I am a bit surprised that I had to look hard for someone to mention Ghostty in the comments.

Every time, over the years, that there has been some kind of headline saying renewables have overtaken fossil fuels, when you look at it a bit more closely there is always a big 'b…

The only medication I know about that some people on the spectrum take are antipsychotics and that's for specific situations, but maybe if you're in that situation life seems even …

I love it, I have been meaning to put together a similar simulation to demonstrate the effects of interruptions and context switches on developers. Something like the following: - …

Fortunately it mentions early on in the article that this is related to an Olympus camera so I'm guessing this has something to do with the OM system's flavor of Olympus's propriet…

The fun part is that in some cases just listing the iptables rules with an iptables -L will cause it to load the conntrack module and the default max for this is very low for anyth…

I think there's probably a case for some regulation to force at least a minimum set of open standards, because that would make it possible to e.g. switch between systems based on i…

When our Fujitsu aircon was installed the installer said it's worth a lot of money to be able to make it wifi controllable. When I looked into what the components cost to make it d…

The thumbnail of the video looked very much like a several decades old apartment building in Spain that I stayed in not that long ago. The whole development really just looks like …

The version I got never portrayed it as something that's sequential and never 'ends' at acceptance and also not specifically applicable to grieving and it's also not scientific. Th…

I would love to see some social networks silently implementing something that rewrites comments in a more diplomatic manner when displayed to everyone else.

I wouldn't be surprised about this when it comes to panic disorder. Just knowing you have some emergency fast acting anti anxiety medication nearby, just in case you need it, can r…

I did the same thing with an alice bot on IRC. It also joined channels and only responded to private messages. It was remarkable how long some people persisted in talking to it whe…

When I used to maintain a GitLab server I used to do exactly this by upgrading almost a month behind their schedule.

Serverless was always around and always had a place. It used to be a shell and sftp account on a shared Linux server where you could upload your html and cgi scripts or php files i…

>By designing products for durability, longevity, and increased repairability They had to set Sarcasm Generator all the way to 11 to write this. I have found iPhones to be the most…

I'm delighted to see the e-ink displays prices coming down, even though it's coming down a bit slowly.

I think what changed their mind was that the market changed. Mailchimp was run like a company that wanted to prevail in the market and not just grow and sell. That affected their s…

I think people who fly tiny whoop quadcopters would find the description of a 1.8kg copter as 'tiny' quite amusing. I'm guessing the primary driver for the weight is the power to l…

I somehow like this a lot. This looks kind of what Windows NT would have been if NT 4.0 never happened, or if OS/2 survived, or if MacOS or Windows went to a Unix kernel in the ear…

The problem really at that time and even with PDAs after that like the Palm Trio was that mobile data services really sucked in most locations where these devices would potentially…

I find this depends highly on where one lives. If you work somewhere where a significant chunk of the workforce are local either by growing up there or graduated there then this se…

Anycast for the DNS IPs deals with most of the problems of clients not failing over elegantly when their primary DNS server is broken.

We use increasingly sophisticated models to make the same mistake they made 130 years ago when they projected the increase of horse manure.

The article itself leads with the conventional media thinking about Delta, but to me it almost feels like it's a hook to lure in both those who follow or doubt the conventional thi…
