Apple is like that because people are hellbent on giving Apple money despite them being so user hostile.

It's a result of being human, and the fact that we still haven't figured out how to work together well.

yes but if you don't create a company you can't get funding.

Yes, and then they start complaining that the shared domain objects are not kept up to date by team $notMine, and so they inevitably go to a shared library where they fall back into the same issues.

I used to use infinity for reddit, after the api saga, I was able to patch it with my own api key since personal ones were still free. I lost the key since, and had to re-install Infinity, so when I go to the reddit api page, turns out they

The reason I use plan then implement is because I can adjust the plan, whereas if I get it to implement straight away, it might (and often does) make the wrong decisions that will be harder to adjust, or I'd have to adjust it after the

For what it's worth I was joking. I've only been Shinjuku as a tourist, so I unfortunately won't be able to familiarise myself with the layout, but I do feel your pain. I've seen the same thing in smaller stations in the

Now we just need an app that links your location in 3d space so you can finally easily navigate Shinjuku.

Heavy disagree. I can't be sure about other AI coding agents as I haven't used others enough, but especially the items around prompt cache misses and compaction have hit me personally. This article (combined with another article p

I hope so, but I am not holding my breath. OpenAI and Anthropic have too much money riding on them. I'll be surprised if they die.

The website is down, but another commenter linked the original article[0]. Seems their reasoning is: > For each runtime, the fastest available web framework was selected to ensure optimal performance But I agree. Best thing to do is use

Whether you like it or not, software is inherently political. Most aspects of our lives are. The fact you're using GLM there's some underlying political reason (yes, my guess in this case is cost, which is also political) and ment

Well then the question becomes, what did it get trained on for next token prediction to come to the conclusion that there's a white genocide? Cos yes, people on the internet believe such stupid thing, but I can promise you, it is not t

This has been my experience too. And that conclusion, I've found that if I really don't want to deal with such quirks, I can indeed literally just run the same docker compose file in rootful mode, and it works. Making the changes

Because Apple is not just a hardware company anymore. They track users and they sell ads. Sure, they are not at the same level as Meta and Google, but their ad platform is not insignificant anymore. Also that same software platform allows t

I am still setting it up, but I've seen Mailrise and Apprise that essentially achieves this. The nice thing about Apprise is that it can direct notifications to various places, not just another email server.

When I was working at Tesco some 7 years ago, the goal was to move to AWS. Surprised they're still not even close. Good on them for sticking it to Broadcom.

Except when you have internet of course. Yes I know you can run offline models, but it's hard to pass up on a little bit of snark.

This of course only supports http, not https. It's great for health checks e.g. in a docker environment. To do https, you'd have to use something like socat, but of course that doesn't use bash only.

I don't understand what's wrong with someone suggesting a book to an author? Do you think all authors have read all other books? If you had pointed out the original commenter's patronizing comment, as if they with 100% certai

Absolutely not. Maybe runtime overheads are minimal, but builds are so much harder to do. And yes, you need to figure it out maybe once, but it is still a lot more effort than just pulling in a new dependency. Now repeat that same effort fo
