I'm still holding out hope for distributed and federated git forges. The only compelling reason for everyone to centralize on GitHub is collaboration on issues/PRs without everyone allowing signups on their self-hosted forges. Tha

Learning, probably not. Copy/pasting at scale , yes

Sure, but frontend devs fundamentally cannot contribute to the structural reliability issues. The person who rewrote the issue page view probably doesn't know anything about multi-cloud scaling for millions of users with Azure-crippl

I run GitLab and its CI on a Xeon server from 2010. It's fine. It runs exactly as fast as anything else on that machine. I've also run it on a tiny AWS instance. Also fine. I don't like that the idle CPU load is high (for rea

They're going to be adding a bunch of AI features. They don't have any plan for what the features are , but they will definitely be AI. This is almost as dumb as rebranding a shoe company as an AI company, or your tea brand as a

The uterus is not "eliminated" in males. Mammalian fetuses all start out the same and sexual dimorphism happens several weeks into development. The same structure that eventually develops into a uterus can instead develop into a p

Incorrect. Completely and utterly. Trying to make money on selling the solution to the problem you caused (while also probably tracking literally everyone with the solution) is much worse than causing the problem and doing nothing about it.

That's not learning.

Non-violent means don't work and get you killed by cops. This is what the people are left with.

I have always been super annoyed by the abstraction that ATP is a magical tiny battery that transports "energy" in some nonspecific way and that cells just hand-wave absorb that magic energy. I learned recently that the actual mec

Real answer: we've normalized and deified placing greed above literally everything else in life.

You should study autism and the people around you instead of your own navel. Clearly you don't at all understand what it is to be autistic or ADHD. Have you ever tried talking to an autistic person?

When people constantly dismiss and mock you like this, treat you like you're the problem, it creates a deep need to find an explanation and justification. You should try harder to treat autistic people like people, instead of mocking

Hypochondria is really common among autistic people. To the point that it's an in-joke and meme among the community.

My GitLab server at home is so nice. My last job ran a self-hosted GitLab on AWS with CI runners on-prem, which was a delight to work with. New job runs on GitHub. I frequently have to stop work and wait for GitHub to recover before I can c

IME it seems that output quality is directly proportional to the amount of engineering effort you put in. If a bug happens and you just tell the model to fix it over and over with no critical thinking, you end up with an 800 line shell scri

I severely doubt it. Token spend translates to real cost for the provider. Each token involves real and expensive compute. They aren't free monopoly money you get billed arbitrarily for. You're paying for electricity and infrastru

I just noticed today that it doesn't warn about approaching limits and just blows straight into billing extra tokens. I'm pretty sure it used to warn when you got close to your 5hr limit, but no, it happily billed extra usage. Gra

Yes, and the country is destroying itself because those in power lack basic reasoning skills.

This is why we need better education in this country. Anyone who has read any amount of history from this time should know that this is very simply not possible. This statment is unfalsifiable in the same way that "I'm a six-leg

Things are very different in the US. Police do not exist to uphold the law or protect civilians from anything. There are specific rulings in our legal code that flatly state police are not obligated to protect anyone. Police in the US exi

You haven't actually rebutted the statement at all. Do you have any proof or rationale for this statement, or are you simply assuming that retailers don't do this? And your example does not illustrate dynamic pricing at all. T

Same reason that you can't cancel a gym membership by walking up to a person and saying "cancel my membership". Predation, pure and simple. Google doesn't care, no one is holding them responsible for predatory behavior.
