I hope you aren't missing the point. My position is similar to the author. I WILL take responsibility for the code I push to production, and rather than input a prompt and roll the dice on the outcome, I am strategic in my prompts, ens

Why did you copy the dictionary's definition nearly perfectly, but then add "without logic"? In many cases, the conservative approach to a problem is prudent because the old ways work whereas there is more risk and uncertaint

The one time I considered cancelling my current provider (Comcast where I have gigabit), I found the alternative was CenturyLink with 20 Mbps. As if to rub salt in the wound, Comcast then upgraded me to 2000 Mbps which I can't even use

I don't know about other property seized as evidence, but my car costs a nontrivial amount for me to own and maintain, and it's critical for my way of life. Losing my car for even a couple of days would be a very serious disruptio

Reminds me when my daughter made her Roblox account. They had some rule "don't use your real name" but they never asked her for her real name, so couldn't validate. They would arbitrarily fail a lot of chosen usernames

I didn't know you could specify a DNS server with a name. So does dig first look up that name using whatever DNS server is normally configured to determine where the intended DNS server is? NextDNS gives you a name that you can put in

There's a huge need for subscription bundles. I'd gladly pay $20/mo for access to a bunch of big names, even if I'm limited to like 60 articles per month combined across those sources. Instead I just don't pay anyon

Big +1. I feel I can keep my kids YouTube usage under control and effectively moderate what they watch. With shorts I can't scroll through the 100 shorts they quickly swiped through, have no idea which ones they actually watched, and I
