it's 2026, apple's computers do justify their price.

this "documentary" has already been on all national news in India for past 2-3 days, so this is not an example of Streisand effect. Most people who turn on TV once a day are aware of this.

Our government is run by monkeys

except the fine print is decided by bureaucrats, and not politicians themselves. your bias against the current government is blinding your logic.

apple music is the best advert for spotify

been there with crows. they attack you for a month or so.

is this sarcasm?

this is the non-vandalized version of the doc if anyone's looking for it

It's really easy to shoot yourself in the foot by using global mutable variables. How do you guard against those when using gevent in production?

After a long search (5 years), finally happily settled with selfhosted miniflux.

So should I move it to docker? Since X11 socket will be shared, I'm assuming screen sharing might work

why would you miss apple music? spotify wipes the floor with apple music!?

Even though we are currently replacing ES (hosted on elastic.co) with Postgres for ~100M docs + low QPS usecase, it's no real competition to Elasticsearch. There are better™ alternatives for niches (like Algolia), but nothing just works like elasticsearch at scales when not everything can fit in a single machine.

You get a waiver from legal persecution when you comply with the new IT law, something Twitter hasn't done yet.

I was in the same boat - until I jumped over to RSS feeds using a selfhosted Miniflux instance.

wow I'm going to have lots of opinions about this.

1. A lot of people on this thread are concerned about licensing issues with GPL etc. I am sure Github will restrict the beta until it figures out that stuff.

2. I wonder if eventually our corrections to the code suggested by the model would be used to feedback to the model, and if that'll lead to a differential pricing - If I let it see my code, I get charged lesser.

3. I believe a mini-GPT-3 model is where it's at. GPT-3 (and similar) models look to be to too big to run locally. I've been using TabNine for past year or so & it gives me anywhere between 5-10% productivity boost. But one of the main reasons why it works so well is because it trains on my repo as well. TabNine is based off GPT-2 from what i've heard.

4. prediction: Microsoft is probably going to milk GPT-3. Expect a bumpy ride.

5. In all likeliness, this would be a great tool to make developers productive, rather than take their jobs - at least at levels that are more than just code-coolie.

6. Eventually all tasks with enough data around it will see automation using AI.

I'm curious as to how relevant Copilot would be when autocompleting code that is specific to my codebase in particular, like Tabnine completes most used filters as soon as I type the db table name for the query. I'm a big tabnine fan because it provides this feature. I'm much more often looking to be suggested a line than an entire function because I'm mostly writing business logic.

also tabnine is useless in multi-lines completes. which is where co-pilot should be strong.

This is quite true. Right now we are working to move our $(msg queue software) from $(one of its market leaders) to AWS's in-house offering, because the network transfer cost is twice the cost of our subscription on the $(one of its market leaders).

it does feel like the whole issue blew up so much because AWS & Elastic.co are unable to work together. We many never know the details, so can't say who's in the wrong here.

owner of the content is held responsible

it will be published in govt's library, to which you login using Aadhar linked creds

but what if I generate my binaries on a CI-CD server?

that'd be rewrite

Also a big plus is the abstraction poetry provides over virtualenvs. I can just do `poetry install && poetry shell` to enable virtualenv from nothing. This is a nice upgrade over virtualenvwrapper.

The only adblocker I trust is uBlock from gorhill. I used Adblock way back in 2013-14 and jumped ship when they started allwoing some ads.

nedbat was very respectful when I once asked a rather stupid question on #python (I was a noob back then). I am very grateful for his replies that day because it led me to go deeper into python.

All sizable codebases eventually grow their own patterns & utils that have similar abstractions. I'd rather spend my time writing business logic than boilerplate.

There is functools.wraps in standard library for similar "delegation" in decorators

It's not optional for all software. Eg: Authy only publishes their electron based app through snap

Opera mini used a proxy to compress & downsize content (including images) on the fly
