How does that help if you don't go to the github site but just use git from the command line?

Exactly! Although my last cat was nicer and slept between the keyboard and monitor. Pushing aside every small piece of crap that I kept on the desk of course (had to regularly gather sd cards that she pushed off the desk) but at least she l

Humm purple and 4 gigs of ram in 2001 sounds like SGI. But those purple SGIs ran Irix so no 3d studio.

Heh, my main "heavy stuff" desktop only has 64GB. But it feels really good to have more ram than you can think of a use for. I have a faint memory of an interview ages ago with Knuth I think where he mentioned as an aside he was u

Hey didn't they drop the 512 Gb model? https://appleinsider.com/articles/26/03/06/forget-512gb-ram-... You may want to hold on to your M3 Ultra! There's no guarantee there will be a M5 Ultra wi

The point is why are they suddenly an "AI" firm, not to debate the fine meanings of spyware. Are the other spyware companies that you mention in your post also rebranding as "AI" firms?

by nottorp 7mo ago
Palantir is an AI firm now? Thought it was a data collection/spyware firm.

Are they? I mean they're world famous. I'm sure there were thousands of local bands before them that made a penny from merchandise. Maybe they didn't even have finished records to sell.

by nottorp 7mo ago
Well that goes for most bands doesn't it? There's this local band. I go to their concerts at least once per year. But we also own 4 of their hoodies in our family of 3. I bet they made more money from the hoodies than from the con

For -40, the anecdote for combustion engines used to be that in Siberia you turn on the car's engine in november and off in march. For -20 though, it can happen each year in 4 season temperate climates and north of that.

What you've given is an example of how to implement a coroutine though. Not of how to write a state machine based application without hiding the state machine behind abstractions.

> turns it into some sort of ugly state machine Why are people afraid of state machines? There's been sooo much effort spent on hiding them from the programmer...

With google, the problem is that their "AI" can randomly ban you though. And the only recourse is making it to the top of HN. If that even works any more.

Because I don't mind paying github $4 or $7 and not worry about the admin burden. Of course, this goes for simpler setups where you only use the git hosting part. Because to switch providers you only have to change the remote and push.

US legal protections do not apply to EU citizens keeping their data in the US, do they? So what's the point of this comparison, since if I host my data in the US they don't need a warrant at all?

The thing is, if you want to convey a social/political message via fiction, you have to be a genius to make it non boring or uncanny. Very few humans have managed this. This text is at the average level of "i want to pass the mess

Sprints are just ritual though. The others... if you're that low I'd say you're past waterfall since you have well defined tasks while I feel a waterfall like approach is more for initial architecture.

Are we starting to need a BuSab for programming?

by nottorp 7mo ago
There's an abstraction level above which waterfall makes more sense, and below which [some replacement for agile but without the rituals] makes more sense.
