The epitome of conservatism.

The ones in the area where I used to live are all missing.

Oh boy this hits home. At this point I entered surviving mode, and curious to see where we will be 6 months, 2 years from now. I am pessimistic. I want to tinker with my beloved Z8…

A web site as old as the internet, and still relevant.

The idiotic rounded corners of Tahoe are so ugly I just wish I didn't upgrade. I hope Apple will make the radius configurable.

I didn't know they skipped 10 version numbers.

> hallucinations aren’t a bug of LLMs, they are a feature. Indeed they are the feature. All an LLM does is produce hallucinations, it’s just that we find some of them useful. Nice.…

The bicycle is definitively the best mean of _transpiration_.

Quite the list of deps (from brew install): dependencies for lsix: bash, libpng, freetype, fontconfig, jbig2dec, jpeg-turbo, libidn, libtiff, little-cms2, openjpeg, ghostscript, br…

I argue that the car is mankind's worst invention, by many metrics.

Which Babel tool are you referring to?

What I want to know is why I'm not reading this in dark mode.

Wouldn't this kind of problem be a perfect match for machine learning? It would have a huge dataset to learn from. Why isn't it happening or what prevents AI tech from forecasting …

No. We "moved to the cloud", everything became a "microservice", put together using existing libs, and I now spend my time trying to figure out why things running in obscure black …

I don't know about Chrome extensions, but there's Grammarly and the Hemingway App.

It looks like outdated shit, and that makes me happy. I worked on CDE HP systems for many years, and I liked it. The fact that it looks bad now is proof that we've come a long way …
