A dear friend was one of the first people I knew to get an apple watch, that mf will stop midsentence (his or anyone else's) to stare at his fuckin watch like once a minute. Convenient, sure I guess. "Non disruptive" - nope.

I've got a pixel watch and would love to use it for navigation while running but (admittedly without much in the way of trying) haven't stumbled across a way to do this. What do you use to make it do that? Strava?

I put this novella into the same bucket as the altered carbon books. So glad I read them, absolutely packed with weird ideas, but I will probably never have the stomach to revisit them.

True that an interpreted language has a leg up on any compiled language in the arena of compile time, but worth noting that one of Go's primary design goals was improving compile times of massive code bases. Google was drowning under t

Anybody know where that gordon moore quote comes from? A little searching didn't produce sources for me.

I wonder what the reaction would be if the folks beyond the HN crowd understood the extent to which the internet runs on queer / trans / catgirl / furry power?

And the number of times I've searched for something that I saw a while ago but is now gone is way too damned high.

Hello. One people here, and I would like microtransactions please.

Huh, looks like they mothballed it a year later.

Only seems that way. They've been around for over twenty years and AFAICT they have staying power. Youtube uploads from the founder last month. https://youtube.com/@marcinose

It's not different on the internet. If you commit a crime on the internet it's still illegal and it can still be reported to the police. What makes you suggest otherwise?

Yeah this was way more interesting than I anticipated.

A game aimed at children supporting military intelligence is prime cyberpunk material. No doubt fiction beat us to that as well.

Thanks for taking the time to explain!

Having only just learned what DFT is by reading this article, could someone familiar with the field opine on how significant it would be to discover a physical system that conflicts so much with its predictions?

It's not slick, but I've always labeled this as; answering the question they want to answer (rather than answer the question that was asked).

I love this site design. It uses the entire width of the monitor rather than a slender column of pixels down the middle with large blocks of unused space on either side, with a font for my old man eyes. <3

It doesn't really, except I suppose that both are called "databases". DuckDB is intended for OLAP, while Gorilla is specifically designed for time series data. You would never do something like "INSERT INTO users ...&quo

Is "harness" in this context ~= "agent"?

Same. Although tbf this is a defining feature of many of my favourite sci-fi novels. Whenever I revisit the Sprawl or the Bridge trilogies I always notice something I completely missed before.

Intermediate Representation. It's an architecture independent "halfway point" that happens during compilation, in between reading the source code and writing the binary. It's part of the approach that makes it possible f

My primary use case for K3s is small machines, cheap VPS, Pi, etc. Would love to hear from folks who have had success with Talos in those spaces but last time I gave it a shot the welded shut hood prevented me from doing the little tweaks n

K8s encourages thinking about workloads as "cattle not pets". App running in K8s falls over? Blow it away and let K8s recreate it, etc. However clusers themselves often become the new pets. Many orgs do not reach a level of operat
