yeah, many people here actually believe that you get sick when you're in an air stream. Like between two open windows, or within an AC. But then go home and work in their windy garden for hours.

its a fork of VSCode, so all plugins/... work like before, including Copilot. It adds the AI-features _ontop_ of what you already have!

Not OP but I understand the point. Still for me building up a company is not only for maximizing personal profit by any means, it’s also a social construct that should be valuable for the society. Paying taxes on economic activity, provide

Its not even good here: Step 5 needs clarification. If someone really follows the plan its bad, but _wrong execution_ is even worse. Shooting into wrong areas of you head can end in a world of pain or being a living vegetable for many years

Good. Once the safety bullshit can be reversed, hopefully scientists again focus on making real progress instead, not sacrifice tech capabilities for moral double standards. I don't care that OpenAI fears copyright lawsuits so they spi

The real world runs on Linux (from servers, data centers, microcontrollers, ...), business runs on Microsoft/Office, and creative makers (from designers to OSS creators) do it on a Mac. Of course not 100% true but wherever I look its l

It’s not my personal feelings, we have actual laws over here for this. Some things like that have serious consequences. Why should we allow this hate on the internet suddenly?

As a German, I have a really good idea what actual fascism looks like, thank you. We have also laws that specify what types of content are illegal, and for very good (historical) reasons.

Right now in Germany we have real problems with the large amount of Muslims entering the country, the single reason why rightwing parties are coming to power. It’s a very delicate topic and polarized. Now people spread propaganda garbage th

Is there some convenience wrapper around this to drop-in replace the OpenAI api with it? I‘d like to put this on a modest DO droplet or Fly.io machine, and be able to have a private/secured HTTP endpoint to code against from somewhere

For me Rust (after initial euphoria around 1.0 release) became the best option to do some heavy duty routines, like crunching through complicated large XML or calculating exotic things (that I can't bother to modify to run on a GPU). B
