The existing online mass is what attracted the VC in the first place, same as it ever was. It was mostly privately funded and very much a confederacy (AOL vs Prodigy vs BBS) at the time, much like now.

Funny how Microsoft products tend to instill blindness over time; refocusing on git hooks (and not the UI) can offer some perspective.

There was never a plot to follow; if there isn't a better name for an editor than "vi" (because "ed" is already taken) then maybe they should try getting rid of verbs too to give it more "refreshed" brandi

No, the correct word is hallucinating. That's the word everyone uses and has been using. While it might not be technically correct, everyone knows what it means and more importantly, it's not a $3 word and everyone can relate to t

It's a hot mess too. When you have an American carrier / phone number on an international plan and they shut down all radios in the case of an emergency in the EU, you still get 2G/3G service abroad while everyone's phon

Embrace, extend, extinguish. That's not a Victorinox you're looking at, it's a cheap poorly made enshittified clone using a decades old playbook (e-e-e). The focus on "Sponsorship buttons" and feature instead of fix

Good point! But they are slightly more energy hungry. At these scales I wonder if Stargate could go with one less nuclear reactor simply by switching to non-ECC RAM

The <canvas> tag using webgl offers a lot lower access to buffers than you might imagine and is very accessible using JS/DOM. I've gotten surgical AR devices approved from FDA - if it works good enough for life or death situ

That's already a preset in claude - use the /reddit-recommends-stack command. It doesn't bother to understand and modify your existing code, just completely rewrites it every time for speed and ease of vibe.

I understand the focus on the cables, and as an owner of several Minisforum devices, IME they don't really do compatibility very well (e.g. linux on V3). Their specialty seems to be taking reference PCB's, down costing them by cha

That's a terrible suggestion. A car is 20x the price of a generator while and at least 10x larger. A car can't power an entire household for days on end using a few gallons of gasoline per day, etc. A car is a transportation devic

Huh? The G7 requires an app on your phone. Being slim and hitting muscle when using any kind of subcutaneous device burns like hell. The CGM that wins is the one that doesnt stop working when batteries die. Or piercing the skin.

Gandi went sour when the original French company was forced to open a separate company for the US several years before being sold. IIRC it was related EU privacy but they publicly stated it was about credit card processing.

I agree - because it hints to new development too. To say "This isn't going to work in 7 years", and be taken seriously would be a welcome reversion to current practices against good engineering.
