At this point, even when there isn't an incident, push/pull have been so unreliable as to fail about 30% of the time.

I can live with the occasional outage but this is a constant problem.

Outages are one thing, but for the past couple of weeks even when everything is green, about 30% of pushes/pulls just outright fail.

I've been relatively tolerant of the outages, but this is constant and really intolerable, to the point I'm actively migrating projects into our internal company GitLab.

I really hope they can sort their shit out.

Edit: while ! git push; do sleep 5; done

No, but the initial claim was that it was

5000 is the cursor number for people on the cursor version of the store, not the VSCode store.

Has anyone managed to confirm the time that the backdoored version was released? None of my machines updated to it, I am wondering if it was saved by a combination of luck and

Why would anyone go to a forum for AI-generated content when they could just ask the AI themselves?

Why bother with the expense if you are permanently soldering it in anyway?

AND

GitLab is just as bad, just not as big so doesn't get the coverage. https://status.gitlab.com/pages/history/5b36dc6502d06804c083...

And of course many people self-host which changes a lot of the equation (which you can also do with GitHub, but not for free - and FWIW our self-hosted premium gitlab has about an hour a day downtime, which we've been told by the team responsible is an unavoidable side-effect of backing up gitlab).

It's exactly the same as the people crying conspiracy about parts-locking for repairability, not acknowledging the real effects it had on phone thefts and the pressure at the national and governmental level to help solve the epidemic.

I used to have an oven whose clock would display 23:60 before jumping to 00:01!

And servers. Which of course it would rely on permanently to operate.

If you are interested in smart scopes and don’t mind missing direct observation, the Seestars or Dwarf 3 mini are getting pretty affordable (I borrowed a Dwarf to observe the solar eclipse - it came with solar filter - and playing around with it at night was very happy and got me into the hobby pretty deep so far…)

clearoutside.com, which is pretty reasonable at predicting cloud cover, says it gets the data from Meteosource.

…it’s Science Fiction

Lots of unnecessary whitespace, tabs changing colour to be confusing about which is selected…

They hired a new design lead who wants to make their mark, didn't they.

This has been the behaviour when you launch but don’t connect a specific tunnel for at least a couple of years

I had my own “Misaligned AI” incident.

Whilst talking about debugging an electronics project I suggested that buying an oscilloscope would help diagnose a specific issue.

It “helpfully” pointed out a £15 logic analyser would do the job instead.

Traitor.

You are right! Computer use should be taught, tested and licensed exactly the same way of steering several tons of metal at 70mph are!

Using a computer wrong doesn't kill people.

This is the “dynamic key area” in action

Sounds like they hit a wall and are looking to score points for it.

Presumably quietly added default-on because everyone had turned attribution off.

Again, if you challenge it “It came from my harness instructions” and obviously telling it not to in memory is about as successful as… any other instruction in memory, about 60% of the time.

This is a convenient handwave to pretend that they are violating when to the word of the license they aren’t.

Unfortunately, there is a rather large one not one sixth of that distance away (a million trillion miles is actually rather large - 170 kly - approximately double the size of our galaxy)

Most of that time could well be the last ~20%

My car takes 240KW (It still feels insane to be delivering that much power) and 10-80% (56KWh) is about 15 minutes and 80-100% is another 15-20 minutes

e.g. hurting the right people, _even if it hurts us too_

> Archive.org was sued for renting one book on an exclusive basis (unless one would return, another wouldn't be able to rent)

No, this is what they were doing before, but they explicitly started lending out "unlimited" copies, which is why they got sued.

I believe that is "The Joke"
