It's not one-click, or at least it wasn't for me. I clicked the link in the sentence "If you prefer to opt out of letting Fi use and share your CPNI with Alphabet and Google services, you can do so by replying here", and

The signatories on this are not crackpots. Hinton is incredibly influential, and he quit his job at Google so he could "freely speak out about the risks of A.I."

Node already has a solution for this: core modules are prefixed with "node:" to distinguish them from third-party modules. https://fusebit.io/blog/node-18-prefix-only-modules/?utm_sou...

I just checked the repo[0], and it says Bram has authored 95% of all commits to Vim. To say "the community owns Vim" when they've done ~5% of the work reminds me of group projects in school where one person does all the work

I've been in the same situation, and it's one of the few times I've appreciated the bureaucracy and red tape that come with being at a Fortune 500 company. Whenever the sales team comes to me asking for another tracking pixel

Elden Ring earned $720m in the first 2 weeks, which averages ~$51m a day.

Elden Ring isn't going to be a standalone game. The publisher (Bandai Namco) says it's the start of a franchise, which fans are almost certain to lap up for a long time to come. Had Elden Ring included microtransactions or other q

Everything I've reads says the opposite. Elden Ring has sold at least 13.4 million units so far[1], which is >$800 million in revenue. The only revenue figure I could find for Diablo Immortal is $800k [2]. They're not even in t

The problem with adding so much complexity to the parser is that it's now impossible to predict how any given Markdown is going to render on Github. If Github's parser was open-source, you could at least look at the source to fig

Wordpress was first released in 2003. There wasn't a database abstraction layer for PHP at the time (PDO was first released in 2005), so it was tightly coupled to MySQL.

Correct. The first example on the Wikipedia page is a gender bias study that appears to show a bias against women in college admissions, but there was actually a bias in favor of women: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/S

Dash is Debian's default non-interactive shell, and it isn't POSIX compliant. The only way to get POSIX compliance on Debian is to switch to a different shell (e.g. bash).

by anonydsfsfs 5y ago
"command -v" isn't reliable because several shells (including Dash) don't obey the POSIX standard. See https://github.com/oilshell/oil/blob/8fbc09bb3254cee944b0450...

I've seen this happen as a workaround for the following bug in Dash: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=874264 If Dash was POSIX compliant, this wouldn't be necessary, but it isn't, so hac

Agreed. When things get bad, there's going to huge pressure on politicians to do something , and at that point there's probably not going to be any good answers. Geoengineering is risky, especially if it's rushed, but it&#x2
