Oh wow, where was the wild asparagus found?

what are the rare cases where it would be needed?

I agree with both of you. We don't really know how this is going to work out yet!

Currently it would be rather risky to have AI contribute heavily to anything published publicly with any licence restrictions.

I don't think this results in an MIT library. Because it's an AI work it's not copyrightable so it's just public domain!

Llms will also give you practical advice on how to commit suicide so they're exactly like a therapist right?

Won't be long until there's a $100m bet on this in "prediction markets"

You've just got to find the right module!

The worst part is that there seems to be zero enforcement from what I've seen. If you're outside the EU or other countries with DST you can likely ignore it and earn more than those who are in compliance. Total policy failure really!

It's great how the EU + many other countries have made it incredibly complicated for smaller devs to sell digital products.

All in the name of getting money from the tech giants 🤦🏻‍♂️

@tolin.ski loved the @syntax.fm video about your Electron app. Are you using the @sentry/electron SDK?

Also, what do you know about international digital sales taxes and how horrible it makes selling apps these days?

Much better for the share price to blame AI for layoffs than to admit that you over-hired!

Interestingly for S3 they quote 99.999999999% for durability which means if you store 10 million files, you should expect to lose one file every 10,000 years!

99.99% equates to under 52m 36s of downtime per year!

Especially at the efficency the brain works at.

Something like 1 exaflop at 20 watts!

Finally got the fibre installed and the usability vs 3G is night and day, especially at peak hours. 1Gbps symetric was only €31/month!

Now I just need to get a ladder so I can remove the overhead copper wires the installer couldn't be bothered to remove 🤦🏻‍♂️

Love how Quickbooks accounting software now has AI transaction classification that's useless and they've also messed up manual classification in the process.

GDPR applied before too. GDPR is dependent on the location of the consumer not where the data is stored

Reminds me of when I found 200GB of log files generated by a code linter

I choose Android at this point for multiple reasons but one of the main ones is that the navigation consistency is far better. Swiping ALWAYS goes back whereas on iOS it's highly app dependent. Even some of the Apple apps don't let you swipe to go back. It's so infuriating!

Always hated the whole iPhone vs Android debates because for the vast majority there was not much deciding to be done. The iPhone was just far too expensive.

I visited a few network provider physical shops in Portugal this week and they didn't even have iPhones for sale.

Germ being iOS only means it's basically useless. 70% of the world use Android and even in the US/UK its only half

"prebuild": "node -p \"'export const LIB_VERSION = ' + JSON.stringify(require('./package.json').version) + ';'\" > src/version.ts",

"prebuild": "node -p \"'export const LIB_VERSION = ' + JSON.stringify(require('./package.json').version) + ';'\" > src/version.ts",

Yeah this is my favourite way to include the library version in code

Using async_hooks you can hook promise creation and completion. Using this you can track all promises that weren't awaited. You just need to capture a stack trace at creation so you can point out where the missing await was.

Capturing a stack trace for every promise has overhead hence the opt-in!

My guess would be async_hooks 🤔

Noticed it surface more followers arguing with randos than any other feed 🫠

There is also this that has everything from your followers AND replies bsky.app/profile/did:...
