I've used Laravel since v3. Taylor's ego has started to tick me off in the last ~5 years. And, I feel like him buying a Ferrari made his priorities apparent. I'm not sure what happened to making a framework that had the nuts

Ignoring tariffs for the moment... No one should be shocked that Amazon would do this. Remember back when it was controversial to apply sales tax to online shopping? The biggest lobbyist against it was Amazon, which they marketed as fightin

Upvoted because we’re seeing the same behavior from all AI and Seo bots. They’re BARELY respecting Robots.txt, and hard to block. And when they crawl, they spam and drive up load so high they crash many servers for our clients. If AI crawle

Okay, but why not work on making atmospheric methane more useful/practical? CO2 is less of a warming influence than methane, and there have been huge natural gas leaks (of methane) in the last 10-20 years. Even MIT admits that Methane

Upvoted because your ToS is very clear about the images we scale aren't used to improve training. Thank you for that. I have some pretty old photos I may have to pull out and upscale. They're from back in the old 1MP camera days.

So 5,000 qbits to crack a 50 bit prime key. That’s an interesting factor. Assuming a similar scale, 204,800 qbits would crack RSA 2048 keys. I’m curious why it scales to needing “millions” according to those researchers.

Fruit trees can take a very long time to mature and grow flowers/fruit. Hopefully it can pollinate with itself, and isn’t a kind that has sexes.

I still believe Recall to be a very bad idea, a feature no one wanted, and a risk even as an Opt-In choice. But at least it will be harder to access. I want to see a security researcher play with it though. So far, I'm not a fan of Win

Maybe you misunderstand the market my employer serves? We've built sites for clients both huge and small. Our clients like WordPress because it's well supported, easy to roll out, and easy to find someone to work on. Lots of peopl

It’s the excess, unaccessed content. The indexes haven’t been well optimized in MySQL (MariaDB is better). But still. A lot of small companies only pay $20/mo for hosting …

I have used and developed in Wordpress since 3.2. Mullenweng is a dictator and maverick, and I’m not convinced that he’s good for the Wordpress ecosystem. But neither are highly customized WP hosting platforms. Revisioning, especially since

Wait, so they added 30g of erythritol and observed negative impacts? Most the time I see it around 7g plus other sweeteners. It’s almost never alone now. I bet they need to look at 30-45g sugar harder now. Maybe uncover some of that (big su

I think this flag was added because a lot of these sex workers want to post pictures without flagging their sensitive media. Then they dog pile replies on all the trending tweets, and people find the adult content. Any time that happens to

Isn't this just AI-powered cat-fishing? Even if that's not your _intended_ use-case, I anticipate it being >90% of all users being cat-fishers.

Bun is a very nice runtime. I played with it for several hours, and was impressed by how snappy it feels.

Tailwind is also bad if you do know how to use it. The need for an atomic abstraction off every combination of property and value… is not a sign of skill or good design.

I think that GPT4 (and all others) are overhyped, and overblown. ML/LLM does not fundamentally understand the code. It has to be trained based upon contextual information as to what the code is doing. There are already researchers expe

Well, that isn't the use-case I would need. The whole app would be written in PHP, so there would be no node process to execute the function. Invoking the function in node would require launching it, which would take a lot of time. I&#

This is very cool. However, most our use cases would be in PHP apps. I see that you’re working on a code generation API. Would that be the step necessary for generating the PHP invokable code?

Ever since I saw a picture of bacteria found in a tumor I have been fascinated. The more correlations I see uncovered, the more I wonder: did the bacteria colonize a tumor it found, or did the bacteria encourage the body to form a tumor to

Compare a hand-made loaf of bread to one from the grocery store. Count the number of ingredients. The hand-made loaf is usually made from flour, with water, oil, and leavening. If you buy unprocessed flour that makes 4 or 5 ingredients as a

I think that the base claim that "Car quality is slipping" is generally true. But I think that this is a trend that began a decade ago. Comparing the track records of the vehicles I've owned: 2002 Corolla (used) - rock soli
