Just use insulin pens or even just vials + syringes to manage your BG? I'm T1D as well with a 5.7 a1c. You don't "need" a pump and in some ways pumps make you ignorant of your own disease, like people who "need&quot

Water is handled at the city level, not the federal level. If you have incompetent local leadership, this can happen. Incompetent local leaders can (and have!) bankrupted their cities.

I never said AI code should be "unreviewed". I'm saying that instead of pulling in axios or requests (as a contrived example) to make HTTP requests, just use AI to generate some vanilla JS/Python that has the exact subse

Assuming you disable CGO, yes, the binary is always self-contained. However, I want to clarify a few things. The "self contained" part is only important in that it lets you use busybox or "from scratch" as your container

Honestly I hope agentic AI ushers in a new age of minimal-SBOM software. I myself am moving all of my projects towards nearly 100% vanilla where possible. For example, golang. Why use [insert web framework] when you can just use vanilla for

That's like 90 minutes of exercise a day if you take zero rest days... Not happening for most people. I think even marathon training requires less than 90 minutes a day on average.

Honestly, depending on the repo, I would pay a reasonable fee to get issues or PRs I open seen. No different than paying a fee to add a new game to Steam - raises the barrier to entry and prevents a lot of garbage from entering the fray.

We recently switched from Node.js + Mathjax for rendering latex to Goja ( https://github.com/dop251/goja ) + Mathjax, and surprisingly it worked really well. We did this because the app is already 99% golang, and this al

OP said "The next generation of developers will, for better or worse, grow up using AI assistance to write their code, but none of them will ever become a Zig contributor." You rebutted with (paraphrasing) "no, you can't

Ultimately code is an iterative refining process, like sculpting granite or spinning pottery. You start rough and iteratively shape and polish it. LLMs just rapidly speedup the iterative process. The next generation will be using LLMs to qu

Seems like a solved problem for consoles, at least. On the Nintendo switch you can "pause" any game regardless of if the devs implemented it by pressing the home button which suspends the entire game at the OS level

Pretty much all playdate games could just be enjoyed in the browser. The only thing you're missing is the physical crank and honestly it's a little gimmicky.
