This only results in a race to the bottom. A self fulfilling prophecy. The unfortunate truth is that if you want the world to be better you need to be better to it than it is to you. It's the only way that can even work. You can just d

I mean we hide in the first place because configs and we don't want to clutter But more I was thinking that having ~/bin ~/etc ~/src and so on is just clutter. I use ~/.local/{bin,build,lib} so it's compac

We're talking about social media, not literally heroin. Heroin is physically addictive and you can die by going cold turkey. That's not true for social media.

Two things can be true at the same time. It's not just China. Russia does it. So does Israel, many countries, as well as many institutions in the US, both public and private. It's no secret they do this, they openly discuss it. Th

Why not push it under a hidden directory? Like ~/.local/etc? If we're reconstructing some of the hierarchy I think it makes sense to group and hide. Isn't the problem that the home folder is getting cluttered?

That's unfortunate to hear. I'd give kde a shot. It's been my preferred DE for years. But check out the below wiki and poke around for what your style is. The beauty of linux is adapting to you and switching DEs is a quick ch

If you have an Nvidia GPU you're generally going to need to edit the systemd services and change some kernel settings. This is a real pain point to be honest and it should be easier than it is (usually not too bad tbh) If you want I ca

Generally I recommend people use PopOS. It's well suited for laptops, as that's what System76 is focused on a they're shipping laptops with Nvidia GPUs. I personally prefer Arch based distorts like endeavor but even with wide

This is what confused me too. Why are people paying for these types of things? They don't need vibe coding, they need a search engine. Ironically I'm confident the LLMs could find them a free version of what they're looking f

Why are you leaving them running? Because they are slow to load? Yes, Neovim supports LSP and it is very very fast. I'm not sure why any of this is surprising. We're talking about the same company who is speeding up their file bro

Everything is a model. The word is just so vague. Did you use math? Great, mathematical model. Program? That's a model. You can assume a model is true but you know what they say about assumptions

Here's a work from last year which was plagiarized. The rare thing about this work is it was submitted to ICLR, which opened reviews for both rejected and accepted works. You'll notice you can click on author names and you'll

Given that many of these detections are being made from references, I don't understand why we're not using automatic citation checkers. Just ask authors to submit their bib file so we don't need to do OCR on the PDF. Flag the

Load time is in seconds, even with the program cached. I can still load vim with a ton of plugins[0] and still load a project in a few hundred milliseconds. Maybe VS Code is faster with fewer plugins but it's still "dog slow"

Sure. But if you talk about anything from a high enough level it's trivial. The hard part is actually implementing that.
