In my Python programming, I have found that ChatGPT makes me something like 10x more productive. From learning to use a new API to tracking debugging, and especially things finding…

Son of a gun! I've been working at SUSE for a bit of a year, and a lot of the positive things people say here still ring true, at least to me.

$4.99 impulse buy. I bought a pdf to put on my remarkable 2 for my next plane trip. I hope that doing it this way doesn't violate the spirit of using paper :)

In my experience, issues like this occur when people project ethical standards onto projects when those ethical standards are not embedded in the license. In my view, if you believ…

I would argue that there are good business to be built on top of AWS and Azure catering to the users of those services, and very little chance that Amazon or Microsoft would pull t…

I pay for ad-free YouTube. I also pay for a ton of extra storage in Google drive. I find the constantly closing down and shifting of services to be a slight annoyance but not reall…

I am so biased this borders on shilling, but may I suggest taking a look at openSUSE Leap Micro? https://get.opensuse.org/leapmicro/5.5/ We (SUSE) have extensive testing and qualit…

I wish we were in the Star Trek universe, so this was "AI will free humanity to pursue science and art without economic concerns" instead of "AI will make everyone poor and subjuga…

I think that there is an active company behind Superset called Preset. https://preset.io/ I don't think it's semi-abandoned. I had a brief interaction with the project in my previo…

Or developers compile a static linux binary for the specific architectures (usual amd64) and just compile all of the dependencies into the app. You download the binary and run it. …

For "reasons" (i.e. I got a job at SUSE), I have been running openSUSE for the last 6 weeks. I like that I don't have to deal with snaps and flatpaks at all. I was able to install …

I used to ask it a lot more nuanced questions. Like if I was watching TV and they referred to some historical event, I might have asked it about that historical event and gotten a …

I went all in on Google home, with the little pucks and also screens littered around my house. My wife and I have both noticed over the last couple of years that their usefulness s…

This very much matches my experience with co-working. When the time spent on calls went over 2 or 3 hours a day for me, my days became a constant hunt for comfortable and private p…

Just for posterity, this is totally my favorite movie. I don't even know how many times I've watched it staring in high school, and, somehow, I still think it's funny. Way back in …

In my experience, LLVMs are not about being provided facts. They are about synthesizing new content and insights based on the model and inputs. Rather than asking it about facts, I…

Years ago when I worked at Microsoft, they had a "pseudo localization" tool, at least for Visual Studio, that would inject backwards text, longer text, etc... It was gibberish, but…

It's complete double speak, is it not? Any commitment to even mediocre journalistic standards would not have led to this whole situation, much less this outcome.

I am a heavy user of Flutter. Even for simple things if I need to throw together a UI for my own use and then throw it away, I default to Flutter simply because I have become profi…

I feel really bad for this seller. This, btw, is why I go straight to merchants and suck up the longer delivery and delivery costs. The effort of dealing with rip-offs on Amazon wa…

This has been very contrary to my experience. We have had a fully EV Kia for almost a year now, and it is the most low-drama new car that we have owned by far. Literally zero issue…

I think the tech stack would whatever is easiest for the specific team you have. The app doesn't seem complicated. The platform that I would like would: - Block links. The platform…
