It seems like these trusts should all be delegated to the OS unless there's a really specific need.

Cool. I am applying to jobs and it seems graph theory is popular in the "Leet Code" questions pace. So very timely, thank you! And clever domain name :)

this is cool

Claude to Prod. Every day.

I've been trying to find a list I had previously of sites hosting webpages at top-level domains. I think there was a webpage you could access at http://ai./ for a long time.

Claude has been doing this already.

Shame- it is my favorite Markdown formatter.

Do you think they woulda been caught if they used duck.ai?

I think Firefox is doing a good job overall.

What’s wrong with using work offered for free?

Sure. Although you can expect build/test time to take a while on bigger projects, so I think it washes out a lot of the time.

If the new AGI benchmark is "be Einstein/Feynman" then we've hit AGI.

Looks like it's recommended to use zero-config now, which is great! My new .ruff.toml is just:

  line-length = 300

Do you think Bun's migration was irresponsible?

Loved Damn Small Linux, a Knoppix variant.

Neat. Where can I submit feedback? Cargo.lock shouldn’t be in gitignore :)

CAN you always avoid a bike lane? I don't think so. There's lots of shared bike lanes/right turn lanes, bike lanes that terminate unexpectedly, etc.

I don't think they're wildly different purposes. They're the same purpose (to set shell settings) with different scopes (all users, one user, interactive shells only, etc.).

Would definitely consider for my next laptop. What’s the best solution for “Mac Subsystem for Linux”?

The "LLMs shouldn't be writing code" take is starting to feel like the new "we should all just use No-Code."

We’ve been trying to "build a better layer" for thirty years. From Dreamweaver to Scratch to Bubble, the goal was always the same: hide the syntax so the "logic" can shine. But it turns out, the syntax wasn't the enemy—the abstraction ceiling was.

Hey man, you’re not blocked. Read you loud and clear. Happy Valentine’s Day to you and yours.

Hey, Merry Christmas. Thanks for posting.

Freedom through obscurutiy

Along these lines, Go eliminates many formatting decisions at the syntax level. E.g.,

  func main()
  {
          fmt.Println("HELLOWORLD")
  }

is not just non-standard formatting, but illegal Go syntax. Similarly, extra parentheses around if clauses are not allowed.

Ha, I use Deno just as a formatter also! It’s great for Markdown formatting.

I love RDP! It really is an impressive technology. I work in-office somewhere, and when I'm on campus, RDPing into my desk laptop from a conference room client has native performance, with audio even.

What is the best remote desktop server for Linux?

Yeah, but unlike bundle, uv locks in your Python version and downloads that Python version as needed. It’s like bundle and rbenv combined.

It’s always heralded as a great CS debate, but Tanenbaum’s position seems so obviously silly to me.

Tanenbaum: Microkernels are superior to monolithic kernels.

Torvalds: I agree— so go ahead and write a Production microkernel…
