    Hey look if putting a sticker of Elsa on it or saying it’s for the AI gets the kids excited to eat their vegetables just quietly take the win.

    HDMI and display port are in a similar boat. Putting the spec on the connector would be so much help. Even purchasing them is a nightmare these days because everything says ultra s…

    I think it's a correction, There's multiple levels of interpretation: 1. Don't roll your own crypto 2. Don't roll your own auth strategy 3. Don't Roll your own auth code 4. Don't h…

    “In the interest of quelling rumors and speculation, I can confirm this is the basic idea; lean focus (and definitely not an evil acquisition). It's sadly just unfortunate harsh bu…

    F# also has substantially better type inference so you don't need to write the types out everywhere, type aliases are first class too so you can easily write out some helper types …

    I'll defend her on this one somewhat, Github has no exemption as written and she's doing her job. It's just another layer in the stupidity of this all that GitHub would be blocked …

    > Returns a `String` instead of a type which disallows the formulation of the problematic `assertEquals` to begin with. I'm not sure what the best attribution would be but "Make il…

    Works fine in AU settings too. It's not as good as google at knowing where you are (gee I wonder why) but if I search Bahn Mi the results as good as google. Results for something n…

    And more better? I'm not sure either. In all these examples I feel something must be very wrong with the data model if you're conditionally assigning 3 levels down. At least the pr…

    Given the quality of some of that combo I’ve seen vomited out, it’s technical dismerit. I wonder if you’re better off with something critical mass enough that an LLM can correctly …

    Silverblue is great but regular Fedora is worth a look too if you don't want to deal with the teething issues of managing all your dev-tools with Silverblue's immutable setup, gran…

    Leavener example might be genuine tweak because they thought it would be better but it could easily be cheapening of ingredients which is a problem with premade mixes too. The box …
