Yup, I used TextMate a lot back in the early 2000s, and Sublime from around 2010 and bought a license maybe a year later. To this day I always install Sublime on my new machines, it's the perfect text editor for my needs: fast and snap

AI-assisted coding helps me a lot to churn through boilerplate, straightforward implementations, test writing, exploration of unfamiliar codebases, and other ancillary tasks in coding. It does not replace tacit knowledge/domain knowled

It started way before the last 20 years, the past 40 years have created the conditions for this to happen. Overfinancialisation of the economy while removing safeguards to keep markets functional, like anti-trust enforcement, are the main f

I've been doing this myself but it's been extremely hard to get buy-in from the rest of the org. They keep churning MCPs for deterministic interactions while I have tons of little tools written by clankers, not only for clanker-us

Charging infra would only exist if there's demand for it, if you have a better solution for this catch-22 I'm all ears. Though it looks like rolling out EVs before the charging network existed worked, there are thousands upon thou

It's really hard to tell if you're playing dumb just to provoke a reaction or if you genuinely do not get the point. Can you clarify?

If the USA kept the status quo of being an ally it would never be a problem. It could only be a problem if the USA was hostile so the Danes could block additional bases (which had never happened, the USA built multiple bases in Greenland du

I don't mind the stern-looking armed security or immigration officers, it just feels different in the USA. Being chilly is different than being told to "move", I have never experienced such attitude getting into Schengen, at

For me (not OP) a clear example I can give from a collage of my past three visits: arrive at JFK, get in the immigration queue, heavily armed agents walking around, some ICE agents looking tough surrounding the area, someone is directing th

Wealth is power, you're too narrowly focusing on specific applications of this power (like your mention of Citizens United) but if that wasn't a thing there'd be innumerous other ways for wealth to be leveraged as power. Powe

Whatabout is quite tiring, we are talking about the farmers you are defending as "rational", and absolving them from being the source of issues... Can we keep on topic?

That's the trap I described, it's really hard to tell since price is not a good signal. To me it was trial and error, recommendations, and shopping at physical stores, and like I mentioned as well: it's time-consuming, frustr

That's your attempt at a neologism, I had no idea what you meant until you tried explaining it and honestly it feels a bit unnecessary... Say what you mean.
