These are government regulations regarding kids. Nothing new here, we’ve been regulating what you can market to kids for decades. I’m not buying a slippery slope argument. As a parent myself, it definitely helps when you can collectively av

Dude. Let me give you my money. This isn’t rocket science. I don’t want anything to do with Google Cloud or Google Workspace or w/e it’s called now. Let me just subscribe to Gemini or Nano straight up. This should be like 2 clicks.

I recently discovered that Microsofts SSO doesn't guarantee email veracity. Basically you can spoof emails via ActiveDirectory, so if a site supports Microsoft's SSO and doesn't do a second verification, then someone could lo

I think it's worse. The US market feels like a casino to me right now and grift is at an all time high. We're not getting good economic data, it's super unpredictable, and private equity is a disaster waiting to happen IMO. F

I disagree, at least for my own case. I greatly prefer reading ML code than C style syntax.

ML superfan here. I don’t mind lisp simplicity either. Erlang is too alien for me, but maybe once I was used to it.

I think because a lot of sci-fi dips it’s toes in fantasy. Once you invent FTL it’s not much further to a medieval era species of telepathic dogs. I’m with you though.

Neon is definitely way more complex than what I'm talking about.

Honestly I think it's the database that makes devs insecure. The stakes are high and you usually want PITR and regular backups even for low traffic apps. Having a "simple" turnkey service for this that can run in any environm

For me, gleam is a better fit for the reasons I mentioned, but elixir / phoenix is definitely more mature, so I guess it depends what you like and what you want out of it.

I just started a small project using gleam / lustre, and so far I’m loving it. Worth trying if you’re on the fence, especially if you’re into static types, no nulls, functional, ML type languages. Plus beam of course.

It was revolutionary for readability and has influenced a lot of newer languages. That's a pretty good legacy IMO.

Yes I was also looking at OVH. I heard some horror stories about a fire several years ago and a lack of backups though...

I think skills and also MCP to an extent are a UI failure. It's AI after all. It should be able to intelligently adapt to our workflow, maybe present it's findings and ask for feedback. If this means it's stored as a thing ca

I've been eying Vultr for dedicated metal in Canada (Toronto Datacenter). How do they measure up to Hertzner? I'm not looking to get the best possible deal, but just better value than EC2 (which costs me a fair amount of egress).

I think it accurately and succinctly sums up the administration’s stance on clean energy. I’m not sure it’s inflammatory to point it out either since they’ve already said as much pretty clearly. It’s also a double entendre depending on whic

Rhetoric mostly I'd say. The idea being promoted is that clean energy subsidies hurt the honest Joe coal miner (details being very hand wavy). I'm not convinced it's really that well thought out though and might just be about

I would imagine the same arguments for Smalltalk like live coding and an IDE within your production application. So you get some overlap with things like Phoenix LiveView, but more smalltalk-y. I assume it had backend scaling issues, but us

I do as well, with Codex though, but OP is asking for more fine grained control of what's in context and what can be thrown away. You can simulate this of course by doing the reverse and maintaining explicit memory via a markdown files
