traditionally anti-social behavior meant fighting, keying cars, spraying graffitis etc. A kid with antisocial personality disorder can be a danger to other kids due to their reckless behavior.

social alienation caused by the internet and the social media usually manifests in asocial behavior like withdrawing from the society. in the recent years people have started calling this anti-social behavior, and they often get corrected by pedantic people such as myself.

what BBC meant by "anti-social" in this article is unclear.

Still waiting for the day when I can get rid of my work laptop and replace it with a phone entirely. Technically it's already possible, but it's just not practical until I can easily run docker containers on my phone. Also the samsung desktop mode is a bit underwhelming right now.

If this is not the default in the next decade I'm gonna riot. Hotels could replace the TV with a big computer screen and the corner chair with an office chair. Even a cheap hotel room could be an office without anyone having to bring their own toys with them. Just the phone in your pocket.

I hate yaml and python because they have no brackets. When I copy/paste stuff from the internet there's always some issue with indentation and that's a non-issue for normal languages because I can just automatically prettify them but with yaml and python I need to do it manually.

Not that it matters but I just noticed certain titles on their website can be edited. For example the text "Use our /e/OS Installer" can be modified and I noticed it because I accidentally pasted my clipboard there. I suppose contenteditable should be set to "false".

fuck me i'm doing work even though i should be working right now

Postgres is amazing and ORM is your friend. Migrations alone is a good reason why using ORMs is a good idea.

I think there should be some kind of a tax or a fine for anyone who comes up or even suggests a new acronym. Regardless of the field. While I do agree with the article on some level, I still think even a randomly picked word from the dictionary is better than YAA (Yet Another Acronym).

Most ps1 games only supports the d-pad. If you have a dualshock controller but want to move your dude with the analog stick instead of the d-pad, you activate the analog mode.

My biggest issue with LLMs right now is that they're such spineless yes men. Even when you ask their opinion on if something is doable or should it be done in the first place, more often than not they just go "Absolutely!" and shit out a broken answer or an anti-pattern just to please you. Not always, but way too often. You need to frame your questions way too carefully to prevent this.

Maybe some of those character.ai models are sassy enough to have stronger opinions on code?

Maybe add a search/filter to the results. I had to browse through 4 whole pages to make sure your post is actually there!
