For fucks sake. Why is Drupal and composer so much fucking work for simple things ?

Obviously we are not talking about the financial cost of cum here. We have no idea how much that costs and nor do we care. We're talking about how much energy it takes to make an egg vs a sperm.

Follow your dreams, don't let anyone tell you you can't. A stubborn disrespect for the limits of your ability is the key to success. Look at this guy for example. He has co-starred in Blockbuster after Blockbuster since the 1970s he only has one facial expression, and he is so potty mouthed every single line has to be beeped out in post.

My hot take on the Vision Pro is the same as my hot take on every AR/VR/Mixed Reality headset produced in the past *checks notes* 20 years: "If most women can't use your product for 4 hours straight without throwing up, don't try to tell me that it's the future of anything." I said what I said.

Women can use a smartphone indefinitely without nausea. They can use a laptop indefinitely. A gaming console and TV indefinitely. But XR headsets cause motion sickness in most women in under an hour. 🤷🏿‍♂️

Google announced that starting in June 2024, ad blockers such as #uBlock Origin will be disabled in Chrome 127 and later with the rollout of Manifest V3 (#Mv3).

The new #Chrome manifest will prevent using custom filters and stops on demand updates of blocklist. Only #Google authorized updates to browser extension will be allowed in the future, which mean an automatic win for Google in their battle to stop YouTube #AdBlockers .

#ManifestV3 is deceitful and threatening to your privacy, and now is a good time to switch to #Firefox (@mozilla) and/or #TorBrowser (@torproject) if you haven't done so already!

Save two hours writing boilerplate, spend ten hours debugging incredibly subtle bugs in production, sounds like a win!

Yea, the fact that LLMs just inherently produce "plausible" results rather than "correct" results means producing bugs that are just that much harder to spot.

Study of codebases over a 4 year period show Github Copilot lowers the quality of code over time by increasing the likelihood of bugs being introduced and copy & pasted code.

This is a healthy counterpoint to studies that show improved productivity.

Fast. Cheap. Good. Pick Two.

Absolutely losing it after discovering what3words took control of the whatfreewords domain by arguing that "three" and "free" are indistinguishable when spoken.

Monday morning read: The untold history of Barbie Fashion Designer, the first mass-market ‘game for girls’ polygon.com/23776996/barbie-fa

lots of 90s game dev lore gems in it; feels incredible they pulled it off tbh

and, was it lowkey the first mainstream 3D printing game, too??

@elizabethtasker (Regarding the "busted" landing I would say that surviving a highly non-nominal final descent and touchdown, communicating with Earth and taking pictures in spite of the totally wrong orientation on the ground and reviving promptly when the sun angle was right are tremendous *achievements* showing very robust engineering! The success seems to be on a par with the recovery and return of the near-dead original Hayabusa mission or making good use of Akatsuki in a very wrong orbit.)

SLIM'S ALIVE!! The team reestablished communication with the spacecraft after the Sun inched round in the sky and hit the solar panels. Wild science'ing instantly began!

I don't think #SLIM has a long lunar surface program. It is primarily a technology demonstration to test the image matching navigation (100% success) and 2-step landing (busted due to the loss of one of the two main engines). So I think the multi-band camera will snap hundreds of images while the Sun is up, and then be done.
