You and I have very different workflows I think. Drone was probably least intuitive system I've ever used. The idea seems nice, until you learn that Drone pretty much can't do anything useful out of the box. Want to move an artefa

Sourcehuts build.sr.ht is the best CI system I've used. I really want to give it a go at work as a replacement for our existing Jenkins solution, and I don't even thing that Jenkins is that bad. Previously I've argued that CI

When Nadella became chairman of the board at Microsoft? That happened in 2021. It's entirely possible that with a new chairman came a new business strategy. Satya Nadella is a cloud guy and a lot of the complaints people have of the ch

This went a slightly different direction from what I first assumed. For some reason I had hoped for an IRC server, connected to EFNet running on a robot lawn mower. Still an enjoyable read and a fun project.

The UK age verification seems to be "Upload your ID to a porn site", but that's not the EU solution from what I can tell. What the EU is building is an Identity Wallet, where your national online ID verifies your age with you

In older houses, made from brick and concrete, that can be tricky to do. The only reason I can have my computer on a separate circuit is because we could repurpose the old three phase wiring for a sauna we ripped out. If that had not been t

If that's true the x.com is brilliant. I think you can have to short, to generic domains for them to be actually useful/descriptive. For instance I think chatgpt.com is better branding that just chat.com. Also tinycapital.com → ti

My take is the reverse. It would slow down development of web standard, which is a good thing, and allow competitors to develop and catch up. We want more browser engines, and slowing down development, e.g. to yearly, every two, or every th

Is PCI like really expensive? I always wonder why these types of boards are so reluctant to add a PCI-Express slot.

I was thinking the same thing. If they have to raise money to buy Chrome, can they afford the development teams?

Basically anyone who would want to make an offer for Chrome should be banned for purchasing it. It's not a profitable business to be in, and Perplexity would just do the exact same thing that might force Google to sell Chrome. The only

It's hard to pinpoint exactly what it is, but yes, there seems to be an increasing number of small issue with Apple devices. They aren't major stuff simply not work, but yes, spam filter being pretty terrible, text overlapping on

I sort of feel like their own product, Maple.AI, have the same issue. The more users use the product, the more they have to pay. So they clearly understand that the pricing model is problematic, but they still use it themselves?

Some countries are even removing land lines. Denmark has removed the first bits of the copper infrastructure. Even if we wanted to have payphones back, they'd need to be cell-phone based.

Denmark have in the past few elections had a guy run on the promise of reinstating the Glass–Steagall Act. No word on how a Dane, in the Danish parliament would even be in a position of reintroducing a US law. It's incredibly frustrati
