It’s the reason I switched to NixOS - I can’t pin for shit in Debian, and I’m stuck at whatever version they want things to be (like ye olde git). Some programs I just want to be bleeding edge, the rest I don’t care much about (unless it breaks).
Meanwhile, I can pin things in Cargo (Rust), and uv (Python) just fine, which is why it stings so hard that Debian doesn’t have it :(
I’ve been pushing for people to leave Christianity, because with Christianity comes Israel, and with Israel comes a second nation that you now owe loyalty to, and that’s treasonous behaviour.
Time for the Germanic countries to return to their Heathen roots.
With the Reddit Enhancement Suite, right? Good shit!
/u/spez is the effective reason.
Reddit was great for me, back in 2008, but over the years slowly got more and more “normy”/less technical, more drama, more celebrities, the new UI, letting in the Digg refugees, not keeping old.reddit.com somewhat up-to-date while forcing me to use the new UI for certain pages, letting users get banned from subreddit A because they ever posted on subreddit B, with the API bullshittery as the straw that broke the camel’s back. Oh, and the MASSIVE amount of shadow-banning/deletion that happens. You have NO idea how many comments get removed, just from your own account. Check out https://www.reveddit.com/ for evidence.
I slowly deleted 9 of my 10 accounts (one of them was combine_policeman, which I used to tell a user to “pick up that can, hehehehe”), kept my last one, until I made a flippant comment about whether Americans were going to burn down a city, because Mrs Good got killed (because, you know, people burned down their own city after George Floyd), which I said because I know white Americans don’t care about their own. Individualism for thee, but not for me, and all that.
Anway, felt offended about the warning (and deleted comment), so I deleted my account that night. Fuck 'em.
I already had done a request-for-data, which I used to delete my thousands upon thousands of comments from the site. Because fuck 'em!
Lemmy/programming.dev feels so much more like 2008 Reddit, it’s insane. There are more communists here, than 2008 Reddit, but they had a bunch of Libertarians, so it evens out, lmao.
AOC is 36. The last 23 presidents were all at least 42 (and that was Theodore Roosevelt: 1901-1909). I don’t see her winning, due to her being as young as she is. Maybe next run or the one after that.
Wish she would be more popular than she is.

Can we not pick another boomer for president? I’m very much done with that whole generation.
Sorry, I declare NixOS being in its own tier, actually.
Because it’s Arch, except no systemd, I guess.
Note: if we throw out copyright, it’s OK for LLM companies to just steal any and all data under the sun. Example: Anthropic buys books, and just digitizes them, then uses that data to train their LLMs
It’s a nasty side effect.
On the other hand: No company can claim anything you’ve generated from their LLMs.
I had bread that tasted like a cake, and the Pop-Tarts made my teeth jump out of my mouth due to the amount of sugar they were able to concentrate in it. Can’t recommend.
Both 100% American.
The people were very nice though, so that was something.
You wanted to!
“Poutine” makes it sound so fancy, even though it’s just Loaded Fries.

Must have been replaced by all the doctors and engineers that have been imported into France.

Who? I know of one guy from the UK - Peter Mandelson, as named in the article and summary. Who else?

The claim was “Yet most AI models can recite entire Harry Potter books if prompted the right way, so that’s all bullshit.”
In this test they did not get a model to produce an entire book with the right prompt.
For context: These two sentences are 46 Tokens/210 Characters, as per https://platform.openai.com/tokenizer.
50 tokens is just about two sentences. This comment is about 42 tokens itself.
Very much reminds me of Casey Muratori’s “Philosophies of Optimization” talk where he mentioned what he calls “pessimization” - instead of optimizing (making a program do a thing faster), pessimize it - make it do less.
The less a program does/needs to do, the faster it will be.
I’m a programmer and have switched to NixOS, because I can define all my configurations in code+git repo, which is great. I now have a single repo that has some parts that are shared, and some parts are host-specific (one desktop + 2 laptops, for now), and if I fix some bug (like my Samsung 990 Pro SSDs having Linux issues), I know it’ll be permanently fixed, instead of having to re-figure everything out after a reinstallation.
NixOS BTW. We’re making it ours.
edit: Steam has been a non-issue, so gaming has been great so far! Not that I’ve been gaming a ton, but still.
Also, being able to use an LLM to fix stuff for me in my nixcfg repo has been great - I would NOT have been as productive with NixOS had I not have had Codex.
Here’s my quick guide to fixing slow queries:
EXPLAIN ANALYZE <query>Parallel Seq Scan, check the Filter value (which column are we checking) - you should likely try adding an index.CREATE INDEX ON <table>(<column>);EXPLAIN ANALYZE <query> again to check for improvementsNote that EXPLAIN <query> will only do a rough analysis, while EXPLAIN ANALYZE <query> will run your actual query, and analyse it.
If you want to ANALYSE EXPLAIN an INSERT query, do this:
BEGIN;
EXPLAIN ANALYZE INSERT ...;
ROLLBACK;
A simple ROLLBACK will help you here.
Rewriting the query will typically not do much - it might, but the chance it relatively small vs slapping an index on it.
I remember a few idiots blocking the roads. Surprise: I had no sympathy for them when they got their shit kicked in.
Don’t obstruct traffic. Simple as is.
