And this is probably going to get even worse the more automatic classification is used to promote or silence content. A pretty interesting result of this is what I'd call "TikTok speak", where words are replaced, either by si

I would love to give you a "just do X" solution for it, but when I tried it roughly 5 minutes before writing my original comment, it worked without any issues (on a somewhat up-to-date Arch Linux). Everybody in the call could hear

> Obviously it's more fun for people to assume it's been done on purpose & bash MS I mean, it definitely is, but you also have to admit that it's very in-character for Microsoft to intentionally break stuff, just to pu

I can't wrap my head around how the printer market has turned into this absolutely dispicable, foul state that it is in right now. Decades of innovation that have been invested, not to make a better product, but mostly on how to extrac

I've been using Next.js (with typescript) a lot and API routes always felt slightly wrong to me, since matching the types involved in the requests between client and server is always mostly manual and thus error-prone. I found myself t

It's cool that they managed to make the device work for them. But on the other hand, I think it should not be the job of the consumer to "fix" shitty design choices. If we accept devices that are borderline defective by desig

Until before the second to last paragraph, I'm fully with you on this idea. Especially when using the bike it's very frustrating that there is no (ideally low-friction) way to report people parking on bike lanes. But I think that

From the perspective of user with slightly advanced knowledge of tech, I totally understand your reasoning and agree. Never knowing what devices will be able to work together in an efficient manner kinda drives me nuts thinking about USB-C.

Often times, yes, but it still depends on the human. I've been in a situation before where an outsourced human decided the right course of action was to insult me and scream at me for an open-ended question along the lines of "I n

That typo/misread (Schroeder instead of Schrödinger) honestly almost causes it to make more sense to me. Because I don't really see how those tests relate to quantum mechanics. Instead comparing those tests to a chancellor of the

While I do have a soft spot for this kind of low-level optimizations, I wonder how relevant it will end up in the real world. The 16% reduction in runtime only occurs because the runtime of the program is completely dominated by the call-ov

For that reason, the usual trick is to use asymmetric encryption to protect a symmetric key (a fresh one per payload) that is then used for the actual payload. That way you get the speed of symmetric encryption with the benefits of asymmetr

If a language feature being weird is enough to declare that you're "done with it", you won't have too many languages to work with in the end. Maybe some LISP, I guess? You don't become a good craftsman by rejecting

I really appreciate the detail on the "Remaining bits" part. I like the minimalism/simplicity of i3 and the philosophy of doing a few things well, rather than everything a bit, but it also makes it hard sometimes to know what
