I don’t think the issue with the exabyte image is progressive decoding, though it would at least get you an image of what is bringing down your machine while you wait for the inevitable!

That’s interesting. I would have said the opposite. I’ve never used any of the social features, but the technical aspects (including integrations) are where the value is. It does break and go down; and GHA are a real pain in the ass. But th

Seems possible to say Clippy is a poor mascot for this and also not be shilling for the establishment.

Many SCOTUS opinions, especially the major ones, are very readable! The justices and clerks are excellent writers. The most publicly notable cases (on things like abortion, gerrymandering, gun control, etc.) aren’t so tied down in complex p

Isn’t part of its creditworthiness how much debt it’s carrying? And if it’s shifting that off of its balance sheet, then it appears in better shape than it actually is.

Also: March is named after the Roman god of war, Mars. This is because March is when they would begin to mobilize armies for campaigns. The timing is chosen by when winter wheat will be ready for harvest, so soldiers will have nearby high-c

Not necessarily consumers. Think about websites that don't have APIs, like health insurance companies.

Braintree says it is 2.89% + $0.29 USD. Specifically priced at one bip and one cent cheaper lol

I don’t know what any of this means! But I’m not trying to become an expert in these subjects. If I were, this isn’t the tool I’d use in isolation (which I don’t for these cases anyway.) Part of reading, questioning, interpreting, and think

The original summary is the paper’s abstract, which I read. The questions I ask are what I don’t understand or am curious about. Chances are 100% that I know what these are! I’m not trying to master these subjects for any practical purpose.

I think Chrome can safely be said to have a track record of long term investment.

This is where LLMs shine for learning imo: throwing a paper in Claude and getting an overview then being able to ask questions. Especially for fields that I didn’t study at the Bachelors or Masters level, like biology. Getting to engage wit

Roo Code is awesome and free and open source.

Copilot isn’t bad. Roo Code is an open source cursor alternative that works with VS Code. I like it more than Cursor. Much heavier than only tab completion though

I like the author’s suggestion of an enterprise build. At every company I’ve worked at, we told internal users to use Chrome exclusively. We could have chosen Firefox (most devs seemed to prefer it), but as the market share numbers bear out

okay, but something like ethnic cleansing is not an "equal weighting of values" type of position. And it is the position of political parties and ideologies. I agree that there are many contentious issues that have pros and cons.

My reason for centralized cloud solutions is also uptime. Multi-AZ RDS is 100% higher availability than me managing something.

In my experience, these are often leadership failures. Many people can generally understand competing priorities and prioritization, even if they might disagree with them. They often lack the context. It's good to understand when to pu

Eric has been a pretty stand-up guy when it comes to Pebble. He could have been content with an exit (though sad to see it wither in the hands of Fitbit => Google), but instead kept the dream alive. He bought it back and made another ref

You’d need to prove harm, which is somewhat nebulous here.* Matt Levine has a prescient and depressing quote about the only recourse for being being shareholder lawsuits: > I find all of this so weird because of how it elevates finance.

I'm guessing it's just harder to dogfood in a way that others can use without all of the other internal-only infra (including dev tooling) available internally. And to get to the point where you could dogfood at AWS scale, anythin

They've gotten much better at streamlining setup and suggesting sane defaults over the years. I hear the GP that there soooo many knobs. I've found that AWS does a pretty good job, like in the postgres compatible RDS case, of sugg

America is doing South Korea a favor. It could ratchet sanctions (see: Iran) and ravage SK’s position and economic power on the global stage without its sign-off.

It takes a lot of centrifuges to refine the amount and, more importantly, the purity of fissile material. By the time you need them, it would take a long time to spin up that infrastructure and iron out the kinks. It’s not a casual undertak

An interesting example of this is the US modernizations of its military industrial capacity by supply pre- and during WWI. There was intense debate in the international community as to whether non-warring countries could supply nations at w
