This specific problem reminded me of Batman.

You may be right, and I've had to live some of that myself with docking stations, thunderbolt, and such. But those moments are the exceptions. In my everyday life, when I need to c…

> She uses Apple’s Vehicle Motion Cues now, too, because they’ve been a game changer for how we balance work with life on the road. So the author is telling us they're having more …

And it does free flight with greater confidence now, leading potentially to bigger failures.

no, I honestly just think it confused itself in the middle of operations. I didn't give the full log for the sake of readability but there's no trick up my sleeve, the story is wha…

Like every one else, I've been using Fable quit extensively the past few days. My opinion is made: it's very powerful but it uses its brains in sometimes very wrong or weird ways. …

There was a thread recently on HN about Claude Shannon and how his papers were filled with clear descriptions and explanations. Then someone commented how they had found an elegant…

Similar story on my end. I asked Fable to digest some test logs to help me figure out a situation, but I had launched VSCode without activation the virtual env in the terminal firs…

I mean... I, for my own needs, which are rather simple, can replace Dropbox with rsync. That's one thing. But yes, it's an entirely different thing to consider you don't need, or w…

That is fascinating how the more knowledge and reasoning we can get our hands on and actually produce, the higher the risk of us, as a species, to become actually much dumber. It's…

I wouldn't show it as an alternative to Obsidian though. It shares MD files with it and both are supposedly about note taking ("supposedly" is for Obsidian, I haven't tried Files.m…

tl;dr; > "What happened the last time that everything changed?" Honestly, I'm glad we hear more of the commoditization of AI, and I hope that the comparison of AI with water or ele…

Have we gone full circle? From the invention of HTML to the rebirth of plain text with MD to the rediscovery of HTML anbrhe age of LLM? The facts that this article needs to list th…

I've discovered typst in the last year and used to build a resume and cover letter template that feeds from a YAML file. After a bit of tinkering and understanding the idiosyncraci…

You're absolutely right.

Minus the AI part, I agree. I'm 100% convinced many fax machines nowadays exist just for bureaucracy and are actually fax-to-pdf.

I tried NixOS and failed miserably. I've pointed at to the Fedora Atomic distros, which are also immutable, and apparently incomparably easier to setup. I'm tempted to give it a sh…

Chuck Norris let death take him.

Honestly, we can do better than LISPs. Just use curly brackets and boom. LISP 3k. You're welcome.

You criticize the initiative because you judge it doesn't have impact on the product or business. I would challenge the assumption with the claim that a sense of acconplishment, of…

I almost systematically use BLUF (Bottom Line Up-front) when I write docs, I think I'll make TABLUF a thing from now on (Target Audience and Bottom Line Upfront) :)

Any kind of documentation has a target audience. Your test is very valuable if and only if the target audience is a total beginner. Of course it's still very hard to write good doc…

Please be respectful to justice engineers. For the uneducated, law engineers are members of the Congress / Parliament / Bundestag / [add for your own country]

Distillation, when done improperly, can result in very toxic substances. It requires care and craft and since alcohol is not only a drug but a transformed product (like LSD or meth…

I would disagree, but on,y considering I think this is not the right prompt to test against. Hence not the right question. While you're asking to find creative ways to get rid of t…
