    I’ve found that when the right cli tools are preprovided / provisioned for the LLMs to get the job done, they tend to do okay. But when hunting for them in the wild, they get a lot…

    I’ve been using a friend’s app switcher because cmd+tab was a bit too slow and not window oriented. But this has been pretty nice for me. https://mwitch.viraat.dev/ It’s also open …

    I was going to say the same thing. Purdue Hackers has grown into a much needed space at Purdue, nice to see the effects going beyond.

    Unfortunately even with these improvements, working in the repo was quite slow. Changes branches took an eternity, and people resorted to a more workspaces style solution. If you’r…

    I’ve seen some talk of replacing etcd with FoundationDB, which could yield similar improvements.

    Ironically in SF it seems inversed. Whole Foods is second cheapest to Trader Joe’s, and Safeway is the most expensive.

    I was looking for this 2 days ago for a new computer setup. I haven’t had a chance to download this yet, but hoping that it has native keybindings. (Cmd+N) on mac for composing a n…

    I don’t see this article actually arguing against GitOps. It just argues that the policies in place for GitOps need to make sense for the environment you’re developing in. Obviousl…

    Eh, I think more optimistically, this is something her and her partner could joke about, and that he got a chuckle out of it. I’m sure more heartfelt words were shared outside the …

    One useful thing I discovered recently about zoxide is that it has a basedir flag, so in theory you scan scope your query to the directory you’re in or based off some git root. som…

    My current assumption is that other classes of assets, assuming technological progress continues at its current rate, will grow significantly faster than demand for land. So the ec…

    A friend of mine built an alternative UI for this, that may be more digestible if you’re trying to lookup individual items. http://plastic.food/

    Running the container on Windows is probably a lot more complicated because there’s no obvious built in chroot + mount filesystem command (at least from memory). I believe they’re …

    Chiming in with a Purdue alum perspective. If you can get away with this, keep doing so, but definitely recommend putting some time into the 59000 / 69000 classes taught at the gra…

    Then how would you type uppercase letters? /s But on a more serious note, it does appear that some people are not aware that the shift key capitalizes letters and exclusively rely …

    Honestly haven’t had too bad of an experience with Capital One’s hopper portal. Normally I don’t care for these aggregators, but 9/10 times the price difference is negligible, I do…

    Like a lot of people in this thread. I was 9 when I started using game maker. This wasn’t by chance, the good fortune of some willing parent who wanted to teach kids how to make ga…

    Sounds like the bigger issue in this case is that it’s not clear to developers in which cases they can rely on DPAPI to be entirely local, which I assume is what’s needed for passw…

    It’s frequently used to describe the problem of calling an async function from a sync one or vice versa. There’s other applications of the term though (pure vs impure functions). I…
