What’s the equivalent term for “safety” that’s used by others?

Chicago does it one way and AP does it the other. I definitely prefer it un-spaced, though, personally.

At no point did (or will) I defend the surveillance state.

Paintballs are even better, environmentally and effort-wise. Especially if the propellant tank is pressurized using a solar powered compressor. (Theoretically, of course. I wouldn’…

My default layout has function keys as basically an "fn" key plus the appropriate number. I thought I was going to miss the dedicated keys way more than I do in practice. If I were…

I love my moonlander, don't get me wrong, but I've also recently gotten a RealForce R3, and I love it, too. Very nice for a daily driver work keeb.

Not within the given time period. Only two there.

What if I told you that prison is also corporal punishment?

Nah… 2.5x diff. :P

That was two $500/mo servers, not $2500/mo.

The hole (like in IRL golf) has a flag in it. :) The Overview button helps get an idea of where to go.

Therein lies the rub: they didn't buy them... They pirated digital copies of them. See, e.g.: https://www.theatlantic.com/technology/archive/2025/03/libge...

I haven’t had that yet. I tried again this week, and CoPilot Plan Mode read the same 5-line markdown file 18 times over the course of 5 minutes of churning on a simple request, the…

Nah… they killed WMR in it, which I need for the only reason I’m running Windows in the first place: iRacing in VR.

Good, Fast, Cheap. Pick any two.

That sounds like a your-system issue. I hit Win+E (admittedly on an old Win10 box) and it instantly pops up an explorer window.

They literally can’t go full-transparency. I know a high-level insider, and the fact is that even the folks implementing things don’t actually know how it works, only that it does,…

…which is why it’s led to more than zero suicides.

That is a management failure. And a management failure should not result in unpaid (slave) labor.

This is an inherently human problem. Those are exceedingly difficult to solve via technology.

No. Management will take and take and take during “crunch time” then immediately layoff large chunks of staff before they give anything back. It’s happened scores of times. No comp…

Easy: No one should do unpaid labor. Period. “Crunch time” has traditionally been deployed by games management as a license to free slave labor from game developers. Failures of ma…

Nono, parent was asking “They’re bad and inefficient at that, so why have an LLM do math? Why not just use some code and the CPU/GPU that’s already good and efficient at basic math…

Heh… Wait ‘til I tell him that his beloved macOS is Unix underneath.

Out of pure curiosity, what do you “very much dislike” about it?
