I daily drive an M1 MacBook Air and a Thinkpad X1 Carbon Gen 11 running Arch/Hyprland. Software-wise I absolutely adore the latter, but hardware-wise it falls short of the Mac on nearly every level. Battery life is horrendous (despite

Try as I might, I can't get that to raise an exception. That said, agreed that this is weird. Python makes some really unintuitive choices regarding scope.

I will never be able to square the circle of c suites pushing both RTO and AI at the same time. You can't seriously believe in the "power" of face-to-face meetings while simultaneously forcing your employees to work with chat

I think that that kind of domain knowledge and getting your hands dirty is more necessary when you're actually having to solve real problems that real people pay real money for -- money that isn't able to be borrowed for free. It&

The one in Burbank was Area 51 themed. Huge UFO crashed into the front, aliens everywhere, etc. It was great and is sorely missed.

It really, really isn't. I wish this would stop being repeated so much.

I hate that you’re being downvoted. You are absolutely right here.

From what I've read in this thread, you don't have a ton of power with regards to meaningfully dealing with this guy. As far as I can tell, your only real course of action is to learn to live with him. I've worked with many p

I wanna preface this by saying I'm really not trying to come at you here. This is just a really great microcosm of AI usage and the differences in use-cases, so though it might seem like I'm overthinking this, I'm intrigued a

I really don't mean any offense here, but...why did you ask ChatGPT? What value did that give you instead of just, you know, thinking about it?

It's yet another example of "don't be the last one holding the bag."

I have a feeling they're working with OnePlus. They've lost their "enthusiast" vibe over the years, and officially supporting GrapheneOS could help them to reclaim it while still keeping prices high (or even justifying r

Love the author's mentality. While I would almost definitely not pick Lua (I'd probably pick Go), I like how they arrived at their decision. Nicely done.

This haunts me. I had to evacuate due to the Eaton Fire earlier this year in Pasadena, and afterward had several instances where, despite my best efforts, I definitely breathed in some very bad stuff. I don't think about it much, but i

100%. I'm _very_ hesitant to use LLMs _at all_ when programming, as the speed/learning trade-off so far hasn't proved itself to be worth it (especially given that it often _isn't_ faster on balance). However, one place w

This is the way. I've been living this life for a while now and IMO it's the best way to go in 2025.

Eh, I don't know. I wouldn't paint with such a broad brush here. Regarding productivity/to-do systems: on one hand I agree -- I know a few people for whom it's clearly a form of procrastination and really just need to ge

Wait, other states claim ownership of personal projects made in their own time? How in the world is that legal?

This job description made me wish I was a designer :) I'll be keeping an eye on your site for roles that fit me better, as you guys really seem like a great company to work for. I hope you find who you're looking for!

As I said in my reply to Kent: frankly, if you store important data on an experimental file system and don’t have backups, you deserve to lose it.

Frankly, if you store important data on an experimental file system and don’t have backups, you deserve to lose it. And I have to imagine that those that are technical enough to not only use Linux, but use an experimental non-default file s
