I have installed this and configured the API key, it's been three hours nothing is happening for some reason. The app doesn't show anything. Is it because I have a multi monitor se…

Can you enlighten me with some advanced features that you use? I would love to start using them. I have always used iTerm, but never really used advanced stuff.

I have always wondered - what if the utf-8 space is filled up? Does it automatically promote to having a 5th byte? Is that part of the spec? Or are we then talking about utf-16?

Unpopular opinion: Let us say AI achieves general intelligence levels. We tend to think of current economy, jobs, research as a closed system, but indeed it is a very open system. …

For reducing the number of points, I had to do something similar but for an isochrone. There were 2000 points for each isochrone and we had like 1000s of map markers. I simply pick…

I wish more people could understand this. Yes, LLMs help me learn faster, brainstorm ideas and so on, but to say that it can generate code and hence you can do complex things easil…

My personal daily experience with this! I first used vertexai APIs because that's what they suggested, that Gemini APIs are not for production use. Then there comes the Google.gene…

That'd be amazing!

I got really excited to play a custom card game with my friends who are spread across the world. Was looking to see how I can add my own game, but when I downloaded the app to try …

This isn't true at all for OWNERS files. If you try developing a small feature on google search, it will require plumbing data through at least four to five layers and there is a d…

Humanity has come so far and I'm sure it's possible to do it. I'm not saying wealth and power are bad. The ways of getting them are what's causing this. If you can become a billion…

I guess it's mostly a matter of what framework the society put in place. We incentivise economical achievements, optimisations, tech. The common theme is making wealth. As long as …

Why don't you have access? I'm curious

My pixel 4a 5g works like a charm. 3.5 years and still going fine. I used my pixel 2 for three years so badly. I used it as a hotspot every single day and the number of battery cyc…

I suppose it's an over-arching policy created that makes it easier to mandate. If not, Google would have to say - you can enter some stuff into chatbots, but not sensitive stuff. T…

Unfortunately that's true. I think he companies can ask interesting questions that are not in leetcode, but it's basically a game where the companies make up new questions and they…

I hear you and share the sentiment (for the most part). I don't understand what's with leetcode. Granted it's not the best for way to judge the capabilities of a programmer, but th…

That's all not programming. I absolutely hate the corporate working style. The programming part in itself is always interesting to me, because regardless of who sets the constraint…

I don't think anyone has ever explored an alternative here. Transistors came out of exploratory research that Bell Labs funded and as the other comments say, this indeed happened v…

An excellent overview! I always dreaded learning this and your post seems to be a nice way to digest the content! This is probably going to get me to dive deep into some hardcore c…

The is-odd package depends on is-number!

I don't know the mechanism behind this. Coconut is accentuating the sinus infection in my case? My situation (deviated septum) makes me allergic to coconut water?

I used to have pretty bad sinus. I used to take antibiotics for 10 days a month and would be good for 20 days and this goes on each month. After 6 months, my immunity has gone to s…

Funny enough I have been dealing with this situation at work exactly right now. It is insanely annoying to be in such an environment. Obviously, I'm the odd man out for saying a pr…

Another googler here. I don't enjoy the work at Google as much due to bureaucracy, pace of work and politics. I previously worked at a startup and there is a stark difference in th…
