iirc, it's a consumer co-op. So think of it as a vote of all users willing to pay for the membership to the service, who (correspondingly) are more likely to be power users/"activi…

yep! 90% of the time if i have a question about a project there's a discussions tab that can take my question with a nearly identical interface to stack overflow's, and I can be re…

the point is well-taken, but i do want to show the bash version just for fun: podman image ls --all | sed 's/\s\s\+/\t/g' | tee >(head -n 1) >(tail -n +2 | sort -hrk 5) >/dev/null …

silly question: what's "world" about what's being generated here? is the an actual abstract representation of physical space (like, eg, a game-engine style scene graph?) or does it…

So, in my professional work environment, which is a complex C++ app with long build times and lots of proprietary domain-specific knowledge, LLMs were worse than useless. Not total…

so i managed to convince my company to try solid on a new project, pretty much on the basis of "this looks like react but solves many of our existing problems with react". since th…

Probably the most equivalent existing open source thing out there is ENet, which doesn't do encryption or detailed stats. If you've signed the steam NDA (which is free of charge ii…

What if you were the person who watched that show N times, and then saw that ad? It'd be a weird feeling, right?

The concern here is revenge-spam: someone takes your email and submits it to every mailchimp default form they can find automatically, and then your inbox is flooded with ostensibl…

This is pretty defineably public record: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Donald_Trump%E2%80%93Russia_do... notably: it's not the GOP the organization that initial funded the oppo, bu…

I would say it's mostly a matter of use: In C you deal with void* or typecasts all the time, whereas in higher level languages it's much less common, either because the type system…

I don't see a transcript anywhere, but here is the full hearing (I just googled the quote and found a link in another article) https://www.commerce.senate.gov/public/index.cfm/2017…

If your intent is to improve the world, and not just act superior, I don't see what this accomplishes. Hear dissent without action long enough and it becomes noise.

it can still be an issue with memory even if it isn't as blatant as "out of memory". The easy example being a datastructure growing over time and getting slower to manipulate and q…

I absolutely agree that our current situation needs to be improved, but looking at the history of media leads me to believe that by progressing past the centralized and regulated s…

yes and no? Unlike a traditional daemon, this isn't a system service that always runs in the background. The IDE (in this case atom) spins up the process and shuts it down when nec…

I appreciate the extended support for LSP, but this seems to repeat the mistake VSCode made of requiring custom plugins for each backend you'd like to integrate. This increases the…

They did add it though, didn't they? What makes this particular case malice and not just a case of overzealous response to what was the largest polling shock this season?

Wouldn't those instruments (I'm assuming stocks/retirement, I'm not an economic smart guy) be implicitly tied to everyone else doing more work then they "have to"? That's exactly e…

One way to think of it is that torrenting movies requires an (expensive) internet connection, where all you need for a DVD player is electricity and some DVDs someone else ripped.

That headline really is something.

Have a source for that? That one's novel to me.
