Browsers literally sandbox their own tabs. And the entire Linux user space is already sandboxed by design. This is why you type sudo. If os and software developers actually designed with the Linux filesystem in mind, there would be no need

Keep using it, there's tons of bugs for you to find in Fedora. My favorite was a system-upgrade that installed broken video drivers, as recently as late 30x releases.

What part about that is puzzling? A population 30-40x the size, split out over 50 states, with different laws and regulations, different political governance, different geographical and economic considerations... Why wasn't Switzerland

Not a fair comparison. 30-40x population difference. I have lived in both Europe and the US. And I have installed fiber internet commercially. When I lived in Italy, the best internet I could get was DSL, while a few years before, in the US

I know, personal responsibility is such a vile concept. Everyone can be so much happier if they can blame everyone else and the system for everything bad in their life.

That's exactly what my single parent did. Took responsibility for being a teenage parent, joined a trade union, paid more for a crappy apartment on the edge of a good school district, and busted their ass everyday to provide. I don&#x2

I'm a jerk because I've bought them and tried to find a use case for them, but found they weren't as good as other solutions? You have issues.

I have bought an rpi at every generation. And I still have yet to find an actual use for them. Everything they do from a compute perspective is just better with a mini pc or old laptop with a mobile spec chip. Everything they do from a prog

I would love a VAT tax instead of the never ending stream of taxes we pay on everything else. Americans are stupid. They see a higher tax on an iPhone they don't need, they will cry about it. But they pay more at the end of the year on

no, you're right. it's flying under the radar because people don't read these things and critically think about them. as per usual, the middle class will take the hit. the people that voted for this will become poorer, and th

No, the goal is to overhaul the property tax system. This is going to raise property taxes for everyone. The ultra wealthy can just pack up and move. It doesn't affect them in the slightest. But in two years when the property tax overh

So you want to tax something that has already been taxed throughout the course of someone's life, just because they want to give it to their kids? The only tax that is fair to everyone is a sales tax.

by dirtikiti 4mo ago
Property tax is not a workable wealth tax. It's a barrier for low income people to buy homes. Sales tax is a workable wealth tax.

Awesome. Now small businesses can do half their work before being told they've hit their usage limits too!

The sidebar method is better than agents for many reasons. The main one is I'd rather review the limited changes of a one shot prompt than ton of changes made by an agent. Another being the massive use of tokens agents force you into.

I dont get it. Why do I need immutable if I'm just running docker? Why do I need a specialized Debian variant when I can install docker on Debian or Ubuntu in a couple minutes? And maintenance happens directly through the package manag

Yes, but they're claiming massive generation speed which you won't get on Vulkan. You won't get it on ROCm on that Strix Halo, either. It's just funny they talk about vendor lock, and they only support nvidia.

Yes, you can run Qwen on Vulkan or CPU. But you aren't getting 207t/s. I just find it funny they talk about being vendor locked, and the only thing they support is nvidia.

"Local AI should be a default, not a privilege: private data, no per-token bill, no vendor lock-in. The hardware to run capable models already sits on desks. The software to run those chips well doesn't." So figure out how to

So Blizzard is supposed to make a game that's fun specifically for a subset of players who think WoW died in 2010? I hate to break it to you, but WoW is still the most played MMO on the planet, even after 20 years. So it would seem lik

I'd argue clean engineering principles (gang of 4 patterns) and clean code are not the same, and are most definitely not mutually exclusive.

Applause. I am in .net as well. The clean code virus runs rampant. Swimming in DTOs and ViewModels that are exact copies of Models; services that have two methods in them: a command method and then the actual command the command method call

Clean code does not equal fast code. All those abstractions produce slower code. https://www.computerenhance.com/p/clean-code-horrible-perfor...
