Also, not just followers. There’s a kinda “merchant” behaviour too I think … signalling and trading in hype perspectives. But to be fair, I’m not sure what the average dev/eng is supposed to do against a climate of…
How do people find these trackpads? I’ve seen them or at least similar in the Kyria at al keyboards[0] and am intrigued but suspicious too. [0] https://splitkb.com/collections/keyboard-kits
Hmmm … my beginner’s rust is getting too rusty. Is this valid rust (it’d be new to me)?! If not, I’m guessing, from memory, the only way at this in rust is to through traits?
Agreed! The only silver lining I can see is that a new perspective may be forced on how well or badly we’ve facilitated learning, usability, generally navigating pain points and maybe even all the dusty presumptions…
Rings true for my impression too. In the end, she’s a YouTuber now, for better or worse, but still puts out what look like thoughtful and informative enough videos, whatever personal vendettas she holds grudges over. I…
> Ironically, the best answer to many of the article's suggestions (thousands rather than millions, easy to modify, etc.) is to write your own software with LLMs. Not sure exactly irony you mean here, but I’ll bite on…
This, for me, has been the question since the beginning. I’m yet to see anyone talk/think about the issue head on too. And whenever I’ve asked someone about it, they’ve not had any substantial thoughts.
Are there good deep dives on how far you can practically this? Especially in combination with headless browser pdf generation? Last time I looked into it, a while ago, my impression was that it would get rickety too…
Yea. Having intentionally stayed away from going down the PDF rabbit hole, but now confronting it again recently … what’s the deal with how sparsely populated the space is with solid and (relatively) light weight…
In the abstract this is an excessive take. The point is that trust is a major component of scientific work and how it functions collectively. A effect being that when that is violated a lot breaks down with a god amount…
I feel like the new kinda-alternative on the rise is to support federation with either ActivityPub, BlueSky/ATProto or both. That is, instead of going for search engines, go for open social. It’s obviously a new and…
So I’m completely out of the loop on the whole de-googling your Android phone thing. How workable is it today and how well would it work on a phone like this?
The idea of GPT or code generators supplanting the need for libraries and languages with large standard libraries is likely jumping ahead with optimism. But … I think the idea is relevant and, security/QA issues aside,…
This is where I landed. CLI for power user mode.
Really hope details come about this with all perspectives being provided. Whether they stuffed up or there are some details that made the situation unworkable for the board, it’s an interesting case study in governance…

Completely with you. It’s time to move on from Latex. Couldn’t hope more for the success of a better alternative!
For me, getting Latex out of the dependency chain is a huge attraction. Just too much cruft and slowness and mysterious errors. Seems way too outdated today. I hope something like typst can provide a nice, fast and…
Hmmm. Can’t help but wonder if it would have been better to have the function utcnow simply return a time zone aware object instead. Would any usages of the function break?
There are theories and principles behind what an AI is doing and a growing craft around how to best use AI that may very well form relatively established “best practices” over time. Yes there’s a significant statistical…
I always figured that once Python got the walrus operator it would be a matter of time until arrow functions of some sort made more and more sense on Python.
My experience in grad school was similar. IMO it decelerates the shift from undergrad to grad work, as you have to overcome the knowledge gulf by immersing yourself in the essentially confusing sea of primary…
> it's turtles all the way down with nostalgia. And yet golden eras do occur, or so it would seem. I’m sure it’s hard to tell when you’re in or near one, which is an interesting topic in its own right, but it doesn’t…
I just came out of reading the article surprised at how little it had to do with gender. The point is there, and reasonably made IMO, but the article is mainly about the culture of front end dev. Honestly, I ponder…
That’s a neat idea there with the FM3! Generally though, it makes total sense that there should be a pressure sensitive or at least continuous press foot switch with the footprint of only a normal foot switch.
