There’s multiple free versions and forcing HDR on isn’t a basic feature by any means.

Not just that but you can use Brightentosh to force it on. I live in a sunny place with big windows and basically use it all day every day. When it turns off my screen feels broken I so prefer the brightness.

I'll give a reply a go - of course we want strong people. That said, we've introduced incredible amounts of weird new things to the world. Advertising, shit food, tech, and a litany of responsibilities. Some of these are very bad

It’s of course on topic to talk about the bigger picture of whether people in general are charged with these specific types of crimes or should be. I hate the whole fallacy callout stuff in general. God didn’t create them, half barely work,

Not really, you’d have to pick a time frame and beyond a couple years not many will be willing.

Safari leads in many, many ways and is a fantastic browser. No one’s updated their priors from 5 years ago unfortunately.

True but the range isn’t really outside of the average range and luxury cars aren’t that uncommon. The deals were because they were high priced but don’t nearly account for the difference. 125k msrp now going for 55k with low miles is reall

I think that only explains some of it, but definitely not all. The difference between gas models is massive. Look at Audi e trons for example which are regularly hitting 70% depreciation in 3 years with relatively low miles. I think it’s a

This isn’t what’s happening though. I see Tesla Highland models (<1 year old, current gen) selling at significantly larger depreciations than nearly new gas cars. This holds across other EV manufacturers.

It’s too bad because the wagoneer is the best designed car in the segment, inside and out for the most part. I have a somewhat bad back and want something that I can occasionally work from, so a big space, comfy middle seats, a wide center

Definitely disagree on most of your points here, I think you don’t touch at all on optimistic mutations, don’t put enough weight on the extreme downsides it enforces on your code organization, the limits and downsides of forcing server trip

Except RSC doesn't solve for apps, it solves for websites, which means its server-first model leads you to slow feeling websites, or lots of glue code to compensate. That alongside the immensely complex restrictions leaves me wondering

I just searched Grok and Grok is both the top ad and the first result. OpenAI is second.

I meant to say code actually my bad, I found it significantly worse.
105.
by nwienert 1y ago
This is so far off my experience. Grok 4 fast is straight trash, it literally isn’t even close to decent code for what I tried. Meanwhile Sonnet is miles better - but even still, Opus while I guess technically being only slightly better, in

Yea the funny thing is that the real lie is that Safari is behind, that hasn’t been true for many years now. The further irony is calling it the “new IE” when in fact it’s Chrome that is far more similar to the IE of old, at least in terms

H1B started in the 90s, when the economy was at all time highs, and since then growth has been less impressive. It is your comment in fact that decided to assume I missed the point, while assuming something that’s almost certainly not easy

Wikipedia is almost comically left leaning (considering what it aspires to be).

The only two APIs you listed aren’t web standards ;) I’d love to debate you on the rest, but it’s a debate that’s been had here at least a thousand times.

Not sure if you don’t know how they define the S&P, or straw-manning.

The question is more are you irreplaceable - is there no way an American could do your job even if they may need more training? We pay taxes, we compete for limited schools and jobs, yet far more people want to come here than leave. America

This doesn’t really tell us much, and isn’t really relevant to H1B either. If we had 0 immigration, all S&P 500 companies would be founded by non-immigrants.

Which API's did they not implement? I really never commented on lock-in, even said it's fine to dislike it. You're fighting an imaginary opponent here. I really just pointed out that Safari largely caught up on web standards.

by nwienert 1y ago
I linked to my source, I think you haven’t updated your priors in >5 years or so.

by nwienert 1y ago
Safari is better than Chrome imo, technically, UX and otherwise, but you're entitled to be mad about lock-in. I just wasn't responding to that part.
116.
by nwienert 1y ago
So you’re ignoring my entire comment and re-iterating the part I didn’t respond to.

Maybe 5 years ago this was a true, they accelerated development and their standards support is pretty good now, better than FF. Again, not counting Chrome's "EEE" non-standard API's, they largely move fast and implement

The biggest improvement to CC would be it using the TypeScript LSP to immediately get type feedback and inspect types. I added the VSCode plugin but it didn’t seem to help, likewise searching around yesterday I didn’t see anything surprisin

100% objective, in fact among better web developers this has been common knowledge. There were plenty of articles, side by sides and benchmarks over the last years showing it.
