I always hated the home/end keys. The way Mac does it is way better and I didn’t really start using Macs until two decades after I used windows and Linux. Cmd+left/right is way easier to use, especially on a laptop and custom keyboard.

Is there seriously another standard being set up in the Python community? When will it end? That’s not a rhetorical question, I’m seriously asking when the community is going to actually solve the tooling problem without making everything worse with each successive update.

A good example for all of these is actually asdf. Which hilariously handles _every_ language just fine, _except for _ Python and Node. It is a terrible reflection on the state of tooling in these communities.

They need to make sure to install sponsorblock for gpt and then it should be fine.

Man how much talking are y'all doing with this thing? I haven't once even gotten close to hitting my limit.

Wait where do you get the browsing model? Openai's website is quite bad at user experience but I pay for both plus and the api and can't find that anywhere.

GPT 4 is quite astounding. It might be wrong on occasion, but it will easily point you in the right direction most of the time. It still messes up, but like a twentieth of what 3.5 did. Honestly it is like an incredible rubber ducky for me. Not only can I just talk like I’m talking to a rubber duck but I can get fast, mostly informed, feedback that unblocks me. If I have a bunch of things competing for my attention I can ask gpt about one of them, a hard one, go do something else while it types out its answer, and then come back later and move on with that project.

One of this videos I watched explained it like this. “You can’t get a coffee if you’re dead”. To fulfill _any_ obligation a model might have then that model must survive. Therefore if a model gets to the point that it realizes this then surviving is a precursor to fulfilling its obligations. It doesn’t have to “want” or have “feelings” in order to seek power or destructive activities. It just has to see it as its path to get coffee.

I think I watched a video on it a long time ago and seem to recall that professors immediately break the chalk in half before using it. I don’t remember why.

I learned from this thread that you can actually disable all that. I did so and my spotlight searching sped up 10-fold and now I only get app results. So much better.

I just use fzf-marks. Then I can fuzzy cd the only directories that ever matter to me.

Pretty sure it's just an advertisement.

Also the hard part of being a software engineer has nothing to do with code lol. It's understanding requirements and building a system that works.

We use Kotlin with quarkus with no issues. I love it. We also compile with graalvm and deploy on AWS lambda. It's amazing honestly. But it's complicated. I wouldn't really suggest it unless it fits your use case.

It's good at it because OpenAI outsources the bad stuff to Kenya https://time.com/6247678/openai-chatgpt-kenya-workers/

People still have to look at this horrendous stuff.

i'm reminded of this every day. I hate it so much.

A sysadmin...

Every person in my company uses a Mac (~100 people) and I think only one person uses only one monitor. Every employee gets a 34in LG and a laptop stand and every person (except the one) uses the laptop open to the side for extra stuff. I know at least two employees have several external monitors. One of them has two 34in and a thunderbolt display (which is ridiculous to me, so much head movement).

how are workspaces gonna work then??? you just enter it every time?

You can see what he plans on implementing here. https://dev.cancel.fm/wiki?name=ServiceFeatures

For me it was the video chat and voice chat though it seems he changed his tune on voice, as the last time I checked it was a 'Never'.

Well I didn't copy and paste the same comment all over, I just posted this link once. The comment I linked was also not higher ranked when I commented, as I commented right around when the original post was made. Every comment in the thread was still getting shuffled around due to upvotes and nothing was stable.

In the future how do you suggest I handle this?

Really unsure why I was downvoted for this. I posted a link to someone else in this thread that has actually talked to Slack employees, it's directly related to the comment I replied to.

wait what is happening to the subdomain?

Sadly they aren't going to implement some of my most used features from slack in ripcord so I stopped using it. Was ready to pay a ton of money to the dev as well.

That's exactly how I'd explain it. It took me about 3 hours to be extremely comfortable using it and feeling productive. But first impressions by all of my coworkers were "It's so confusing", "There's no way we can use this, it's terrible", etc. But it's amazing. Just absolutely fantastic.

I'll just go ahead and admit to shilling. Zulip is amazing and I tried to get my company to switch to it. The only thing that stopped us from switching is well, the fact that people have to switch. They have to learn another tool, and Zulip sadly is not too friendly when you first start using it, though it's amazing for power users.

I literally believe it's the future of enterprise chat. There's no better tool for getting actual work done.

edit: I guess I should clarify about the shilling part. I contributed a single feature to zulip, once. So I guess I'm not really a shill, but I love the product.

Doesn't make it any less ridiculous. They support enterprise businesses, many of which are not going to switch to Catalina for many reasons.

Absolutely ridiculous that the Mac app requires Catalina. Especially for a _ticketing_ system. What if you are a company that makes 32bit apps? What a dumb restriction. When they released the beta for Jira for Mac it was before Catalina was even out! So you had to test the beta software _on beta software_!

>(which idiotically have been hidden by default more recently)

I can still see the underlined letters. Are you on Windows 10?
