Magit of course also solves this very nicely.

"git add ." ... so annoying to watch people do that, when "git add -u" is right there ... and even when you tell them why it is a bad habit, they continue doing it. I can only assume, that it is due to overly relying on

Before uv there was poetry, and before poetry there was pipenv, before pipenv there was virtualenv. I wish people would stop portraying Python tooling completely wrong like that. uv is not the first tool to solve most problems in this space

Perhaps interesting: Japanese chess, Shogi, is usually played on a 9x9 board, but there are many variants, which are played on bigger boards. Though games take longer and those variants are played rarely. It scales, but I think it's fa

I read this comment before looking at the article and thought that the grandmaster beat the AI even giving the AI 2 stones. Too bad. But this way around is of course more realistic. And of course you would need to take into consideration th

I remember this being the default for a while already. When I signed up and got an API key, I remember I did turn off the training option specifically, so it must have already been a default to have training on input on.

They jump to such tools, because they are not that invested in making and having the optimal tool for their job, and don't want to spend time setting things up. Especially, not in their own time, if they even do any projects in their o

GP said Google Search is dead, in a way, not Google itself. Google is just to an overwhelmingly part an ad business at this point. And people hate their annoying ads. So people hate Google search, and Google ads. Basically, the majority of

It's also got to do with the structures, that make the governing body of the EU, if it lets bought politicians again and again push hostile agendas, against the will of the people inside the EU, and inching ever closer to that, which w

Hm OK thanks for the pointers. Point 1: I don't know whether tkinter's treeview has screen reader support. I will have to look into that. But what I did already do is to make it focusable, which it wasn't by default, I believ

Usually though, the menu bar only appears on key release, not on holding it down, as part of pressing the ALT+something shortcut.

Additionally, I found, that simply sticking to web standards, instead of reimplementing everything in JavaScript, goes a long way towards accessibility.

I have a traditional desktop app/GUI app, where I have a table (treeview) of words with their translations and pronunciation (like a dictionary). There can be thousands of words in there. Also there is a filter/search field, where

I tend to believe that dark matter is a name for something we don't understand better yet. I don't necessarily mean MOND or anything specifically, but dark matter is just a little too mysterious and convenient for my taste. Maybe

I also tried lsp-mode first but then thought "Let's see what the built-in has to offer, if that's simpler." and am sticking with eglot since then. It does enough for me, and the configuration is manageable.

That's an interesting point actually. Most places in China and even quite rural ones are livable and reachable via public transport including trains. Most of their big cities are very convenient to get around in just by walking and met

You seem to understand the meaning of "to some degree" differently than I. To me it implies that subsidies can happen at different amounts, not that they are all the same. What is an equivalence here is, that the binary flag of &q

by zelphirkalt 22d ago
That's the point I guess, it is not binary, but proponents of absolute free markets see it as binary when they are against regulations, and as non-binary, when it is about competition from abroad. They want to have it both ways.

No, how would they get caught? Even if their LLM outputs verbatim copies of the code, they can simply claim some victim company's employees bypassed the victim company's restrictions and must have used the code as input with an LL

Why are they then even setting up vanilla Emacs in particular? Not impossible, of course, but it seems like a strange choice to make when not wanting to engage with its configuration. Or maybe another question would be who set them up with

It is not due to deployment options. People put all sorts of stuff in docker containers every day. It is rather that few people make an effort to learn a lisp, and fewer still who choose to learn Racket. The few universities teaching good c

Still doubt, that they are unaware of Elisp. Bare bones vanilla Emacs is maybe a bit much to get used to these days, so anyone wanting to configure their Emacs will have opened their init.el or so file and will have put some Elisp snippets

I think in this case it is probably justified, as the claim of "no special syntax" is unfortunately not true. To convey the amount of special syntax, it got crammed into one brief example snippet. Still, far less than most other p

Would need some imports: import cmath from fractions import Fraction And then have to write numbers as strings to input them. From their examples: >>> Fraction('1.414213 \t\n') Fraction(1414213, 100

How does this freezing version and new version and so on differ from having the code in a version controlled repo?
