    Second hand SFF office PCs are super good for this. Machines like Lenovo Thinkcentre or Dell Optiplex. Because there are so many of them (at least in Denmark where I live) they are…

    My boss tried to make me interested in agentic programming by showing me how "productive" the creator of OpenClaw is. All I see is a fast food factory. Sure it's interesting that y…

    Xbox is ahead of Sony on this path. Their studios often, if not most of the time, release physical games that require a full download to play. I doubt that they will go back to whe…

    I don't disagree that this device is very likely too expensive to sell well. But! The price is not insulting. You can built a slightly faster PC for a little less, but that PC woul…

    Yesterday Claude wanted to add a position column to what is a slightly extended many-many relation table. It did this to "make ordering stable". An average enterprise developer wou…

    How are the rules broken? How does Temu fix then? We have rules that should prevent companies from selling broken and dangerous crap. Should I not be upset that Temu ignores those …

    If it was that simple, surely someone would undercut all the retailers that follow the rules - while also following the rules. Temu is just deliberately ignoring any rules.

    The rules that make someone responsible for when a product is dangerous or broken. How does that not add any value? Temu is free to take the same responsibility, but they don't.

    That's the thing with these fines. 19/20 times they make a lot of sense. But even so, there will be people saying "but why not this other org" to which the answer is "Yes! Hand out…

    If you played a boardgame, wouldn't you be upset if someone won the game easily, because they decided to just break all the rules?

    This leaves out the part where you ask the original developer: "Why does this thing do that?"

    That is something we'll need to figure out. Just because it requires some work to figure out where to draw the line, it doesn't make it wrong to draw one. Banks are generally requi…

    Why though? Why is it unreasonable to expect a company to have some level of responsibility for serving clients that are using their platform for illegal activity? It the same thin…

    I use it a lot with Claude Code. It lacks a lot of features, but IMO feels less "busy" than the terminal version, which I like. Very recently Zed also gained support for parallel s…

    I love the search in zed. If it was up to me it would open a new tab on every search rather than reusing the same tab, so that I didn't have to redo past searches. The multibuffer …

    A more logical explanation would be that there are different opinions and those who complain are usually louder.

    The guesswork lies in the "how to poke the black box in the right way", not in the code itself.

    I always hated SEO because it was not an exact science - like programming was. Too bad we've now managed to turn programming into the same annoying guesswork.

    I totally agree, except for the last part where you attack a straw man. I'm not talking about the view from my front porch, I'm talking about solar panels in nearly every direction…

    The fields that the solar farms are replacing were generating food for everyone, including those who live in the cities. 1-2 days per year the whole town has a smell of manure. Tha…

    It seems as though you are antagonizing a certain imaginary group of people that I do not belong to, just because I chose to live in the country side. There was a reason I used the…
