I used it at Whole Foods cause it did my prime code and charged me at the same time without digging my phone out of my pocket but also my Whole Foods has bad reception so it’s annoying to use

I wouldn’t call a $100-270 electric bill a “fraction” when it’s about 5% post tax income. I use a single light on a timer and have a small apartment

Especially since these sorts of corporations can get tax breaks or har means of getting regulators to allow spreading the cost. Residential shouldn’t see any increase due to data centers, but they do, and will, supplement them while seeing minimal changes to infrastructure

When people are being told to minimize air conditioning but then these big datacenters are made and aren’t told “reduce your consumption” then it doesn’t matter how big or small the electric bill is, it’s supplementing a multi billion dollar corporation’s toy

Cerebras Code 12 months ago

I use regular cerebras for plan stage in cline, so I’m very excited to try this out

Emacs: The macOS Bug 12 months ago

I liked emacs, still use it for a lot of things, but the instantly tinkering and changing got to me. Took longer to set something up to work how I wanted than to do the thing.

I tried it out on one of my personal repos and I need to give it more time. I do like the way it tracks work, it feels like it would help me to make more commits as I work, cause I’m really bad about that

It does but guess what? You’re not middle class or bourgeois,, so not sure what point you’re trying to make.

You sell your labor, you don’t make money by exploiting others. And the middle class is a vague concept that is situational and effectively meaningless, particularly in the contemporary US

Oh well then. Either spend less on the train (also saving money on gas and maintenance) or stay in suburbia. We pay a premium to live in the city, much more than the $9 so I’m not gonna shed any tears that it’s not much less convenient for someone to not drive

Driving is almost always more convenient on many levels, so it’s not really the best argument start from “it’s just easier”

It’s basically the party of narcissism. Which is why Trump has succeeded. Freedoms insofar as their world and life are concerned. Generally not an externally motivated “hey they need to be free too” unless they can somehow appear morally superior in a US Christian way, like abortion or prootecting marriage.

That study doesn’t focus on people who are used to caviar and champagne as a normal thing versus an out of reach dream. These bourgeoisie think they’re untouchable, and largely are, so the threat of this is the only deterrent we have short of a Place de la Concorde situation

Doom kept breaking, spacemacs is just kinda annoying, and I don’t wanna go through doing my own from scratch again. I basically only use emacs for my couple literate configs because I haven’t found an equal alternative

That’s why I’ve been checking out zed/helix/kakoune lately. Zed to replace VSCode which feels bloated and the other two to replace vim. The keybindings are more intuitive to me and having auto complete of commands out of the box with a full menu showing shortcuts saved me a lot of frustration from day 0

It wasn’t even cops that caught people and you think increased presence prevented crime? How them boots taste?

Half the time they’re not looking at anyone but chatting in a circle. And the NG at the stations are even more useless (I say this as a former NG member) for this

And time and time again it’s been shown the way to prevent crime is social services eliminating the drivers of crime, not the punitive reactive scenario you’re describing

This is why I tried ruff, managing the different settings and stuff and an experienced Python person was getting tedious. Now I have one tool.

I moved to poetry for things a bit ago until I found out about uv recently, it’s so fast I thought it didn’t even do what it asked a couple times.

You should check out something like DNSControl. Makes switching or having multiple easy. I have mine going to a bind zone file and cloudflare, and use the bind file for Unbound

Median rent is also 2x London’s. Median pay is less than 3x. That’s not even counting the rest of cost of living changes

It’ll only affect working class people who commute by driving for whatever reason. As usual the actual rich won’t care. The majority of NYers don’t even own a car. So it’s mostly tourists and people from outside the city (plus ride share/taxis) who are driving.
