Maybe I've missed it, but what did you use to perform the actual code changes on the repo?

Huh, TIL!

Absent in Safari though

Better isolation?

Agreed. Which means that Javascript does not have a good parser.

The same is true to some extent for cars (Ford/Benz). LLMs will even answer differently depending on the language the question is asked.

Edit: I cannot actually reproduce this with the automobile question, but asking ChatGPT-4o about the inventor of TV yields different answers:

Asking in German yields Paul Nipkow and Philo Farnsworth, asking in English yields Philo Farnsworth and John Logie Baird

Asking about Radio inventors in German yields Maxwell, Hertz, Tesla, Marconi, Fessenden. In English it yields Marconi and Tesla.

Not an expert but this reads like typical DDR to me

I'm very terse and instructed it to be terse as well.

You don't hear a lot of politeness in an operating room during surgery or on the battlefield either as far as I know.

I use it for work so that's the mood

Maybe I should have clarified more - I'm using a desktop PC, not a laptop

The system seems to go into sleep state just fine, it just freezes when waking up again

As somebody with an Aorus motherboard who has probably burned a few kWh on this issue, I was really excited to try these solutions - no luck. Thank you anyway!

Do you accept power steering?

Apart from all the chicken that did go extinct...

If you think about it, veterinarians are a evolutionary adaptation as well!

Guess I figured out my niche as a SWE: have a later knowledge cutoff date than LLMs

it's a good argument

Erosion of human connection over the internet which may be a good thing

Arson implies intent, leak does not

> "Why" because of all the latent anger and frustration from the mass death and pain of the pandemic. Its naive to underestimate it. How it unfolds, think WWI reparations from Germany.

Why is a lab outbreak worse than a wet market outbreak?

> If we knew for certain that covid began in the Wuhan lab, it would be World War 3.

1. why?

2. that attitude strongly disincentives the discovery of the truth. If that were true I would support a cover up!

- composing a commit message

- anything bash script related

I didn't intend it as a negative tone. It is meant as an observation: while the raw system speed has increased orders of magnitudes, certain high-level operations seem to remain constant speed over time.

The time it takes to booting an operating system, start a program, compile a program or run a test suite seems to remain somewhat constant over my career.

It indicates that the determining factor is not the clock speed of the underlying system but instead the pain tolerance of the users or developers.

What AMD giveth, Electron taketh away.

No matter how fast computers get, developers will figure out a way to use that extra compute to make the build and the test cycle slower again.

Of course it is all relative - it is hard to define what a "unit" test is when you are building on top of enormous abstractions to begin with.

No matter what you call the test, it should be fast. I feel productive when I can iterate on a piece of code with 2 second feedback time.

Public transit is not miserable everywhere. In Central European countries it can be quite enjoyable.

I read it as a personal recommendation to delete the apps, not as an appeal to ban them for everybody

I might just jump in the driver's seat and take over

Very well done, loads quickly and is usable even from mobile.

I love this sort of concept map and I am typically disappointed by the execution.

counterpoint: it's not

you don't have to sift through some indecipherable mountain of information to find a solution

you just have to provide some basic mammalian service like provide warmth or food in a first world country

it can be stressful but it's actually quite simple

galaxy brain: `number` already includes `NaN`

"Non-aggregating statistics" sounds like a fascinating field of research

Would it be better if 500 companies produced 25% of all plastic waste?
