    I don't think this was super important given the core goals of the project. I agree that effortless tagged unions are a very valuable feature in a language, but it's also one that …

    An alternative: `zellij` is better is better. With `tmux` I never get the sense that I have "mastered" it. I simply don't know all the controls - I only have a few of my most commo…

    How does copyleft license work in this case? Aren't they legally required to open-source their sources and publish it publicly or can they hide that behind a request system?

    Partly because it's an ecosystem that I'd like to see grow. More people using it means that the other Rust-based projects I use will be better too. Partly because it is the "carbon…

    I so very much want this idea but coded in Rust. Alas, I'll have to try this out.

    And the largest benefit of modern technology comes from the fact that so much of it is "free" (ad-supported). Without ads, there would simply be no effect at all.

    Tiny negligible impact on the industry (Except cut advertising revenue in half, but who cares. What do ads pay for anyways?)

    If this is true, then there's a chance that there's no secret sauce to GPT4 that [Google doesn't already know about]( https://arxiv.org/abs/2006.16668 ).

    I think that whole thing was a bit overblown. RHEL is free for individuals. When I need the stability of a server OS, I'd rather just use the real thing.

    Do people on social media believe that all employees should freely share confidential internal information? Or is it that this is an email from a frustrated person and no one shoul…

    As someone who has been using ChatGPT to code recently - code reviews are one of the worst ways to use ChatGPT. Sure, it'll catch some stuff every now and then, but realize that it…

    This actually reminds me of something I've been thinking about lately. What we call honesty is actually two different things: truthfulness and openness. Americans are probably trut…

    You're telling me it's so stable and mature that it hasn't needed an update in 7 years? Incredible.

    Resnet was when we figured out how to throw a fuckton of perceptrons together and make it actually work. We didn't think networks scaled before that.

    I didn't know communication networks could be described with resistors. Are inductors, diodes, and voltage sources also relevant? How far does this go and why would you model netwo…

    No one says that the barrel isn't necessary. Just that it's there and we should be judicious about when we want to apply it.

    It doesn't have to be significant. Just having 1 hacker in the 100 PLAYERS PER LOBBY will ruin the game - there will be no chance of a legitimate player winning, ever. Games have b…

    Interesting. Maybe it's video games. This was true for me. If that's the case, we might see a surge of female programmers since more women become gamers than before.

    Again, no one is saying women are less suitable. It's a question of how many women are choosing to do this sort of work versus men.
