In the US at least, you could already have a lot of trouble with Wi-Fi calling when using unlocked Android phones. And it is basically nonexistent if you use a phone purchased outsiden US.

Sure but your comment does not address all those facts that I said. So many jobs were unstable and remain unstable over the past 20 years.

Good luck getting just scroll bar right with vibe coding. You'll be surprised how much engineering is done to get that part work smoothly.

LOL. As soon as Python 3.8 is deprecated/replaced by Python 3.9+ in most systems, python packages that depend on old APIs become useless until updated. Any half decent software engineer understands this.

I'd argue that the average Linux user likely knows how to use vim for the most basic editing but isn't necessarily motivated to learn vim. Intermediate users will be able to name a few modes in vim and navigate somewhat efficientl

I am not sure about your claim of damaging the PCB when replacing the micro switch -- I am terrible at soldering and do it no more than twice a year. Yet I was able to replace the switch on MX Vertical without any issue.

Not a bad idea in principle but I can't justify purchasing separate hardware just for this purpose -- I have an almost perfectly running machine, and I don't want to spend a few hundred dollars on a separate one. If I have files t

I tried Comet agent for 5 minutes: asking it to "buy a guitar on Amazon" without any further instructions (e.g. acoustic/electric, budget, brand etc), just curious what it is going to do. It ended up adding 3 similar no-name,

I "learned" vim and used to spend time on setting up a vim environment. But it took way too much time to customize these things. Plus installing plugins is nowhere as easy as with vscode. These days I just use vim plugin in VSCode
