    My wife only printed the 6 photo albums because I gathered all our photos from three different Google Photos accounts, a hard drive, and two laptops. And yes, we only look at physi…

    It seems like China is becoming the "freedom superpower" while USA is getting "corporate superpower" vibes. Huh

    There is precedent of Google making changes in light of "security" that break ad blocking Chrome extensions. See chome extension manifest 3. So this concern cannot be dismissed wit…

    Does Huawei not use android or Google play services?

    This looks like something I'd need - AGENTS.md only gets you so far. Does anyone have experience with using memory like this? My main concern is that it can overwhelm the context w…

    Seems like good news - market share of AWS and Azure in EU is huge, so I naturally support efforts to kurb power of such duopoly. But what would be practical effects of DMA on AWS?…

    Spawning processes should not be on the hot path of any program.

    It seems like tsx is a wrapper around tsc for easy compile+run workflow. tsz seems to be a compiler, a replacement for tsc

    Good point. There might be a small advantage if one does not want to give bash access. But general answer to "how do add custom tools like we can in pi" is "you don't". Keep it sim…

    Comment #48166448

    Ok, what about having tools be discoverable from the environment, similar to how $PATH works in POSIX? There could be an env var $AGENT_TOOLS, a string of paths delimited by `:` an…

    Because some auth provider recommended it as the only app to use. While it is a good app, it does backup into Drive.

    Is this useful if I am using pi coding agent? It can swicth between models mid session?

    Forgejo is also OSS, so you can easily migrate git and issues and prs and everything to your own hosted instance, if codeberg proves untrustworthy. Which I can't on github.

    Could the title say "process to install non-curated Android apps"? "Sideload" and "unverified" imply that the collection of centrally approved apps is the default way to install so…

    Why does JOIN get the prefix then? Is it a command? I would assume that it is a GET clause.

    Comment #47023770

    The `:` prefix is an interesting choice. I don't fully understand when it is needed. It seems to always be used at the beginning of the query. But why is it not used before WHERE?

    I like arrow for its type system. It's efficient, complete and does not have "infinite precision decimals". Considering Postgres's decimal encoding, using i256 as the backing type …

    Yea, I have this too. It sometimes reminds me about the thing I was doing before I got distracted.

    I wanted to try tauri out, but i couldn't get the nix dev shell for it working. My suspicion was that they do something too magical with the build process.

    Nice. My gripe with designer apps is that they are online first. I'd want to save designs to files, close to other files of the project. I'd want to open each file in their own win…

    Sorry for being dismissive. I've written a post [1] that highlights the core discrepancy between the two dialects. I like criticizing SQL and having a documented case like this is …
