Your point is actually what makes remote work so much more effective. When you work in an office, you get used to things working by chance - people seeing what others are doing, talking about it on coffee breaks and so on. When everybody is working remotely, you quickly realize that those things that happened by chance were actually a lot more important than it might seem at first - and then you can do the dumb thing and go back to having it happen by chance, or you can change your processes to ensure that everyone who may have anything to say about what you’re doing, know that you’re doing it.

As someone with no interest in predominantly NSFW games, it does bother me a bit that that is the most common type of game that show up for me unless I disable NSFW completely.

But my problem is exclusively with the algorithm and not with those games. I’m surprised that in 2025 a 200+ hour rpg with one implied sex scene may get tagged with the same ‘NSFW’ category as a Sex Simulator type of game, with no way to hide one without also hiding the other.

All itch.io had to do was create a “monetization-unfriendly” tag and aplly it to those games and hide them behind an opt-in toggle (with some proper notification for current users). They could even target their ads based on that toggle and get even happier advertisers with it.

I think I had a Mandela effect. I had clear memories of news breaking out about Epic Games acquiring itch.io, but googling for it now, all I see is references to when they added it to their own store.

Tbh it took longer than I expect for the new owners to start ducking itch.io

Sorry I think I hallucinated some events.

At one point long ago (just for a short while), I thought Delphi was destined to take that place. It was much higher level while still letting you go as low level as you wanted- it didn’t have garbage collection but it made it pretty easy to keep track of what is or isn’t allocated, on top of having good tools to find leaks on runtime. But it had too many problems too: the Pascal base and the association with drag and drop coders being some of the first ones, followed by a series of bad decisions by whatever company was responsible for it at any given week.

As long as it runs the same code, yes. But things may change, clients may pre-emptively split the string or stuff like that.

Imagine getting a multi byte character at the right position to get it split so that one byte gets in and the other doesn’t.

I’m not saying it’s good, I’m saying I expected it to be even worse.

Reading the paper, AI did a lot better than I would expect. It showed experienced devs working on a familiar code base got 19% slower. It’s telling that they thought they had been more productive, but the result was not that bad tbh.

I wish we had similar research for experienced devs on unfamiliar code bases, or for inexperienced devs, but those would probably be much harder to measure.

It’ll be over one day and I don’t know how high the DPI will have to be, but I’m currently at 160 and I still see room for cramming in more pixels.

I started using computers at 640x480, sometimes 800x600. 1024x768 was a blessing. Since then I’ve always cherished every extra pixel I could get. I would never dare use anything above 1x scale.

The code is open anyone to inspect, test, and improve. Vulnerabilities don’t stay hidden as they are found, reported, and fixed in the open.

That’s also a myth, specially for a project of the size of nextcloud. Bugs can and do go unnoticed for years while in plain sight - with no way to know if it’s been detected by any black hat.

Even worse: as soon as you merge a security fix in an open repository, people will instantly be trying to abuse it in any environment they can find that is currently running the unpatched version.

It’s not that it undeletes them, but that it keeps some of your comments unreachable. Every few months it re-indexes stuff and then with everything that was reachable before being deleted, it shows a different set of comments.

You can see more comments if you access the list with different params. For example, after deleting all your comments sorted by top score, you can access them sorted by controversial and you’ll see a whole other list of comments still there.

See, reddit should be happy with users deleting their own comments.

So 7 hours on that battery would be approximately 5 hours on the deck.

I’ll download dead cells here to see how long the deck can run it in one charge, but I doubt it’ll reach anywhere close to five hours with the default settings.

Edit: I was wrong. Got six hours out of it even.

How big is the battery on the legion go? The deck’s battery drains so quickly I wouldn’t be surprised if it couldn’t last 7 hours even in the home screen.

Like a Café with computers you can use. Some countries also have computers available in libraries.

“this guy is trying too hard, must be a banned user”

Try to find some Lan House (there should still be a couple of them around) and make an account from there.

I simply translated literally a term that exists in my language and didn’t realize it wasn’t really a thing in English.

A farm hotel is a hotel that is focused on leisure activities, usually connected to nature and often established in what would otherwise have been a farm. They tend to have ponds and lots of trees, flowers and sometimes animals too. They tend to also have areas for private events so that companies can bring their folks to stay there for a few days for meetings and presentations.

The one we were at had access to some pristine rivers where we could practice snorkeling, had some beautiful grottos we could enter, some trails for walking through the woods and also access to other rivers for several water sports. Some of those were provided by the hotel itself and others were general touristic attractions from that region.

There are commercial open source stuff too
