Hence why Silicon Valley started at Silicon Valley. It was (is?) a huge defense contractor outpost.

I'm the same way. I absolutely need a commute and a hard bifurcation of my work and personal environments. I've been paying for coworking services of some kind since COVID. That and having a separate work phone has helped a lot.

Does anyone have a photo of this box? I can't find it online; I'm only able to find Entertainment Pack 1.

I finally got around to reading "Careless People" by Sarah Wynn-Williams. Not surprised at all by this headline. I quit Facebook and Instagram several years ago but was motivated to finally quit WhatsApp after reading that book. C

Yeah, it's a pretty easy process these days. Just insanely time consuming. Fastmail has an easy migration tool as well if you don't want to go the IMAP route. Now, migrating filters and rules over on the other hand...

Another happy Fastmail user and G-Suite refugee here. I've been using it for several years now and couldn't be happier. It just works, and I greatly appreciate that they don't try to foist "value" onto me like Googl

It has that feel to it. Hard to describe. It has a very consistent way of writing that gives it away, even if it's rephrase from text that was previously written by a human. Beyond that, most AI content is WAY WAY WAY WAY WAY longer th

There were medicine shows in the late 19th and early 20th centuries that drew insane crowds. William Kellogg (of Kellogg's fame) supposedly had legendary crowds.

When the first comparison that you make to this Haitian refugee situation is "criminals wear ankle bracelets too!", then, yeah, people are going to throw the racism card. Maybe that's not what you meant, but it does feel like

Putting the whole "criminals" tangent aside, you might want to read up on what's actually happening... They came legally in an effort to bolster Springfield's economy. From Wikipedia: > As new businesses opened and a

- Terms in "quotes" still work for finding results with a certain phrase in them. (the +plus Operator used to be great for this also but Google killed that) - AND and OR still work, as do parentheses. Very useful when combined wit

They've disabled an bunch of useful operators and invested more into natural language search and Gemini answers. Another reason why I use Kagi.

This is basically BDD from ye olde days of DevOps in 2015-2018. (Remember Cucumber?) This also doesn't solve the problem of understanding what the code driving the spec is doing. I'm saying this as a huge fan of BDD.

Sorry but actually what. Flash cards? Games with micro worlds? To understand ones own codebase??? We figured this out 10, 20, 30 years ago. Small, atomic commits. Small PRs. Lots of manually written tests. Documentation, ideally with the PR

Great post. ClusterAPI never got the love that it should. I spent a good amount of time on it at VMware, as Tanzu heavily leverages it for cluster deployment (mostly CAP-A and CAP-V). It's basically kubeadm + the spirit of Terraform, K

I'm finally reading "Careless People." If I hadn't deleted my FB account back in 2023, I definitely would've done it five chapters into reading this hit piece.

I guess it really comes down to how much faith you're willing to put into the answers LLMs are putting in front of you. If you trust them blindly, then the vast experiment improvements are obvious and apparent. If you don't, or if

This is a conundrum I always found interesting. If you know how to use a search engine (i.e. knowing how to use operators and structure a search query), you're almost always able to find what you're looking for very quickly, and i

I care because in most (not all) cases, (a) AI UGC is one- to few-shotted with no concern for accuracy or readability, and (b) why would I read the results of someone else's prompt if I can achieve more or less the same result for free

by nunez 2mo ago
Yep. Almost all of the top results I get from my searches are AI-generated garbage if the content was published after 2025. It's essentially guaranteed now. Whatever; let the people have what they asked for. At least there's an in
