CDs are great for ripping into FLACs and then playing them from Jellyfin.

I will spend more in a month on a digital download at times than what I would've paid Spotify in years.

The only way to do a sane migration without downtime is to have tha application handle both schema versions at the same time. This is easily doable with a monorepo.

This worked great in every other country where some other country believed the situation will be more stable if you just topple the current regime, didn’t it?

I don’t believe the leadership sees Russia as an existential threat in Brussels. Baltics and Poland see it differently. A pre-emptive strike would be expensive and immediately retcon into making Putin be the good guy - he’s long said NATO i

The same as C++, destructors get called when an object goes out of scope.

Yeah, just don’t get emotionally invested in a chance of paying off your mortgage immediately. Don’t get your hopes up about materially bringing down your retirement age. It isn’t reasonable to expect the founders to do an employee’s biddin

Do you believe that the deals they make are unprofitable given the discount? Do you think the other countries are keeping guns to their heads or what? The discounts are there because they can be, not because other countries want to pay belo

As a European, if it wasn't for Russia's might, why wouldn't we defend Ukraine's borders? It is easy to express opinions about how things should be , but only with power can you make them so . There's of course th

Sure, but as soon as they released their first iteration, they immediately went back to the drawing board and just slapped @MainActor on everything they could because most people really do not care.

Oh, don't get me started on handling the same type of exception differently depending on what call actually threw the exception. I find the happy path in Swift to be lovely, but as soon as exceptions have to be handled or there's

Hypocrisy is an argument losers make. Might makes right.

Natural language. It's a language interpreted by LLMs. It is really high level.

We tried it CodeRabbit. They enable beta features without asking, so one day your GitHub issues get AI responses without anyone ever asking it to respond to it. I think the criticism was warranted. I think it is OK to let people be passiona

You can extend the kernel functionality without having to develop a whole kernel module? Just because your module has no memory errors does not mean that it is working as intended . Further, if you want to hook into specific parts of the k

> What? My screensaver password is the same as my login. It is the same, yet some uppercase characters are not supported when entered via a yubikey. This has been marked as a WONTFIX. This is rather sad, because I can enter the same pass

It was my understanding that changing the original codebase to fix it would’ve been involved enough as to warrant a rewrite.

by eptcyka 10mo ago
Yeah, but with how we’re moving towards running each (desktop) application in its own cgroup, thus restricting what syscalls any given application can do, soon any old user process will no longer be able to read any other process’s memory.

I care about being able to use the same password between the display manager, tty and lock screen auth. Yet, I cannot. I think the original maintainers and developers of Xorg would be the best people to choose if it is worthwhile to continu

If the issues are trivially resolved, why did the authors of X decided to abandon X? If the issues could be resolved, why were they not resolved? I am using wayland for more than 5 years now, it just works. X did not. Xscreensaver/lock

I can easily generate valid yet foul names that I’d prefer to not allow if I was into censoring usernames.

I can stop music on my phone and immediately listen to music from my laptop. I have non-apple headphones, a non-apple laptop and an iPhone. There is no apple magic dust that makes this happen.

by eptcyka 10mo ago
My iPhone has plenty of trouble connecting to various devices at times. God forbid it has to manage connecting to my car and my headphones at once. It works OK most of the time, but at least once a week it proves to be a problem.

Why stick your neck out, swim upstream to do a good job that will not be recognised as such? Fix the corporate incentives and engineers will be able to do the right thing without suffering. Not everyone gets the luxury of a secure career do

No, I don't think you are understanding this right, but there are some good questions you are asking. Where is the flag button? If you are a real human, the most interesting question you're bringing up is What about all the appli

Even the larger ones suck for typing. It is the keyboard. It works a lot better if you are using a language they don’t have autocorrect for.

I have thought about writing a python web framework were instead of writing a function that handles a request, you write a docstring and the an AI JIT generates your handling code. Could we not just prompt-engineer a solution for the missin

Could we have the same functionality on the pebble watch instead, please?
