Halos == HAL OS ? That didn't work out so well in 2001

The best thing I ever told Claude to do was "Swear profusely when discussing code and code changes". Probably says more about me than Claude, but it makes me snicker.
A lot of the complaints about these tools seems to revolve around their current lack of ability to innovate for greenfield or overly complex tasks. I would agree with this assessment in their current state, but this…

Reminds me of the Acts of Gord, but with less malice. https://www.actsofgord.com/
I cribbed these from someplace - slightly different approach: ################################################################### # Add directory to path pathadd() { newelement=${1%/} if [ -d "$1" ] && ! echo $PATH |…
Compiler Design. Dragon book and all. Learned a ton from that class
If you're patient, you can just hold 'up' anywhere and it will eventually clear the level. It started taking quite awhile at level 20 or so - I got bored and gave up.
This is further proof of Internet Rule 44
Just plain census and GDP data shows that the richer you are, the fewer children you have. As poor countries climb out of poverty, their birth rate drops. As rich countries get richer, their birth rate drops below…
IaaS - Ideas As A Service. There's your idea.
I'm dating myself, but my school had touch-tone service for the same thing. My trusty war-dialing script and I didn't fail to enroll into any class I wanted either. Ahh, the good ol' days.
Not quite ready for prime time, but I've spent the last couple of weeks building a fast, free, parametric part library for makers to use for widget-type parts rather than complex models. I found the current set of part…
100% this. I've interviewed a great many candidates over the years, and the coding exercise has always been an incredibly valuable litmus test. It gives the interviewer a chance to see whether or not the potential…
"MOM! HANG UP THE PHONE!"
While this is tempting, it falls apart as soon as the development team matures and grows beyond more than a few people. What often happens especially in larger organizations is that bugs and/or changes come up and…
Yeah, I'm confused. Is OP suggesting that no work needs to be polished ever or that polishing is just a job for someone else?
Someone long ago, probably here, suggested binding the sequence 'K-J' to 'ESC'. Now I don't even have to take my fingers off the home row.
You forgot the fresh cup of really hot tea :) https://hitchhikers.fandom.com/wiki/Infinite_Improbability_D...
Just give me a WebGPU backed canvas and I'll take it from there using the same toolkits I do for the desktop.
I hit 'widescreen mode' and now I can't get back.
Yeah, but what you're saying is essentially "I don't need the recipe anymore - I can do this by feel", which is awesome, but who then is the recipe for except people who are trying to learn? Maybe throw us a bone :)
Exactly this. It's this sort of thing that annoys me about recipes in general, but bread recipes in particular.
