    Everyone says they want the weird more personal internet back, then this is what we get when someone does a weird internet thing!

    Having both floaters and visual snow, there is absolutely no way anyone would ever mix them up, though. Incredibly different experience.

    Visual snow is different from floaters, though.

    My point was more about the positive outcomes from these kinds of fines, rather than about _forcing_ corporate behavior change. If corporations are going to act like psychopaths, l…

    LAN parties were an odd but super fun part of being a teenager at the time!

    I dropped it in to replace zellij, and get better agent integration in the process.

    Makes me think of the DuPont settlement with Rhode Island: https://www.law.com/article/almID/900005544259/ As a result, Rhode Island has some great followup and public health progr…

    Yeah the big driver for it, from memory, was them offering on-site deployment.

    Hallucinations were low hanging fruit in some ways. As someone working on a large-ish complex-ish distributed system that has to be maintained and support customers, it's still ver…

    Not sure why, but reminds me of Fog Creek's Wasabi.

    Originally a lot of HDTV would present SDTV with black bars on the sides. People don't like it.

    I selected vim. No quit available in application menu, I tried `!forcequit` from the command menu and nothing happened either.

    Might want to think about installation. Suspicious of black box shell installations like that, and I'm on a laptop with restrictions. Looks like installation failed trying to write…

    I never liked the term "ricing" with window managers, but this is definitely veering into LLM ricing territory sometimes. And people are getting rich off of it.

    I'm sure it's essentially a familiarity thing, but PowerShell and nushell is way too much typing for me.

    I can't imagine even with the crazy salaries at frontier labs, staff costs make much of a difference.

    The big hammers buy you more confidence and need less supervision. In pure task execution you _might_ smash the ant with a small surgical hammer, but if you absolutely need it smas…

    I think tokio does userspace threads running on a thread per core. At least by default.

    All the cargo deps would be "upstream", and pulled on build.

    Reputation for reliability can be directly impacted by thousands of upstream dependencies, though.

    It's partly a problem because the narrative is still "rewrote Bun in Rust in 11 days". And they didn't do that, if you consider quality of code. And now people look and see "look w…

    Been there done that. My point is that even with Fable being a big improvement, it still needs constant feedback. The loops themselves are a lot better, but it still needs judgemen…
