YMMV but switching to vertical tabs might be an improvement. Especially with such a wide screen, and since most websites (especially articles) only use a narrow column in the center, it’s been great for me.

Enshittification

Herndon and Dryhurst are frequent collaborators, and xhairymutantx is their work. So they didn’t just prompt an LLM to make the image, they trained the model themselves. And they specifically trained the model on pictures of Herndon (who has distinctive red, braided hair).

I’m personally a really big fan of their work (which I don’t expect everyone to be), but the picture that’s being circulated in articles and apparently sold at auction without context is pretty uninspiring.

Hmm… I admit I didn’t follow the video and who was speaking very well and didn’t notice hostility that others seem to pick up on. I’ve worked with plenty of people who turn childish when a technical discussion doesn’t go their way, and I’ve had the luxury of mostly ignoring them, I guess.

It sounded like he was asking for deeper specification than others were willing or able to provide. That’s a constant stalemate in software development. He’s right to push for better specs, but if there aren’t any then they have to work with what they’ve got.

My first response here was responding to the direct comparison of languages, which is kind of apples and oranges in this context, and I guess the languages involved aren’t even really the issue.

I think most people would agree with you, but that isn’t really the issue. Rather the question is where the threshold for rewriting in Rust vs maintaining in C lies. Rewriting in any language is costly and error-prone, so at what point do the benefits outweigh that cost and risk? For a legacy, battle-tested codebase (possibly one of the most widely tested codebases out there), the benefit is probably on the lower side.

Having tasted a few dog foods and treats, I agree.

I’m guessing the pumpkin spice isn’t too strong either, but dried pumpkin is the first “flavorful” ingredient, at least.

But these do have pumpkin in them.

My dog goes nuts for pumpkin puree, but hates greenies, so I dunno

I got super sick from this. It probably didn’t help that I was trying soothe my upset stomach with more peanut butter.

im multisexual which means i like multiple sex

I can finally finish my Gyro Zeppeli cosplay

I got a Fire Kids tablet for my kid to use occasionally, but the interface is so horrible and the parental controls are abysmally bad, it’s been trash from the get-go. I wish I could figure out how to get stock Android on it.

This is my perspective on a lot of art and music. If something is universally hated, I want to know why it is and if I can find any redeeming qualities. A lot of my favorite things have that characteristic of doing something very specific extremely well but being generally unlikeable.

Switching to Linux or… maybe?

Either #2 or #3. /usr/bin and /usr/local/bin exist for that purpose, but some people prefer to keep personal scripts and such in home, maybe as part of a dotfiles repo or something, and so just add ~/.dotfiles/scripts or something to PATH.

My window decorations are off globally in KDE. I don’t remember how I did it. It might be a theme I had to download?

An acronym is a kind of initialism that can be pronounced like a word e.g. NASA. Your reasoning for why it can’t be pronounced as a word (“sequel”) depends on it not being an acronym. But, since many people do pronounce it that way, it is, in fact, an acronym and can be pronounced that way.

Your logic is circular
