@anderseknert Language server support!!! That's incredible, Anders!

@anderseknert In honor of this release, I'm reading some of your old posts. This really resonates with me: "Sometimes though, rather than having someone say 'here are all the ways you can do X', I just want someone more knowledgeable than me to tell me 'here’s the one way you should do X'. Having worked with OPA and Rego for years, I felt like perhaps I qualified as that knowledgeable person, and the Rego Style Guide came to be."

Thank you for the style guide & Regal! https://www.styra.com/blog/guarding-the-guardrails-introducing-regal-the-rego-linter/

Happy 12th Birthday to the funny little project that stole my name

@gracicot @mattgodbolt Like many words in the English language, the meaning may be context dependent.

"I godbolted it" could mean:

  1. I threw it into Compiler Explorer
  2. I made the code super fast, like Matt Godbolt would have done
  3. I sent the code to Matt Godbolt for review

And it might mean all of these things simultaneously! What a beautiful and wonderful language 😊

I would read the hell out of a deep analysis of the many layers (internal, external, technical, personal, systemic, etc., etc.) that have combined to make early Google so arguably less dumb than early OpenAI.

It isn’t just rose colored glasses, right? There was no equivalent of the shareholder coup, the ScarJo voice thing, etc.?

@jawnsy@mastodon.social avatar

@luis_in_brief I dunno, I think we used to be much less connected so a lot of weird shit flew under the radar. Nowadays with social media and a fast news cycle, companies like OpenAI are under a microscope

Humans shape technology and technology shapes us. Beyond the drama of change, there lie great opportunities for humanity.

"It follows that whenever we gain a new talent, we not only change our bodily capacities, we change the world. The ocean extends an invitation to the swimmer that it withholds from the person who has never learned to swim. With every skill we master, the world reshapes itself to reveal greater possibilities."

"The belief in technology as a benevolent, self-healing, autonomous force is seductive. It allows us to feel optimistic about the future while relieving us of responsibility for that future. It particularly suits the interests of those who have become extraordinarily wealthy through the labor-saving, profit-concentrating effects of automated systems and the computers that control them."

"The constraints inherent in taking and developing pictures on film—the expense, the toil, the uncertainty—had encouraged him to work slowly when he was on a shoot, with deliberation, thoughtfulness, and a deep, physical sense of presence. [...] Film, he realized, imposed a discipline of perception, of seeing, which led to richer, more artful, more moving photographs. Film demanded more of him. And so he went back to the older technology."

@skinnylatte Is this why you like using film?

@gbraad foobar2000 was such a great piece of software with such a terrible name. I guess it proves that, if you build something great, the name might not matter much

@skinnylatte There are some smaller cities built to be denser and more walkable, while also being more affordable than SF. I find that kinda tempting sometimes lol

“ The ingredients for conceptual integrity are these: the talent(s) of the human designer(s)—all of them; the thing designed; the luck that brought the designers (and everything they needed) to the right place(s) at the right time(s); the luck of the thing designed to have the right ingredients.”

@RuthMalan Good things in the world only exist because of a handful of people that fight hard for them to exist. Expertise is rare and often undervalued. I suppose it's because it takes some expertise to recognize it 🤔

"Surprisingly, our results show that women's contributions tend to be accepted more often than men's. However, when a woman's gender is identifiable, they are rejected more often. Our results suggest that although women on GitHub may be more competent overall, bias against them exists nonetheless."

AI = a massive spike in energy consumption and carbon emissions for the production of what is the intellectual equivalent of mechanically reclaimed meat, and yet it will be pursued by capitalists seeking to position themselves as a very small door with stiff hinges that is the only gateway to knowledge. It is nothing but a damaging power play dressed up as a benign service. 🐂💩

Jing Jing Palo Alto is closing after 38 years! It's the end of an era. I've had many good meals there. I remember when it opened, replacing a rather nondescript Chinese restaurant called the Four Seas, which looked like a repurposed diner with a counter and faded green vinyl booths. Looking forward to a takeout/delivery venture the owner mentions in the SFGate article.

@andrew I don't have a commute anymore but like to listen to podcasts on long walks around the city. I listen to a lot of random ones and have accepted that I'm never going to be caught up on them

Humming-butt. We are blessed in that our back porch is regularly visited by these cheeky little flying jewels. I have tried to photograph them for some years and failed. I have just finished improving the technology and it’s good enough now, but have still not captured one in flight or looking at me. Summer project!

@timbray What did you use to capture this? Are you using a telephoto lens or did you hide something near the bird feeder/control it remotely?

Also unsure how much of ‘I want to move to LA’ is ‘I really can’t deal with SF’ and how much of it is ‘I’ve been feeling skittish about SF ever since two bad racist incidents happened to me there (and no amount of well meaning liberal hugs will make that go away)’

TIL: with git redate -c <# OF COMMITS> you can change the commit date/time and messages of commits in your repo. However: make sure you do NOT include the very first commit or the command will fail. So if you have N commits in your repo, make sure that -c is always at least one lower than N.

Like @Quinnypig, I’d love if Google went on the record about what happened with this one.

https://www.unisuper.com.au/contact-us/outage-update

Tl;dr is an entire org got wiped, and they’re trying to suggest it’s some kind of Google Cloud issue as the cause.

jawnsy,
@jawnsy@mastodon.social avatar

@GossiTheDog I don't see anything in this article or anywhere else about deleting data, only a "misconfiguration," though it does stand to reason that the data was deleted since it has taken so long to restore. Did I miss something?

I guess offsite/cross-cloud backups were a saving grace in this case, though I wonder how many companies have this scenario as part of their disaster recovery planning

TFW you find the exact GitHub project you've been looking for, but it's just recently been archived without any note to explain why it was :/

@anderseknert So sad when that happens. I've come across that when I've been like "oh, I finally might have a use for that random project that I came across awhile ago" only to find that it's been archived without explanation

Does anyone know of a modern phone which allows call recording without root?

I'm currently on an aging 5T running and can record calls just fine - a button in the dialler lets me record straight from the line. I don't need to put it on speaker and record via the microphone.

(Looking for 1st hand experience, not search results. No need to reply to discuss the legality of call recording. I need root-less for online banking etc.)

jawnsy,
@jawnsy@mastodon.social avatar

@Edent It surprised me to learn that so many people are willing to change banks rather than phones, guess y'all are true believers :)
