Is it possible that the fairly-specific term "slop" has ALREADY been co-opted to mean "LLM-generated context which I don't like"?!? Because personally I'M tired of folks using that word inappropriately.

Clickbait WORKS. There's a reason it's banned in HN submissions

> Is it used outside of Sqlite? Not really. It's one of the early _distributed_ version control systems, released a little after git but before git gained widespread acceptance. It has a built-in (optional) web UI, which is cool, an

For what it's worth, they already fail to update the status page. We had an "outage" just this morning where jobs were waiting 10+ minutes for an available runner -- resolved after half an hour or so but nothing was ever post

Yeah, I saw a demo of this in a robotics lab at my local university like 20+ years ago and thought full self-driving was right around the corner. It will probably EVENTUALLY show up, but I'm thinking it's more like decades away at

You might want to throw a CDN in front of this -- the site is realllllly struggling and seems very complex under the hood. Cool idea though.

Sounds like Ada. A lot of the time, once you got your code to compile, it would work.

Normally I try to go with the most charitable interpretation, but this article makes it difficult. > Meanwhile China is adding power capacity at a wartime pace—coal, gas, nuclear, everything.... China is adding solar. Mostly solar. The w

Likely Facebook Marketplace or maybe Craigslist. eBay is pretty rough these days by all accounts.

That's fun! To further prove your point I saw this and thought "yeah maybe 100 PB is more common these days but 60 trillion ops / second seems like a lot" Then I did some googling and it turns out that a single 5090 GPU

I don't have an iPhone but surely you see how the UX is very different between: (a) create new group minus Becky and minus all previous messages, plus every participant has to migrate over (b) "admin" kicks Becky and no one e

They are saying "the win screen shows up after you click to remove the final letter", not "it is always possible"

I didn't understand what you were saying at first, but it turns out that you have to click to remove the final, single letter before the "you won" screen shows. And I agree it would be nice if the game could detect when you&#

Is it always possible to go all the way down to a single letter? I'm working on August 4, and it's proving challenging

I have bad news for you -- those noise-cancelling headphones are "eliminating" the white noise by bombarding your ears with an equal and opposite white noise

LinkedIn's daily Queens puzzle is different than the classical problem in two ways: it adds colored regions which also must have exactly one queen, and it relaxes the diagonal constraint -- queens are allowed in the same diagonal as lo

You mention three different medications here: - diphenhydramine aka Benedryl is an antihistamine with a common side effect of sleepiness - doxylamine aka Unisom is also an antihistamine but these days people only really use it as a sleep ai

Remember that with Towers of Hanoi every extra disk doubles the number of moves required. So 15 discs is 128x more moves. If you did eight in 15m then fifteen would take you 32 hours.

And "down for" something is very nearly synonymous with "up for" something. (:
