TBH I think the word is often used without much consideration. So where people should say ethnicity or ancestry e.g., they say race instead, because it is just simpler, not because…

For me it was mostly that these distros overwhelmed me and I could not get into their code. I had to "start small" if you want. Also I encountered troubles regularly because some t…

I understand that. It's very slow pace. I did it bit by bit over several days. But I was also often skipping ahead.

There are some good tutorials on youtube to start from zero. E.g. "Emacs from scratch" by System Crafters. I only started using an AI to help fix issues or understand configuration…

Yep. I also forgot one important point. If you come from vim, like myself, you should probably use evil-mode right from the start and then just get used to a few important Emacs sh…

A bit of advice to people that have the urge to try Emacs. Do not use a distribution. Yes I know.. you have read that before and then you used Doom or Spacemacs anyways. That's me …

First of all I never said these things you claim. I literally said "ignoring these risks is BAD", not that they are absolutely too great or whatever. That must be evaluated per cas…

> Nuclear waste is solved by burying it in bedrock in a location with no groundwater. It's literally sweeping something under the carpet.. At some point in time there will be a qua…

Don't you read while your agents are doing all the work for you? /s

You are better than me. Back when you could mine BTC with the CPU, i had about 2 coins. I found it useless and silly and deleted my wallet at some point :)

There is a shift to software mass production over the last decade(s). AI is now speeding up this process extremely. There will be most software produced with AI and "cog coders", s…

You are assuming that the AGI service is very cheap..

All this praise for AI.. I honestly don't get it. I have used Opus 4.5 for work and private projects. My experience is that all of the AIs struggle when the project grows. They alw…

So why not just merge into one and be 16 times as effective? Sorry for the sarcasm but your calculation is just a wild assumption. How does the US do it? They have a fair amount of…

That could end in an ugly stalemate pretty fast, considering ASML is Dutch.

So true! I was well into my thirties until I learned that people actually can "see" images. I was totally perplexed by this revelation. After some research I realized that this als…

Day 2 starts with a Neovim config in vimscript. Just a heads up for people like me who switched away from Vim primarily because of vimscript in the first place. edit: grammar

I don't think programmers are the issue here. What you describe sounds to me more like the typical product management in a company. Stuff features into the thing until it bursts of…

While a general "crashing down" probably will not happen I could imagine some differences to other mass produced goods. Most of our private data lives in clouds now and there are a…

The era of software mass production has begun. With many "devs" just being workers in a production line, pushing buttons, repeating the same task over and over. The produced produc…

I don't know.. maybe if you cannot control your impulses.. For me Steam sales are great. I have things in the wish list and when the sale is good I might buy it. I always check if …

Where is the win? Life is a mixture of pain, joy, success, failure and so on. Ups and down. How would you know the value of something if you never experienced (some of) the opposit…

I have bought the book months back and I think I recently received an email that the final version was released. Anyways I can recommend it even though I am not finished with it ye…

Schröder is long gone and especially the current SPD seems a good distance from Schröder's politics.
