Truly the best terminal emulator.

I would not trust any sw from Russia. Could be a vector for the FSB. I'm sure they have thought about it.

Well, software should not be able to destroy hardware.

Went to sleep, while powered. Never woke up.

No, it was bricked. Connected to mains at the time. Tried to reset it with a needle. Then unscrewed it. All components were glued. Googled around, and it has happened to other peop…

This was a ThinkPad X1 Carbon (4th Gen).

Had my lenovo thinkpad bricked by sleep mode in linux. Never again. Seriously overrated stuff. Get a laptop with 3:2 display instead.

Well, AI does make errors, and never says "I don't know". That is also true of Wikipedia though. I've seen much improvement in accuracy from 3.5 to 4.5. Hallucinations can often be…

One thing I've thought about is whether observations in the present can influence past events. I'm thinking it must be so, though probably only on a microscopic level.

Frankly, i don't think this is true at all. If anything I notice, for me, that I take better and more informed decisions, in many aspects of life. Think this criticism comes from a…

Very disturbing how append sometimes decouples, sometimes not.

A true masterpiece:)

It is not true. The minimum wage was primarily an eugenic measure introduced during the progressive era. The idea was to prevent Chinese and other immigrants from undercutting whit…

Very interesting on how H1B coupled with affirmative action has had major negative externalities on Americans.
