Seems like a fairly impractical thing to map unless you're getting volunteers to walk up to and inspect people's front doors. I know there is an app for a sort of gamified version of this where people take tasks to verify street

Calibre loading books over wifi using KOreader made the jailbreak process worth it for me. My next will be a kobo or whatever else can run KOreader without hassle.

In my case the smell came from running over a rotten deer carcass. I settled on about a dozen trips through an undercarriage carwash them leaving the windows all open for a month. I figured the smell would go away eventually so I wasn&#x

"Recursion" is a word that shows up a lot in the rants of people in AI psychosis (believe they turned the chatbot into god, or believe the chatbot revealed themselves to be god.)

I'd love a Skill for effective use of subagents in Claude Code. I'm still struggling with that.

There are certainly a lot of people who do actually like their games, but a lot of their revenue comes from a combination of aggressive marketting and that old P.T. Barnum adage. There's a lot of new gamers born every minute, and it t

I had the idea to use an ozone generator in my car once but backed off due to a concern about it degrading interior rubbers and plastics. I guess that's not much of a real concern in practice though.

Chomsky's observations about how the media works may not have been solid science, but from the way you describe the present circumstance it really sounds like Chomsky is still on target.

From what you describe it really sounds like outsider artists aren't welcome and to get the money you have to be socially engaged with the nepotistic "art community". This is highly problematic to me, as I believe that going

If it's just some private art fund that has their own arbitrary view of what art has merit, then who cares? But if it's the government taxing me, an artist, so they can give my money to some other artist, then the standard for wh

Who qualifies? The guy writing bash quines? Minecraft artists?

Any not to any artists, but only to those the government bureaucrats recognize as being artists. I doubt they'll be paying anybody to write computer programs with artistic merit.

Maybe they remembered that a lot of people aren't actually good writers. My brother will send 1000 word emails that meander through subjects like what he ate for breakfast to eventually get to the point of scheduling a meeting about n

I don't understand the "your boss" framing of this article, or more accurately, the title of this article. The article contents don't actually seem to have anything to do with management specifically. Is the reader is

If you spend most of your time in planning mode, that helps considerably . It will almost always implement whatever it is that you planned together, so if you're willing to plan extensively enough you'll more or less know what y

Three years? One year ago I tried using LLMs for coding and found it to be more trouble than it was worth, no benifit in time spent or effort made. It's only within the past several months that this gas changed, IMHO.

Doing it the old fashioned lazy way, copy-pasting snippets of code you search for on the internet and slightly modifying each one to fit with the rest of your code, would take me hours to achieve the kind of slop that claude code can one sh

4chan is a small company with dubious profitability so I doubt they can afford much in the way of lawyers, but it doesn't really matter because they can simply ignore the UK completely. They only accept crypto anyway, so the UK can&#x

Enabling novice normies to make games was excellent, and I believe the whole game industry benefited from this resulting injection of fresh ideas. A lot of indy developers with fresh takes on what games could be got started this way. Zach
