You’ve just explained my own thoughts better than I ever have been able to, especially what with the political minefield that is literally anything mentioned in your post. Brilliantly articulate. I have half a mind to commit your entire com

Well, every shell has its quirks and gotchas. I’ve found nushell’s to be the least intrusive and most workable thus far.

With external commands you might have to collect the output of the program before doing any sort of manipulation. I’ve been got by this before too; the fix is simple (for me at least). `external.exe | collect | from json` et voila

If you like Powershell but have some complaints, you might find nushell to be the best of both worlds. My elevator pitch for it would be imagine the object-oriented / typed nature of Powershell, minus the verbosity and windows-centric

I would agree. That’s exactly what the example I gave (list-to-tree) does. LLMs are actually pretty OK at writing regexes, but for long word lists with prefix/suffix combinations they aren’t great I think. But I was just commenting on

I think they would want a more optimized regex. Like a long list of swears, merged down into one pattern separated by tunnel characters, and with all common prefixes / suffixes combined for each group. That takes more than just replaci

Anecdotal but I have found that at least some times, rideshare drivers are willing to take cash for rides under some circumstances. Not at all common though, most of the time I have asked I’ve been unceremoniously shot down. The one time I

If you don’t mind me asking, how were you able to immigrate there? I have family that lives in Norway on my father’s side and I’ve sometimes fantasized about packing up my life and moving there after I visited them and saw what an amazing p

I would say that IOS AdBlocking is significantly less effective than that which you’d expect from a Desktop adblocker (and presumably android, so I’ve heard— can only speak for iOS though). My little brother likes to watch Anime on his iPad

I agree with you. When I was younger, I played a lot of Minecraft PVP servers, and for whatever reason these PVP servers cultivated a weird and toxic community of cyber criminals about them. For reference/star value, the recent headlin

Love the idea. I’m always finding myself writing little user scripts / browser extensions to extend websites I use all the time, and trying to use an API I found in the devtools network requests page always gets annoying when I have to

Perhaps it could be misaligned incentives? The primary variable YT optimizes for is time spent on the platform. Being able to instantly find and skip ahead to the part you wanted means you didn’t spend the extra time that you would’ve other

Technically speaking, how do they accomplish this? Given the amount of advertisers they have, the amount of ads that each advertiser is showing, and the amount of variations of those ads that they’re showing (5s, 15s, etc), I think we can s

Maybe it’s some sort of in joke for the company. At least, that’s how I took it— alongside it being an obvious reference to a speedometer. My intuition was that maybe the company’s name was “gauge”, or better yet the CEO’s name was gauge. I

Yeah, for real. Isn’t the entire point of cryptocurrency (or at least a key principle) to be resistant to censorship / centralized attempts to “kill” it? I don’t doubt that there is some damage that could be done to crypto as a whole b

I’m not who you replied to, but I agree with his sentiment about signal being superior to telegram in terms of security (or more specifically, privacy). For me, there’s two big reasons for this: Signal chats are E2E at all times, while Tele

I can’t be sure of whether this specific line in their user agreement applies to this specific situation (balance of an account that has been locked isn’t specifically mentioned), but a cursory glance at their (Canadian) user agreement [1]

I might be out of touch with security nowadays, but could there be a reasonable explanation on Microsoft’s part here in that they wanted to try and help prevent the dime-a-dozen malicious attachment attacks that we’ve all heard about? Don’t

Good lord. This site is objectively annoying on mobile. As soon as I load the page, full-screen cookie consent notice, paired with some support chat widget that was overlapping with the accept/decline buttons on the cookie consent form

The Spiffing Brit did a video on YT Premium revenue [0]. My understanding is all the money from all the premium subscribers is thrown into a big pool, of which YouTube takes 45% (or whatever their share is) right off the bat. Then, they tak

I’m not sure how viable this recommendation is, but when I was younger I got my start in development through working online using a pseudonym, working in game development / management. You might be able to try to do the same through a

Personally, for my close friends I just keep an informal page on iOS notes (or what have you) that I update with ideas I have throughout the year. Mostly, these ideas come from conversations with them, where they mention off hand something

I’m not sure how much my suggestions answer your original question, but in the pursuit of proper grammatical structure when trying to rewrite speech, compromise [0] might be of use to you. I’ve only played around with it for a few hours at
