Can you tell a little more about your software setup? Been playing with local AI models but struggle to get anything as easy as ChatGPT or Claude. I have a folder with skills, and I can switch between ChatGPT and Claude, and either will do the same work. I’m struggling to find something that can do that locally

Except with nix it doesn’t make it weird. If you delete iwd and something stops working, then you can just roll back to the previous generation of the nix store that included iwd.

Didn’t read the article, but why would you go work at a lower end job when you can make 80-90% of what you would make by just collecting unemployment benefits?

I personally know at least 2 people that admitted this and said they would wait until unemployment benefits expire to seek work.

I've never understood why the government thinks that just because someone has died, they deserve 40+% of money that has already been taxed.

These statements are so true. When our company had billing issues with in-app purchases, there were plenty of times that we wanted to refund people for their purchases and we had no way to do this on both Apple and Amazons platforms. We had to send them to Apple and Amazon customer service and we never knew if they got help or not. Google on the other hand actually made it very easy for us to find someone’s purchase and issue them a refund, but even with Google you are very removed from the customer and can’t directly contact them or find out much about the customer.

Also want to give you a big thank you for creating i3. After using it for a long time I can’t imagine going back to a setup without it. I almost always need 2 windows side by side and it makes that workflow so effortless.

Do you have a source for the 10% of young people needing ventilators?

This could easily be solved by something along the lines of “Version 3.0 maintains full compatibility with Version 2.2” at the top of their release notes.

I dislike the idea of going away from SemVer just for marketing purposes. At least as a user when I’m going to upgrade versions then I could see that “oh, this version doesn’t break compatibility”

I disagree with you. When you “owned” a physical cd, you had to ability to sell it. When you own the digital version it is not possible to resell it.

Amazon really missed the boat when they came out with their crappy phone attempt. They could have invested more money and made some decent hardware instead of trying to do something gimmicky. They still haven't really learned though by launching poorly designed Kindle Fires with low res screens that lag a bunch. I wonder how different it would be if Amazon had launched a device like the Pixel as a phone.

This is really exciting to see! I had assumed that they would be launching most new instance types with only EBS storage so this is awesome that it looks like this will be coming to even more instance types too.

The bottom of the article mentions "PS – We will be adding local NVMe storage to other EC2 instance types in the months to come, so stay tuned!"

I had 35 HVM instances that didn’t have forced downtime. There are other reasons a machine could need to be brought out of service.

So this sounds like this Intel bug will not impact performance on HVM instances.

In your scenario, what happens if you need to change strong_master_password? I’m assuming you now need to change every password on every single site or else remember your new strong password and your old.
