I don't have a dog in this fight, I would be curious to know about the security stuff. Like is screen sharing a massive pain? Or is it "just" a prompt kind of like in the browser? Stuff like global hotkeys sounds unfun tho

My IME issues were so dire I went back to a Mac (well also work giving me a Mac). But my IME issues linked to snaps and the like, not Wayland.

I guess? I mean like 2 years ago I couldn't even use Wayland on my machine with an Nvidia card (I didn't try that hard, though). Like this feels super bleeding edge and in that case I really don't get how this didn't _st

I am very open to Wayland in theory but I legit worry because it's been in the air for years and years and it still feels so far away. And some of the Wayland-y points around things like security just never felt relevant to me. Though

It does feel like Lina Khan's FTC was much more willing to play the part in the adversarial system. Don't necessarily agree with every decision but was surprising to see how willing the FTC was to jump into things and make unpopul

this is what reducers are for. Though reducers tend to make you end up needing to do a bunch of stuff on async event handling which can feel _pretty_ tedious. And if you don't do the tedious way, you often end up intro'ing really

huhm the ars review makes it seem like this thing does worse on benchmarks than stuff like the mac but the test suite in DHH's example goes way faster. Bursty perf perhaps?

My impression is that in Erlang land each process handler is really cheap so you can just keep on showing up with process handlers and not reach exhaustion like you do with other systems (at least in pre-async worlds...)

So people say that they reverse engineer the system to get the system prompt by asking the machine, but like... is that actually a guarantee of anything? Would a system with "no" prompt just spit out some random prompt?

Feel like if you're doing something like this you should just basically maximalize your definition. The fun here is seeing all the nodes, obviously! Maybe then you get into arguments about whether the dependencies were "required&q

I am really disappointed at the new generation of Python frameworks' documentation, which seem to have the same "docs are tutorials + chatty blog posts which imprecisely describe the APIs" attitude of Javascript libs. Two wor

I think you could describe a part of it as COVID-related, though not that much. The trends predate COVID and continued beyond 2020-2021 (really the peak of activity being pulled back in Japan). 2013 saw 4.4k fatalities. 2019 saw 3.2k fatali

I think we do in practice apply 0mph (i.e. banning cars) in some major cities, turning roads into pedestrian areas! 0mph happens! It's obviously a trade between various participants, who have their own interests. 30km/h limits hav

If you look at this 2023 report[0] you can see the following sort of stats (page 34): between 2012-2023 there were the following evolution in the number of road deaths per year: - 60% drop in Lithuania - 50% drop in Poland - ~38% drop in Ja

MacOS has a "apps using significant battery" thing that is quite useful. I think here there's a similar argument for an in your face thing. That way when the battery goes from 60% to 30% you get told about it, instead of when

sometimes you want a cutpoint for a refactor and only that refactor. And turns out that there is no nice abstraction that is useful beyond that refactor.

Yeah my point is that it’s comfortable enough. If you are growing your emergency fund then you aren’t really living paycheck to paycheck right? You’re putting money off to the side. Tho perhaps you’re not putting aside much for, like, trave

People say "don't just blindly use React.memo, fix slow renders first." But like... with referential identity being so cheap, blindly applying React.memo should be a huge win? CostPostCache = CostOfCache + CacheHitPercentage
