I had assumed that there would already be a switch/case because I was going with the example in the code of there being three pseudotypes (bid, ask, and reserved). So it seemed natural to me to use a switch statement to have it execute

Fair enough; in the example provided the "tag" was allowed to be "bid, ask, or reserved" so I assumed there would be a switch statement to control the handling of the bid and ask specifics, and that it could drop the res

In the reserved case you do still need to check if you have a reserved entity, but you can put it (along with the other allowed "pseudotypes") in a switch/case block and have it just break back out immediately (the no-op ment

You can save/load the contents of a single buffer or all buffers. For a single buffer, select the buffer you want to save, then go to the Live menu and choose "Save Buffer As". To load a file into a buffer, choose the buffer

Presumably it captures a screenshot and then uses CV on the resulting image to "see" the application and identify the various things that you might want to click.

I understand that this is kind of beside the point, but it seems like a bad thing to compare inventions to haunted artifacts that mind controlled their users into betraying their friends to a powerfully evil being. (Though since it is being

I was a huge skeptic of evil-mode/modal editing for about a decade and a half. Then I bit the bullet when I switched to Spacemacs in ~2017 and I am a full convert. The "change-in-<delimiters>" functionality alone is wor

Also FWIW I understand that the furry community has a strong culture of commissioning artists for their work , so that's likely to be a headwind against using genAI that isn't explicitly trained only on licensed materials. Sure,

So this is a post from/for a group of livecoding music jammers, but I think there's value in considering it in broader contexts. In particular, the parts about "let code die" and not being afraid to remove/rewrite l

Net worth isn't equity - mortgage + 401k. Net worth is assets - liabilities. Equity is not an asset; the house is . So is the 401k. The mortgage is a liability. So Joe's net worth is 100k (IRA) + 300k (value of house) - 200k (mor

It's for letters/numbers. The mechanical keyboard community has adopted phrases like "chord" and "arpeggio" because they refer to analogous things in the typing world ("pressing multiple keys at the same t

Without those sorts of revolutionary claims, would they still be receiving enough funding to keep the lights on?

Android phones (at least some of them) have "Do Not Disturb" mode which blocks calls from numbers not in your Favorites (i.e. starred contacts)

I had basically the same thought: This sounds a lot like how they describe LLMs working!

by Tcepsa 1y ago
Maybe it's spite-driven development, but I'd love to hear about someone who, upon learning that LLMs are suggesting endpoints in their API that don't exist, implements them specifically to respond with a status code[0] of &qu

If they do it properly and walk through it with you afterwards, it can be a good opportunity for you to assess cultural fit as well based on the conversation that you have; are they hypercritical of unimportant details? Do they acknowled

Absolutely less. Like, "Will not purchase unless there is no alternative" less.

As a long-time fan of Clojure (I've been using it to varying degrees since 2008 and it is my favorite programming language) I'm really excited about the interpretability it sounds like this will open up!!

Thank you for collecting these here--it's been very heartening for me to see that I'm not the only one around here that sees these kinds of things and finds it difficult to maintain a positive outlook. I appreciate that there are

LOL, makes me think of something more like putting in an order on a stock exchange: Alexa, what's the current price of a small box of Tide Pods? A box of 10 Tide Pods costs $5 Alexa, place a limit order for a box of 10 Tide Pods at $

That's definitely something I struggle with, both in videogames and real life. There's also a related thing with taking time to enjoy the things that I have bought or saved up for or worked so hard to get. It's not necessar

Doesn't the assertion that correct horse battery staple = 2048^4 require the attacker to know that you're using this pattern?

Yes and: then that approach got cargo culted into places where it doesn't work because e.g. the domain is too gnarly, because management heard that glanceable interfaces with high discoverability were the new industry best practice

Lots of "how to" articles written by AI with insufficient editorial oversight. For example, I was trying to learn about buffers for polishing things (like buffing the clear coat on a car, or buffing a floor) and one of the article

I love the idea of the Internet of Things, but I hate how it primarily seems to be playing out. I am loath to have anything on our home network that needs a third party server and its own app in order to operate. I do have some smart

Somewhat, mainly out of frugality, but I also feel in some ways that we (my family and I) are still being pretty extravagant. I have a desktop (that's probably 9 years old for the MB/processor and a GPU that's about the same
