Would be very interested in reading that, do you have a link or a hint so i can find it?
I wish I had not read this. I am not kidding when I say this is ruining my day thinking about. One thing is they ruin our times. But they are in the game of ruining the rest of time for humankind, too.

Are you like 90? Sound like my Granddad. He’s not saying anyone owes him anything. Stop being a boomer without a cause.

I will start migrating from uv, ty and ruff first thing this weekend. It will be painful but not being dependent on OpenAI will be more than worth it.

That’s a pretty low confidence if we measure confidence in dollars willing to risk
Re:uv Running a Script with Dependencies on Tuesday July 22, 2025 @10:16AM (#44647181)
Could you tell me how you do this in code ? Started using uv in a very old school team and they don’t like uv simply because it’s new. Something like this is what they base it on.
Re:Big Book of R on Friday April 11, 2025 @11:08AM (#43654671)
Been working 8 years with Rs data.table package in research and now after I changed to the private sector I have to use python and pandas. Pandas are so terrible compared to data.table it defies belief. Even tidyverse is better than pandas which is saying something. I miss it so much

Stop this you’re getting yt dlp shut down you dimwit
Yes it pretty much is. This is why your comparison doesn’t work that well. Also in a physical store you can’t shield the rest of the customers from the content some want but others don’t. So your companies no sense really.
How do you do this? This is genius

anything like this for x11?
I'll take qutebrowser any day. Best damn thing I've learned to use since (n)vim.
Re:Show HN: If YouTube had actual channels on Thursday August 15, 2024 @02:19AM (#41253533)
There is a bug when using qutebrowser (using arch linux) - when turning on the sound, the TV turns off (e.g. goes to black-and-white-noise-mode). When turning off the sound, the TV turns on again.

On google chrome, all is well. Just for FYI :) very cool project!

Me neither.

Re:The killer app of Gemini Pro 1.5 is video on Thursday February 22, 2024 @03:33AM (#39464639)
This seems very very interesting. I'm still learning python so probably can't build on this. But like a cheap mans' version of this would be to take a screenshot every couple of minutes, OCR it and send to it gpt for some kind of processing (or not, just keep it as a log). Right? Or am I missing something?
