I preferred kv-300h for a long time, but recently got recommended lofree flow (underrepresented low profile stock niche). Now thinking about it sometimes. High-profile feels like a lot of work for fingers, unless you learn to avoid bottom-o

Usually it’s procrastination and anxiety escapism, and it’s all automatic. To know what goes through your head you have to reflect a lot and wouldn’t have the issue in the first place if you did that. Reflection is hard and its insights are

I don’t see why it would be hard. Surprising, maybe, if one never thought about a limit of iterative processes.

Talking heads are inevitably talking about AGI, but there’s no public expectation, at least from those who understand the AI/AGI difference. We are in AI bubble definitely. A bubble characterizes blind excessive expectations from an ex

Hardware-wise it was fine, actually, wasn’t the cheapest one and watched some reviews beforehand (now I think it was mi, not redmi even). Miui was fine too, it was generic “android experience” that made me hate it. I avoided sharing details

Is there even an accepted AGI promise for it to be deemed a bubble? The premise in this question seems to be inconsistent with what we have now, afaict.

This yesman attitude is honestly unnerving. We make things worse, because they were worse! Sort of not, but were anyway. That’s an advantage, nothing to see here! Instead of praising the advantages of going insane, let us better make (or at

I’m actually complaining about more “advanced” features like hiding text (see my comment above) or zalgoing it. And of course endless variations of skin color and gender of three people in a pictogram of a family or something, which is pure

The problem is the scale at which it happens and lack of methods-to-go in most runtimes/libs. No one and nothing is ready for unicode complexity out of box, and there's little interest in unscrewing it by oneself, cause it looks l

I'll say it again: this is the consequence of Unicode trying to be a mix of html and docx, instead of a charset. It went too far for an average Joe DevGuy to understand how to deal with it, so he just selects a subset he can handle and

You can do it easily in any language with functions and flow control. Restarts and coroutines are just if-errs and CPS-natured code in disguise. The difference is only syntactic, and there are ways to reduce the noise to manageable levels.

The distinction between debug and release mode wrt my code (assertions, debug logging) was always confusing to me. The experience told me uncountable times that “release” (iow “prod”) is where you want debug information to be produced, ca

Maybe I got AB tested, cause yesterday-ish all was ok. When you watch a long VOD part by part, it looks like watch-close-...-watch-close sequence. Youtube normally remembered where you closed the video and then next click on it returned to

There is an enormous difference between this HTML document and the sorts of code front-end developers write today. This difference is in complexity that gets imposed by buzzwords, but not in the actual behavior itself. Most frontend “code

You should specify better for whom, imo, because it’s a social concept that depends on a setting. What’s better in one place is worse in the other.

Personally I’m fine with simply hiding posts that I don’t want to see or visit. Hiding status remains after refresh.

Guys, just stop watching ads. Ads are so 201x. AdGuard is available on ios for at least a decade now. No, it’s not a separate “adblock browser”. It works as a content filtering rules source for Safari. It does not see what you’re doing or v

Strange, I don’t see any ads in the article. Maybe you turned your adblocker off accidentally? PC choices are obvious, for ios I’m using AdGuard app that integrates as Safari content filter (blocks almost the same as ubo).

Yes, but not doing a numerical work is perfectly fine use of a PC. Edit: thinking more about it, I’d rather use a solar cell powered ble enabled calculator with all the usual buttons (M*, +-, C/AC, <, etc) and a screen, rather than

It will share nuance with non-hygienic macros, yes. The difference here is that (1) unlike macros which hide what’s going on, the code is always expanded and can be patched locally with the visual indication of an edit, and (2) the changes

The problem is that most knowledge work is “a page of code” and largely ai-automatable. It is 90% automatable before AI and is not a problem, it’s progress. Will you hold the same opinion when you’ll get sacked and replaced by some kind
