Are you writing code that gets reviewed by other people? Were code reviews hard in the past? Do your coworkers care about "code quality" (I mean this in scare quotes because that means different things to different people). Are yo

There are definitely slightly annoying variants of this of "ah the program does its job in 200ms but takes 5s to shutdown timing out trying to send telemetry data". Especially annoying on CLI programs. I have been unpleasantly sur

I’ve used freezetime (Python) a decent amount and have experienced some very very very funny flakes due to it. - Sometimes your test code expects time to be moving forward - sometimes your code might store classes into a hashmap for caching

there is something bitterly ironic about iPods (and their "sync" system to basically disallow arbitrary loading and sharing of music and "just" dropping music onto it) being now considered an example of an open device.

if you have roads shared with pedestrians and cars (and bikes!) you can build denser cities. I lived real downtown in Tokyo and my street was like "1.5" lanes wide (if cars were coming in both directions one basically needs to pul

I don't believe there are residency requirements to ownership so the people doing that do not need to go through this flow at all. Just an entirely separate issue, though it might be tackled. I do have the impression Tokyo is getting s

If its any solace the screen is very good and the build quality is very high. You also just get a good set of games "for free" as part of the system. I do think it's beyond "impulse buy" for sure, though.

this has been my sort of big tent alignment with AI people. If I'm getting good CLI tooling that _actually works_ (or fixes to existing ones that have been busted forever) then I'm pretty happy. Things that make systems more under

Was kinda curious about the pricing and honestly the pricing[0] seems like one digit less than I expected. 10k JPY for the number, then 1k JPY per some of the various options (stuff like routing seems to be literally "we set up a phone

"jj new" is like "I'm going to make some changes", then you do "jj squash" to say "OK these look good enough to commit". If you work this way you're "always" in a WIP state. And if

yeah interdiffing and being able to cherrypick in a review just there and getting it done is nice. Perhaps a future iteration of this feature will at least allow us to do something like merge just steps of it if they can be reordered.

Is the problem here that everyone wants a different like 45% of the S3 API? Or is it that minio sucked all the oxygen out of the air in this space by being good at this, and now we need something else to show up?

managing deps as a separate project introduces a lot of day-to-day annoyances, especially if the files are actually changed decently often.

I was a bit confused about the Mitterand gov't claim, that seems to be a Hollande gov't thing from 2014. In particular after 2011 (with Fukushima on the minds of Europeans... not to debate how much those concerns made sense), and

France is all-in on nuclear. Their reactors are still pretty expensive. Worth it, but expensive. Each reactor is a huge piece of infrastructure where small mistakes compound. No matter how little regulation you have reworking these giant bu

reading this I was wondering about this. My sort of childlike mental model of satelite imagery of the planet is that we've "covered" everything but does anyone know at what frequency we do get new satelite imagery for places

am I crazy for thinking that the 16GB Pi 5 is just there to absorb money from people who purchase the most expensive version of things? Like really nobody needs that much RAM on a Pi?

Old web stuff is still around. RSS feeds are out there. Some parts of masto are generally chill and filled with people having interesting convos. You don't have to give up on everything to participate, but it can be a space to go to if

I'll bite: how do we take advantage of ZFS layering if not via the docker-style layering? I find dockerfile layering to be unsatisfying because step 5 might depend on step 2 but not 3 or 4... the linearisation of a DAG makes them harde

Please can we just have a 2FA step on publishing? Do we really need a release to be entirely and fully automated? It won't stop all attacks but definitely would stop some of these

Proofs of what? Proofs tend to get generated upstream of people trying to investigate something concrete about our models. A computer might be able to autonomously prove that some function might have some property, and this prove is entirel

Yeah at this point I’d really like for pypi to insist on 2FA and email workflows for approving a release. Yeah it means you don’t get zero click releases. Maybe boto gets special treatment

I've been practicing drawing on my iPad. Not having to use stuff like whiteout and having undo is quite nice. Getting layers "for free" is nice. I've given myself permission to even do some digital manipulation like resi

Even there the "problem" was left-pad being used by one or two projects used in "everything". So the problem isn't that everyone is picking up small deps, but that _some_ people who write libs that are very popular
