Using Cursor with Jetbrains via ACP isn't that different than using within the Cursor IDE. You still get Agent/Plan/Ask modes with model selectors. I'd recommend installing the Cursor IDE, then using it to install Cursor

If Twitter & Bluesky are for thoughts , and Instagram is for thots , Threads is where the "thots go to share their thoughts." All jokes aside, it's an endless stream of takes from people who don't have an internal

"Vehicle will not break when accelerator pedal is applied" is displayed on the screen in AutoPilot mode. The system warns you this every time you have foot on the pedal in AutoPilot mode. I wonder if it did that back in 2019 as

Ah yes: buy, borrow, and die. It definitely works. I don't think stepped-up basis should go away though, otherwise it's just the government getting a second cut of the inflation it causes. The bigger issue for society is that our

"The scam of income tax is that it's progressive on paper but not in practice." Perfectly put. It's always bothered me that the tax brackets don't continue on in a logarithmic fashion, e.g. new brackets at 1.5 milli

"Hurry up and idle" for CPU design ended up being great for power efficiency. Nature came to the same conclusion for biological organisms a long time ago.

"Because all of the included participants were from infertile couples, this appears to be a limitation of the study..." Pretty big limitation, and their discussion really is just there to justify publishing anyway. Both groups, ba

I'm not convinced that Scott's suggestions will move the needle. Most are good ideas (e.g. term limits, more vocational training opportunities), but some I find distasteful (e.g. forced identity verification for internet services,

Can you actually outperform the KEFs and Perlistens of the world? They seem to have so much engineering put into their designs I don't believe a hobbyist can realistically match them. I will admit that stuff like "speakers with qu

Bing is pretty great now. You get Bing points (redeemable for ~$100 in swag per year) and free Chat GPT that usually answers your question before you decide which link to click on.

"One can block AI features for the project by creating a file with the name '.noai' in the root of the repository." Is this a standard among vendors yet, or are we veering into more dotfile project directory pollution?

You're not alone, I also got stuck in that opening sequence as a child - thankfully the game was just a rental. Honestly at that stage in my life I didn't understand what was going on in the battle sequences since they were so tex

I've been on various projects that utilized Express, Koa, and NestJS (which wraps Express or Fastify). Of the three, I'd choose Koa again over the others. Their design works better with modern javascript (async/await). While

Games just don't respect your time any more. Usually 80+ hours to experience an open world game with a handful of side quests. While I don't share the same love of "emotional experience" games, at this point I'm thi

This is usually the Typescript team tightening up some "loose" behavior that should have had saner defaults. For instance, the catch block default typing changed from unknown from any. The bigger issue I've found is when you&

It has supported generic List and Set interfaces for one-to-many and many-to-many mappings since Hibernate 3 I believe (~2005). What did you have in mind?

Very awesome. Thanks for sharing these little known M2 updates!

Did Apple slip some better scaling in with the M2 chips? Or maybe with the OS update? Or perhaps you're referring to HDMI 2.1 support?

Microsoft Edge just created a logged-in profile on my machine for the second time. I'm not even sure how - maybe it's because I logged into Bing to play with their chat? I'm on a Windows 10 Local account and this is getting o

This was confirmed for me back in 2021 when a personal trainer at my gym decided to do a quick coding boot camp and immediately got hired in the industry.

So, has perfect hashing dispatch like you're describing here actually been added (or planned) in the JIT?

Motion must explain why I find these LCDs in my home office so offensive. Normally they're not a bother, but when my ceiling fan is on and I look at the lights (below the fan), I swear there is some strobing.

Not sure on MacOS memory usage (I stick with Safari and Edge on respective laptops for battery life reasons), but agreed 100% about Firefox on Android tablet. It's just awkward. They need to make the Android UI in general a closer matc

One of my biggest regrets in life is not discovering how pleasant running can be until I was almost thirty. The first couple of months sucked as I was training my cardiovascular system for pretty much the first time ever. Eventually I got t

Had to uninstall Adobe Reader this week because it's become unbearably slow on my 2015 MacBook Pro. I'm talking it can't smooth scroll a 2-page resume PDF. Preview does the trick just fine.

Besides Alexa, I believe the Luna and gaming divisions were cut back some based on LinkedIn postings. Which reminds me, what ever became of O3DE (Lumberyard)? Seems like they should refocus some hiring there to get any market penetration.
