I think you are missing the entire point of this. It's not that it had sensitive data or anything of importance. It is that a .gov domain under the command of the self proclaimed Mr. Efficiency and smartest person of Earth about server

That is also my experience. I use ChatGPT to help me iterate a Godot game project, and it does not take more than a handful of prompts for it to forget or hallucinate about something we previously established. I need to constantly remind it

I don't know where did you get such information, but it takes a few days of wait at most in Canada to get an X-ray.

In Brazil an x-ray exam will cost you no more than 90 BRL, or less than 20 USD in todays rate. And this is out of the pocket, without insurance. If a 3rd world country can have affordable healthcare, why should having minor health complicat

I must disagree with the C/C++ take. Visual Studio is still, for me, one of the best IDEs out there, and the single best one for C/C++ development. And for the longest time, Windows indeed didn't have a good package manager,
