It’s a gold rush, they sell the shovels (for all the data center construction).

This seems to be all about drift from the main implementation of Cpython.

If JIT is different enough in maintenance, security best practices, and consumer use, we don’t have two compilers, we have two different languages.

And that’s the crux of it.

GitHub has had an insanely busy year trying to keep up with the flood of AI development. When traffic grows 100-1000x. Things get missed

As someone who has been around a sick child, I’ll take the statistically significant temperature reduction at 4h of ibuprofen.

“It is obvious that the entity that drafted them has an artificial intellect that is unconcerned with, for instance, getting to the point.”

Most Dutch will only speak English to non-Dutch. Which is really annoying if you’re there trying to learn Dutch

Stuff like this makes me laugh when someone says cyclists should pay their fair share for road maintenance.

That is one where you need to do the math. the source of the power for these trucks is an unknown proportion of fossil fuels and there is transmission loss for electric power.

Also, assuming a 10% increase of tire wear rate seems unreasonable: I’d assume it’s proportional to the weight of the vehicle.

Rails cannot replace ALL trucks. But it could replace a lot of them.

Edge cases shouldn’t determine our infrastructure and hybrid models have always been the norm.

Meeting people in public really is the answer, but I think shifting the focus from romantic to being genuine, friendly, and focusing on community in places where it’s not just guys is way more successful (for hetero men)

I met my girlfriend at a coffeeshop. I was a regular and just actively friendly to everyone. Our first date felt more like a second because we already had multiple conversations.

Men have a much greater emphasis on physical attraction than women which is why women need a much higher level of physical attraction when only using that. But building community lets us show off our other qualities which women put a much greater emphasis on.

And if a pedophile ever sponsors a product you own, maybe take 10 seconds out of your day to write that.

Why does this feel like negotiating with the monkey’s paw?

Your suggestion that it is malware is misleading. Malware is “any software intentionally designed to harm, disrupt, or steal data from computers”. I sincerely doubt that was the author’s intention.

Everyone in open source is trying to write good software and the definition of good is subjective depending on overall design, features, ease of use, quality, and performance.

If an open source project is missing a feature, go build it. If the project maintainers don’t want it, fork the project. Be the change you want to see in the world. That’s the beauty of open source.
