Honestly i'd love to migrate off of google, but its been a pain. My family is a heavy user of google calendar so I either have to migrate them off or I have to keep my google calendar account. I tried fastmail but honestly its not as e

Its fundamentally different. Science doesn't ask you to accept unknowns on faith, its provides evidence that there is something we dont yet understand and that evidence has predictive value. If science operated like religion it would s

Hmm... this doesn't quite add up. Do we have brain scans showing that critical thinking centers of the brain turn off when people read books or play table games?

It depends on a few factors. 1. The location of tattoo, some regions of skin are VERY sensitive. 2. The skill of the tattooer. How deep do they go, how fast do they pull, etc... 3. The size of the lines and shading A fine line tattoo feels

Diversify! Historically, the average length of a recession has been 12-24 months. So set up a system whereby you won’t screw’s yourself over by selling when things are low, but instead you can weather the storm. Build a rainy day fund. Det

I'm not preaching anything here just pointing out the hypocrisy of the "america good, china bad" line of reasoning that is pervasive.

By the same logic if you pay money to United States based companies (FAANG) you're directly funding genocide, mass incarceration of people of color, the undermining of digital privacy, and a techo-fascist regime.

Cursor at 60B is WAY overvalued. At this point you have to assume that anything that gets touched by Elon is hyper driven financial engineering.

Is this a surprise? This is hardly anything new. The United States was built with slavery.

I heard very similar advice from some investors. They said: > If you ignore what we tell you its possible we'll fire you. However, if you do everything we tell you to do its almost certain that we'll fire you.

One of the key problems you have to solve is the how do you execute code on an untrusted device. The major cloud providers do a ton of work so you can "trust" the compute you pay for. Without a truly zero-trust compute platform i

It turns out, if you build it correctly, you can get BETTER reliability SLAs. There's a company https://www.storj.io/ thats been doing this for years.

The decision to block all downloads is pretty disruptive, especially for people on pinned known good versions. Its breaking a bunch of my systems that are all launched with `uv run`

Oh this is super cool. Coming from Java I've long missed JDBI and Rosetta which makes writing SQL Queries in Java a dream. I've toyed around with a similar style interface for python, and looking at this give me hope I can achiev

Interesting, where are you running into trouble buying meat from local farmers? I've often visit rural farms that have a store houses. Nearly all of them haver refrigerators and freezers with meat to buy.

My take on the OP is that its commitment to an idea is what matters, not how quickly its created. I love seeing people insta-clone things but is this a side project that going to see updates for a few weeks or is this something that is goi

It is the sites job to make documentation available to the users, no? It’s so odd for a tech focused crowed to be so opposed to newer technology. Users are getting used to natural language search, not having it will be perceived as friction

I can understand why this may seem simple, but when it comes to the brain almost nothing is simple. Choline a key component in Acetylcholine is the primary neurotransmitter used in your hippocampus. Its an excitatory neurotransmitter meanin

Hard agree with this article. Split up your application by domains, create public apis between modules, understand your dep tree and keep it clean. The devil in the details is how you pull something like this off. At the end of the day is b

Not sure if you’re being coy or pushing the trope but you’re right guns don’t actually kill people. The bullets and blood loss tend to do that. That said, denying people access to guns does result in fewer gun related fatalities.

Its an interesting idea and the engineer in my agrees with you. Then the product skeptic says that anyone who wants to ride a bike as a form of exercise and get around using a bike, would probably just ride a normal bike.

Why not? In my docker files I use `uv sync` to install deps vs `pip install -f requirements.txt` And then set my command to `uv run my_command.py` vs calling Python directly.

Honestly, I was skeptical when I learned about uv. I thought, just Python needs, another dependency manager… this was after fighting with pip, venv, venvwrapper, and poetry for years. Then I gave it a try and it just worked! It’s so much be

This shouldn’t be a surprise to anyone who has been using Python and has tried uv. Python dependency management and environments have been a pain for 15 years. Poetry was nice but slow and sometimes difficult. Uv is lightning fast and damn

Honestly its been pretty wild to see this company succeed over the years. They took on Salesforce and everyone predicted they were going to fail. Yet year over year they've continued to succeed.
