> It’s a lot of plastic. A lot of waste. And yet again customer demand and financial gain supercede environmental concerns. There’s no hope for a better, less consumer-oriented culture if even the indie creatives among us acknowledge the

Nearly nobody cares about the load on “national and local government resources, local utility capacity, and roadway infrastructure” for any other day-to-day activity. Why should they care about the same for AI which for most people is “out

It's always about cutting the OpEx spend. Companies are nothing more than giant piles of money seeking to grow themselves in any way possible.

It is, the default UI is stable and can be changed somewhat easily.

> I also don't think that Rust itself is the only possible good language to use to write software you don't really believe this because you said that the only possibly better language would be one that doesn't yet exist

They’re okay with it because the rewrite is in their preferred language.

Which cars are wholly partisan?

What part is nonsensical? Because Wayland is basically a fulfillment of jwz's CADT.

by compiler-devel 1y ago
Brilliant. This is another piece of evidence on the pile of why we got Wayland: it's because people who understood X11 mostly retired and everyone else couldn't be bothered to learn X11 because it's "yucky C code"

I have the same machine and installed Fedora 41 on it. Everything works out of the box, including WiFi and sound.

They both did, but governments enabled corporations to do it.

Recruiters, in my case, have either been contractors or employees of the companies for which they're hiring. In the latter case, they're better prepared than those of the former.

by compiler-devel 2y ago
Many recruiters continue to reach out to me on LinkedIn mostly, including FAANG companies. All of the positions are either a 3-2 hybrid or completely on-site. In such cases, these companies want to phone screen and have the first round tech

I’m fairly OK financially at this point so my strategy is to make the money I can, while I can, and then when I become unemployable or replaced by LLMs, just retire.

What do you mean by “isn’t earned income” ?
47.
by compiler-devel 2y ago
Yes you have missed something but don’t worry about it.
48.
by compiler-devel 2y ago
It truly is embarrassing. Imagine seeing something and thinking, "how can I get the government to forcefully take some of that for my benefit?"

When have increased taxes directly contributed to your take home pay?

Don’t get discouraged. This is a good opportunity to dabble in each of these areas and this is a project that the author shows will work, so you can follow the recipe. There’s some up-front investment for tools, but you may find it fun and

I stopped drinking 10 years ago and noticed no change. Did not lose weight, did not improve cognitive ability.

I have nothing against ublock or other programs for ad block. It just seems like we shouldn’t have to participate in the arms race around internet advertising. I would pay for content (like substack) to avoid an experience where I get popup

Why are you asking me again when I’ve already stated my position?

The commenter could have ADHD or some other disadvantage outside of their control. Imagine applying what you said to someone in a wheelchair—“making it accessible to you would ruin the magic.” Gross.

They don't need a dictionary to tell them that they're not oppressed when the reality in front of their faces says otherwise.

by compiler-devel 2y ago
Indeed. I wouldn't travel to France, the UK, or any other oppressive regime in these times.

It isn’t? I’m sure the railway workers who were just forced back to work would disagree.

Yeah… this was a pretty obvious power grab by a bunch of unelected bureaucrats. Sure, it’s popular, but what comes next?
