Yes, very. ML and LLM has its specific uses, but every company is slapping “AI” onto everything and it’s so stupid. Have you heard about the AI rice cooker…?[1] You might enjoy the talk Adam Conover had with Ed…
Exactly! If you only look at the commute, you get ridiculous things like commuter trains, that only run in the morning in one direction and in the afternoon in the other. In the Netherlands for example, lots of people…

I now run NixOS, so that’s a non-issue for me. But even so, it’s not hard, you have to install the ZFS package and make sure it’s included in your initramfs (if you use ZFS for / ). On arch I used the linux-lts kernel…
Desktop, Laptop, NAS and Server all run on ZFS and push snapshots to an extra backup pool on the Server (colocated in a DC). Those backups are also pushed to an offsite location (with a hosting provider). Laptop and NAS…
I use colmena[1] to manage one nixos configuration for multiple machines: - laptop - desktop - server - rpi nas I also wipe my entire rootfs every boot with a zfs snapshot rollback[2] using the impermanence module[3] to…
Not OP, but I can highly recommend just using the programming language you already use to make key-value map to and then converting that to JSON. That way you only have 1 syntax to worry about. In my case that’s Python…
Do you have any references about what they got wrong and what the more traditional stories are? I expected they took some liberties for storytelling purposes, but if it’s as egregious as you make it out to be, I’d love…
Exactly, self-driving cars do not solve the car problem; Good public transportation does.
This is no perversion of capitalism. Companies have only one responsibility: to increase profits to the shareholders. All other responsibilities have to be legally enforced; stuff like worker safety, food safety,…

I’m also very happy with my Ergodox EZ, and a trackball mouse. The configuration of the keyboard is highly flexible and super easy, and no software on the pc is needed (only to flash the updated config). I’ve also used…
I also prefer my python to stay simple. Maat looks really interesting for this use-case.
I haven't heard of RQ before, but on first glance they look pretty similar. The main difference I see is that meesee workers are always setup as python programs, whereas RQ workers are separate programs. (calling a `rq`…
Personally I prefer meesee[1], because setting up Celery or other big worker systems is always a lot of work, and they have more components than I usually need. Meesee is an elegantly simple worker system (written in…
