One major difference is that H.I. often cares for the outcome, so directing them is enough. LLM has no capacity to care, it is just a tool, more like watercolors that you paint wit…

It's "macOS" [1] if you really want to be pedantic. However, it's still "Intel Mac OS X" in Safari UA even on M1 MacBook, so why Statcounter data includes both OS X and macOS remai…

You don't need plastics for that. Warp knitting has been used for the last few centuries with cotton/linen/silk/wool to get stretchy textiles, and there are plenty of stretchy pant…

Something like if ('Bun' in globalThis) ... if ('Deno' in globalThis) ... if ('window' in globalThis) ... could be used to determine the runtime.

You and Symbiote are technically correct, what I'm suggesting wouldn't match The Open Source Definition [1]. But being "correct" matters little to me, what matters is promotion of …

I’m glad that the free software movement existed for so long and achieved a lot, giving me the opportunity to reap the benefits of their work. And that’s exactly what disappoints m…
