If you look at this graph and your prescient thought is "haha take that MAGA" then you are a brainwashed ideologue. This graph gives a window into the layers of rot in our political system. The complexity is perfectly represented by its form but it seems like your graph is just a big arrow that says "orange man bad".

That's the current status quo. The UK can't sue you, extradite you, or really do anything. Assuming that your service providers are US based and you follow US law, they can pound sand. In practice, the US is the only country powerful enough to enforce its laws extraterritoriality. The UK trying to enforce its internet laws on me? An American citizen? Funny joke

Because those setups are too opinionated and mix too much stuff which makes them unstable. If you want a cohesive desktop experience, Mint Cinnamon is what you're looking for

Claude Code 2.0 10 months ago

I wish the Cline extension was more performant. It has a 1000+ ms startup time for VScode and stutters occasionally. In terms of workflow though, it's my absolute favorite. I simply don't think the models are there yet for fully agentic coding in any reasonably complex/novel codebase. Cline lets me supervise the LLM step by step.

I think Linus should be more respectful of other people

You all need to grow thicker skin. If we're really engineers, we can't dance around criticism. Linus' comment was about the code; he never insulted the developer. If you attach your self worth to the code you write that's your problem.

What would you have him do? Sugarcoat it? "Uh actually sweetie please rework this function it's not quite there".

It's a PR; honest, unbiased feedback on the code (and optionally how to improve it) is the only thing that matters. If the code is garbage then the reviewer needs to say so.

I don't need to. Just look at your immediate surroundings and ask yourself "who are the millionaires responsible for these products I enjoy?". Every component in your phone, computer, the chair in which you sit, the building you are in, the clothes you wear, and the car you drive. As a rule, people get rich because they create things, not because they exploit others. That's how capitalism works and it does work

This is good. The central claim here is: if you can afford to pay $1 million, then you are almost certainly going to be a net benefit to our society.

That's a far better and more meritocratic vetting process than some lotto visa with a 10 year backlog.
