It is interesting how little AI written text it takes for me to be grossed out. Just one sentence it seems.

It's like textual uncanny valley.

Absolutely bonkers to brag about your app taking 5 _entire_ seconds to start...

Distributing decompiled code is still a copyright violation.

Doesn't really matter that they're not distributing the assets.

Yeah, it's a real weird time for Elektron. Their whole business model is that they would sell you the same box multiple times if you wanted both synth and samples. But now people are just adding this stuff to Digitakt mk1.

I've switched my gaming PC last year to Linux and it's been flawless.

Originally ran a 3070 which matches your "older mid tier" description and then upgraded to a 9070XT maybe 6 months after launch so not so old or mid-tier.

Is it really that different in implementation? Go's yield points are implicit but aside from the devex side how is that different from async await?

Wait groups do use concurency primitives underneath. My point is that the primitives that go provides are too easy to use incorrectly. And the language makes it hard to build nice abstraction on top of them. So I generally steer people away from using them unless strictly necessary, channels in particular.

We're heavy user of Go at work. Go also makes it way to easy to write bad concurrent code and hard to write good one.

Stick to err/wait group and go routines and it's OK. Any PR with a channel or mutex I'll assume the author made a mistake.

How are things like that, that were preserved (I'm assuming) by the dry sand they were buried under, then gets preserved by archaeologist for the future?

A lot of pigments react to oxygen, and the sandy winds must not be kind to this kind stuff so I'm curious.

I know they've had to close Lascaux to the public for example.

Don't really see why. The issue with PostmarketOS is that there isn't enough people working on it. Not that the phones are locked down. Otherwise phones with open bootloader would have good support.

That looks nice but no Xbox support.

As other have said the apps for devices is still the issue with Jellyfin.

For TV you pretty much have to use Kodi and all the decent theme require a surprising amount of other plug-ins to work...

Anyone know of a decent theme for Kodi that won't fall over next time it updates? I just need "Resume Watching", "Newly Added" and alphabetical lists.

Yeah adding tools dynamically seems good but removal is a terrible idea. Instant cache nuke.

I also really don't see how the hacky command interceptor is that much better than a dedicated tool. You're one which away from a very confused LLM.

Also for years prior it was explicitly said share code were _not_ to be used for travels and that airlines were not allowed to ask for them.

And now that they are the airlines do not have the system to check them so you have to print the webpage which also explicitly said should _not_ be used instead of the share code...

Yeah I've done more research and that's what I meant in the edit you replied to.

But that's not the full reasoning token context, just a snapshot of the latent state at the end of it, no?

Have a look at the gemini ones they're pretty small.
