    I clicked through and it showed Qwen at the top at 55.4 compared to 55.3 for Opus Max. I have a screenshot. Then I clicked away and back, and now it goes Qwen second, with 58.4, to…

    Looks like the default chat template was updated on HF to enable this by default shortly after you posted this :-)

    > A flag called DO_NOT_TRACK sounds like a good idea, but also suggests the default is CONSENT_TO_TRACK=1, and I find that creepy. It could also be used to prevent showing an opt-i…

    Reminds me of a bug in PostSharp.. After making some changes our app would throw a NullReferenceException Mondays. It turned out to be a bug in some optimisation, but it only occur…

    Just private repos. When you look at the GH pages section it says "Make this repo public to enable GH Pages" or something. Your existing site still serves, but it doesn't build any…

    Working on a separate branch may still require periodically bringing in changes from master (eg. to resolve conflicts). The options are either a) a merge commit or b) a rebase. A r…

    Comment #19480942

    It's fairly common to do `git push --force` (or hopefully `--force-with-lease`) after operations like rebasing. This overwrites the remote history, so can easily lose work. Many pe…

    I downgraded too, and noticed GitHub Pages stopped working (the content is still there, but they don't rebuild - although they did for a little while after downgrading). It is clea…

    Did you use a "maths mistake" in HN to get yourself here? ;-)

    My colleagues (and probably twitter followers) are always sick of me ranting about stuff like this. A few years ago I decided to compile screenshots I'd posted on twitter in the pr…

    I tend to prefer subscriptions for things where what I'm consuming is somewhat throwaway; so things like TV, films, books (things I'd never want to revisit/rewatch). I don't prefer…

    Even if we choose not to have things because they're expensive, it doesn't mean we should not complain about the prices. Companies make changes based on feedback so if there's good…

    Just because a large percentage won't pay doesn't mean that putting the price high will maximise income. It's possible that at $10/month they'd get 5x the signups. That said, incre…
