haha, yea they are part of it for sure, and I'm not dunking on the use of them, but I rather smile a bit when I stumble upon them.

Like (~9K) Jumbo Frames!

Hey Siri, show me an example of an oxymoron!

> CERN is using extremely small, custom large language models physically burned into silicon chips to perform real-time filtering of the enormous data generated by the Large Hadron Collider (LHC).

I'm looking forward to the class action lawsuit, even if only to establish a precedent!

I don't have much hope, but I wish that ignoring software licensing and attribution at scale becomes harder than it currently seems.

I thought this was refreshing, but when I got down to the conditions for the wager the percentages seem awfully high?

I can totally see AI having an impact which results in the media wage for computer/math-people to drop 60%, or employment of white collar workers to drop 45%?

Another great example from tedunangst's excellent presentation "LibreSSL more than 30 days later".

Teaser: "It's like throw a rock, you're gonna hit something... I pointed people in the wrong direction, and they still found a bug".

uv is so good, I would recommend it to anyone.

The suffix "written in Rust" is getting cringy though.

Might work in 2025, 2026 will demand more.

By clients having support and/or plugins for things like OMEMO and OTR.

To me it's weird, and very "bubbly" that someone would make an investment of this magnitude, at this stage, in a business that's proven as unsuccessful as SoundCloud. With this, and all the previously recieved/spent VC, do people investing like this actually expect to get their money back, and with profit? I can't wrap my head around that. strange times.

Regardless of how cynical that sounds I actually think you're right here.

Your pretty broad assumption that being able to vote automatically makes you an opponent to fighting this battle seems flawed though. If the majority of the decision makers were against it, fighting it wouldn't be on the agenda in the first place, right?

The boilerplate argument against emacs is getting kinda old, isn't it? I used vim exclusively for ~5 years up until last summer when I switched to emacs which I use in more or less the same way, edit something, ctrl-z out to the shell, fix something, fg back to emacs etc... I find the ~2 second startup time for the times when I don't run it as a daemon negligible, and imho it's easily worth it at least if you make use of some of the more powerful editing modes.

Also the lacking a decent text-editor joke is just that, a joke :S

Benson obviously adds value to the content so I feel bad about whining, but this looks like a severe case of "how can you tell if someone works for google? -Don't worry, they'll let you know".

I'm currently running arch on an x240, and it works perfectly. I have also had really good experiences with x1 carbon (v2), x220 and x201.

I've ran several different distros on macbooks too, mostly flavours of debian/ubuntu, but also arch and gentoo. In my experience it's all about the amount of work you're willing to put in, but you can defenitely more often than not, get a good setup running on macs(least the machines I tried it on).

The silver lining of getting arch to run on a machine that's not really "plug and play" is that you get to learn a lot of it's internals during install. I would recommend it to anyone with an intrest in linux desktop systems :)

I think the title of this article hints of a great misconception of what Spotify is. They (as well as other digital music providers streaming or not) are part of the music industry now.

The olgopoly has changed, get over it.

Great initiative! It seems like remote working is becoming more of a thing lately, which I think is aweseome, after ~7 years in the it-business I've made myself the promise of never taking a mandatory 40h/week inside-the-office-job again. So kudos for helping getting remote offers out there.

That said, I always cringe when I see the "employer confidential" flag on job postings...

I for one would never apply for a job (or even make the first contact) at an anonymous company. The demand for engineers seems to be high enough for me (anyone) to at least be able to check out the work of a potential employer before making contact.

Nice writeup!

I've always wondered why functional programming-people seem to prefer emacs over vim? I guess it could be the choice for people wanting more IDE-like features, and aren't afraid of a little bloat(cause surely it can't just be the lisp in the configs), am I right?
