Boy that was a confusing headline. I did not realise that fandom or giant bomb were proper nouns.

Also seeing stone fruit growing so easily in Karakol was amazing. Apricots growing along the side of the road, no birds eating them at all. So tasty!

Yep, I already covered workarounds that would be possible with preplanning.

It reduces the risk, it doesn't completely eliminate it, and that's fine. Not everything was to be 100%.

Nah, this would stop a lot of threats. I'm an example of that threat. I'm a freelancer who often has video calls with new clients. Sometimes I surreptitiously screen cap demos or presentations. It would be very difficult to use a

I spent a month in Kyrgyzstan last year and also went to the world nomad games. You do see quite a few eagle hunters around the place offering their birds to pose with tourists for tips. People seem to be pretty into it. They put the bird o

How do you get from "google loses ad revenue" to "android dies"? Even if for some reason Google went bankrupt all these divisions would just be sold off.

>Open Source is going to be the future. I think it would be more accurate to say Open Source was the past. The future is absolutely anyone's guess.

Ah interesting. For me it's a bit the opposite. Socially I'm very distracted by conversation and easily have more than I really intend to. Alone, I take time to consider each drink and almost never have more than 2.

I think it's helpful for apps like this to provide a lot of hints about how to use the tools, which can then be turned off.

> People tend to assume that “the mere presence of other individuals exerts a beneficial effect” that tempers the desire to overindulge when drinking, Fairbairn said. Who thinks that? I have never personally known anyone who drinks much

I also lost my Facebook account a few years ago, because someone tried to hack it I think. Similarly there were no open avenues of appeal. By a big fluke I actually did some work for FB and in the process they unlocked it. But yeah, monopol

This does not seem like a very impressive result. It's using such a small set of bricks and the results don't really look much like the intended thing. It feels like a hand-crafted algorithm would get a much better result.

That's not comparable though, right? I'm suggesting a third party forks the main product.

Yeah, I don't have a problem with that! But since there seems to be a need for AI-powered forks of VS Code, it could make sense for them all to build off the same fork, rather than making their own.

>Unrelated fact, a university ending email domain is enough to prove student status for a lot of software. When Facebook first came out, it was the only way I could get an account.

I had a colleague, also at a university, where the policy was first 4 of surname, then first name initial. Her name was S____ Cuntin. Yes, they actually issued it.

Ha. My version of this is that Jimmy Wales has once emailed me, while I have never emailed him. He was weighing in on, of all things, whether the main page for "Georgia" should be the country or the US state.

Maybe someone should just fork VS Code in a more liberal way, then everyone can build their extensions on top of that.

>Smaller things like ability to open/close the sidebar Are you sure about this one? I'm sure I have used an extension whose whole purpose was to automatically open or close the sidebar under certain conditions.

I dunno, for me Github is better than it was pre-acquisition. Sure, the rate of improvement has slowed a lot, but they did fix some old annoyances. But come to think of it, I can't really think of any ways that it has enshittified. I d

Your comment above reads more like, let's not even discuss the fact that new models of cars are killing pedestrians in greater numbers than before, since pedestrians have always been killed by cars.

Every commercial hackathon I've ever seen was basically been that. The only good ones have ironically been government run. Like you need to use open data or a new government API or something but the rest is up to you.

Yeah, why on earth discuss current social ills when there have been different social ills in the past...
