Google's cold potato is very good though. (Also, they offer the option to use hot potato and pay them less: https://cloud.google.com/network-tiers/docs/overview )

Holes in Agda are a good bit more powerful than in Haskell, and agda's emacs mode has a bunch of very powerful commands for working with them, eg: listing possible values, automatically filling, splitting them by case, etc. For example

Reread the original post: > I have to fix bugs before the code can run. I'm very curious how did the author run that code with the bugs.

I recently made the switch from LP to bitwarden and have been incredibly happy about it. I can self host everything + the autofill and UI polish (browser extensions, mobile app, CLI) is much better. AND it's FLOSS ((A)GPLv3). Even incl

This gets philosophical, but roughly I think of it as: Something that is truly false has a 0% chance of being true, by definition. Something that has we have proven false has an effectively 0% probability of being true -- but more specifica

Being wireless is just that good. Especially when exercising or otherwise out-and-about. The charging is not nearly that obnoxious, I've gone through a wide range of wireless sets and they've all had multi-day charges. Personally

parallel is like xargs++; for simple cases it does the same thing as xargs, but it also has many more advanced features such as: - Splitting input lines into multiple fields and building more complex commands from them - Running jobs on rem

A few slightly more advanced GNU Parallel features that I've used: - --joblog writes out a detailed logfile of the jobs, which can be used to resume from interrupted runs with --resume{,-failed} - `--slf filename` can be used to provid

It's true that this can be a pain; but this flexibility is also bash's greatest feature: a bash script can make use of almost any other program, regardless of the particular idioms that that program's author was partial too.

Sure, the "magic" bit of hooks that people are talking about doesn't really affect their type signature See eg, setState: `function useState<S>(initialState: S | (() => S)): [S, Dispatch<SetStateAction<S>&gt

> setState mutates some “global” state Is this true? Maybe I'm reading it wrong but this.setState in a React.Component just transparently calls out to `this.updater`[1] where `this.updater` is injected by the particular platform lib

Its not a part of systemd, its a part of ifupdown that was added to aide Debian's transition from SysV to systemd. Seems unfair to me to count this against systemd; there are other less intrusive ways this could've been done, and

I agree with the general point of the article, though the main compare/contrast of different code review scenarios seems to speak more about deadlines for code reviews than code ownership. Where I work we just expect multi-day turnarou

It's fine for the write permissions to only be enforced by convention or automated CI checks (eg, status checks on github PRs). No need to split up the monorepo or anything.

The crux of the article is that we have no clue what AGI will actually be like, therefore it is irrational to try and reason about it. I don't buy this, but even more importantly, the initial premise is wrong. We do have good reasons t
