Thing is, you WILL encounter refusals with Sol doing anything remotely adjacent to security work. Which for Codex Security is kinda... problematic. Just a few days back, I was revi…

It wouldn’t occur to a Czech speaker to use caron standalone - it’s not an alphabet character on its own. It’s a combining Unicode code point.

Sound like it’s not about removal from keyboard but rather ability to enter standalone? It’s a combining accent character. It’s used to alter other characters (e.g. “c” to “č”). It…

Dropped Backblaze over this when I learned about it in December ( https://mjtsai.com/blog/2025/12/19/backblaze-no-longer-backs... ) and went to Arq. Not as polished, especially on …

The author is an unreliable narrator. The very first thing, the location of the script, can’t possibly be true (the app itself won’t be in per-user support data directory). They co…

You improve this skill by not using LLMs more and getting more experienced as a programmer yourself . Spotting problems during review comes from experience, from having learned the…

The LLM would, under that argument, be a transformative derivative work, which has important fair use implications (that don’t exist in the chardet case)…

Polish and decent UI...

Beta 3 walked it back and added frosting. Beta 4 went back again. As for being "sure" Apple will find the right balance, they never fixed usability regressions in macOS introduced …

That’s security though, not mere bugs.

Same. Large companies keep freeloading and ask for support . They buy a single personal license and share it among employees. And it’s not some small shops from poor countries, whe…

But people treat them as if they could. You can already see them using LLM output as "proof" in discussions...

Major ones are enough. Linux and Darwin (that is, macOS and GNU userspace, really) differ sufficiently that you need to pay attention or limit yourself to POSIX. E.g. sed and wc bu…
