> In my city public transit fares only cover something like 10% of the cost. Isn’t that fairly typical? Quite a few areas have their public transit fully funded by users and some even make a substantial profit.…
I've done this wherever I lived. In a large city, you can often just walk in one direction, (or take transport in one direction), find yourself in a new neighbourhood and discover loads of interesting things (culture,…

The most extreme example would be child prostitution or child porn, in my opinion. But I guess it would be authoritarian to deny people from purchasing such services/items???
What do you use as a harness?
Quite a few countries do not allow dual citizenship. So a person who was born in the US and is therefore US citizen at birth will not be allowed to have that country's citizenship until they revoke the US one. China and…
I have never ever heard a commentator say something like "Arsenal are currently winning with 2-0 against X". It is always leading: "Arsenal are currently leading with 2 goals against X".
Did you manage to get it to work without a functioning screen on the phone? I believe that unless your phone already has debugging enabled and the machine was already added a trusted machine for debugging, you're out of…
I agree, it also goes against the Linux "way of doing things". For example, Opnsense uses the dhcp portions of dnsmasq only (and unbound for the dns parts) which just feels 'wrong'.
Definitely does. I used to wear them every night and they definitely improved my sleep. But then I also had instances where my ear was blocked with wax for several days. YMMV
I always see SP a combination of time and risk. I think a lot of people do not include risk in the estimate. So a story might be estimated at 3SP to implement but there's a high risk that it would blow out (e.g. idea…
As someone who works in a Microsoft shop with Copilot, I am curious to see what happens. Due to data governance it will be difficult to move to a different provider. At the same time, this price hike is so large that…
GitLab is what drove me to forgejo, it just became unsustainably slow.
And once you start self-hosting, you realise how slow the 'modern' web actually is. I host forgejo on a single NUC with a bunch of other stuff in Proxmox, the page loads in 6ms! Immich is not quite as fast but still a…
I wonder if this is going to push more software to stacks like .Net where you can do most things with zero third-party dependencies. Or, conversely, encourage programming languages to increase the number of features in…
I was very surprised when I gave them a go after hearing good stuff about them here and on other techy parts of the internet: After using their website and their app for a few hours I pretty much immediately decided to…
Definitely! The amount of third-party (non-testing related) dependencies needed for most .NET applications is very manageable and the dependencies themselves (generally) don't come with further third-party dependencies…
It's definitely a gray area in some countries. A few decades ago our family got a 'proper' company with a shop front to install a satellite dish for us. We were then able to watch the Sky Tv from the UK even though we…
Interesting that it refused to boot. If I have a lower wattage charger connected on booth it shows me that information but I can just press enter to continue. It's just a warning. Maybe it's a bios setting? Workaround…
What is the difficulty in getting away from gmail? I did it a few years ago and I simply signed up for Fastmail and had gmail forward all email there. It forwards to a specific e-mail address so I can see if there are…
If what you are doing is novel then I don't think yolo'ing it will help either. Agents don't do novel. I've even noticed this in meeting summaries produced by AI: A prioritisation meeting? AI's summary is concise,…
I use the non-Plus version as my work machine (not by choice). It's massive and heavy and feels less snappy than my personal X1 Nano after all the corporate malware uses up most of the CPU and RAM. The screen resolution…
What annoys me the most is that the information has become much less dense. There's a lot of unnecessary repetition. I feel like I need to feed every article through an LLM just to get a summary of it.
I still have one of those lying around in the draw. It's the backup phone and every time I or my partner needs to use it I am surprised at how well it still works.
I found it completely unreadable, similar to reading code without syntax highlighting. Maybe he should have had AI fix up the grammar/spelling for him...
