I used these a lot as a kid and always disliked them. Pens and pencils are strange because there's su ch a wide range of preferences for such a simple thing. Something about them always irked me and I honestly don't know what it i

I think the software they were referring to is CUDA and the developer experience around the nvidia stack.

I'm in the North East, so I've never used a Waymo, but I swear the last two or so years of ride share of sucked. I mostly take it to and from the airport, but I have about a 50% likelihood of my Uber drive getting either racist, p

FWIW, I've seen many IDEs and plugins add inline type annotations so it reads as though they are there, but aren't. I think the first time I saw this was with the JetBrains IntelliJ Rust plugin in 2019.

There's no requirement to maintain a subscription. Each individual should be making this decision for themselves based on the value they get from a service vs the cost. The broad "startups" in question are just businesses try

A friend recommended it to me two weeks ago for our weekly album swap. I didn't really like it for the first listen or two, and then holy cow it hit me. I've been spinning it regularly since. Truly a fantastic album.

I feel like I'm the only person around that's completely okay with nice small additions each year. My phone does everything I could imagine, and once a year they add something nice that Android did first or a small quality of life

Apple has their own models under the hood I believe. I remember from like a year or two ago they had an open line called "ELM" (Efficient Language Model), but I'm not sure if that's what they're actually using. I am

My answer is definitely not going to be impressive compared to some grey beards, but at my job in the early 2020s, they liked to say they had a "servers are cattle, not pets" mentality, but that was just the case of most of them.

If they're small corrections, I generally agree that manual changes are the easier solution. I have been recently trying to correct it and then having it generate a Cursor rule to tell itself to avoid that initial mistake (style and st

This issue is too complex for me to really have a good thought at the moment, but I will say that this reminds me of that classic story of the Soviet who didn't launch the nukes during a threat came in from the US. The threat ended up

I purchase a lot of independent ebooks that come as epub files. You can send them through amazons kindle service or convert them with Calibre, but I love being able to just drag and drop any file I want onto it. I've purchased books on

I switched from a Kindle Paperwhite (2023 is the year I got the Kindle, not sure what model that is, but it was the most recent version at the time) to a Kobo Clara BW right after it came out (pretty sure it's the same as the Kobo Clar

Totally agree. I was given a Kindle Paperwhite as a gift (great gift idea, by the way) and eventually bought a Kobo for some more flexibility. Both were about $120 retail. It brought so much reading into my life - I'm a full ebook conv

My thought was that this is per person (I could very well be wrong) and each would have their own digital address, having all of them point to the same place initially and then the two could update when they move and the roommate staying be

But can’t you do your DI by hand? The frameworks can really become absurd in their complexity for a lot of tasks (I’m sure they make sense in many situations). DI is a concept that can be orchestrated with normal code at the top of the exec

Big thank you for the work on Zod - it's a fantastic library and it's been incredibly valuable for data validation/parsing in Node environments for me over the last two years.

FWIW there is iCloud on Windows [0]. There seems to be some Linux options, but nothing official, so it seems like it'd be a lot more effort there. Also no official Android app it seems. [0] https://support.apple.com/gui

It really is absurd that the same companies that won’t allow 2FA with any other method outside of SMS are the same ones not sending to VoIP. Maybe they all go through a service for SMS that blocks it, but it still upsets me. It’s insane to
