Skywise is basically a re-branded Palantir Foundry, and Palantir’s not exactly a big believer in avoiding US tech…

Did you look at them, or did you just tell Claude to look at them? /s Seriously, though — if the history is valuable and interesting, include it. If it provides context in general, include it; if it’s just overconfident marketing fluff

Truly evidence that we’re living in the worst timeline — the Bulwer-Lytton has been one of the highlights of my year for as long as I can remember. My parents introduced me to it before I could read; I remember them laughing and crying as t

That's up to GoG; I've submitted every game I've released to them and it's like talking into the void, never a response. They're a delight as a customer, but kind of half-assed as a platform (at least if you're

Ooh! I’d love to see that, or to have a chat and swap ideas. My email is in my profile if you’d be up for it.

There must be something in the water! I’ve been working on a (very different) chess-like roguelike, and just released the demo. Check it out if you’re a fan of weird chess puzzles, bad chess puns, and Hnefatafl! https://store.ste

I know this is nitpicking, but as a Texan I have to correct you on a point of grammar. The “west” in “West Texas” (and similarly for the other regions) isn’t an adjective; it’s part of the proper noun and should be capitalized. So it’s “Wes

EVs aren’t exactly new; there’s a deep, accessble secondhand market by now. I’ve been using a 2019 Nissan Leaf as a primary family car for two years now, that I picked up off Gumtree for around £3k. It’s been one of the best (little) cars I

Oh, man; I got my hands on a (dead) one of these when I was a freshman in college (2004) and instead of trying to restore it my friends and I gutted it and used it as an original Xbox case mod. It was pretty satisfying to show up at LAN par

I've spent the last couple days building out an automated classifier on top of the batch API, and just this morning (about a minute before the outage began!) started running my first live tests. I thought I was going mad!

I’ve noticed this tendency in my own UI work as well: dark designs tend to get darker, and light designs lighter, when updated or refreshed in isolation. Is there a term for this kind of ratcheting effect?

It's not clear from the linked page, which seems to have been last updated in 2022, aside from user comments asking for support. Thank you for the clarification!

> When someone already has a broken system... To be fair, this tool doesn't claim to fix a broken system; as near as I can tell it doesn't actually remove the underlying Windows installation, so the core problem will remain.

This should have a (2022) in the title, which begs the question: is this still a relevant tool for de-shittifying Windows 11, or is it limited to 10? (Asking as I don't have a Windows box of any kind around to test, as I'm not a m

I wonder if this includes Skywise, the Palantir-built data lake and design stack that they use for many many internal operations (design, airline support, manufacturing). Not sure what difference it really makes where the data is hosted if

Me, too! I worked at Sun from 2002-2004, and some of us got them as pointlessly fancy door badges for datacenter access. In hindsight it was such a novelty, almost a gag, but they were kind of awesome for what they were. And you felt like a
