I've now worked with 3 teams that have moved from Python (2/3) and C++ (1/3) to (async) Rust. All successfully, all with less bugs, moving faster, etc. And now we have AI.

I'm still a fan of HJSON, and JSON5 looks quite nice, but this does as well. That's all I can really say. There are so many choices, but looks like you did really well on this one.

The Supreme Court is bought and paid for by the group that wants to <s>ban</s> likely take over. So, regardless of what your thoughts on TikTok are, it's mostly all irrelevant.

Love every bit of this type of stuff that mostly only the younger generations are doing. Maybe someday, our society will move away from slaving away in terrible environments to realistically only raise up a handful of humans.

These discussions continue to come up, and I feel like it's wasting time on the wrong issues. Is AI *borrowing concepts* from artists? Yep. Do artists borrow concepts from other artists? Yep. Is AI or humans in a vacuum when creating n

The suggestion to switch to Chrome is pretty rich. Firefox is more privacy conscious Chrome even with this enabled.

I've been trying to convince people of this for years. The problem is from my view, that people have the idea of IP being some sort of the American Dream ingrained in their heads that they can't even reason about anything else.

No clear answers? Maybe you should ask some of them. The younger generations are constantly talking about it - while the older generations are constantly talking about it as well, just from a different perspective. People are tired of capit

No, it feels that way because music is a monthly service, any media is a monthly service cost, backups are monthly service cost, news are a monthly service cost, VPN is a monthly service cost, internet is of course a monthly service cost, p

I'm not sure why the bigger issue isn't being talked about more, but yes, algorithms and "AI" are deployed in fashions that optimize profit. That's it. Profit. It's only getting much, much worse.

Totally agree that individuals buying houses just for the sake of renting them out is also a problem. Renting out your legitimate 2nd home, I don't have a problem with.

This effects small businesses as well: These large mega corps buy up huge chunks of land and plan the entire thing from housing (which of course comes with their tight and pretty unregulated HSA) as well as slots pre-planned for particular

This feels like attacking a symptom, not the cause. Housing and real estate across the board have been bought up by private corporations -- including housing that they then turn around and Airbnb. This has plagued the housing market in gene
