Honestly? I have a personal blog. It's free. I write because I want humans to read my work, not because I want to provide a free labor to AI companies. This argument doesn't work here.

My company is relatively small. With probably 6 separate redis instances deployed in various places (k8s, bare metal, staging and prod environments) and dozens of (micro)services using them it's probably at least 40 hours (one person-w

Because they're not responsible? We (shareholders) pay executives to manage the companies. This means doing what is best for the company, not committing crimes.

>these superrich people crave respect so much Don't we all? This is one of the very basic human needs. Since they don't need to worry about food and shelter, they focus on social status and entertainment.

So you're arguing that it's s still to early to assess Google, Meta, Amazon and other big tech? Somehow I don't think that's right and EU realized the need of regulation much earlier.

Counterargument: Linux is almost 35 years old (wow, time flies). Rust for Linux is a project started at the moment of biggest rust hype. It's understandable that the Linux maintainers are wary of introducing too much rust dependence, i

Which is a reasonable and clean solution - I love simplicity of ASCII like every programmer does. Except ASCII is not enough to represent my language, or even my name. Unicode is complex, but I'm glad it's here. I'm old enoug

You're either not arguing in good faith, have an unusual definition of "more", or hate school so much that it clouds your judgement. Do you honestly believe that is you were sent to University (or some other educational insti

Sad to hear that. I seriously considered registering, but knowing this I can't in good faith pay money to Kagi. I know it sounds petty, but to people in my country this issue is very important. And for many businesses in the EU it&#x27

Just to add a different voice: I prefer OSM and for me it would be great.

C++ is famously hard. I know C++ for at least 15 years, made a reasonably successful side project in is, worked professionally for 2 years, and I still don't think I should teach it to others. I could probably do a decent job, but if

Except it's the other way around? Some people here claim that they do feel the need for a gun. However, if that's true, then it's surprising that in most counties with stricter gun (i.e. most counties) laws don't agr

Is it? How does it help with radicalization? If anything it makes it worse, since people on the extreme political spectrum will always try harder than the regulars, while companies care only about that sweet, sweet money that comes from bei

Again, it depends. I have friendships that I made over the internet, that lasted 8 years before I even learned their real name. Now we work together and live in the same city. Maybe the times were different though.

Change the way you connect - I have some friends I made over the last two years over... IRC. There's something personal about on-line pure text based communication (with bots/bouncers not being allowed). Like really being in a roo

I'm not in the academy, but I do R&D, I published several times, and that's not how I work at all. I have a broad and open-ended focus, I work as usual on the things I find interesting, then sometimes I see a thing that looks

Not familiar with this idea, but this idea is commonly applied for grant applications: only apply for a grant when you finished the thing you promise to work on. Then use the grant money to prototype the next five ideas (of which maybe one

The crazy part here is that in most other ecosystems 100 dependencies is "crazy high" territory, and in JS it's apparently "we're just getting started". It's known for its approach to micropackaging everyt

I'm surprised by this. As a professional reverse engineering I've actually found LLMs to be terrible at deobfuscation of JS (especially in the context of JS malware). But maybe my requirements are higher and it's actually OK

It is, but did the customers who lose data pay OVH for backups? I use OVH for at least 10 years now, and I never had any backups by them. Despite the rebranding in 2019, they started as and still mostly are hosting providers, not the usual

Did you narrow down that topic to American conservatives? I'm not familiar with your politics but that doesn't sound familiar in context of my country. Also, this is whataboutism. If someone cares about A but not enough about B, i

People who oppose abortion usually consider abortion to affect 3 people, which probably influences their opinion on that topic.
