Really? I've essentially learned how to cook from Gemini. Not a great cook yet, but I can do the basics now.

It's probably very cultural thing. I understand how one can consider a studio and a gym to be the same, but around my area the studios are very different from gyms. For me, the gym has a gym energy, kinda intimidating. There's lot

That sounds awfully similar to our own reading of Department Q. I'll watch it too.

There is now. But were these principles in place long ago at the beginning?

Do you get the irony of commenting this on a post about a single person complaining about how they are unfairly affected by sanctions put up against their country?

It's all PR. Some people won't read the details and just assume it will train on all data. Some people might complain and they tell it was a bug or a minor slip. And moving forward, after a few months, nobody will remember it was

What about reframing therapy as counseling? I'm not there to be healed, I'm there to talk to someone about my problems, my insecurities, the shit I can't (or don't want to) talk to anyone else. In my current routine with

I can understand that I'm not alone. It's reasonable to think so. I cannot find support anywhere, though. Which makes me feel isolated. I have nobody to share my struggles with. No place to vent. No space to process it. Only thing

Yeah. Once or twice a year should be fine, I would say.

Yes, it is that bad. I used to do it a lot. Didn't help the slightest. As soon as I adopted an "I'll do it for you" strategy everyone's lives started to improve. Even mine.

The thing about configurable vs non-configurable in this case is that when its configurable then people will spend time debating how exactly they should configure it.

These were the observations that made the most difference in my life too. I also only learned and internalized them after my child was born. He's 3 now and I'm happy to admit that I've grown a lot thanks to him. For the first

I read that as "most people [who smoke weed] grow their own". Also a bold statement but way less absurd than "most Canadians grow weed".

I use a similar system, but I duplicate and rename the file at the start of each day. Then I remove stuff that got done the previous day. Or stuff that is old and not relevant anymore. The system has evolved over the years. The greatest thi

Anyone who's experienced it will understand. I've described it as feeling like you're thin, stretched, like butter spread over too much bread. And people promptly reply "like a robot, am I right". It's definite

If I may ask: do you have kids? I used to have a lot of trouble when trying to not care about stuff. I didn't care about most stuff, but it used to be impossible to not care about stuff I was naturally interested in. Now after almost t

You're literally "made to feel" certain ways. During your formative years someone was shouting you suck and generally acting as you're a burden and unwanted? You'll feel that shit for the rest of your life no matter

Same thing happened to me the first time I tried using molly. I am convinced it was actually a fake of some amphetamines and caffeine or something. But it still had an effect on me: for the first time in my life I was able to have fun while

It's basically impossible to convince someone to do all those things when they're fighting to stay alive, working terrible conditions and generally being fucked by society as a whole. Fixing economic inequalities and improving ove

That's interesting. Applying that model to my interactions with my wife I think I could add that the same person could be details oriented in some situations/subjects/contexts while at the same time being intuitive in others.

To this day I consider TONC ( https://www.coranac.com/tonc/text/ ) to be the greatest software project I have ever worked with. It touches everything you need to develop games for the GBA. The documentation is aweso

My mom worked night shifts as a nurse most of her life. It gave her the opportunity to be with us during the day but also took a toll on her sleep habits and health. She had a lot of trouble sleeping so she said she would just lie still in

This trend is indeed weird. It reminds me of my journey with Vim. In the beginning it was life changing. Like I felt like it really gave me an edge. I had all kinds of customizations on top of it. After a while I changed to Vim plugins insi

And is that hard? Sorry if this is a newbie question, I'm really out of the loop on this tech. What would be required? Computing power and tagging? Or can you like improve the model without much human intervention? Can it be done incre

I have been programming for more than 15 years. I've used vim since the very beginning and it always puzzled me as something so genuinely clever. Using vim is a joy. I feel good while doing it. Bram has been this strong influence in my

That's a great technique I would say! I stumbled on it by chance when I failed to make it to a client meeting with one junior dev I was leading. He was counting on my presence to support him, we had already discussed it before. But I g

I had the opposite experience with junior devs on my team. The ones that knew how to communicate and ask for help thrived. It was easy to negotiate some head banging on the wall time while also pairing from time to time to discuss where the
