Takes time to move your hand to it.

Proton is a tool Valve made, based on Wine, to easily run Windows games, on Linux [0]. GP meant Proton.

Have you ever been forced to code something impossible and tedious by a user who keeps getting more and more frustrated as you keep trying?

Wayland is great and I generally prefer it, but it's worth keeping X around for KDE Plasma I think. Things like remote desktop are nicer on X, X is much easier to use on Android compared to Wayland, etc.

If DDG got 28% more visits, Google lost about .6% of their visits.

Wow. Hopefully, Ternus will bring what he brought to Apple's hardware to their software. The hardware is leaps and bounds ahead of anything else, but their software gets worse and worse every generation. I'm glad to hear this.

Seems like it's down right now. I guess that's the "State of Homelab"? :)

ChatGPT recommended me some good hard drives for price per TB, and one particularly cheap one had direct checkout with Walmart, so I tried it, because why not? It let me get all the way to the payment step before it told me it was out of stock. Walmart's website told me it was out of stock when I decided to click on the link. This is probably part of why it doesn't convert.

I'm currently using a fully vibe-coded, personal River window manager that works just how I want it to. I switched to it after I realized I couldn't do everything I wanted in Hyprland (e.g. tile windows to equal areas instead of BSP by default).

Simple example of how impactful this separation has been for me.

Ugh, I just wish there was a deterministic and formal way to tell a computer what I want...

"Prediction" markets were supposed to be great because of insiders: they make the probabilities much more accurate and actually useful for forecasting.

But they ended up just being for gamblers and there is no more signal.

Is this essentially a cloud-managed specialized subagent with an LLM-friendly API?

Seems like an interesting new category.

20% loss isn't too bad if you start out at double the capacity though.

Ok, but something like Zed is almost as snappy as native GUI frameworks AND has a consistent user experience. It doesn't seem like they are making any tradeoffs there.

GP didn't say Cline/Roo charged anything on top.
