Oh that one really makes you think doesn’t it.

I am a USB-C maximalist too. Until I find a cable that doesn't do what it looks like it is supposed to do. Then I suffer from USB-C depression.

My partner was for a bit. She deleted Instagram and started reading books again. This was surprisingly difficult to pick up again after a year of Instagram apparently. It does form very bad habits.

Can we have the UI that was promised in all the mock ups a few years back please?

Just had a quick scan through it. ToC is a bit rambling. Content sample isn't enough to judge the whole book. I'll reserve judgement. It looks considerably better than Practical Electronics for Inventors and several orders of magn

No one knows what is going to happen in the long term. No one is going to know what is going to happen in the short term. I'd take the education and put off working as long as possible and see if the market sorts itself out.

It's one of those characteristics you can't rely on unless you select / bin parts. Also depends on temperature. Which is why no one does this in a production design - it's expensive and unreliable.

Yeah that advice is smoking crack. I have no idea what people are thinking these days? We seem to have lost any sensible security understanding recently. You can't gaslight something into not doing something bad. There has to be a hard

I think it's simpler - they don't give a crap. Until somewhere down the line. Like when half of Spain gets cut off due to an arbitrary block on a consolidated service facade...

Yes. I am asking exactly that objective question. They are advantageous to leverage in certain situations but essential they are not. We're used to, in the technology industry, looking for or creating problems to solve with services we

Do you really need Cloudflare's services to run your business?

I think it's up to their customers not to encourage consolidation.

Apart from handling of abuse reports. Yeah we're acting as CDN for this phishing site - we'll just inform the upstream about it and do nothing.

Garbage -> Sedra and Smith particularly - hate it, anything which kicks you in the nuts right up front with Laplace and networks abstractions, anything from Pearson - have never seen a good one. Good -> Razavi (Fundamentals of Microel

This isn't particularly cursed. I mean we've had avalanche pulse generators for well over half a century easily. It's just exploiting semiconductor characteristics they don't teach you in the usual garbage undergrad text

Great article. Makes me glad I still write C!

A friend of mine wanted somewhere to host goatse for random QR codes he’s planning of sticking everywhere. Problem solved :)

This is a hilariously apt response.

Sorry I didn’t throw the answer grenade in your face like Claude. It’s there if you look for it.

by cryo32 3mo ago
It does if you read deeper into the answer. They are two different worlds.

I literally just watched someone do a text replace on a conference call to show me how good Claude was today.

I’m not using any AI. A lot of us aren’t. Vim has done me well for 30 years so I’m not going to throw that away to sharecrop on someone else’s land.

This is why LLMs are shit. They get between you and everything and turn it into a negotiation.

Bending Spoons are the miserable tossers who bought Meetup and somehow made it worse by monetising every move you make. And it was pretty bad to start with.

Trick is to ignore people who follow the cult. We went down the earlier Udi Dahan and DDD crap.

Yeah I'm using that one. We have a problem with software religious fundamentalists in our organisation and it's an apt description.

I've ditched Github for all personal stuff. I just keep my repositories offline. I have a reliable backup process so what's the point in pushing it there? I don't give a shit about public profile, stars or any of that gamifie

This feels so dehumanising.

If you can't make the board do good or hold them to account when they do bad things, you should leave. No leadership position can function without enough resources to do their bidding. And yes, I have done that.
