Well, yeah, those people now need to find a new solution and they lost their data (save files).

Definitely not ok with Comsumer products either, especially once they are in this price range. It's basically in the range of an expensive laptop, fancy fridge + dishwasher, big couch, etc... Something that might have taken multiple we

Passing on personal productivity gains to management is always a HUGE L for the individual worker. As a dev, you can use the saved time to slow down and not be stressed, spend more time chatting with colleagues, learn new skills, maybe impr

I think that comes down to the kind of people you hang out with. While I use AI quite often, none of my friends or family does. A few of them will use an image gen once or twice a year. And at work, only a few of my colleagues use AI. So my

lol, I treat my email inbox like a dumpster that I occasionally search when I know there's something there that I need to retrieve. The spam has won, I have moved to chat platforms for my communication needs.

I like the Australian approach to these types of laws. Rather than making some complicated definition that carefully selects the desired targets it's usually just a list that the government maintains. Makes it obvious to everyone how i

Word and Excel aren't really that related either. The only reason we think of them as part of an office suite is because they have been bundled for a long time. As far as I can tell most people don't really use both, they mostly u

It really makes no sense. S is often used to mean the best in context of gaming, think tier lists or items/abilities in some games.

I don't know what to tell you other than skill issue. I don't think shell is a great language or even that good for configuration, but it is pretty simple and the quantity of footguns are similar to JavaScript. My issue with syste

If everyone is just using the Fortran libraries instead of reimplementing it in a modern language, then that's evidence that it's still being used for that purpose.

It’s really not that hard. I have found that writing robust shell scripts is pretty easy. Don’t use bash, stick to #!/bin/sh, use shellcheck, wrap all variables in quotes, use command -v to check if a binary is available before tr

I am really not looking forward to systemd taking over another part of the system with how unpolished and flaky their replacements usually are. Anyway, I have been using doas instead of sudo for a while on servers, it’s rock solid if you do

If you only want your ads next to quality content or on sites that are not drowning in ads so your ad is more impactful, then Google won’t help. But a third party can provide that through their curated list of sites. Basically they are in t

I feel like the problem is trying to turn human experience into a metric. Probably the better approach would be to have a well staffed QA team.

They provide curation to the ad buyers. Basically the marketplace is broken for both sides.

I have gone from systemd on RedHat to OpenRC on Alpine (have used both for years). Systemd is much more unstable and frustrating to work with. I do wish something like s6 was the default on Alpine, it’s been quite nice when I have used it i

Well, I was talking about a swarm, not a sphere. Moving a star is kinda nice as it brings the system with it, so you get to keep your planets.

A Dyson swarm does allow you to move the star or sterilise any planet in the galaxy by focusing the light into a “death ray”. So it’s a useful tool to have for more reasons than just energy.

I have noticed that ChatGPT tends to give higher quality results the more your question looks like professional technical writing. And on the other end, the more casual or student like your writing style is the lower quality the result. So

AI Explained on YouTube had a video some time ago about how the tests used for evaluating LLMs are close to useless due to being full of wrong answers.
