It’s interesting, I feel like LLMs are precisely good with niche topics where search engines are becoming absolutely garbage. But maybe my search topics aren’t niche enough.

For me, it’s not even enough. My remarkable is sleeping in a drawer. I totally understand the "it’s just a notebook and nothing else" limitation. Like : ok, you can’t do anything else than using it as a notebook. Why not. It’s how

Yes, same for me. But overall, I was pretty impressed by Fedora Asahi. I was expecting a clunky experience with hacks and bugs everywhere but I'm now actually expecting to use it as my daily driver as soon as possible. Like, there are

Yes but that’s an anti pattern. Arrow functions aren’t there to look cool, they’re how you define lambdas / anonymous functions. Other than that, functions should be defined by the keyword.

Unfortunately the SSO tax isn’t the worst. Most companies pay for it anyway. In my experience (as in IC), the real issue is when the company don’t want to pay enough seats for everyone. Honestly sometimes it makes sense when you don’t use t

Yeah. I’ve been trained to aspnetcore in my previous job. Saying I wasn’t hyped is an understatement. Then I had to work with it for more than a year. I discovered two things : - 1 ) I was wrong : it’s a very good and really well designed f

Which is an issue honestly. Not saying that Brazil have the good definition but it’s pretty infuriating how in US and Europe, you are pretty rarely accused when your company really misbehaves. I mean, we may have thousands of cases of compa

Well, he is still the CEO, the CTO and Chairman. In a lot of countries, executives (which Elon is clearly the top most here) have personal legal responsibilities. Also, if I understand correctly, Musk is playing the game of having no legal

fwiw, it’s a really good YT channel. Nice equilibrium between an accessible discourse and going into every important detail. And nice illustrations with what I guess is from flight simulator.

I really don’t like Macron like, at all. But in France there is separation of powers. No politician, including the president, have the power to make arrest people. Also, in France, when you are arrested, you can be kept in "garde à vue

The thing is that it’s not that important if it hurts the company long term. If the company is big enough, any of those "managers" have plenty of time to make a great career there for several years if not more. imo, that’s the iss

Guess what, the EU never mandated websites to add cookies banners. The reason cookie banners are annoying is because they show you in plain sight how much the site you are visiting doesn’t respect you as a visitor. Worse is that it’s always

I totally agree with you but "being obese" is just a data point. Being obese is defined by your ICM, which means nothing else than being heavier than the norm. Being obese with a balanced diet is absolutely not the same thing than

The whole discussion here is about the environment though. In absolute, changing diet is not inherently hard : it's pretty easy to eat a balanced diet and get pleasure from it. But it's not enough to just say "eat better&quot

Pixels aren’t noticeable anymore in such resolutions but font rendering and anti aliasing may still impact perceived contrast and crispness. Though, on such displays, disabling AA totally is a viable option but it will still feel different.

Interesting, font rendering is the number one thing that makes me hate Electron apps (I have so much more reasons to hate Chrome). It’s to the point that I just can’t use, say, VS Code on a monitor that is not Hi-DPI. Don’t get me wrong, I’

To be fair, I’m really, really impressed by the fact that such a nice software is still a one time purchase and also that it’s so cheap. I mean, it’s an app some people use to work with everyday and make money with and it only costs 15€.

I’m really not defending Apple here. I’ve always been pretty vocal against Apple practices, especially with the App Store policies. But I do think that the situation we are in where any company have to develop an application when the web do

Heh, Safari may lack some APIs, but it’s irrelevant for 95% of apps including Patreon. It’s not like Patreon would be unusable on iOS without an app.
