Interesting. I've been gifted that book at just the right time in my life as a teenager. It captured me. I read it the to end many times. Not understanding everything or course. But it created a spark which laid the groundwork for my entire career.

I've never seen cosmos.

I knew instantly that it's him. No one is even remotely as hungry for attention as him.

They do, literally and explicitly so. Yes, really.

Nothing did more damage to c++ code bases than people not understanding this. People hear "smart pointers are good" and use them for everything. Not understanding that it's just the lesser evil and still extremely rarely needed (vs just stack memory or variants)

And one of my favorite examples how fancy names impact popularity. Also see Mersenne Twister.

Bingo. Ghcp is the only allowed llm solution at our big well known semiconductor corp. It'll take years to get approval for anything else. We're stuck with it and will pay whatever price we have to.

Because Copilot is the only thing allowed at our corp

But I don't want to change vaults, I want to work in both. I want to search for something and get results from all vaults. Or rather: I want to select which folders to sync - that would effectively be the same for me.

I'm just so bummed that multiple vaults are pretty much unusable. I can't sync my sensitive work notes. But I want to sync general programming notes between work and other PCs. But multiple vaults hardly work. The just open in a new window.

Other than that, I love so many things about the program. Just linking and graphs are weird and strangely overrated. Search and tags still rules over everything imo

Because it's a clickbait title

No they don't? You keep working for 2-10 months until you can leave whatever your contact says

All my work experience with guis was mfc. And all modernizations were web based. The in betweens are usually not considered worthwhile.

But imgui is a breeze of fresh air for internal stuff

Politicians literally have their own paragraph with insane protections, it's §188. You don't ever want to say something negative about a politicians in Germany. The police will kick in your door within days.

"Enterprise edition" is usually a sign of parody projects. But this seems to be serious?
