How does Pi compare to vscode? Admittedly that is the only “agent/harness” I’ve ever used.

I can just about garuntee you that civil war will happen in the US before it allows other to write its constitution. That is a hell of a take.

A web forum is not social media. Full stop.

That is fucking amazing. I’ll email you. Thank you so much for even typing that out. I also played hard support almost exclusively, back when buying wards was not a thing.

That is so cool. I bet that was an absolute blast. Can I ask for a war story? Something hard or goofy that I as I player (and a software engineer) probably had no idea you had to solve? I really loved that game.

It really isn’t. I haven’t watched the news on tv in probably 20 years, I haven’t had any social media accounts ever, and at this point I use the internet as part of my day job, to do my job. It is absolutely amazing to be so disconnected a

I have had the misfortune of hiring many attorneys for a variety of different legal issues. They’re almost always fucking useless.

Ha, it’s not.

Depends on how they are responded to, if you’re looking for a flippant answer to a flippant question.

So large? Really? Allow me to introduce you to electron.

Yeah, the dead comment really cements the bias of hn despite what people claim. I don’t use either platform, I have no interest in the debate. As an outsider looking in, the bias has been proven. Not that it matters much, I am left-of-cente

Oh wow did you work on HoN? I devoted many, many, many hours to that game.

I have no opinion on the man at all, but rather, what politician doesn't participate in stagecraft?

The world population will peak sometime between 2060 and 2100, and then start declining. 2060 is like… 34 years away. https://www.un.org/en/global-issues/population

Why are you implying that advocating for your belief and making someone else endure that advocation is some kind of right? It is not. As to your question, there are a lot of extreme beliefs that sometimes end up becoming true. IIRC the pers

I would counter with people who believe the earth is flat. This is in fact an extreme belief. The best part is, I don’t care if people believe this, not even a little a bit. I care when they start arguing with me and trying to jam their bel

You never went to a programming competition in school? None of what was said is novel, it’s all been around forever, the tricky bit is the regurgitation software mucking everything up. Not that it’s about me, but I was doing programming com

Drones and defense have nothing to do with expense. It is 100% about getting on the approved vendor list, at which point the prices go up. It’s not like PCB boards in the defense industry are somehow special, though they probably should be.

I’m absolutely on the record of being against nukes. Not really sure why you posed that personal attack, but it’s about as shitty a thing as you could say. You feel better?

Then what is good will? A movie character?

How’s this. I can tell you with absolute certainty the US has a lot of munitions, they have not run out. Let’s stop pretending that the only reason Iran isn’t glass at the moment is because of the good will of the US. Unbelievable.

Ah.. yup.

Back in “the day” nerds just bought the hardware to fuck with. Some of us still do. Claiming that compute is the barrier to entry just means you’re not a nerd. That’s ok.

If that is the load-bearing part, I failed to make my point.

The joy of working with seasoned cast iron cannot be overstated. Heavy isn’t bad, we could all do with a bit of exercise. Easier to clean and maintain I disagree with, if you’re willing to do a bit of work up front.
