I experienced this. I only lived in the U.K. for 6 months, but the number of chiefly British phrases/words/idioms that nestled their way into my way of speaking and stayed (20+ yea…

I've had some success with local models by chaining "agents" together in a workflow. Each agent has a different prompt and uses a different ollama model based on what their role is…

Since then we've gotten: position: sticky — which is like fixed but only "fixes" itself once its Y offset is satisfied. Updating the bookmarklet to also check for that, in addition…

Comments decrying or dismissing the disclosure to the public of long-hoarded information is saying that, IMO, and that's the joke. It sounds like a point no reasonable person would…

"No, don't finally release the top-secret files that have had a huge impact on our culture and have led to decades of confusion, distrust in government, and wild conspiracy theorie…

> Afaik bootstrap is getting replaced by tailwind. By whom? Not by me. > Which is actually pleasure to work with. Have you heard of jQueryUI, by chance?

> Something's not right there. I agree. To me, TWBS is just a collection of intuitive components that have been tested vigorously. They also function in a way that way people are u…

jQuery got the Nickelback treatment. Except I really did enjoy using jQuery, and only moved on because "the industry" was and I didn't want to be left behind. Looking back now, we …

Saying it out loud made it click. Thank you.

> it's a little heavy on the ass I hadn't heard this idiom before so I looked it up and I couldn't find anything relevant. What does this phrase mean in this context?

I'm in love, I didn't know I wanted this, and now here it is. With an explanation from the author that touched on things I was feeling but couldn't quite but into words. To ice the…

From where I'm standing, it looks like when Dorsey was CEO, leftist accounts got more leniency and were more likely to not be banned after being reported for offenses—be them legit…

While I tend to agree with your sentiment, this particular project resurrects bricked-by-corporate e-waste—I'd call that a win. Plus, let's have fun while we can. On the next plane…

That mistake is that it's not true. Altman has earned a name for himself in the truth-telling/transparency department. He wasn't briefly sacked for his fashion sense. In the articl…

>karma: 9533 With respect, you're asking me why I care about a feature you have that I don't—that's only achievable by getting more points. The candid answer: because I take it per…

I accidentally corrected someones use of a word on here and got downvoted so hard I was scared to comment for months. I guess what I'm saying is I'm surprised this very honest comm…

In the video, we see the students briefly rotating the model in the CAD software—with translucency on—it looks like the one main stream is divided into many spiral chambers which t…

This is very cool. Discovered Ctrl+Option+F produces a florin 'ƒ' [on my machine] and the format function key-combo check is Ctrl+Option + regular ol' 'f'. Forked it and added the …

Have a look at SiteSucker[0] - an app that essentially lets you input a url and it will suck all the locally linked files/images etc. into a folder. Once you have the "guts" of the…

UNEXPECTED ITEM IN BAGGING AREA If one is buying in a hurry, or just a handful of things, or maybe "sensitive" items at the pharmacy, self-checkout is a nice-to-have. Apart from th…

edge of the galaxy: 'if when that then wherever where while for'

I can't seem to find an explicit save or export option apart from File > Print. Using that, the Chrome print dialog, "More Settings" allows it to be opened in Preview or "Print Usi…

I was confused too, but I'm stubborn, eventually figured out: Clicking "Draw Fast" creates a box with the label "a city skyline"—drawing in that box will render an image to the rig…

> deeply emotionally retarded It's best to lead by example. There are a million other words to use to express how you feel about this. Consider shaking your vocab tree. I come in p…
