I couldn't agree more. Thus far I'm still objectively more productive than all of the AI enthusiasts I've worked with. I think a lot of the activity with these tools is coming from…

You're mistaking a compromised build pipeline versus a compromised source repo that only triggers in some build pipelines. You can do reproducible builds from compromised source ta…

No, it wouldn't. The xzutils attacker compromised the source repository. The build pipeline portions were used to obscure the purpose of the exploit embedded in the source code rep…

(Not OP, but...) I still fail to see the current value in confirming that a reproducing builder also included the same compromised dependency that I did when I built it. I understa…

> US-centric here: I feel that uploading a small percentage of a file as a condition of downloading the whole thing may very well fall under fair use This is not consistent with cu…

> But as a standard library abstraction, it’s too opinionated. It categorically excludes cases where sources form a tree: a validation error with multiple field failures, a timeout…

I lived in DC for 5 years. From 2011 to 2014 and 2019 to 2020. I saw _a lot_ of cops, of nearly every jurisdiction, but never a national guard member.

My understanding of the claim is that the mainframe data is stored in a high fidelity format but some records simply lack a full year. At the time social security was instituted it…

Unfortunately paying for these services to avoid ads will never work. It was first promised by cable TV when they first scaled out coaxial around the country. You paid for TV in pa…

Both TST and Sidebery are leagues ahead of tab groups IMHO. Frankly sidebar tabs just work better for 16:9 aspect ratio because with a maximized window most sites don't make good u…

When I initially read the htmx documentation I was confused because it kept talking about a hypermedia client. The context clues suggested they were referring to htmx but my brain …

The founder of neovim did briefly attempt to participate in the vim dev process. This was a few months later. The most relevant thread is here: https://groups.google.com/g/vim_dev/…

I feel the same way. Legacy vimscript certainly had some warts but vim9script has been much nicer IME than lua. Elsewhere I've likened vim9script to typescript 1.0. It has just eno…

$ du -s -h .vim 22M .vim A lot of that is git submodule history. Specific plugins I use all the time: bufexplorer (though I've mostly rewritten it), ctrlp, colorizer, syntastic, vi…

I don't disagree with anything you've said but I would personally take this line of argument a step further. I think Bram learned from the neovim fork. Neovim bolstered the existin…

This is all correct. To quote from the official description of vim9script: Vim9 script and legacy Vim script can be mixed. There is no requirement to rewrite old scripts, they keep…

This has entered the popular lore but I think it is easily proved false. The thread in question: https://groups.google.com/g/vim_dev/c/-4pqDJfHCsM/m/LSFNhqs2... My read of that thr…

That is interesting to me because that isn't my experience. I just tried the lock screen for example and I couldn't get any of tabs to reload, foreground or not. I'm on Android 10 …

What FF mobile fiasco are you speaking of? I am using FF mobile happily and have been for years. I haven't noticed any issues with it. Was there a business level fiasco or somethin…

As Cosmo magazine is to sex ed.

This glosses over the outright fraud within the banking industry that was at the heart of the S&L crisis. Without the fraud there would have been enough assets and financial incent…

This is a pattern I've noticed throughout history. I really wish there was a popular science book that tried to answer the question: why do humans seem to make so much progress wit…

I'm not necessarily advocating for the approach described in the article but it wouldn't worry me from a security perspective. The security model of eBPF is pretty impressive. The …

One of the biggest issues ruby faces is performance. The productivity of the language is undeniable. That is a big reason start-ups so often choose ruby. Eventually Salesforce or M…
