i also vividly remember the specs of my first machine but weirdly nothing else after. i386SX with 4MiB RAM and a 10MB hard drive

I read your reply as the scenario from GP is unlikely to happen in practice or has low impact. To me it seems you need to make frequent backups of "your" data to have a copy of it.…

True. i didn't mean "not terrible for employees" i meant "not terrible for company goals". Yes, these are intertwined, but assuming not everyone quits over introducing AI workflows…

Well, what you describe is not terrible way to run things. Eat your own dogfood. To get better at it you need to start doing it.

I find these tools super awesome, but i never use them beyond trying them out once, because they don't usually come with coreutils or something like that. Haven't found a way to us…

The value is in leadership, and being able to avoid certain classes of bugs from appearing in the first place. Troubleshooting just happens to be the skill that allows you to gain …

It's even worse than that. Making troubleshooting skills a profession in itself makes reliability a property of a specific person or team and not a property of the system. The form…

I'd pay for news, even bad ones. I see it like a donation to the Red Cross or something. My experience and reasons for not paying anymore are similar. Used to pay for The Guardian …

Can you name a few LLM-based features in browsers that users find useful?

I found I'm ok with the divide. Both can coexist and in our case it works. I manage people and anecdotally I see engineers having collectively more output if they are in the office…

Are you asking because you have the power to implement some of the missing features, or because you will tell me I don't actually need what i think i want. 1) i never could get pas…

You want to censor me because i have a different opinion than yours? I assume you have good intentions and want to advocate for Firefox and have it have wider adoption. I want the …

I recently switched to Firefox and the main blockers for staying on it were a bad experience with syncing of passwords and such a across devices, the UI (i found a nice fix but it'…

It's very subjective, but I won't try switching again before certain things I value in Chrome are available or work similar well on Firefox. You can switch based on ideology alone …

You still need a tangible reason for switching. Maybe we can push, but Firefox would need to sustain the momentum and I don't see them doing it. My pet peeves: sync and app mode. I…

I feel the same. However, how much of this is actually one being faster/slower than the other, and how much is really just subjectiveness one could train away. And now: how much of…

I tried kagi with the free trial offer and liked it a lot. However, i was not converted to a paying customer. I don't actually really know why. There is nothing technically that ma…

I think this is a very valuable comment, and the replies don't do it justice. I strongly agree from my own and my peers experience with the sentiment that latency from zero to runn…

Not convinced yet of AMD an Linux for mobile devices. Just sent back a T14s Gen 4 with Ryzen I wait for a long time because of power/stability issues (S2idle, sleep+wakeup problems…

> these problems virtually do not impact me. I'm confused, what are you suggesting? That Rust hits a global sweet spot already, the complainers are struggling because they are hold…

You probably just killed this "feature" since kagi employees are monitoring this forum :)

The incentive for the company is also different depending if they sell subscriptions or credits/usage. Kagi doesn't have competition in the paid search so space so they shouldn't n…

You are just describing a junior position (more or less). Do you understand the business and can contribute to it? As SRE you can help save cost in production (harder to make money…

Your main point was about salary negotiation (and I don't know much about that) but your example about interviewing is interesting to me: > I spent a full day interview [...] and y…
