I am not aware of any approaches that work consistently across all major browsers. This matter is nothing new -- there's a Bugzilla report[0] from 13 years ago about this behavior that remains open. Since there's no spec for globa

One thing to note about these two APIs is that they affect how the session history (the back/forward stack) behaves, but the global browser history (entries shown in the History tab) is separate. Most browsers record every change i

I too share your sentiment about VS Code. Its extension API[0] is extensive and approachable, often with examples[1] for each API. Just a small anecdote: At work, I found it frustrating not being able to quickly locate where views for Djang

A little off-topic, but I'd love to see a tool similar to this that provides real-time previews for an entire shell pipeline which, most importantly, integrates into the shell. This allows for leveraging the completion system to comple

Honestly, upon further thought I think it should be fine as long as the diffs look good. I just personally would feel more confident with using perl for anything to do with multi-file substitutions. In theory, ripgrep with `--passthru` and

It might be worth noting that while ripgrep doesn't support in-place file editing, it's still possible to replace matches using the `-r` flag, couple that with a tool like `sponge` from moreutils[0] and you can effectively perform

I'm very fond of looking at problems in a different light to come up with solutions or approximations that can be computed with ease mentally. Do any folks here have pointers to related techniques or resources?

One thing I really appreciate about Wikimedia is the openness and quality of documentation for their infrastructure (which can be found at https://wikitech.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikimedia_infrastructure ). It's an exc

They do note that the models "tend to do better when prompted with longer code generation tasks". But yes, the choice of scales for the graph was rather peculiar.

Pretty cool! Does anyone know how open-source alternatives like GPT-J compare to ChatGPT? I've heard that it's comparable to GPT-3, but nothing close to GPT-3.5. I'd much prefer using a tool that I know won't eventually

The brython appears to only have been used for SVG manipulation. I would have been more interested in seeing the audio being generated dynamically based on the swing ratio, but instead it just plays pre-rendered mp3s.

What do you typically use perl for? I thought it was most commonly used for scripting and running cgi scripts. I find bash to be much more readable and tend to use it or python for most of my scripts

Thanks for the clarification. That seems fair, I suppose the title of the article gave me the impression that they were claiming such an ability would be widespread in all crows (despite the study being done on two carrion crows), when in f

Not sure why I got downvoted. If my assumption is wrong then I'd be really curious to hear from someone that knows better.

Yep, totally. I had some issues with Bluetooth coexistence on my Realtek WiFi card, tried installing various different drivers but nothing fixed it. Replaced it with an Intel one and it worked flawlessly.

Exactly. I feel like the costs of swapping out such components for better ones likely wouldn't exceed $200. Maybe pwg is right and the discounted price with Windows is due to the paid pre-installed software. But that still leaves the c

A bit off-topic, but if that's the case, then why don't you just buy the Windows version, then wipe the disk and install Linux on it. You effectively save yourself $200. Is there something I'm missing? Does selecting the deve

This is a pretty decent cheat sheet. It might be worth noting that not all these commands may be available on every Linux distribution. In fact, there is no set of commands or packages guaranteed to be installed on every distro. Though I&#x
