I use to give people shit that the default ls command was from 2002. They finally fucking upgraded it in like 2020. But yeah. That’s some old fucking software.

I have had some truley awful CFA sandwiches. When they are good they are fine. But Everytime I go to one it is really hit or miss. So why bother?

And limited to 25 years. This 100 years is bull shit.

Yeah. Standard rejection emails are good. I have gotten some really nice rejection emails. I haven’t dwelt on them long enough to know what sets them apart.

I have gotten a couple of rejections and thought: huh, I forgot I applied there. I have been wanting to do a diagram like this for my current job hunt, but I think I am getting a higher percentage of rejections than OP.

Waaaay out of your proce range, but I absolutely love the Keyboardio Model 100 . https://shop.keyboard.io/products/model-100 it’s a really freaking amazing keyboard. The palm key makes typing the brackets and braces and others so much easier.

Great keyboard. I love it.

I’m glad you bring up Google Books in this. Those lawsuits in the early teens about this issue are really important. But two things bother me: Google really won the case, but then basically abandoned the project. It’s still there, but a shell of what it used to be. I wonder if the case may be, even though they won, they really lost. Or it could be Google just abandoning another project because they never cared about it.

I think AI for searching books like Google books would be an a amazing use case, and really, it is t that much different than what Google books is: an index of all of the published words. In fact, I can imagine AI being able to help you figure out if this book has the info you actually need from the book. That’s not what GPT is, but one could make one that could do it.

I am torn. I am sort of a GPT may sayer, but on the other hand, is it really all that philosophically different than what humans do? I don’t think it is materially different, but it is a little.

I am curious why you think that. I download Bandcamp files and place it on a home server, and I have never had any problems. It is conceivable that they have a tracker or some bull shit connected to it, but more than a little unlikely.

Bandcamp files play fine on non bandcamp-approved playing devices. This is a big win on my book.

This guy’s got tiger blood.

Fish? I like fish.

I think it might be more the fact that he is a workaholic and expects everyone else to be. But yeah, I don’t think he is quite as progressive as he thinks he is.

This is an interesting article. I don’t know anything about kernel development, but I wonder if it’s still true?

And sometimes coding habits are obtuse to people with different coding habits. These habits aren’t bad per service, but can be difficult to grok.
