I'd agree it is about the Neo in the sense that the device and the talk around it obviously triggered this post.

I don't think the author is exactly bashing the Chromebook. I'm reading it in that the author praise an open ecosystem where you have flexibility and the choice to "take off the guard rails" and go where the device was not originally made to take you.

There's an argument to be made that it is ironic that Apple is the example of this, but to me that shows why I _still_ like MacOS, when all the other variants (iPadOS and iOS) are entirely locked down.

A bit besides the point, but an FDM printer is definitely not good enough to reproduce these somewhat convincingly. That being said, a cheap-ish resin printer will probably do the job, and they are generally in the same price range.

Not at all saying it's a conspiracy, I just think it's a lack of transparency.

I get why, but it would give me more confidence if they would tell me about everything.

I get the feeling that all "serious" businesses have manual processes for publicly facing status pages, for political reasons.

I don't like it.

It's very practical when you use a lot of different devices. It's nice to use native built in email apps, but when using multiple different OSes and device types, it can be very annoying to have the different clients play nice with each other.

Specifically, steganography: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steganography

While I do think that's true, I'd say a more apt analogy is that for humans each model will produce fairly similar results on each prompt, but it helps having 8 billion different models running.

I'd also argue that we tend to have a larger context. What did you have for dinner? Did you see anything new yesterday? Are you tired of getting asked the same question over and over again?

Could be because of shared clipboard between devices?

Very well put.

I've just recently set off time to have a few extended coding sessions, and the results are all over the place.

Guided in a good way for well defined tasks, it has saved me days if not weeks. Given more vague, or perhaps unreasonable tasks, it will quickly devolve into just delivering something, anything, no matter how "obviously" wrong it is.

It is actually meaningful though, as it says something about the origin of the materials. Synthetic could still mean that it was based off of animal products.

I really love the channel, but I can't help to feel that he was held back by his, ehm, limited knowledge of cooking.

Though I have fairly pedestrian DNS needs, I find dnscontrol[0] a real treat to use. Also makes it possible and easy to quickly flip providers.

I think the point about the question is that both of those answers can be very interesting and spark conversation about your knowledge about, and approach to, computer programming as problem solving.

Others have posted alternatives, but I really like the fact that you can self host it:

I guess collaborative sites like forums are likely to suffer greatly from this shift.

I have yet to see this, but I feel a strong need to praise noclip for pushing out absolutely stellar video game related documentaries!

Boeing?

Absolutely every cell phone has the ability to call emergency numbers from a locked device. Even without Sim card.

I don't intend to drag this discussion on, but in my mind "8x cheaper" doesn't really make sense.

I would much prefer "electricity cost 1/8 the price" or "gas was 8x more expensive".

What breaks the validation for you? Looks good here.

This all depends on the risks involved.

Can I handle it failing, sure, go ahead. There are so many variables that could be involved, not uncommonly including temporal ones. I don't think simply monitoring for a period and calling it healthy is of any guarantee.

I do very much think you are right though. Being too risk averse will grind everything to a halt.

Your whole process has to be designed around avoid these issues. Allow failures, fix continuously and _quickly_, don't repeat mistakes.

As is mentioned in the post, there are very sleek off the shelf solutions.[0]

I find their oscilloscope probes especially enticing.

What's your experience getting gigabit adapters?

In my experience, cheap ones on e.g eBay will give you 10/100, but I don't think they typically support gigabit.

X will not cancel you.

From the amounts of bans since Twitter was acquired, I think you'd have some work cut out for you assuring people of that.

The king is special in that you lose if captured.

You also need four of the diagonal pieces, so the bishops won't cut it.

Damaging for what? I agree that it could be damaging for overall productivity, but I would argue that it's very good for other things. Eg. peoples ability to focus on other things in life, like family and friend.

I find it strange that we would want to optimize everything for growth.

It's there to give you an incentive to choose a given airline. It doesn't mean that you are being taken advantage of, per se, but it probably affects the choice of airline.

Reminds me of https://hitchhikers.fandom.com/wiki/Total_Perspective_Vortex

Gave me a flashback to VR.5[1] from '95.

I remember it as an _amazing_ show, so I'm very weary of seeing any videos of it now...

To each their own.

I _love_ the tradeoffs between size, weight, battery life and performance in my Macbook 14" laptop.
