"It's still pretty obvious and still much worse than human prose" You have no idea how many false positives and how many false negatives you have in your judgement. It is indeed impossible to differentiate between badly writt

They didn't sued Thomann and they didn't show up. They sued some Chinese guy who didn't show up and used that default judgement against everyone including Thomann.

They don't seem to understand, that there is no way out of it except giving the guy all the Lego sets or 200k dollars and saying "we are very sorry" multiple times. They're still trying to save their face and money and

I switched to MacOS a few months ago from sway and I really try to be as open as possible to the mac way of life, because I don't want to fight my OS. But, boy, mission control is unusable crap. I was really shocked how dumb everything

Vivaldi is the browser, where I always wonder why it doesn't get mentioned in all the privacy enhanced browsers. It's the only browser for me, that reliably filters out all ads with ublock origin while working on all websites with

I have kind of the same architecture. I host multiple dedicated servers and vps instances in the Hetzner "cloud", but all of these connect to a few hosted databases by Hetzners web hosting packages for like 20 bucks a month. It so

To me this makes no sense. Nothing in web development changes because of long running requests, there are plenty of solutions for this. The most easy one is to just listen long enough on a http request for the answer. The routing problem c

This project looks very interesting. Unfortunately, the fact that only new accounts are praising the tools reeks of astroturfing.

Putting on my tinfoil-hat: Sooo, the guy who runs the test and delivers the report could just have removed the more interesting bugs and delivered those to any three letter agency?

I'm sorry, but this is unreadable to me. It's long, it's very repetitive and it feels very over the top. Just tell me, what a skill.md is and what to look out for, that I would happily read.

This, and "don't be evil" was replaced over ten years ago: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Don%27t_be_evil So stop calling the Google people out for being evil. They are officially evil since 2015.

In 20 years of hosting all kinds of web services, some of them serving over 200m requests per month, a crashing single server was twice a problem. Dealing with over engineered bullshit, that behaved in strange ways that disrupted the servic

They do, it's called B2 and is another product of them.

Sadly so. In the last decades it was just normal for almost all countries. It's kind of maddening how low Trump lowered the bar for politicians.

Resizing the context window seems like a very good idea to me. I noticed a decline of productivity when the 1M context window was released and I'd like to bring it back to 200k, because it was totally fine for the things I was working

It's always funny to see people try speaking/writing german and screw it up in four words/14 characters :-) I got 38% german, 58% autistic btw.

I loved that time. Websites, or "apps" that don't change every second time I want to use them, are great.

I think the "overboard" part is that the developer was doxxed and received death threats.

I managed once to complete the maze, but then it went into "checking" and a spinner forever.

Well does it? If I would be able to break SHA2 and make myself rich with it, I would need to be sure that nobody would find out, that Bitcoin can be manipulated. The second anyone is aware, I wouldn't be rich anymore.

Sorry, English is not my first language and I tried to look clever.

While I would have the same reaction, in this case I think it is a sane decision. Ente is cornering the privacy market and I think they're doing a great job. They have a lot to lose (trust) and it would be stupid if they did something

I have the same questions. After installing the app, it downloads 2.5 GB of data. I presume this is the model.

Just a follow up: I wrote nexi germany via some contact form, that I will avoid using their services because of that story. They called me back and told me, that they asked the fsfe for a test account only. They also made an internal invest

I also think it is a good decision. Nevertheless it breaks the workflow of at least one person. My father's Linux password is one character. I didn't knew this when I supported him over screen sharing methods, because I couldn&#x
