    If this is targeted at competing with git, I agree it’s a useless attempt. If it’s targeted at working alongside git, and competing with the “local history” provided by like vscode…

    The “claude says” is the part this pisses me off about LLM use now. If I wanted a Claude answer I’d ask Claude. If I ask a human I want a human response not a “here’s what Claude s…

    I feel like people believe whatever they want and the narrative changes to “can you 105% guarantee aliens didn’t build them?” I mean even if you could people would still believe wh…

    I’ve always used vim/neovim but fell in love with some of the features of emacs (org, magit, lisp). My problem was spending the time to configure it though. Even with spaceman’s/do…

    Public trackers like the piratebay face a lot of issues with retention. If it’s not mainstream or recent people often don’t seed or maintain it. If you join a private tracker there…

    Generally a lot of them you can get an invite from someone on Reddit or discord. A lot also open up for a week or so allowing people to register every year or whenever a major trac…

    I honestly wouldn’t bother with public trackers. They work great for debrid services with something like kodi or stremio but if you want to “own” or build your collection you have …

    It’s sort of crazy how much changed in the past few years. The only things that don’t run well under wine/proton now I feel like are online games with kernel anticheat and products…

    If you’re trying to customize windows, there’s really nothing that “just works” there either. I’ve found default Ubuntu installs to “just work” better than default windows 11 as we…

    I don’t think they should ban anything that not actually illegal in the first place. But ya if they’re going to “try to protect the kids” at least go for the obvious issues. Then a…

    I’m honestly surprised Nintendo didn’t go after the “looks” of the pals. Like you said besides the “balls” or “spheres” used for capture it’s a completely different game. Sure it’s…

    I don’t understand the vision bet. As a consumer, I want self driving with expectations of it being reliable and affordable. Again as a consumer I couldn’t care any less how it “wo…

    Microsoft seems to have most fooled with vscode.. The only other IDE’s worth touching imo are Jetbrains and they have most likely been hit by the fact vscode costs $0 and is “good …

    Just wondering what do you collect? Is it mainly mirroring things like libgen? I have a decent collection of ebooks/pdfs/manga from reading. But I can’t imagine how large a 20TB li…

    Is there actually any point in using it? My initial thought was they would allow a more “atom” approach while still keeping all the vscode functionality. But it looks like it’s aim…

    Does siri/homepod not just directly connect to your iPhones calander/notes/reminders? I honestly ask this because I never tried though… I use my homepod as a glorified timer, alarm…

    I never understood the all-in approach either. Different tools handle things better. I personally am using a mix of tools with my editors being vim for editing files quickly on cli…

    I come from a vim background and have used vscode and intellij as well. But picked up emacs solely due to magit. A coworker showed me it and I have to say it’s really amazing. Noth…

    While QA and testing is important, I’m not sure you can convince the people only concerned about profits… I think the “release it fast and patch it later” concept here to stay due …

    Where is generative AI in personal AI?

    I know all the generative AI buzz is pretty recent but where are we in having it integrated in personal assistants? I’ve played around with connecting Chatgpt to Siri and Alexa and…

    I can’t answer from rust perspective, but just my opinion. GUI frameworks in general seem like an atrocity, you have QT and that seems like it besides proper native development and…

    You need to pass a road test which they are pretty picky with along with a written test. The written test had a lot of random crap you would never use imo. Honestly not too difficu…

    Do you mean this would be an issue with regards to using their asset store/3rd party plugins for your game? If so how is it really any different from just regular nodejs packages o…

    This is the only rationale solution, I mean education regarding most of physics and math when I took it never made sense to me. They would want you to memorize equations, or work w…

    It’s not fear, Elon at least is looking for time to catch up and compete.
