The diary is fine, but have you seen org-mode?

It is much better on Android

If you like this you might like org-mode

Apple used the company ID as part of the key material??

Hold up, how are they generating a private key from a public key? That's supposed to be very difficult. Are you saying that a large chunk of the key (private key or public key?) is a manufacturer code? That's insane

The problem with energy is that it's, well, energetic. It doesn't matter if it's green clean solar or nasty fossil fuels or highly debated nuclear energy, there are big risks of the energy production and storage getting out

"What would actually happen if I have a branch under development and it gets deleted from remote?" The remote reference would be deleted but your local one would not, and you could push your local right back up to the remote if yo

Is it intentional deceit to tell everyone it's leading to something when, as you correctly point out, nobody actually knows if it will?

I honestly can't tell if this is a sarcastic reply or not

I think the difference here is it is not at all obvious to me that an LLM is a force multiplier on same the order as cars to legs. Cars are pretty easy to observe in action doing what they promise to do. Driving a car is a very straightfor

If I have to go to this much effort, what is AI buying us here? Why don't we just put the effort in to learn to write code ourselves? Instead of troubleshooting AI problems and coming up with clever workarounds for those problems, tr

I hope this is a joke, but I'm guessing it isn't, lol!

Seriously!! Coding with LLM's is marketed as a huge time saver, but every time I've tried, it hasn't been. I'm told I just need to put in the time (ironic, no?) to learn to use the LLM properly. Why don't I just

That only works with Windows?

I've had a DC-1 for a few months now and this review sums it up nicely. The one thing I'd say was missed is that you actually can assign actions to the extra physical buttons with apps like Key Mapper

Use direnv for automatically creating, activating, and deactivating your virtual environments. I don't know how anyone lives any other way. Just put this in a .envrc file (substituting whichever python version you are using): lay

Interesting thinking about this being connected with young people using subtitles all the time. I've been using noise isolating and active noise cancelling earbuds and headphones for a good 20 years while working in noisy cubicle farm

Are people still including wood and wood pellets as "renewables"? It seems like that would be throwing off any cost calculations

Does the author really think we've never held large sporting events in these cities before? Never hosted international events like the Olympics before?

I was hoping for an explanation for why this is a key agency, or why it's more interesting news than cuts at any other agency. None are given in the article.

"including if the patent is acquired by another company (eg during a company purchase)" Honest questions, I promise: Is that true? Has that ever been tested in court? Why don't more corporations or patent lawyers advocate

So in other words, Red Hat does not freely license their patents, they say "you are free as long as you don't come after us." Which is exactly the system 99% of companies follow, just more formally stated. Yet you berated

See my other comments to you. Sometimes the threat of a good offensive weapon is the best defense. It's kinda like a nuclear arms race

by krupan 2y ago
My friend, you really don't know what you are talking about, and getting all riled up like this is not the right way to learn. Freely licensing your patents doesn't protect you against patent trolls. I wrote out how patent fights

There's no way an LLM is decoding this. It's just giving you a statistically likely response to the request, "guess my secret message." It's not a big surprise that it guessed "Hello" or "Hello, worl

One of the benefits of the patent system (that now seems to be far outweighed by negatives) is that patents are public information. Your invention is documented for all to see. I don't think that someone writing about public informat

Berating people for filing patents in self defense is not how we fix this problem. The government put these rules in place. Businesses have to at least accumulate patents to use defensively (you found a patent of yours that you think I&

First of all, it's not just a game, it's an outright battle to the death (of your company). Sure, you can choose not to wield patents, even in self defense, but good luck with that.

Patents are part of the game you have to play, like it or not. If you don't patent your inventions somebody else will and they will come after you with their lawyers. Patents are used defensively far more often than they are used off
