I've found Claude 4.5 Sonnet to be great with FreeBSD stuff. Very occasionally it'll hallucinate a sysctl argument, but that's been about the extent of my issues.

I've noticed the same. At first, I thought it was Baader-Meinhof, since I recently decided to set up a FreeBSD server after over a decade since I last used it, but it's definitely hitting the news more (15.0-RELEASE comes soon, an

I'm glad I'm not the only person with similar feelings. I'm perfectly comfortable in Linux, but there's a certain ... uncanniness to it that's hard to pin down. FreeBSD (and, I suspect, the other BSDs as well) just

I work in DevSecOps, and devs sometimes come to us with AI-slop summaries and writeups about our own tooling. Any time I see emojis in a message, I know I'm about to have a laugh.

I kind of dig this. It seems like it might look good on an ereader. Might have to upload it to my kobo!

Is it doable on a VPS? The documentation made it sound like it was for dedicated only. I went with OVH for this reason (which was cheaper anyway).

The idea is fine, though the execution seems obnoxious for getting your writing out of your system. The trouble is, depending on what you’re writing, Tilde might be a massive downgrade. For novels, I find something like Scrivener essentia

It’s not super popular, but support is necessary to make it so. There are some well-regarded frameworks, like Vapor, that are written in Swift.

Bastille is very nice to use. You can spin up a jail with a simple `doas bastille create myjail 10.0.0.1` or whatever. Bastillefiles stand in as Dockerfile analogs, if you want to go that route (you have to create the jail, then apply the t

Just two weeks ago, I spun up a FreeBSD server on OVH and migrated a service to it from Railway. Playing with jails, pf, ZFS, and some other goodies has been a lot of fun. Since I (massively) over-provisioned, I also spun up Gitea, Woodpeck

I don't know, Poetry's existed for years, and people still use requirements.txt. Uv is great but isn't exactly unique in Python-land.

The argument doesn't make sense, but I followed the exact same path. For me, Helix is genuinely just more enjoyable to use out of the box, so I felt more motivated to tune it to my liking.

The slowdown occurs on systems that can't hold sufficient charge to reliably power the CPU to full anymore. If the battery can't supply the expected voltage, then the system simply shuts off. That is much worse than slowing down

Splitlines additionally strips the newline character, functionality which is often (maybe even usually?) desired.

Which bugs do you encounter? Orion works nearly perfectly for me.

0-3 is pretty interesting for how strongly you can see the outlines of some individual states. This becomes less and less clear as the numbers go higher.

I also attended one. I liked it, except for the odd way people spoke of him in the past-tense, as if he weren't, y'know, present . But I assume that was this particular crowd being weird. Probably the first person started it, and

Native container support is pretty exciting.

How is it daft when we’re discussing a critique of an American institution by another American institution? “Other places are further left” seems irrelevant to this discussion.

I expect most eInk users use a frontlight, many/most of which are PWM-controlled.

For the people who don’t care about a thin phone, they can still get the Pro with its better battery life. This is just an option. I was totally going to get the Air (I do want a thinner phone), but the screen is way too big. I’m so tired

The N64 rumble pak also had a longer lever to the controller, making that greater weight even more felt. The annoying thing, of course, was that you couldn't plug in a rumble pak and a memory card at the same time. There were third-par

I'd expect that the 15-minute nag screen prompted users when they were most enthusiastic about the app and therefore most inclined to purchase. After 15 days, your initial interest may have waned, or maybe you even completed whatever r

It's very "Mac ecosystem" from multiple directions: a paid-for tool that is often free on other platforms, but also a paid-for tool that provides a very nice UX with easier customizability and features than a "small util

Not the OP, but I interviewed a candidate for a remote position. He was kind of halting in his responses, until he suddenly wasn't. Borderline erudite, and I recognized some LLM speech patterns. I told my manager I thought he was using

"Hard labour for all serious violent offenses" seems almost refreshingly straightforward. Was there more in the actual referendum that was hidden? I grant that "serious violent offenses" is somewhat vague; was it overly

The difference now is that LLMs propose to provide copy+paste for everything, and for your exact scenario. At least with Stack Overflow, you usually had to adapt the answers to your specific scenario, and there often weren’t answers for mor

I use them for API responses/requests where dataclasses/pydantic don't add much value and introduce extra function calls and overhead. It's most common when part of the response from one API gets shuttled off to another.
