    I'm torn here. I love that Rebble folks have kept things alive. I also love that Eric underwent the effort to make new hardware. I'm also a bit sad that this is the first we're hea…

    As someone who owns both a couple Vorons and a couple of Bambu's printers, I do think for a lot of people the difference between the two can be "3d printers are my hobby" vs "3d pr…

    They also do recalls. Which I’m certain is more than some cheaper no name brands do.

    Interestingly I just talked to several lawyers who were annoyed at how many mistakes were being made and how much time was being wasted due to use of LLMs. I suppose that still qua…

    My complete _guess_ (in which I make a bunch of assumptions!) is that generally it seems like the Ruby team has been more willing to make small breaking changes, whereas it seems a…

    The pencil company referenced in the article does not appear to have been part of the Mitsubishi zaibatsu however.

    I once had a PM who loved the Pareto principle a little too much, and would constantly push us to "apply it" even after we already had. I got frustrated by this and drew the graph …

    Sure you do! It's how online schema changes tend to be done, e.g. https://docs.percona.com/percona-toolkit/pt-online-schema-ch... describes doing an atomic rename as the last step.…

    I've experienced something similar, but the chair's discharge was interfering with a PCI riser, tripping just over some threshold that would cause the OS kernel to panic and shutdo…

    “All but X” is an idiom in (at least American) English which means essentially “99%”. So in this case it didn’t literally cure his insomnia, but is so close to having done so that …

    The only thing I can imagine here is that many of the games have "dle" or "le" suffixes and sometimes even describe themselves as "Wordle, but...". It seems more likely that it's N…

    I suspect this majority of the court would think social media is perfectly within their rights to do that -- after all, Citizen's United makes it clear the court thinks corporation…
