I rarely bother submitting bugs on closed source software. Submitting bug reports takes a lot of time (to do well) and I feel that it often leads to nothing.
In my case, all the bugs I ran into were things that developers should also run into through normal use of the app (freezes, weird search bar bugs, scrolling stuck, etc)
My taxes are simple; my family’s taxes are simple; most of my friends taxes are simple. We don’t need Inutit making our taxes more complicated than they need to be. I’d rather have free simple filing be done with my government. I don’t need Intuit getting between me and my government. And if I ever have really complicated taxes, I’m sure TurboTax will still exist.
I've recently been looking really hard at NixOS as a possible next-step. (I use Manjaro and am particularly interested in ways to keep my Laptop and Desktop in sync)
I've heard that the documentation can be pretty lackluster at times. Are there any other rough edges I should know about?
Also, if you don't like the new layout, you can get the old one back. If you create an account, and go to preferences -> appearance, you can change back to the old "Vector Legacy (2010)" layout [1]

There are many UI libraries for Rust; I’ve tried most of them, and all of them are radically different in their approaches. None of them are anywhere near as good as most UI frameworks in other languages (in my opinion).
Bringing a UI framework into the stdlib at this point in time would be terrible because the community still hasn’t figured out the best way to write a UI framework and it would stifle innovation in this developing section of the language.
I had always assumed (perhaps naively) that not many people used D and that it was a bit esoteric…? Not to offend anyone. Kind of like F.
Should developers be investing time into learning D?
However, I agree with the author that a private company should not be getting between me and my government. I am okay with TSA as long as it is my government making sure airports are safe. I am fine with paying more for expedited passports because that is a deal between me and my government. I am fine with expedited boarding because that never involved my government and it never should.
This is a situation, like the author said, that is similar to the intuit catastrophe. Paying CLEAR is equivalent (in the long term) to ensuring that no forward progress is made on simplifying and expediting airport security.
Very impressive work!
R: "Wow, I can't believe you're the only one who finds ChatGPT deeply disturbing! It's almost like you're some kind of special snowflake or something. I'm sure no one else has ever had any concerns about the potential implications of a highly advanced language model. Good thing you're here to point out the obvious for the rest of us. Keep up the important work, champ."
Does anyone have any more information about whether or not this person was compensated for their work?
Most of the sources were related and well-done, however when it couldn't find an author, it just makes up names.
Once I trust the tests, I generally trust the code.
Do you have screenshots or did you save the chat log when creating this project? There are some really cool files and I would love to see how your coaxed chatGPT into producing this project. I had success using https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/save-page-we/ to save the whole chat long and then display it on my website.
