Laughing in NixOS…

“by an accident”…

I guess that’s what I meant with “it depends on your social circle”.

I’m a programmer (in europe btw. not sure if this is really a culture thing) around cool dudes (in my job, as I think this is where all of this mostly applies), probably helps, that they don’t give too much a shit about “prestige” and clothing etc. as well. If I had to do with a lot of “VIP” trying to sell something, the situation may be different.

Well kinda sad to hear that, I think it’s much more important what the person is about “on the inside” (i.e. if talking bullshit, or being highly intelligent or super informed, arrogant, socially intelligent etc.) than how they look from the outside (I mean within limits, If I can smell the person from a far distance, it’s probably too much…).

Obviously the inside/outside thing often correlates. When someone always wears fancy-dancy suits with a tie while not required, they’re probably a douche^^, shallow or having to prove something otherwise (like “I’m very important”). But after a first impression I think the “inside” dominates the perception, and defines the person… That’s at least my assessment, and why I don’t give too much shit about what the person is wearing…

YMMV

I mean I try to chose t-shirts with a minimal amount of holes^^ (which is unfortunately a problem for merino-wool I like to wear (because comfort)). But other than that I basically give a shit, about what I wear, I don’t think anyone else cares much about it either, nor do I. It’s also not a thing that anyone spoke to me about it so I guess I’m fine?

I think it’s a lot of internalized pressure and overthinking about what to wear, so why do it, when no one really cares?

Yeah that annoys me actually more. You often already see in the beginning what kind of (predictable) romance is developing, which just distracts from the main and more interesting plot, adding some kind of annoying drama that is just not necessary.

I mean it certainly depends on your social circle, but not really?

But have you heard of NixOS? In case you still have time left…

Haha. On a more serious note, it gets better over time. I recommend keeping a really functional programming style in Rust and only opt out to imperative programming, when it just makes sense (e.g. to optimize, avoid allocs etc.). I’d say Rust is currently my most productive programming language, because I mostly avoid the time-consuming debugging part due to the strictness.

Psst… Have you heard of Rust yet?

4o is also not really much better than 4, they likely just optimized it among others by reducing the model size. IME the “intelligence” has somewhat degraded over time. Also bigger Model (which in tha past was the deciding factor for better intelligence) needs more energy, and GPT5 will likely be much bigger than 4 unless they somehow make a breakthrough with the training/optimization of the model…

Seemingly, it’s sad. I just cannot fathom this, to me when someone is repeating lies I just declare him idiot. What I find concerning is the level, i.e. they don’t accept logic facts and seemingly once that downward-spiral occured they cannot get out of their screwed conception of the world. I begin to “understand” why Nazis back then had success with what they did…

Yeah I know, but that doesn’t change the fact that there’s a significant amount of people missing a brain… Not that I can do anything about it. And it’s not that europe is way better in this regard with the rise of right-wing-populism (but Trump is just idiocracy level).

Let it be 45%… What the fuck is wrong with a huge amount of muricans? Completely brain dead it seems…

I have hopes, that servo as a little more independent web engine, will thrive in the future

I think it’s just to avoid explaining why, and how they harvest your data. That said, I also hate how a lot of errors of the big corpo are just like “This site has an error” no error-code, no further feedback what to do etc.

I guess ublock origin is doing wonders then, for me it’s still the same…

Valid for democracy, but not valid for the problems we’re facing (i.e. most importantly climate-change)

They obviously have to sell something. I doubt that they honestly think that this will happen.

It did, but not enough (I hope)

Yeah he’s a legend in CS… Muskrat just further rides himself into being the fool of centuries
