I did try and it just stalls, taking down my CPU with it. I had moved onto other tasks and found it later still killing a few cores. It's in a monorepo with maybe 3000 files. I have no trust in the project.

I seriously dislike this kind of comparisons. We're faster! (please disregard the fact that we're barely more than a demo) Everyone knows about 80:20, the slowdowns will come after you start doing everything your competition doe

I gave you an example: they can't write it. I also gave you two examples of cultures who already did it: Koreans did it autonomously, the Vietnamese did it during occupation. Both are successful today. But yes "preserve history&qu

Pretty sure GitHub will go out of their way to avoid mishandling such important projects (i.e. they'll reach into their backups if things go awry)

Isn't that the whole problem? The core business of automobile companies is not software, but they're being kicked down by software companies. You're not a software company until a software company shuts you down.

Tell me a bigger red flag to identify junk apps. Every "homemade" low cost app has similar inexplicable bugs that they don't care to fix. My bank app forwards me to the settings every time I try to send a bank wire because I

Don't they have ads on pay TV too? "Free plus ads" is not the norm. In some countries you pay tax for national TV and you still get ads. Sports matches are only available on paid services and they stick as much advertising in

A system fails when its natives don't know how to use it. So time to sunset the system, surely? I don't know why so many countries are so obstinately hanging onto something so difficult. Do it like Korea if you don't want to

I think this happens every time something gets automated away, and in a way it's true. I'm sure a lot more accountants knew 123x27 by heart before than they do now. The problem is LLMs take out the whole process of thinking, and

This is the longest article I read in its entirety this month so it can't be that bad. Maybe because I actually was interested in the details.

To be fair a lot of custom-built websites are crap too and generally they cost a lot more time and money.

I don't deal with SQL and my knowledge of it is limited to what I learned in high school a long time ago, but… isn't SQL like super easy? What's so difficult about it that people don't know how to use it? To me git is ha

That's a different argument. Price it for its worth, not for my worth.

Right. So why work when everything is priced according to your worth? I'll stay in my $2 rent and free food delivery for life. Thank you.

What's your suggestion exactly? Making anyone who can find a bug a millionaire? That's ridiculous. 250k is already insanely high. You make a bunch money too, should you pay $100 for that taco? It's nothing to you.

Thanks! Yes that would work, just like an .html file would work. The advantages of SVG in this case are - the OS previews it as an image, but on click it opens a website (which to be fair, once you click on a downloaded file, you're al

Merge commits are probably the worst part of git. For a software that tells you how things change, merge commits fail at this miserably.

I want to make something clear: <img src=file.svg> will not execute any scripts nor load foreignObject. For this to work, the SVG has to be loaded in an iframe or in a new tab. Or it could be inlined in the HTML. Nothing special abo

What are you talking about. Any non-static hosting will let you specify headers with a plain php function. Any baseline shared hosting offers that kind of control and has done so for the past 20+ years.

I guess this could be a cross-platform format but you could also just store it as a sequence of commands echo "Hello, world!" > file mkdir -p dir/subdir echo -n "Content.\n" > dir/subfile

Yes and no. I've seen many established businesses gradually switch to it over time due to it being "the original." Thank Instagram for that.

This is extremely common. As far as I know any open source app that is remotely interesting will be downloaded, renamed and republished. And this is why a lot of such apps are no longer open source. One example is Sinder Sorhus, which has t

You're missing the "laying in bed" time that varies between 10 hours and 20 years. My grandpa chose the latter. No thanks.
