. (Of course they want to, and should, phase that out. Hopefully that won't be replaced by app store dependence.)

Oh thanks - I was waiting for a moment where I could turn up sound to watch the other video, but I didn't realise that that would set me back half an hour. This is the perfect amount of background for now!

The prime motivator for it is a certain user experience. I'm not sure they've found the best developer experience for providing that user experience, but I'm also not sure that a better DX is possible - the whole concept has

Heh, I haven't seen it myself, but I'm suddenly reminded about derision for having blue (or was it green?) bubbles.
