You can prepay domains for pretty far into the future (like 10 years at least.)

They'd probably present it differently from human answers. If people really want to be careless they can get AI generated code from copilot or chatgpt on their own already, I don't…

Heh. After a couple years of normal conservatives being told their only place to go to voice complaints is 4chan you shouldn't be surprised that some of us took your advice and lea…

There used to be places for them but they were replaced with immigrants, women, automation and outsourcing.

/g/ is full of intelligent people who could easily do what I do every day at work and are still unemployed. It's not a lack of skills. Getting a job (especially your first) is a lo…

I've been journaling for 11 years and I'm not going to stop any time soon despite the lack of a "like button" or analytics. The way you get free of view counts is by not worrying a…

The bar exam answer key can pass the bar exam, that doesn't mean that it would be a good lawyer.

Meh. If this were an issue people would have been doing it with IRC/Email 10-20 years ago.

Apple's graphical shell is called Finder unless they renamed it for some reason.

I've taught many people to program and can safely say python is an awful first language even for sighted users. Invisible characters being part of the syntax is awful. Scheme IMO i…

One of my coworkers is blind and he's one of the best in the company.

DNS is a public database. Encrypting it is a bit silly anyway IMO. Certainly between the recursive and authoritative resolvers.

"Coding Adventure" is one I'd really like to emulate, I think he hits the sweet spot well.

If people can't choose who they socialize with they'd rather just not socialize. Most of what you're seeing in the US is the result of one group pushing another group on a third gr…

Where I live they use large automatic arm that just puts the bin back down where it was before.

You could probably use aluminum stock from eg Lowe's as rails. I built a bunch of solar panel brackets from that last year and remember being surprised by how cheap it was. McMaste…

I recorded a couple video tutorials doing this with vim and openwatcom C. I never published them though. I kind of want to start a channel for that sort of thing but haven't really…

Most good blogs are part of something else and don't exist for their own sake. If your theory about books were true than the web would have killed them. It turns out having a caref…

No. This stuff is intentional and the reader isn't the customer.

I feel like non-free OSes like OSX and Windows are exhausting. Everything is driven by politics and PR rather than what actually works and it's all made artificially inflexible. Tr…

Where I work our laptop runs OSX but we're not allowed to do any work on it (and it's heavily locked down to prevent it.) Instead all of our actual work is done on a machine we ssh…

People are going to continue to write books and documentation because AI don't replace those (new software won't be explained by AI so it needs documentation and AI hallucinates an…

>EU economy recovers. This is not going to happen for at least a generation or two. European countries are not having children so one of two things can happen: a) They finish the c…

And that's one of the real differences between Twitter and Mastodon. On Mastodon everything is built around interacting with peers. Sure there might be celebrities on but that's no…

They're weird about it, sometimes you have to and sometimes they never ask. It's not like Twitter where you can use the site for an hour before they force you to verify. They proba…
