Oh for sure. Just look at the "Author" page. It says he started in March 2026 on this. Which means last month he pointed Claude to the Notepad++ repo and said "make a native port of this to macOS".

Yes, don't give a crap about doing it right so all your costs instead move into support and maintenance (which in this analogy is healthcare)

Yep and I loved when C# introduced it. I worked on a system in C# that predated async/await and had to use callbacks to make the asynchronous code work. It was a mess of overnested code and poor exception handling, since once the code

Right, but if it's not actually USB-C, at best you're looking at the device not working when plugged into a proper USB-C power supply. At worst you're facing fried electronics.

Ah that's a fun misuse of USB ports. The companies will often even dodge issues with the USB-IF by labeling the ports as Type C and letting the customer's mind fill in the word USB. I wish these devices would just use barrel jacks

I can't tell if this is a trick question that has something to do with a quirk of USB running multiple lanes in parallel to get higher speeds. Because if not then it's the same as any specification for connecting devices that allo

Hasn't there been reporting recently that Debian development is struggling with a lack of maintainers?

That's what some people love about it. Gives them 2 clipboards. Personally I think copying into a shared space without an explicit action to do so is terrible from a security perspective, so getting rid of middle click paste by default

It's just too bad the subsidized costs mean they won't actually feel any real punishment for their failure. Like normally time wasted on its own is enough of a punishment for making a poor decision, but they're not even doing

I also don't find that caffeine wakes me up or keeps me alert. I used to have it a ton because I like the taste but then mostly stopped because I was having some anxiety issues and wanted to be sure caffeine wasn't a factor. Stopp

One early in the morning, one maybe a bit before lunch, and one in the afternoon. Doesn't seem too out there. And you probably approach 5 cups if you're normalizing the size of a cup and seeing that people generally get bigger cup

You don't have to be smart to be elected. You have to be a good liar. And it's really easy to be a good liar when you have gotten so deep into bullshitting that you believe your own lies. Also, being useful to the right people hel

Any incidents of looting or fires? The protests were just an excuse for people to steal and destroy. Nothing bad happens? The protest was just a cute little parade. They just come up with excuses to dismiss protests because it's inconv

I agree. Given that there's only a single dragon type evolutionary line in gen 1 and that it's the last in the Pokedex before Mewtwo, I suspect dragon wasn't even one of their possible types when they designed Gyarados.

Gyarados is a flying type but I think it may be accurate that it can't actually fly. The only flying moves it can learn in any generation are Hurricane and Bounce (Bounce does send the user up into the air for a turn but the implicatio

I wonder if people are finally catching on. I feel like I hear less of "I add 'reddit' to all my searches" than I used to. The reliability of reddit comments has been questionable even before LLMs. Because people trying

Seriously, the reporting on that was so terribly biased that many people still think it was a frivolous lawsuit.

I found it very unfun. You end up in dungeons with a subset of the abilities you're used to. It felt especially bad, when leveling, if I queued for a random dungeon and got into a lower level one shortly after acquiring a new ability.

Don't forget the 4th way they get screwed which that the AI trained on the books is spitting out a flood of new books that push the real authors out.

I think they understand that the people running businesses are going to look at this vs a human who uses Figma and realize how much more cost and time efficient it is to pay for a machine than a human.

Obsidian shows a warning about this. But the only issue it's pointing out is that mixing Obsidian's built-in sync with something that syncs your files is likely to cause problems. Otherwise it's a perfectly safe and normal wa

How can people ever discuss something in public fora if spoilers have to be eternally avoided? Keep in mind, people often disagree on what even crosses the line into being a spoiler.
