It's not enjoyable in 80+ with RH 60%+ either. Grass grows pretty well. Too well actually but mowing it stinks. In the morning the grass is still wet and sticky. By the time you ca…

They didn't want me to highlight. They just wanted everyone to do highlighting and post-it-noting. And it's not like there was some sort of actual objective or teaching. Who knows,…

Hard agree on highlighting. I never understood it. Well highlighting and also the post-it notes marking of pages. It's just too much. Never worked for me. I only did it when I was …

This very well may be AI written. Then again, the stuff our PMs output, all pre-AI, now would all qualify as "AI written". There are certain writing styles, which even if you wrote…

That's a fair enough thing to say but then also setting the default to 7 days is no longer a necessity, because security researchers can automate running a new version through an a…

Cat and mouse like the sibling says ;) Like if you start changing system time, I'll keep a log of system time to detect any "jumps" and then "behave normally" if I detect this. Of …

From my own experiments with local, low VRAM model use vs. what I'm used to from using Claude at work is that being good at "coding" is of no use, if you're worse at "tool calling"…

And if every malware developer worth their salt now introduces code to "wait out" that period of time, we're back to square one. This assumes that they employ clandestine enough te…

Caveat: I have not been able to try that model locally, so no personal experience. Running this locally at usable speeds would be cost prohibitive for personal coding use for me. B…

This reminds me of Xiaomanyc. When I first found the channel I was like "wow that dude speaks so many languages so well!". He does not. I can't really judge for most languages of c…

Hah, this reminds me of my "ancient past". This must have been CS 1.4 or 1.5 times. I had terrible internet. 36k modem times, super high (ish - 150+ms at the very least, been a whi…

Exactly, as in, really, will they? Where and at what price, especially across an actual enterprise that needs to deploy them to lots of devs? There's much more than just the actual…

And for the love of reading, please do not bold stuff all the time. It's the single worst thing for reading attention. I can't help but jump from bolded text to bolded text and in …

That and the fact that you can rotate w/ left click as well. Turns out I naturally drag the mouse a little. So having rotate on right click only would be way less annoying, especia…

Not sure what you're seeing, but I see quite a few overlapping lines. One of them easily solvable if you move `addresses` down. It starts with the `orders->users` overlapping `orde…

Yeah they told me the same. But it doesn't work that way. I've had them for months now and I still notice them. While walking, while looking around. While driving. Is it much bette…

Oh so much. Progressives here. The very bottom irritates me to no end during the day. If I drive in the morning or walk around I feel absolutely horrible. Like I'm drunk. Sure, if …

Tap water if chlorinated is not great for the coatings on modern glasses I've been told. YMMV if you're not in such a place. I mix my own spray bottles from dish soap, non chlorina…

Not the one down-voting you btw. Disagreeing is fine by me. I would ask you tho: What incentive do AI vendors have to even try and detect this? It's in their interest to use the mo…

No sawdust is bad. But it's also bad if you cut all your boards into sawdust. Completely. Obliterated. No useful output, only sawdust. % of AI suggestions accepted vs. edited is al…

TL;DR: If it's not cached, does it really matter if it's offline for some time? Long version: If you're so popular all around that you really really want a very very short TTL, peo…
