Re:Minecraft removing obfuscation in Java Edition on Wednesday October 29, 2025 @04:43PM (#45752755)
One of my favorite mods ever across any game is Create for Minecraft. It is well-made and polished, and sparked a whole ecosystem of mods that work with it. I wonder what possibilities the de-obfuscation can bring to that ecosystem.

I like this. Do you have a link to your simulator code? I might borrow for a personal project of mine if it's ok.

If this is a choice between risking to pay 1.5 billion or just paying 15 mil safely, they might.

Re:[BUG] Claude says "You're absolutely right!" about everything on Wednesday August 13, 2025 @12:38PM (#44890674)
This is actually very frustrating and was partially hindering the progress with my pet assembler.

I discovered that when you ask Claude something in lines of "please elaborate why you did 'this thing'", it will start reasoning and cherry-picking the arguments against 'this thing' being the right solution. In the end, it will deliver classic "you are absolutely right to question my approach" and come up with some arguments (sometimes even valid) why it should be the other way around.

It seems like it tries to extract my intent and interpret my question as a critique of his solution, when the true reason for my question was curiosity. Then due to its agreeableness, it tries to make it sound like I was right and it was wrong. Super annoying.

Recording music.

I have recently started recording Rachmaninoff's Piano Concerto no. 2 using some DAW and orchestral instruments from my digital piano. It is not easy to make sound good, and a major undertaking since even the first part is 10 minutes long. But it is a fascinating process to me. I hope it turns out ok.

Nice! Also would be cool to see the text positioned above the face and translated just like in the cyberpunk gif.
Re:uBlock Origin review on Friday September 03, 2021 @10:58PM (#28411707)
uBlock Origin is cool, but the reason I stopped using it is that any web page stopped opening on my work PC. Never found out why, used Adblock Plus since. Considering going back now.

I love git even with all of its inconsistencies and complexity. May I recommend you an interactive tutorial (not mine)? https://learngitbranching.js.org/
Re:New in Git: switch and restore on Sunday August 01, 2021 @08:35PM (#28031659)
Well, maybe it indicates specifically that they had no meeting :)
Re:New in Git: switch and restore on Sunday August 01, 2021 @08:30PM (#28031622)
That is true, but I think IntelliJ provides you with the list of commands it executed to get there.

It is small yet, only 2 articles, but I plan to write more. It is about building stuff (for example dicsord bot with speech recognition) explained in simple terms and with detailed steps.

Hello, everyone. This is a node.js version of PgRebase[1][2] which solves its dependency problems. I described the main problem with postgresql functions, triggers and views it solves in the README. Any feedback would be greatly appreciated.

That is true given automatic error correction can backfire, I don't see how git git -> git autocorrect can backfire.

I misread the title as "It's a crime NOT to visit a website after being told not to visit it" at first and it made a lot more sense that way.
