How is it that a cat, who only weighs 10 pounds, is able to exert hundreds of pounds of pressure through their front feet while sitting on you?
We’re getting to the point where as a tech company all you have to do is not be fascist or actively sabotage your own product with AI bullshit. You don’t even have to be good, you just have to not actively be bad
I happen to own a little open source software company that is expressly anti-fascist, has a “No AI” policy, and has recently been called “aggressively queer” in case you’re interested in supporting tech companies like that:

The majority of the tech industry has no valid vision how to contribute to a liveable future for humanity on this planet. Their dystopian fantasies don’t match with human needs. That’s why we will keep sliding from one bubble to the next. Everything has to be artificially inflated to hide the massive abyss of meaninglessness behind it all.

Seeing a 21% performance improvement and 5% less allocated memory by just retargeting my library from .NET 9 to .NET 10 (RC1). Pretty cool if you ask me.
you can also make the "conditional rendering" an implementation detail as well so the list takes care of it codesandbox.io/p/devbox/rea...

Today, we went to see what was left of our home our last refuge and sadly, we found it completely destroyed. All our memories and dreams were buried beneath the rubble.My children were heartbroken to see their rooms and their few belongings gone. Nothing was left for us except pain and sorrow
We will try to clear some of the debris to set up a tent, as we have nowhere else to go.We truly need your support and for you to stand by us during this difficult time.

My problem with optimism, or, rather, #TechnoOptimism, is that it's always framed with the message "if you give the people who control your lives a chance, it'll all work out."
That's not optimism. That submission.
You ever think to yourself “but I am just one person, what can I do to make a difference?”
It turns out that “wear an inflatable frog costume and go downtown” is actually a really reasonable answer.

nuintari's rules of networking 0x5f:
Never start a hostname with anything other than an alphabetic character. There is a significant amount of software that cannot deal with labels starting with anything else.
**Tears of joy alert!!! "On Alaska's frozen shoreline, oil rig workers made a discovery that stopped them cold—a walrus calf, alone and wailing, separated from his mother in waters over 50 miles away. Most walrus pups don't survive 24 hours without maternal contact. This one had already been crying for days.
The Alaska SeaLife Center team didn't hesitate. They designed something unprecedented: round-the-clock "cuddle therapy." Staff members now work in rotating shifts, bottle-feeding every three hours while cradling the 85-pound infant against their chests, mimicking the constant warmth he'd know from his mother. They hum. They rock. They never leave him alone. The transformation has been miraculous. Within weeks, the calf—who arrives limp and dehydrated—now nuzzles into his caregivers' arms, makes happy chirping sounds, and has gained 12 pounds. He recognizes voices. He reaches for familiar faces. Sometimes survival is just about showing up with love."

Artikel 1 Grundgesetz lautet "Die Würde des Menschen ist unantastbar".
Nicht: "Die Würde des Menschen ist unantastbar, solange er sich produktiv in unsere Gesellschaft einbringt."

ReHacQ、公明党代表の斉藤鉄夫出演回おもしろい。 https://www.youtube.com/live/MOY5qRsVZjc 政治とカネの問題で選挙協力で苦労したのが積もりつもったというのが、まじなんだなぁ。
聞いてておもったけど、政党政治ってやっぱり社会をけっこう反映してるんだな。
自民党(企業・経営者)vs社会党→民主党系(労組)という基本的な対立軸があり、労使が政治の主体だったのが、その関係におさまらない階層・属性として創価学会/公明党があった。現在の多党化状況も、政治主体が労使関係より多様化していることのあらわれでもあり、ある意味健全な状況でもある気はする。

麻生が隠然たる権力を行使した結果、公明党の連立離脱を招いたのは、歪な権力行使にたいして正常に痛みの表明ができている状態ではあって、独裁的な権力が誕生する隙間すらないという意味で、いがいとよくできているんだなと感心した。野党とメディアが政治とカネって騒いだ意義はじゅうぶんあった。

Do you run Bash on FreeBSD and want your cursor-prompt to always be in the top left? At the bottom of your ~/.bashrc you can add the lines
PS0="$(tput cl)"
PS1="$(tput ho)$PS1"
(depending on whether your system uses termcap-vs-terminfo, those might need to be "tput clear" and "tput home" respectively)
The $PS1 moves the cursor to the top/home position before displaying your normal/previous $PS1
The $PS0 clears from the cursor to the end of the screen before running the command you typed.
Is it useful? Maybe to somebody. Would it drive me bonkers? Absolutely. But did it amuse me to figure out how to do this? You bet 😆
i don't understand what you mean by "SearchResults can't show an initial view". i thought that's what you wanted: when you start typing, it's "Loading..." instead of SearchResults, and then it gets replaced by SearchResults. if you want something different, can you describe the sequence precisely?
