Kind of like math, huh? Some people burn out on "meaningless" impossible problems. Others get obsessed with them and make significant contributions along the way to failure.

I'm glad that I'm over that phase I had in university where I wanted to write a custom memory allocator for everything because "I understand my usage better". I will admit that it was a good bit of fun though.

How do push notifications and similar things work on GraphenOS? Do they work reliably out of the box on most apps, or did you have to set up MicroG/whatever GrapheneOS's equivalent is?

I've started wearing a night guard/TMJ splint, by the recommendation of a dentist. It helps a lot in preventing my jaw from locking up during the day. Have you given that a show to try and alleviate some pressure from the area?

I'm starting to find correlations that make me feel regret...

I have noticed that my traps and everything around it feel a lot better when I work out. Hopefully I can continue to work out, despite recent minor injuries.

This was above and beyond, thank you.

As someone who hasn't been a professional for too long, I'm curious. Did the general tone of tools in software engineering ever feel like this before? Where we're talking about replacing engineers instead of assisting them? I learned to code LSPs and stack overflow. I didn't get to experience them being integrated into a developers wirkflow.

Written in an attempt to wrangle my own thoughts about AI, the current and future state of software engineering: My ramblings about AI and software engineering.

Can you point me towards some stats for these please? Are you looking at consultancy type companies or subsidiaries that hire locally?

I feel terrible because I never did anything wrong. I never went to a concert. I never worked around loud things for prolonged periods. I never listened to music too loud. I have tinnitus. It seems to go up in intensity when my TMD acts up, but it never goes completely away. Mine isn't nearly debilitating, but I worry that it's going to get worse with time.

The other archive link seems to be timing out for me, here's another one if you need it: https://archive.ph/AiEC0

I'm someone who is building a messaging app, and I make sure we subscribe to the "nothing to hide, nothing to fear" philosophy. But in our case it's collect nothing so there's no data to steal even if we get hacked.

I never even realized that it was tivo-ized. Probably because I haven't been on windows since before WSL became a thing.

I just got started working Zod into a new project. This could not have happened at a better time. I would have needed to change so much ot migrate to v4 based on what I'm seeing.

Back in university I implemented a shoddy HDR for my phone camera.

The hardest part of it, by far, was taking hundreds upon hundreds of pictures of a blank piece of paper in different lighting conditions with different settings.

I love passkeys. I love them being on my phone, requiring biometric authentication before unlocking. I just hate the vendor lock in that comes with it.

Does anyone know the state of the standard wrt this? I know that they planned on doing something about it, just haven't kept up.

I'm absolutely thrilled that there is an effort to make models smaller and run with less resources instead of blindly throwing more resources at the problem and expecting it to get solved.

I agree. With the recent Canadian election (and provincial election), I was kind of overwhelmed by the sheer number of ads being sent my way, and how he said/she said the debates were at some points.

I kind of just need a summary of: 1. Bills proposed/supported/rejected 2. Search bar to summarize their opinion/policy on a topic I care about (throw in citations for good measure) 3. A searchable version of their manifesto along with their party's

Are you concerned about anything in particular, or is it just the absurdity of the situation?

I ask this as someone without kids who hates the way AI is being shoved down everyone's throats. It's a tool I use, but I want it to be one that I can choose to pick up when I need to.
