How am I meant to take this clown's advice seriously when he's the guy who invented vibe coding? Probably has been a net negative for students.

No, git does not work 'just fine' with large files. It works like ass.

Does it handle large files better? I thought it was just an improved interface over the git store.

Exactly. If large files suck in git then that's because the git backend and cloning mechanism sucks for them. Fix that and then let us move on.

How is it quadratic? You do 1000 checks every character in the haystack but that's still O(n)

Haha, this got me

this is loser stuff

I'd rather work in a different field than be forced to use a LLM or vibe code all day.

AI? :vomit_emoji:

Didn't I say I wasn't interested?

I was talking about having mass in orbit from mined asteroids (or the moon), like the grandparent comment. This survey is based entirely on launched SBSP:

> This study assessed lifecycle cost and emissions based on the following scenario: SBSP systems are developed on the ground in the 2030s and launched to low-Earth orbit (LEO), and then transferred to and assembled in geostationary orbit (GEO) in the 2040s.

Furthermore, one main benefit of SBSP over nuclear is that the receivers don't need to be connected to the grid; each household or piece of infrastructure can have one. This would help manage situations like the power outage in Spain earlier this year or the situation at the start of KSR's Ministry for the Future where a deadly heatwave in India is made 10x worse by coinciding power outages.

No. The best thing you can do with a lot of mass in LEO is construct solar power stations that beam energy down to Earth in the form of microwaves. This is what the second book, Critical Mass, gets into. Receivers on Earth wouldn't provide as much power as solar, but would be much easier to construct and work 24/7, no matter the weather. This would be highly useful for reducing climate change and increasing climate resilience.
