yea, vim doesn't have that, and you don't have to check if vim/emacs is installed on the remote box. just use tramp and if you have ssh access to the files, so does emacs.

I used claude to handle a git commit for me (I wrote the code myself, but used Claude just for git -- I prefer fossil so never bothered to learn git command line) and it took credit for doing nothing but the commit.

I've not had that problem, but I have 35 years of programming experience, so I can describe exactly what I want. Maybe that's the difference. It doesn't have to be a single sentence, I write a whole paragraph or even pseudoco

That may change over time, but it's not going to change anytime soon. All the fabs are sold out and companies like Nvidia and AMD are buying up all their capacity until at least 2028, and new fabs aren't going to be coming online

Imagine someone telling you that their cousin who convinced someone to off themselves and may hallucinate occasionally that they should be the person dealing with your customers. You'd flat out tell them to go f themselves. But if thei

I tried it out, it built a system, calling itself AGOS, created a test project and coded it up successfully, added validation checks, verified everything worked properly, made a bunch of scripts to track goals and tasks and other stuff. I d

No love for fossil (fossil-scm.org)? It has a wiki, bug tracking, forums, email alerts, chat, dvcs, etc. It's written by and used by the same developers of sqlite. A single small file gives you the whole chili and pickles.

No, they gave the cannibal ants a link to a new food source. Imagine you're living in your house, your neighborhood, and there's this large pit in the center, where the cannibals live. They're 30ft down so they can't get

From what I've seen (at a fortune 100 company) they made the supposedly "best" employees fully remote, and they neglected to tell the others that there were "limited slots" for fully remote and thus they had to come

Aerospace already has software standards for certification like DO-178C which is critical for certification from the FAA. You don't have to be licensed to write the software, but if it doesn't meet standards required for certifica

That's not even the point. Also IQ tests are normalized for individuals in their same age group. If they're comparing them to people, then what age group people are they comparing with? Also the tests are timed, so IQ is more a me

There's so many photos of just her staring off into the distance, and only one photo with her presenting the actual thing that she's supposedly famous for. I don't get the point of just all these random photos of this girl.

fossil is great, and I wish more companies used it. It's so simple, has everything you need, documentation, bugs, email alerts, chat, a forum, a wiki. It's all there. Having to go to jira to manage something, confluence for someth

I think you may be mistaking Society of Mind with a different book. It's not about lisp or "good old fashioned AI" but about how the human mind may work - something that we could possibly simulate. It's observations ab

I've been programming in python for over 20 years. An LLM creates code that sometimes works, but it definitely doesn't meet my standards, and there's no way I'd use the code since I couldn't support it. People who h

>That’s a disingenuous argument. You don’t know what you don’t know. Literally. A completely self guided high school graduate following random online materials will not learn nearly as much on their own. Or they will go down rabbit holes

Not just farmers, pilots, and anything that flies long distances will be hugely affected. Pilots rely not just on forecasts, but also warnings like turbulence, icing, thunderstorms, low visibility, etc. Without precision, and relying on oth

I don't think the result of this study would stop people from getting tattoos, but if you're on the fence, then perhaps it could sway you. Either way, it can provide information to doctors to perhaps screen them more often for ski

You don't ask for the requirements. You ask what they're trying to do, or what problem they're trying to solve. Sometimes I have to ask "where is this data going" or "what do you expect the end result of this t

"FSD" is not running red lights, the so-called "driver" is. Ultimately you are responsible for what your car does, when you are in the driver's seat. If you allow it to run red lights, it's on you.

there's 8 million pixels in 4k, so if you're trying to graph 8 million points, might as well just fill up the screen with a single color and call it a day. If you have 8 billion, well you can graph about 0.1% of that and fill up e

Why? What specifically caused you not to seek out alternatives? PyPy and libraries with CFFI seem to work okay together, but it can run python native code nearly as fast as C, so I always look for a pure python solution rather than depend o

You are comparing miles to number of taxis, and some vague frequency of accidents vs an inexact statistic. I appreciate you trying, but I believe accident statistics are normally based on "per million vehicle miles traveled". If y
