I mean, the main ethos of crypto is 'antisocial' (code is law, no intermediary, circumventing laws), which first drew people like younger me and other people 'on the spectrum' with socializing issues, as well as a lot of

What probability do you assign to that, especially since CC harness code leaked? Because I used frontier models this weekend (I had 78% of my assigned tokens for this month left, I wanted to burn them before June 1st, ended up with 24% left

I agree with your point in the broad sense, but the example might be bad. If sqlx is an important crate, and not stable yet, upgrading it without reading the changelog is honestly a flaw in your team process. Using the AI to fix organisatio

I think it's fine. Here renting (or teaching) light sails (light catamaran) needs a different license than renting (or teaching) any sail cruiser, including catamarans, despite being basically the same object (boats with sails). Feels

Fruit juice you didn't press yourself have no fibers. Honestly, the 'avoir sugar' crowd is wrong in its messaging, the correct message should be 'increase your fiber intake'. Also an effect of fiber is that it incre
