   it's not always the coding. it's keeping straight what you've asked it. I've seen mistakes that almost mimic memory loss. Node A is measuring node B. OK, next step is to apply this update to the measurement codebase in n

   Thanks to this lovely site, and my distaste for AI, I've found a whole ecosystem of minimalist blogs and artists' personal sites. It's shifting my habits and foci. I don't do socials anymore except forums like this. Mayb

    I like my old kindle for the same reason I like using Linux and the command line as much as I can- to minimize distracting bullshit. Amazon wants all their devices to be data harvesters as much as subscription and purchase vectors. Though I

    there must be a strong causal link with terrain / the nature of these rides. I live in hilly country so I learned as a kid how to upshift and downshift. 80% of the rides I take would be slow and laborious with a single-speed bike. I&#x

    Been spending a lot more time on the small web lately, deliberate choice, what can I do? how can I replace things in my workflow? Would love to see this trend explode.
