There's a lot of things you could attribute it to: AI, the economy, career transitions. For me personally, more interested in freelance/consulting work at my stage of life vs. full-time gigs. AI is definitely disruptive…
Good screw them. They put a god damn button on the keyboard for their crap AI. Everyone just uses the smartest AI and has zero loyalty to your garbage AI. Look how quickly Meta abandoned open-source AI when they got…
Yup exactly this, I had to look it up because I don't even remember what they were called but I vaguely remember seeing them in the 90s.

The product/website itself is interesting as a founder who believes heavily in implementing simulations to rigourously test complex systems. However I noticed lots of screenshots and less substance about how it actually…
This is so absolutely fundamental to US strategic advantage. A huge reason we have so many unicorns is because doing business and scaling in the US is easier than EU or other places. A huge part of why the Manhattan…
Same, the desktop app worked great. Probably for the best though, ideally you want to pull your codes from a phone and password from your desktop device.
Use a password manager and use a SEPARATE second factor authenticator not tied to the password manager. I personally use Authy (though I think it's been deprecated) and Bitwarden. I recently got a Google scam call from…
Tried codex but so far feels a lot slower than claude code. Perhaps because I'm on the basic plan?
First time I was able to install Codex with no NPM errors. Gonna give it a shot, seems a lot slower than Claude Code but I'm only using basic Pro with ChatGPT vs. Max 100.
Author makes some good points though, I think many of us are feeling a bit of AI fatigue. There's so many platforms and services available now, and a large group will likely be vaporware soon as the market battle plays…
Claude/Anthropic is more focused on productivity (Coding, Spreadsheets, Reports). ChatGPT seems more focused on general-purpose LLM (Research, Cooking, Writing, Image Generation). Makes sense that MS would partner with…
That's always the issue with these directory indexer services which try to scrape lots of data. The quality is always questionable. If users actually adopt it you can have them report or fix the data based on consensus…

FBI is shooting itself in the foot with these sort of policies. I can understand not wanting to hire someone smoking weed on the way to an interview, but in your spare time? What about all the law enforcement staff who…
What I always wonder is why strive for productivity at all? I see all these self-help blog posts about boosting productivity, getting more out of your day, etc. They all seem to eschew the virtues of productivity in…
You may be able to find the Ikea Jerker on craigslist or other classifieds. I got mine from a college student for relatively cheap, I think around $40 or $60. It works great as a standing desk but you don't have any…
Thanks for this write up. I didn't know about enumerate. I never thought of swapping variables as in example 4 either. I noticed one small mistake in section 9: d[keys] = values[i] Should be: d[key] = values[i]
This is stupid. The article claims the term gamer itself isn't appropriate but the examples it provides are wrong. People who enjoy films may often be called film buffs or even more generically movie goers. People who…
I was just reading an article yesterday stating that Windows 7 had twice the growth rate in market share of Windows 8. Pretty dumb of Microsoft to alienate their customers but I suppose its nothing new.
This is exactly like 99 Gamers, which is also free. It was started about a year ago too, according to the original launch post on reddit. I recently started using it to get rid of Xbox games collecting dust. The…
I never actually tried their warehouse fulfillment service but I swear by Amazon for selling used gadgets. Amazon gets a lot of traffic from consumers making it a great way to sell something quickly. I remember listing…
This seems kind of absurd. What are they doing, looking at an IP block belonging to the DoD and then laying claim that the DoD doesn't know their geography because a couple of people on their network did their quiz…
Actually Sierra published the original Half-life game but didn't help develop it or Counter-Strike. CS was created by Gooseman (Minh Lee) and is arguably the most popular Half-Life mod ever. I played that game for…
