Isn't that a good thing? The main argument I've heard against using bitcoin as currency is that it's too volatile.
There's something satisfying about defragging that has been lost to time. Like oiling a squeaky engine
This blog makes me appreciate my browser's reading mode
Not to be confused with Opencode the harness
Does this count as malware? It sure look like malicious intent, especially seeing that they're hiding the prompt with an ANSI sequence
Will this replace /warp in Opencode? Seeing as it's made by the same team
I assume this repricing is mostly caused by the RAM price surge. It might be time to start optimising...

For the past 2 years, my girlfriend and I have been software engineers at CERN working for the ALICE and CMS experiments. A few months ago we decided to leave and focus full time on building our own products as we realised we'll never make the jump otherwise. Draw on a Map is the first one we've shipped and it already has nearly 300 users.Draw on a Map doesn't need an account for you to draw...

My relationship to subscriptions has changed since I started using
https://kill-the-newsletter.com/ . To show up in my inbox demanding my attention is a big privilege I'm not willing to give away so easily anymore.
Looking forward to the VaticanGPT that speaks in holy canon
The only thing that stops me from switching to jujutsu is that lazygit already paves through all these paper cuts pretty well, and I'd miss their custom patches feature.
I see there's a similar project for JJ, but it doesn't seem nearly as polished https://github.com/Cretezy/lazyjj
Amazing feature for beginners. Is it possible to do this using Arduino?
I would've liked benchmarks against other harnesses showing the caching performance
I find that most datepickers are better than the browser's default. It's a shame that they can't be styled more
I'm surprised cal.zone is not taken already
Another org banning AI code for uncertainty regarding copyright. As a non-law expert, what is the path out of this? Will no one know whether AI generated code is safe until it's tested in court?

Codebases that are too big for the context window and not properly isolated modules. It can't keep track of everything.
Also any situation where the context window is even remotely close to being full. At 80% the degradation is noticeable enough to make me start from scratch

Oh, I never realized this was written by the same guy that made Beads and Gas Town
I would hope not. The copyrighted content seems to be the link rather than anything in the app.
Your example sounds like stopping notepad from rendering copyrighted content

I've been finding it fascinating to see the different approaches to this by the big players. I would've definitely expected Wikipedia to have a blanket ban (even if hard to enforce), but it seems like they are allowed as long as you're not just generating the full article

I found this principle particularly interesting:
Human oversight: The use of AI must always remain under human control. Its functioning and outputs must be consistently and critically assessed and validated by a human.
I'm also in Switzerland, currently my approach is to invest in Vanguard VOO (tracks the S&P500) via Interactive Brokers. There is a way to setup auto transfer and invest every month
As a caveat your money will be in dollars and in American companies, which might not be what you want, but it's worked for me well so far
