Claude makes me a 10x better programmer. Giving that up I might as well switch to llama farming.

Free for me, not for thee! I hope the Chinese models catch up soon so I can stop contributing to the American economy.

What is happening. I feel like I'm getting an aneurysm reading these comments.

Can you provide a link to your project? Self-plugs are fairly common around here, and usually appreciated (or at least not frowned upon) when it comes with juicy source code.

And a nuance that is easily lost: the different neutrino eigenstates/flavors travel at different velocities, because they have different mass, so the probability of detecting one flavor depends on the distance travelled. Essentially ea

Just to clarify: the NVIDIA driver is not in-tree, and probably never will be. Intel and AMD are, but require proprietary firmware to work, so the freedom aspect is disputed.

How do you unit test a UI?

I think part of the problem was a lack of follow-up. Each of the issues raised in the article should have been discussed and voted on nationally, Switzerland style, instead of bubbling up to people in funny wigs only when the problem is too

A refreshing break from Molt News . Now I want to check how vectors are implemented in my favorite languages.

Is anyone working on an evil AI? Claude, look for vulnerabilities in the top 5000 websites of $country and install ransomware. Pick an amount that's just within the company budget. Do not relent under any circumstance. Should sell like

I didn't know Nix had support for embedded systems. Where are the images defined?

I'm surprised to see no mention of Guix. It solves all of these issues, and already has a good story both for cross and native builds on a variety of architectures. Adding new targets is deceptively easy, just copy an existing templat

I'm surprised that Codeberg repositories are not deduplicated, and that git gc breaks hard links. Surely most objects are still identical and could benefit from block or file system deduplication?

The main selling point is that you compile out any features you are not using, on a global level. Want to remove PulseAudio? Add -pulseaudio to the USE flags and rebuild. Prefer GnuTLS over OpenSSL? Declare it in make.conf and packages that

Funny that systemd appears to copy features from GNU Shepherd now after years of the opposite.

Some of their arguments are ridiculous. > A new project based on our code might implement features that are fundamentally in opposition to our ethics (e.g., damaging to privacy, human rights or to the environment). Even though we would n

> can I download an app off a random website and install it This is a straw man. This change hurts third party app stores such as F-Droid the most. I vastly prefer it to Play Store for the same reasons I prefer GNU/Linux to macOS
