I don't think that's possible but there is a by default unset shortcut to switch between windows of the same application. I set it to command tilde. And there are configs to make animations instant.

Ikea furniture doesn't just break, usually. You can have the same Ikea furniture for decades. Even if it did though, you can also still buy the solid wood Amish furniture for a reasonable price if you're intending to keep it your

Mate, things being monitored to that degree is the waste. I've worked in government. Working in government will immediately disabuse any expectations of efficiency.

I can't imagine what level of monkeys you've been working with when you can't even imagine a human writing better docs than Claude. Disturbing, frankly.

As stupid as this list is, there is seldom any reflection about why half the country felt this was necessary. I don't accept "because they are just dumb trump voters" as a reason. Obviously the left was doing some things that

It's a tip . I don't have to give one. Any reason I think of not to is a valid reason. This tipping maximalism idiocy will not end until people put their foot down: I am not tipping for anything that wasn't usual to tip for

I don't even understand how it's possible to max out these subscriptions. In the last few weeks I've been basically vibecoding at work with 5.6 Sol at max thinking and max context, ~6hrs per day of the thing chugging along, s

Most companies are boring and conservative in tech. Just not most "tech companies".

Truth is hard to get into. If it were simple and digestible, we wouldn't all keep seeking it, ever hungry for it... It has to be grappled with. You can't shake truth's hand and have a seat and have it flow into you smoothly f

The number can definitely go up for more than 30 years. There is a lot of wealth out there and the land is not getting any bigger.
