You aren't comparing Linux to anything here. Windows has recently been a complete shitshow - so even if Linux hasn't gotten any better (it has) it is now likely better than fiddling around with unfucking Windows, and Windows doing

Its going to be a decade, the slow erosion of Window's market share, and we might already be in it.

FUSE will provide Dropbox in a more integrated way than Windows (eg. terminal) and a cursory Google revealed some projects for Dropbox that do the JIT download you are after - they are old, but I wager still work just fine (an inactive pr

Consider using a user-space buffer instead, syscalls are slow so bonus points for limiting them are on the table. If you want to avoid resizing an array have a look at the vectored io syscalls (readv etc.).

Unfortunately grok doesn't even meet that bar anymore. There was the very recent incident where it claimed Musk was the best at everything, so xAI are clearly not beyond baking in intentional bias/clutching pearls. https:/&#

Github runners are slow. We're using WarpBuild and they are still cheaper per-minute, even with all the changes Github has made. Then there's the fact that the machines are faster, so we are using fewer minutes. There are multiple

I love the bare-bones landing page, many products have landed me as a customer due to that. Do you have IMAP import? And CardDAV/CalDAV? Edit: also wildcards?

I think that icons hold value so long as they have mostly distinct colors (which none of his examples do, so his point stands). At least for me, colors make vastly superior landmark than words do (once i know the interface).

They mean to resell them in a different form: as part of their PaaS or SaaS. Per the article, OpenAI is just hoarding the wafers, not purchasing the final product.

Thanks for the AMA Peter! Do you think there are risks involved with leaving (and hence returning to) the country on a Green Card?

Fundamentally I would be fine with this, the system exploits us so it's only fair to exploit it in return. Practically, however, my concern remains for people who need resources to support them.
