That could be just as good but it has the same problem... how to find these jobs.

Maybe we could start adding flags to sites that block browsers with a failed Cloudflare "Security Check". archived version w/o check: https://web.archive.org/web/20260701193209/https://www.

+100... I'd love to find a spot at a tech co-op but they seem as common as a hen's tooth.

The generally used term that I'm familiar with for this is "referential transparency", that given the same inputs you'll get the same outputs every time. LLMs can be deterministic (referentially transparent) but almost n

They still exist. Truthear is a decent brand.

So free software can only be considered a successful strategy if every single project succeeds?

I've dug into this a bit and I'd say the answer is no, they do not support being used as a secondary.

Don't they have to go through a Google approval process for (official) Android? I'm not sure I see this as a big win unless they are strictly supporting GrapheneOS and other de-Googled Androids.

Where did they say they were boycotting iOS?

Disagree. Hiring and firing is better than a bad interview process. The reason we don't have that is due to regulations and litigiousness (and the laws that facilitate it). IMO failing to get the opportunity is worse than getting the o

Why is a lossy testing filter better than just failing out those who can't make it? Maybe allow for larger freshmen classes and smaller latter classes or adopt community colleges and have all students start there and advance into the U

I think dma ( https://github.com/corecode/dma ) would work for this purpose and has a much easier config than exim.

How is it an step-up from markdown? Markdown (w/o any embedded html) is a simple text formatting that lets you read it as a plain text file with some minor formatting when rendered. Typst source files are not human readable in the same

Does Chromium would still work?

Easy peasy yet still impossible for them to do as R&D doesn't add to the bottom line, it is a cost center.

This makes total sense given that a wiki is a collection of plain text files with a few simple conventions (not markup) around formatting and linking.

This is when it makes sense to split your business up into multiple smaller businesses. The government should be doing this via anti-trust but they have dropped the ball there so, at this point, the corps really need to just do it to thems

They probably meant both. Open training data is obviously better than open weight, but open weight is still much, much better than closed SAAS models.

Isn't the classic way of making money off an invention is to patent it... so why not patent those "Two Weird Tricks"?

Why a library and not a service/daemon? Or are you planning to write a server based on the library and just haven't got to that yet?

> course NodeJS made it a backend dream More a nightmare than a dream. It lead to the terrible practice of tightly coupling frontend and backend code bases that led to inevitable pain. The language barrier between front/back-ends wa

So you're saying this is being done to benefit Anthropic, giving them that regulatory moat they've been so desperately asking for... This could give them that slowdown in model training that they need to be profitable.

Noted. If I ever have to administer a Postgres setup again I'll take a look. Thanks.

Homebrew, mise, flox, devenv are the first ones I can think of.. Arch Linux's AURs get an honorary mention as they are used in the similar way on that distro and Arch + distrobox gets the same results. A quick search shows there are ma

Does anyone know of a good comparison of the process to add a package to the system? I've used multiples of these sorts of user-land package managers and always find tools that aren't in the repositories that I have to install man

I tend towards using key-value databases as I find them general purpose enough while being much more robust. I'm not married to any one in particular, depends on the requirements.

That's great news! I'll bookmark this in case I'm forced to manage Postgres again.

> The reason DBs like Mongo or Dynamo exist is because Postgres has a scaling problem. I've used Postgres at a few places and the #1 problem was always high availability, not scaling. One Postgres cluster could easily handle 100000
