Any idea if it's any good? I used the old Lucene implementation ages ago and thought it was OK, though wasn't using it in a big way.

I think part of the problem is that Google has conflated the "mark as spam" button with "unsubscribe" and people just mash it as a shortcut to "make this email go away".

Exactly my experience a few years ago (it not working is directly related to how little I use Facebook today). You might stop getting stuff from that specific page or account or whatever but you certainly continue to get related stuff.

+1. Bit nervous about their new pricing/licensing model but so far all the major stuff I use is in the OSS side.

Same! And I feel weird about it. The only issue I have is sometimes the task switcher hangs or fails and I can't easily switch tasks, but aside from that it ticks a lot of boxes.

Given how easy it seems to be to convince actual human beings to vote against their own interests when it comes for 'freedom', do you think it will be hard to convince some random AIs, when - based on this document - it seems like

This is elitist nonsense. Maybe this user didn't do everything right but people are hacked regularly through zero fault of their own.

you can replace the word "PHP" in this post with any other language and it would still be true.

You can set this up in a non-production environment and realise a lot of the benefits. It would also help you figure out better ways to manage your logs such that you can improve signal-to-noise ratio in monitoring solutions and alarming. N

What actually happens in most (small) businesses is one person gets lumped with all these jobs and the business is regularly surprised they're constantly over-worked and under-delivering

Very curious what sort of workloads are being talked about here that have the intensity that have C or Rust or Go extensions are necessary? I can certainly believe they exist but I'd be really interested to find out more and why it mak

My last two Pixel phones - 6a and 7a - were both "recalled" with battery issues. I got almost a complete refund for both, and got keep the phone (my 7a died a few months after the recall, 6a is still going strong). I got a 9a to r

Would love some more info about how redaction works. We currently use Acrobat Pro for redaction mostly because of 'trust' issues, but I'd love to replace it with a web tool. I just need to convince our CFO that it's safe

Redaction doesn't seem to work in Firefox either. Otherwise looks great!

From what bits I've seen of the trial, at least a chunk of it was devoted to the meaning of the word "autopilot". Tesla even brought in a linguist to argue their case: https://bsky.app/profile/niedermeyer

Maybe we should define our terms then? I favour this definition of "ur-fascism" by Umberto Eco: https://archive.is/VamLM To steal a few examples from a convenient summary list someone[1] made: 1. The cult of tradi

I work for a freight forwarder. We have some customers that exported to the US and were hit with the boosted tariffs. Only a few smaller air freight shipments, so not container loads full - they decided to eat the extra cost to try to keep

I've been writing shell scripts in PHP for more than 20 years for this reason. Don't work on a lot of PHP sites any more but I still do most of my shell scripting in it. I think this'll be a big win for C# users once they get

All true but tell the average programmer that you think their industry should be regulated and they should potentially be held liable for their code. This is not a popular opinion on software development circles - unless you're already

Maybe they don't because they've seen what happens when Microsoft tried to build an OS that was both touch screen and mouse & keyboard.

This is true as long as we don't end up with a mutation that can go from people to people. I saw this morning that we now have the first cases of rats with H5N1, so... things are going great

There is also the question of whether the actions required to cut the waste are themselves expensive. If you spend a huge amount of time and effort to cut waste, there's a point at which it would have been cheaper to just accept that s
