I don’t know, their hardware is still pretty amazing — IMHO higher build quality and value for money than ever before (except RAM upgrade prices). I agree on the software. There are 1000s of tiny problems scattered across all their Mac OS a

Sure, I get it, people like to call each other Nazis in a fight. I‘m just saying in the case of the FPÖ, it‘s a different story. They have/had Neo-Nazi connections, and that‘s well known.

The comparisons with the Nazis - in the case of the FPÖ - are not exactly far-fetched. They have a history of engaging with Neo-Nazis.

Like the article says, it‘s very likely that the FPÖ will win the next election. Even optimistic liberals share this expectation. Kickl, I‘m afraid, is much more serious in his anti-democratic ambitions than the FPÖ leaders preceeding him.

I typically keep all my SPA routes/route names in a single JSON, and then reference those from the App, instead of repeating the routes everywhere. I can then pass those to the server to let it know what the SPA can handle.

That‘s exactly it. It‘s ok for LLMs to not know everything, because they _should_ have a means to look up information. What are some projects where this obvious approach is implemented/tried?

Agree! My current racing bike uses chromoly steel, which is somewhat stiffer and stronger than regular steel, so they can make the tubes thinner. I can attest it’s very light as a result. Maybe not as light as a modern Aluminum frame, but s

You’re right. People miss that SPAs aren’t heavy by definition, but by accident and/or acquire bloat over time. You can totally have a super-useful, full featured, good looking and fast SPA in 150 KB gzipped including libraries. Only i

Not sure I’d bet on it. With the right prompts (describing interesting combinations of styles and themes verbally) you can get SD to create some pretty interesting art. Haven’t tried models that are specific to tile art and pixel art though

Even if that’s true, the rhetorics of this article are sensationalist and extremely outrage-bait-ish. Also, these numbers seem completely meaningless. If we’re being pedantic for a second: - EVs have infinite MPG, because they don’t use an

Very nice! Auto generating type information from looking at permutations of values is hard though. Q: Does this handle optional values? Also, being able to mark string field as "enums" and then collecting the possible values inste

I appreciate good snark as much as the next guy, but I’m not sure what the alternative is. If you have old iPhone accessories and a new iPhone, this dongle is what you need.

Yeah! Worth noting that both Galileo and Darwin intentionally published their most important works in the form of easily digestible „pop-science“ intended for the inclined layman. This was because they knew they faced near universal opposit

Not GP, but I would drop the pagination in the pop-ups. Regular Scrolling, maybe even css snap-scroll, would be more convenient. On mobile, some of the icons are too small to be legible (e.g. „mouth“). Overall, nice work though! The result

You know, the odds aren‘t high, and at the risk of sounding blood-thirsty – but deep down I kind of hope that they‘ll injure each other at least a little bit. Show the world how idiotic men do idiotic things, and how that‘s a bad thing.

I haven‘t tried it yet, but damnit, you guys really touched a nerve with the aesthetics of the landing page and the references to personal computer pioneers. It gives me OpenDoc vibes. I‘m so easily manipulated.
