There are way worse choices to fall back on than LibreOffice. Heck, it's the primary tool I actually use in my business. I can tell you first hand that it does not handle all the random stuff that corporate Excel users come up with, bu

I am doing metadata auditing for government documents these days and there are UUIDs in lots of files going back a very long time. I have certainly seen them in PDFs and Word and Excel documents that long predated the current AI integration

That is about the time I started using Claude Code as a paid account at any level. Previously I was extremely skeptical. Overall, it works and it has sorted out some things I would have probably let go for a lot longer especially with the m

I appreciate this personal account. I too enjoy a good book and it can bring back memories. Also looking at your photo, I am in shock with how clean and organized you are. That is one area where my family struggles both because our house is

I do have my personal misgivings on passkeys based on the current implementation trajectory, but am still working out the details before writing on them. If anyone has direct experience with the recovery modes as used by real people, I woul

I wrote this yesterday before seeing the news about the Firefox iOS native ad blocker. Still working through my bookmark management but off to a good start. I wish I had made the full leap years ago.

I have a 1st grader. The public school did tag testing in kindergarten and then the children in the program have a special class on Mondays for the more challenging work. Is this not talented and gifted? They call it TAG.

I upgraded to a 4070 super last year. I ran both cards at the same time for a little bit, but it got really frustrating to keep the wrong card from being assigned to a particular task with llama. I really should’ve taken an R&D tax cred

I am so grateful that I bought my 128 GB ram kit in January of last year for my own 9950 upgrade. We just built my dad a 7000 series to replace his old AM4 (2017 build) and 32 gigs DDR five was nearly the same price at Micro Center that I p

The server is not returning anything. Is this a honeypot that now has firewalled my IP for trying to see that page or is the site just hugged to death?

Spot on. The Criterion of Embarrassment is a powerful tool here; the fact that women were the primary witnesses to the resurrection is a classic example, given that a woman's testimony held little to no legal weight in 1st-century Roma

This has been a source I’ve referred to on and off for years. It’s really interesting to read some things that don’t show up in our everyday Bible. Including things that were considered not canon by the early church. I enjoyed reading the t

Extremely interesting read. I need to go back over it again in detail on my computer not just my phone while holding my baby. A key theme in a future fiction I am writing (slowly) is that all digital data has been lost and the time we are i
