That reminds me, it's about time to renew my VSCode license. If I knew it would be so high maintenance, I never would have paid for the three-year plan.

At least for me, even with adblock turned off it still doesn't appear. Thank you for reposting!

This looks really cool! I tried to sign up but it doesn't seem to be sending out verification emails right now. Will give it another go a bit later

If you remove the context of this quote, "The best service is no service" is a wild thing to hear from a car manufacturer. Did anyone proofread this?

Instead of speaking about his right to do this or not, I think this conversation should be about the rise in C-suite executive compensation and Jack Welch style business decisions.

pre-commit more or less does this. When you install locally as a git hook it will only test on changes that are being committed.

You should submit these rules to https://letsblock.it ! AFAIK their distractions rules really only cover YouTube

I would recommend changing the default port of your SSH connection from 22 to anything else and running a tarpit such as endlessh. This is a great video on setting that up:

I think the coolest thing about this tool that I haven't seen mentioned yet is randomizing homework and tests for students on pen and paper without an expensive web platform. This completely eliminates cheating in a math class. Would some sample AI generated text for problems be nice? Sure. But this is the bulk of the work already done IMO.

I upvoted your comment and they remind me of each other because they are both internet "axioms" of behavior. Sorry for any confusion!

Their official update from last night:

"On Dec 11 at 7:30 PST, our main database crashed & corrupted some of the data. This is unplanned & we've been working around the clock to restore it. It's a painstakingly slow process given the scale of data. We unfortunately have no ETA but we're doing everything we can."

I use BTRFS on my laptop and in case anyone is interested in trying it, please be sure you know how to chroot into the system in case it won't start. Arch Linux had a problematic GRUB package pushed to stable a few months ago and it bricked people's computers by booting directly to the BIOS. Whatever you do, make sure to take notes on the configuration (if it is DIY) because there are many difference between BTRFS and EXT4, so you can't use a normal chroot guide to fix your system.

That reminds me of Godwin's Law: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Godwin%27s_law

Yes but the issue is that while laying off so many people could have reduced their burn to zero, losing half of your top 100 advertisers AND adding billions in debt, plus losing most of your staff is a recipe for disaster. Sorry if I didn't phrase that well in my comment.

I do agree that they would have collapsed eventually and this is just an accelerated version of that

Twitter now has billions in debt that it has to service and has lost half of their top 100 advertisers. Their plan to sell an 8$ subscription won't have the reach or ability to service that debt, and while layoffs were necessary to cut costs, doing it in such a classless and unorganized way opens them to serious site reliability issues going forward (they were even down a bit today, for example). I don't see this playing out well to be honest.

If you don't like the ads I'm sure there will be ways to block them. Every search engine has ads, StartPage, DDG, Google, etc... None have an option to pay. I don't see what's wrong with them keeping the lights on, every startup can't burn money forever.

She also posted a second interview with SBF about an hour ago:

From the developer's README on their GitHub profile:

The issue tab is not your free support platform. Sharing coding does not mean that I'm interested in

(1) helping you learning bash, python, what ever,

(2) help you to use basic tools like pip,

(3) help you to debug issues caused by your customizations/configurations,

(4) citing the documentation as you're to lazy to read it,

(5) fixing issues which does not bother or affect me,

(6) and so on.

A disabled issue tab does not mean 'just create an issue in some of my other projects'.

This seems more like what I am looking for. The low tech solutions are great (text files and paper) on a personal level but are horrible for sharing and editing with family. It's too bad about the apple lock in, is there was a way to export to a friendly format like PDF or markdown? (In case the app ever shuts down)

I think this 4D chess argument gives Musk way too much credit. The truth we all need to come to terms with is that billionaires are as incompetent as the rest of us. His DMs released during the court case are proof enough of that.
