I took too much cold medicine and was given access to a coding agent. This is the result.

I was in an interview once and the prospective employer asked me what church I attend. I replied, "Catholic." He said, "Is that even Christian?" So, yeah, plenty of Americans have a skewed view of Catholicism.

I had the opposite experience coming from Django/Flask to Elixir/Phoenix. I found it very comfortable and that there were many similar patterns at the framework level. Now, LiveView is a bit of a different story but basic Phoenix

I'm interested to see how this goes. I recently used ChatGPT and Claude to help myself build a simple app for my wife. Just listing things and being able to edit them basically. It was VERY frustrating as both models get pretty basic t

I wouldn't rely on their aggregation. But, with a subscription, you can just read the magazines in the same format and layout as they are printed. No aggregation to get in the way.

Would you go into a store, pick up the newspaper, and walk out without paying?

Apple News does this. Tons of magazines across the spectrum and number of larger US newspapers. If you aren't in the US or at least wanting to read in English, I don't know.

Qobuz markets itself first as a hi-res streaming service. However, it also offers FLAC purchases without DRM that are yours even if you don't continue to use Qobuz. Their selection is very large and might have more options for more wel

Really, any forum that focuses on a specific niche. They could be some of the best places in the Internet. Facebook ate up most of those amazing communities.

In an altruistic and idealistic world, sure. But that's not the world I live in. Personally, I find the ads histrionic and would like them to change. However, an article like this that insinuates something akin to malice or subterfuge

I was an employee, past tense. I was referencing my own salary. I know nothing about the endowment so I can't speak to it.

If you think anyone is getting rich working at the WMF, I can disavow you of that notion. It's just not true. Each of those people is making far below market rate for their respective positions and geographical locations. As for the la

Your response doesn't account for the vast change in scale and technology since then. I also was clear that these two things didn't explain all of the expansion just that they were examples of things some folks might not recognize

The issue with this kind of thinking is that you can't have the freedom of an impartial supporting organization like Wikimedia without the pitfalls that freedom might trip into in the individual case. Not giving Wikimedia money does ab

Exactly. Number of pages is almost meaningless. The system stores a diff of every edit, forever. That includes diffs between binary objects like images and videos. Increasingly, what's being stored is metadata about the content within

One of the issues here is this funding goes toward some of the more hidden work that folks using and even contributing to Wikipedia don't see. Let's take two examples: 1) Automatically identifying, reporting, and perhaps removing

I'm going to assume you are in the US and are primarily interested in English-language outlets. If not, you likely have some great local options that aren't US-centric. So then, I think the Guardian [ https://www.theguar

My mom lived there for years when I was in high school and college. My wife (girlfriend at the time) and I visited my Mom in Antofagasta. We took a bus from Antofagasta to San Pedro de Atacama for a few days. At some point before arriving i

It's easy to conflate Wikipedia and Wikimedia but they are very different things, both in practice and in legal definitions. Lots of comments here are saying that Wikipedia should do something about this. That's equivalent to sayi
