They might also be more biased and less able to adapt to new technology. Interesting times.

> Doing 4 sprints over 2 months to make a prototype That’s a lot of effort for a prototype that you should be throwing away even if it does the right thing! Are you sure you’re not gold plating your prototypes?

I think you missed the point. AI chat is not compatible with the solitary focused programming session.

At that point you’re still paying the opportunity cost by losing out on selling your surplus.

Just install it from Brew and run the service in a separate terminal tab.

It’s also cheaper than dealing with the exponentially increasing costs of climate adaptation.

In my case I couldn’t get Rust working and ran into strange compilation issues with linker errors with the MacOS standard libraries. Tried installing them from Nix which fixed some problems but caused other ones. Everything just worked outs

How many of them actually work though? If you end up having to go fix upstream packages then having a tool manage your environment is not useful since you still have to understand the domain. With Nix I usually ended up in a situation where

Quickly skimmed through the Flox site and it looks like it’s based on Nix. The problem with the competitor https://www.jetify.com/devbox and most likely in Flox is that Nix makes trivial environment setup really easy but w

If you can’t verify it then that’s a rumor . The world doesn’t owe you an explanation and you can’t be informed of everything.

That’s why you verify the information from other sources.

There’s a world of difference between blindly trusting an LLM and using it to generate clues for further research. You wouldn’t write a legal argument based on what some random stranger told you, would you?

Linux support seems to be getting there. Windows support is on Microsoft to deliver.

That relies on the user configuring git hooks correctly, which is a similar problem as noticing that transparent decryption is configured correctly.

The sane way to solve that problem is to hire people in different time zones to get coverage. Some still need to do weekends but even those are not the same in every country (e.g. Israel).

How does having such a large surplus that you’re an exporter of food jive with national security? It sounds like they already produce more than enough. Exposing food production entirely to market forces is, as you point out, a bad idea.

Sometimes it’s not even about cutting corners. Just pushing back against poor meeting culture and declining pointless meetings can easily give you a 2x boost.

Why are you treating vegetarianism as the alternative to red meat? You can drastically reduce the “redness” of your diet by eating chicken and fish. Even pork is less “red” though I’m not sure if it counts as red meat for this study.
