The only thing I'll say is that it's great to see the feedback in this thread applied. It became very obvious to me what the tool is for and an abstract idea of what I can do with …

Doesn't help much because even the standard library bitrots after enough Python releases. I have things I write today but can't run on a NAS that has older Python. No issues like t…

Which of those are evolving at the rate of frameworks? BTW I'm of the opinion that frontend tooling developers should actually try to contribute things to HTML and CSS instead of b…

It's both reassuring and frustrating. Reassuring because they decided to secure IPC somehow. Disappointing because this is such an unexpected failure mode. My scroll direction brok…

Codex for me behaves very junior engineer-ish. Claude is smarter and tries to think long term. A great example of their behaviours for a problem that isn't 100% specified in detail…

Redbook is also the Audio CD standard. Lots of redbooks exist.

The area I live in has homes that remain empty because the investor doesn't need the capital nor the space and just holds empty units for multiple years when they eventually sell (…

It's trivial to enumerate all the phone numbers in the world.

Going from -50dB to -44dB is a much louder change than going from -6dB to 0dB. Human hearing is logarithmic. The dB is measuring ratio of sound pressure level and it's accurate tha…

This is exactly it. The people who get confused by decibels are treating it a unit in it's own right when it's really just a ratio of some unit.

You only really need SSH access on a box to use it as a git remote - no server needed. I learnt this quite late and was not obvious to me so hope it's helpful for you too.

Not really. Downloads is out of bounds and the root folder is also out of bounds.

WhatsApp media lives in separate folder. PDFs that I download live in downloads folder (which you can't give access to for some reason anyway). Music lives elsewhere and so on.

PlexAmp has DJs which allow you to get the song/playlist based radios. LMS (Logitech now Lyrion) also has something similar in MusicIP (not as good as PlexAmp).

Plexamp can surely do bit-perfect playback, not vanilla Plex though.

I'm from India too (but at-least a generation older than this kid) and to clarify: proposed = asking for a date or if he's too forward / self-centered then asking her to "be my gir…

Yes, a lot of ISPs do this even after I try to write to them explaining why it doesn't make sense. My ISP is Airtel in India, they very recently started assigning IPv6 at all but i…

I'm not sure, there's also HOT-updates (heap-only tuples). It's an optimization where data in modified in place if none of the modified columns are part of an index and maybe other…

By paperclip optimizing loop did you by any chance mean https://www.decisionproblem.com/paperclips/index2.html ?

IIRC USA is 110V, not 220V?

> it would be nice to find an easy UXsy way to preview the sheet data and say "select from this range" or "these are the headers". Indeed. Defining the UX when the only UI you have…
