I am always baffled how many people does not know about Amphetamine.

If you don’t trust the Bun team when they release a Rust version and give it their stamp of approval, why did you trust them when they released the Zig version two weeks ago?

I think you cannot make this comparison because Rust version wasn’t in fact written by the Bun team. It wasn’t even read by them.

Home distillation is very popular in Poland too. Risk of getting poisoned from it is near zero in practice. In some parts of Poland there is more home-distilled alcohol bottles at the tables during weddings than commercial ones.

In many European countries you will be offered home-distilled drinks, you would be very unlucky to get anything else than hangover.

The problem is overblown.

I don't think an apple watch would help there?

You can authorize via Apple Watch everything you can authorize via Touch ID. You get the notification on the Watch, and you need to press the button twice to auth.

I don't remember if it works every time, or only when MacBook is closed and connected to external display/keyboard.

For which country?

At least one of the authors is Russian. They were giving away Helium stickers to “anyone who is in Moscow”, and not many non-Russians are traveling there nowadays.

Box is relevant in enterprise space. It's a very different business than Dropbox.

because you can go further with fewer people

Can you though? From my experience this is just a wishful thinking. I am yet to see actual productivity gains from AI that would objectively justify hiring less or laying off people.

I don’t think anyone is surprised.

Arbitrarily choose an option, but expose the fact that you've auto-resolved a conflict and allow the user to manually re-resolve. This requires even more UI work than option 1.

This is what every "cloud file sharing" provider like Dropbox is doing. If there is a conflict, the version on the server is "the right one", and your locally conflicted file is copied on the side with some annotation in the file name.

Software in Japanese cars is terrible from European point of view, yet people are buying them because of the hardware (reliable engines).

This is great, thank you!

Few ambushes and you have the heavy equipment. That's how many Ukrainian volunteer groups armed themselves - on russian forces.

Most of these points would apply if you use phone in your car for navigation, and most of them are not a real issue (expect being a distraction maybe).

Screen is good enough to be used in a sunny day, phone will easily reach more than 35 degrees if you play a graphics-heavy game, so this is also not an issue, battery with a battery saver mode will easily last for a few hours even if you use Google Maps all the time, and with a good mount there is a zero chance you will drop your phone and break something.

I've been using Copilot for about a year and I can't imagine coding without it again

I for example used Copilot for 2 months at work and wouldn't pay for it. Most suggestions where either useless or buggy. But I work in a huge C++ codebase, maybe that's hard for it as C++ is also hard for ChatGPT.

If you worry about "staying ahead of generative AI" in it's current state, then I think you are not a good coder and you should learn more instead of worrying about that.

LLMs are only good in writing new code without surrounding context. They are pretty useless in legacy codebases and in codebases with a lot of internal solutions. I've used Copilot for 2 months at work and maybe 10% of suggestions were useful, and from that 10% maybe 10% did not contain bugs.

The phone distracts from the goa

So does life. I think we should lock the children in school from the beginning of the education period, without the access to the external, disctracting life. They can leave when they are 18.

these are children in schoo

Policies apply to secondary education, i.e. high school. You are an adult in higher grades of high school.

I am pretty sure that for most developers open source = source code available, and nothing else.

Anegdotally I have been a professional dev for 10 years and this is the first time I hear your definition of open source.

In that case, new developers just don't need to learn the old feature at all

That's not true if you want to be a professional C++ dev - you will encounter projects stuck in older standards, or legacy code written in the age of old standard. In practice you need to know everything from C++98 to the newest.

I think Google is scrapping websites, not using the APIs?

when they started enforcing that policy.

I don't have a real name on Facebook not have any of my friends. There are also a lot of fake/troll accounts on Facebook. I don't think they ever enforced that policy.

I’ve tried Dvorak and Colemak but went back to QWERTY. Whole software world is developed with QWERTY in mind, and it was too much PITA.

Split keyboard (especially with ortholinear, column staggered layout) will give you much more benefit than any alternative layout - and will be much easier to switch too.

Carrying about climate was the zero interest rate phenomenon.

It's a much less chance and not comparable at all. Treating job as a family member is also not healthy.

Your employer will get rid of you in a blink if needed, as current layoffs show, getting too attached to your work is not healthy - no matter how passionate you are about it.

If changing job is a major trauma I would advice seeing a therapist. This is not a standard for most people.

Food is not forbidden. I passed security gates with food multiple times on multiple airports - still sealed food like peanuts or candy bars, but also homemade sandwiches.

Drinks are the problem, but water is not that expensive, and some airports have drinkable water for free near toilets.

There is no comparable project in Rust that demonstrates just how quick you can go from "nothing" to Full-Fledged OS

I don't remember the last time I've printed anything at work, apart from my notice.

But that's definitely the case for him and for several vim + tiling users that I know. Then every single step requires planning for the basic moves.

I think you are imagining things, because that makes you feel better. None of this is true for experienced vim users. It's true for novices, but that's the nature of learning. I know you won't believe me, but I don't really care.

They will never say anything but good things about it.

That's not true either, as every tool has pros and cons, and every vim/tmux/i3/arch/linux user is aware of that.

Look at YT/Twitch for any good Vim user, like Primeagen or TJ Devries, or basically any Vim-related conference talks and you will see that your understanding is flawed.
