And at only 10x the price!

All I really want my TV to do is turn on, quickly and reliably, and display whatever is plugged into HDMI1. The market is flooded with “Smart” (actually Surveillance) TVs so not buying one isn’t really practical.

I moved my team from GitHub Actions to RWX and I can't even express how much better it has been. It’s literally 10 times faster, qualitatively different.

This is great. Alexis King actually stated that, had she known how popular “Parse, Don’t Validate” had been, she would have written it in a language more widely used than Haskell.

I observed the same thing happening when we transitioned from analog land line telephones to everyone having mobile phones. The plain old telephone was crispy clean, and cellphone calls by comparison were just barely intelligible. It's so bad that I'm honestly surprised that texting didn't take over sooner. It wasn't until Apple FaceTime Audio that calls started to sound good again, and it still isn't the default.

Electricians, sure, but carpenters? I figured these buildings always had steel frames.

This doesn't seem like a niche that isn't filled. Am I missing out on something by still just using iTerm2 and tmux?

Sometimes I think the RFC editors are trolling us.

This sounds an awful lot like https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Company_scrip, which has been illegal for a long time and for good reason.

Either AI wrote this, or the author thinks this is what humans sound like now.

Pour one out for anyone who hoped to start a new brand.

Is laser printing more feasible? I've had the same Brother black & white laser for almost a decade and it's more than adequate for everything I do. If I ever need color, I send it off to a service that has much nicer printers than most people would ever want in their homes.

Untrue since the introduction of zstd support in PostgreSQL 15.

> If you encountered a cheetah in pre-industrial times (and survived the meeting), you might think it was impossible for anything to go faster.

Fun fact, there is no historical evidence of an adult human ever dying from a cheetah attack. They are naturally shy, and a lot smaller than you may realize.

LSPs are already miles better than grep-like tools. This was true for humans as much as it is for LLMs. It's a shame that Claude still treats it as a second-class citizen (both in the app itself and in the training). A simple "remember to use LSP instead of grep" is usually enough to get it on the right track.

There's a huge difference between a program which can be verified as correct by static analysis, and a program which can only be verified as correct by running it. Python is the latter (though maybe in between with gradual typing). The iteration loop just collapses when an agent is driving an LSP in a statically typed language.

Who goes out of their way to “star” a GitHub repo, and what does that even mean? Is it a “like” button, a tip jar, or a bookmark? Does this bare any relationship to the importance, quality, novelty, trustworthiness, or any other property of the repo other than number of stars?

What a dumb metric to focus on.

We did this with MotherDuck, and without introducing a new language. Every tenant has their own isolated storage and compute, so it’s trivial to grant internal users access to specific tenants as needed. DuckDB’s SQL dialect is mostly just Postgres’ with some nice ergonomic additions and a host of extra functionality.

It would be a shame if somebody modified this to trigger Bluetooth and Wi-Fi deauthentication attacks.

DuckDB had the right idea: just allow some flexibility in the relative order of the `select` and `from` clauses, and make a few other concessions for ergonomics. This then becomes valid:

    from events      -- table is first, which enables autocomplete
    select
        count(),     -- * is implied, easier to type
        customer_id, -- trailing commas allowed everywhere
    group by all     -- automatically groups by all non-aggregate columns
    order by all     -- orders rows by all columns in selected order

You can't trust a product that uses ads, because then you are the product.

If you were to rank all of the C compilers in the world and then rank all of the welfare systems in the world, this vibe-coded mess would be at approximately the same rank as the American welfare system. Especially if you extrapolate this narcissistic, hateful kleptocracy out a few more years.

Couldn't coding agents just run `tail -f *`?

Indie games don’t have a budget for playtesting, but they can probably swing a GA account.

I just today realized io_uring is meant to be read as "I.O.U. Ring" which perfectly describes how it works.

eTAXI is just one such solution

> You’re already flying this route with a 300-seat plane where 80+ people in business class generate most of your profit. Give those passengers a supersonic plane, cut the flight time in half, and charge the same price.

What does that end up doing to the cost of a seat in coach?

Haven’t seen a loading progress spinner on a landing page in a while. The Ruby website now loads almost as slowly as Ruby on Rails boots up.

“Most people” is not even remotely accurate.
