    Using faxes is much more streamlined than the more modern Scan, Email, Print process.

    This is somewhat ironic, given that it was systemd that replaced the battle-tested systems that came before it, and variants of your comment were used to argue against it.

    I tried with Kagis LLM assistant. Without web search: Chat V3 discusses the events: violent government crackdown, human rights violations, censoring. R1 evades answering, stating t…

    I think you are not very accurate about “open source product” vs something like “community led project”. People being able to adapt their software to their own needs by making chan…

    Giving good individual feedback requires effort and is low priority. Those things tend to not happen without requiring complicated feelings to be involved.

    Which direction of contrast is your problem? For me, the small contrast on pages like HN (in particular with any of the gray text) strains my eyes because it’s more effort for me t…

    Maybe, but the pronunciation of the forge part is essentially just the English one (at least much, much closer to an attempted German pronunciation). The jo part is close to German…

    This seems to be a good tagline for a HN audience that kinda clicks a link blind and wants to figure out what it is quickly and move on. But it’s unclear to me why the Forgejo webs…

    > I understand your first language is German. Figures. I assume your argument is: “Everyone who had to learn English as a second language is so used to completely random pronunciat…

    While I understand the utility of separating contexts and making “distractions” from the current context harder to access. Doesn’t better integration into your system window manage…

    While I am glad that you seem to have found a new workflow that you like, your description strikes me as a personal experience. I am aware that a lot of people use searches as a fo…

    The way that this syntax (see bash, zsh, fish, etc) usually work is that these lists are separated by spaces. You can still quote arguments if they contain spaces (or escape the sp…

    I understand this as systemds config being less powerful than using Guile? If so, I fully agree, on the config being less powerful. Maybe let me add to my original argument, becaus…

    So we should give Drew the other half of the keynote to make an informed decision afterward?

    The point in the Article is that Meta used LibGen to train, not legally obtained books from their local library. The problem is that if you and I made use of LibGen and some of the…

    I don’t think this is about lisp syntax. The systemd variant uses one of the universal DSLs for key-value pairs (key=value) and the universal DSL for calling programs (program name…

    Traits in Rust are more a variant of Haskell typeclasses than of Smalltalk traits. The whole FP vs OOP distinction does make little sense these days, as it has mostly been shown th…

    Your argument is essentially: “I have downloaded and watched this movie, but because I cannot recreate the images, there was no copyright infringement involved”.

    You find the first part in your stack that is documented (e.g., make is documented, even if your makefile is not) and use that documentation to understand the undocumented part. Yo…

    If you managed to figure out how to edit the Windows registry, you probably would also be able to figure out how to edit config files on Linux. Navigating to the correct paths can …

    Would recommend to just try their 100 free searches. Their results are good, but it’s hard to have an objective measure. For me, it’s the little features that make it worth it (and…

    If you want to read a bit of Rust community criticism into the Article, I think it would not be too far off to read this as “There are lots of people claiming writing things in Rus…
