TL;DR

This is a course on how to use Microsoft compute to maximise their profits

liamkearney··on Can your terminal do emojis? How big?
This is a really cool little interaction, thanks for sharing!

What doesn’t justify shipping chromium these days?
liamkearney··on Show HN: Sshsync – CLI tool to run shell commands across multiple remote servers
Ansible is one of the best examples of needless complexity I’ve ever interacted with.
liamkearney··on Show HN: Time travel debugging AI for more reliable vibe coding
Exactly my annoying exert as well. LLMs are good at debugging not writing code.

It’s just a statistical rubber duck, “what other obvious (common) things haven’t I thought about yet Mr duck?”

Shortcat basically does this. It indexes a lot of native AX APIs and also menu items

liamkearney··on EA Open Sources Command and Conquer: Red Alert
Curious. Can anyone tell me if it’s windows thing, specific filesystem thing, source control system thing or just a style thing, naming all files and directories in caps?
liamkearney··on OpenBSD Innovations
No, writing them over and over is literally what evolves computer science. Not having to write them over and over is what improves software. They’re different.

Not exactly the problem docker solves…
liamkearney··on Gaining access to anyones Arc browser without them even visiting a website
I was literally using Arc because of the ability to hide most of the userchrome.

Every time I open split views or tabs I curse. I've said this in the past but layering view multiplexors has to be the most stupid modern "super-user" trap. You have the ability to open multiple browser windows and composite them side by side, use it.

Does anyone know of any other browsers that are chromium based and have very little features aside the ability to hide most of the UI?

liamkearney··on Daylight Computer – New 60fps e-paper tablet
Agreed. This screams scope creep.

"We've built our own renderer" would make sense to me, perhaps specific handling is needed for the device's display.

However rolling a parser does not without further context, it screams: "I want to encounter some dumb non-specification stuff and crash for no reason"

liamkearney··on Show HN: React Spreadsheet 2
Seconding this. Almost all of these "tabular" (although this a bit different) components frequently talk about their in-house tooling pricing. It's a big market.
liamkearney··on Downfall Attacks
As seen in the attack demo video the kernel advises of some. You can ‘cat /proc/cpuinfo’ and look for them there.

Your poorly drawn signature.
