This is wildly inaccurate to the point of being dangerous advice. The goal during a bomb threat call is generally not to challenge, mock, or provoke the caller into a reaction. It …

Soluble fiber in general helps lower LDL, beans and lentils work well too. One caution for diabetics, this meal could be pretty high in carbs for a single sitting depending on port…

Interesting concept. Not sure if I like it more than drag and drop though, but I do love explorations like this. Reminds me of the old days when Flash devs would build some truly c…

Yes, licensing does reduce supply compared to a free-for-all. But that’s the point, it filters out people who shouldn’t be doing the work in the first place. For engineers, the PE …

Found the repo over here if anyone is curious. https://github.com/IRS-Public/direct-file

I thought the same thing of his website when he first hit the scene. Great info, but the design was so bad it made it difficult to read. It was quick though, and today’s reader vie…

FYI I don't think all of your styles are loading on the page. Tried safari and firefox and it doesn't look right.

Thus is just a link to a Reddit post that links to a LinkedIn job posting.

I'm curious to see if anyone here has done this switch on a large project and what gains they are seeing.

I'm not aware of that, but I also lost access to Copilot when we switched to Cursor so I can't check at the moment. That's great if you can because Claude is why people like Cursor…

We’re in the early stages of this transition. There’s no formal hiring freeze, but leadership has made it clear we should exhaust AI options before considering new hires. At the sa…

It's a fork of VS Code that still uses the official extensions, despite that violating the license terms. Functionally, it's pretty similar to using VS Code with Copilot, but with …

I remember when Easter eggs like this were all over the web before frontend frameworks took over. Nice to see the tradition continues.

I’m still going to talk to it like a person because if I don’t then I’ll slowly start to talk to people like they’re LLMs and it’s going to sound rude.

This reminds me of the old military phrase "different spanks for different ranks". The higher up in the chain of command the less consequences you have. Any enlisted person or juni…

All the BattleTech minis have been huge successes. I’ve supported some local ones, like a machined metal wallet, but anything with technology scares me.

When was the last time you tried? I have a 2012 Mac mini that runs it like a champ and has done so for a very long time. I only have a handful of plugins but uBlock Origin is one o…

This is just pilot production is the first of many steps towards mass production. They don’t expect actual production until 2027. It even mentions that CATL is at roughly the same …

Promises mean nothing. A couple of months ago, I was promised a promotion during the next review cycle. This week, HR announced at an all-hands that there won't be a review cycle o…

I do miss user-upgradable RAM and storage, which seems to be absent on many laptops these days. However, I don’t share the same sentiments about the other minor features that have …

Then go read this https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Extreme_ultraviolet_lithograph... Researchers at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory, Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory, and …

It’s because the US National Laboratories developed all the initial technology to enable EUV. ASML just builds the machines.

I put the death of Zip more on CD-Rs getting popular. Even if you didn’t have a writer you could read them. And then UsB thumb drives came in to clean house.

Thankfully the exclusivity clause was finally dropped Nov of last year. Amazon has invested a lot of money into Rivian and if they want to recoup that investment it’s in their best…

For those who don't have the time to read the entire thing. The “Shadow Resources” attack vector, which has since been addressed by AWS, stemmed from the automatic generation of S3…
