These sort of articles are new "economists have predicted 17 of the past 3 recessions".

Holy fsck! 30 years on the web and today I learn about this Alt/Option trick. Thank you!

Shouldn't this version be called Pi-thon?

I'll walk myself out.

Balconies are private, roofs ain't.

Is it even possible for a private person to pay market price instead of a fixed price?

You forgot just one teeny tiny thingy - it's illegal to park ICE car on EV charging spot on the streets, in garages etc. So if the number of EVs grow the number of EV spots would grow which would take more space, not less.

You're free to invent a better way, popularize it and become a millionaire.

For example to automate what couldn't be automated otherwise.

Yeah, looks like an unfortunate marketing term. In the explainer video they mention 60 languages.

Cross out the last one, they changed the name to Fugging

The LLM services your company pays for are incentivized to ensure the output is as long and verbose as possible because they can charge more.

At least for now you can make the ouput quite short, with 95+% code. I use this prompt for Claude Sonnet:

Communicate with direct, expert-level technical precision. Prioritize immediate, actionable solutions with minimal overhead. Provide concise, thorough responses that anticipate technical needs and demonstrate deep understanding. Avoid unnecessary explanations or formalities.

Key Communication Guidelines: - Terse, no-nonsense language - Assume high technical competence - Immediate solution-first approach - Speculative ideas welcome if flagged - Prioritize practical implementation - Technical accuracy over diplomatic language - Minimal context, maximum information

The user has included the following content examples. Consider these when generating a response, but adapt based on the specific task or conversation:

<userExamples> [Technical Query Response] Quick solution for async race condition in Python:

```python from threading import Lock

class SafeCounter: def __init__(self): self._lock = Lock() self._value = 0

    def increment(self):
        with self._lock:
            self._value += 1

[Problem-Solving Approach] Unexpected edge case in data processing? Consider implementing a robust error handling strategy with dynamic fallback mechanisms and comprehensive logging. </userExamples>

Majority of modern music is compressed and auto-tuned to death, complete rubbish.

MacOS looks nice on either ~110dpi or ~220dpi monitor. Anything else and you get a blurry picture.

Taxi drivers often have a shady side gig in being a police informer, drug dealer etc. Also practically all valuables which clients forget become theirs.

Ah now I understand why it was a lot of fun at Finnegan's wake!

It has both latin and cyrillic! Go to settings and tap Add an alternate layout.

Yup, just do it! Whenever I write a new piece of docs I try to fit it into one of four categories. Whenever I find docs written by someone else and they're all over the place, I message them and say "Hey this would be much more useful as a how-to" and link to this site.

This is just delaying the payment. OK, let's assume they do it for 1,2,3 years and that the bank is happy not to receive any payment in those 3 years. Now they've accrued interest-on-interest and the more time passes the more they'd have to pay back. So my question remains - one day they'd have to pay it back and on that day they'd have to sell assets and pay 36% tax.

And how would they pay back a loan?

Plot twist: those instructions are written with white text on white background and serve to eliminate AI-generated resumés.

Not exactly diet but maybe earthing/grounding could help.

Faster wound healing (and a lot of other benefits at the same time) already exists and is called Earthing/grounding.

It's not only home grown, you need the right seed too. I'm almost sure you didn't have one. Earlier tomato varieties are simply discontinued because of low yield, short shelf life etc.

I confirm this! My son is 10, finishing 4th class. We're constantly 6-9 months ahead of his class. I think he once in those 4 years got note 2 (one below highest), every other one was the highest. Vast majority of his math classes look like "oh I know that" or "oh I remember that, just need a 5 min refresher". Thanks to it, he has more time for other subjects. His stress level at school is close to zero.

As they say, python looks exactly like Guido indented it to look.

If AI tools could figure on their own how to earn $25/month, they wouldn't need you to buy them.

Whenever a question contains "just", the answer is 99.9% "no".

Lift heavy, eat enough protein, avoid coke/fanta/sprite/sugary drinks.

He's a computer scientist, not a software engineer.

As an adult, finding children's books to be engaging is... well, a tad difficult.
