Ah that makes sense, thanks!
I had been using LineageOS + microG for many years on my Pixel 3. I upgraded to a Pixel 8 and tried out GrapheneOS and the install experience was good, but I found some odd performance quirks - apps would be slow to…
It appears to use a lot of memory too, at least in Firefox. I can't have more than a few Linear tabs open at a time.
Boring isn't it? Reading half a book every single day. Not for him though, he loves it.
There's a lot in here that I which I knew more about. You often hear about think tanks in Australia, and know they have political leanings but I wasn't aware of their precise nature. Shows my ignorance, but the…
I've been using Envoy Gateway in my homelab and have found it to be good for my modest needs (single node k3s cluster running on an old PC). I needed to configure the underlying EnvoyProxy so that it would listen on…
Brilliant, I'm anxiously awaiting Australian pricing details (and release dates...) but could definitely seeing myself getting one of these as my first VR device, and the controller looks great too. Being able to run…
Proton/Wine is so good these days. Rarely have I had an issue running a game in the last 3 or 4 years. Sometimes EA/Ubisoft games that have their own special launchers don't work immediately, but ProtonDB and the Proton…
Agree. It was getting in the way of me spending time with the family because I was distracted mulling over the puzzles. I had thought last year that they could peak the difficulty around the middle of the month and…
In my experience, the people using AI to make programs are still programmers. As in, they were trained in programming pre-AI. Managers are using AI to output manager stuff - documents, spreadsheets, etc. Similarly,…
Thank you!
It depends on the ORM, I know SQLAlchemy and Django ORM have some Postgres specific features (e.g. full text search/indexing). Some also let you extend the ORM to add your own features, or at least write raw SQL.
When I worked as a pizza delivery guy (favorite casual job I had during uni) we only used those big pizza rocker things, which I think are better than these wheels. Easier to clean too.
Insightful article, thanks for writing/sharing!
I think the syntax highlighting for this could make it more readable. Make the leading `\\` a different color to the string content.
I deleted Twitter years ago as I was getting over it. When Bluesky starting take off it sounded like it was "Twitter but better", so I created an account. Felt just the same as Twitter. Lot's of rage bait, hot takes and…
There's a term I read about a long time ago, I think it was "aesthetic completeness" or something like that. It was used in the context of video games whose art direction was fully realized in the game, i.e. increases…
I take my 18-month old to daycare each morning, before parking my car a few streets away and catching the train into work. It is terrifying to think that one day I might just forget to drop him off. My partner usually…
Great article. > Don't underestimate the value to your soul of good work. This in particular resonated with me. My concern is not really that AI will take over my job and replace me (if it is genuinely better at my job…
Some of my colleagues will copy/paste several paragraphs of LLM output into ongoing slack discussions. Totally interrupts the flow of ideas. Shits me to tears.
Terrible performance for me too. Firefox, 3600X and 6800XT. Especially as the header morphs when you scroll down. I don't mind the icons and general aethetic direction, but seriously undermined by the very noticeable,…
I installed it a few months ago, I thought it was pretty good! I couldn't find a prebuilt package mirror in or near Australia though so it was painfully slow to install updates, and I didn't stick with it.
You can install/run guix using a nonfree kernel to get around that. https://wiki.systemcrafters.net/guix/nonguix-installation-gu...
This is a bit tangential but I've noticed lots of comments aping the style of Matt Walsh. Not just on HN either, but probably more here than other places I visit. Anyway, I guess this would be useful cluster the "Matt…
Lol, this reminded me of those engravings we put on spacecraft. Like, if we had to communicate the algorithm to an alien civilization then sure, this might be the best way to do it!…
