Sorry, but I think that this is a completely made up problem. I've checked out the referenced Tonsky's article [0] and for me "colorful" examples are much easier to read than his suggested alternative. Also, I had to use

I'm still sad that JSON5 never became industry standard. Unlike hjson, toml and many others, JSON5 didn't try to reinvent the wheel and create a totally new syntax. Instead, they took 2 already well established standards (JSON and

Okay, but how cool is that this feature (hotkey to pass a video, that is open in the browser, to yt-dlp) exists and works out of the box? It's unfortunate, that it was developed in a weird, insecure way, but I think that the fact that

I think that the author is doing it deliberately, to put the reader in the shoes of someone who has a hard time understanding some of the words, and reinforce his point. As a non-native English speaker there are 4 words in this article that

It is very common for vibecoded UI to have significant usability problems on mobile platforms and I find it annoying. I'm pretty sure that it can be fixed by either manual testing and giving the agent feedback or by giving the engine t

How exactly do you block sftp at the firewall if it uses the same port as ssh? From the firewall's perspective it is just some encrypted traffic inside ssh tunnel. I think that you might be mistaking sftp with ftps (ftp through ssl&#x2

No, I was talking about SFTP, not scp. OpenSSH server has SFTP enabled by default. You can mount it using sshfs or browse it using any SFTP client (or any program with embedded SFTP client, which is most IDEs). So, if "digging around&q

I like f-strings but I don't like that there are at least five ways to format stings. 1. %-formatting [1] 2. str.format [2] 3. string.Template [3] 4. f-string [4] 5. t-string [5] What happened to "one-- and preferably only one --o

Are we assuming that this is the companies themselves scraping data from training or is this "agents" acting on behalf of users? Nowadays every major chat UI (ChatGPT, Claude etc) has a "tool" that allows LLM to load web

The question is what exactly are you trying to achieve. Do you want to prevent them from gathering data or do you want to save resources? If it is the latter, then, perhaps, some p2p (torrent-like) content delivery system could help.
