Could use the browser versions of the office tools as an intermediary.

This will throw out quite a few babies with bath water. I get that hard lines are more simple on the surface, but they rarely are in practice. What about local autocomplete. That probably alienates any software made in the past few decades. Local run open source models?

Throwing out jujutsu, for example, due to generating some test cases with language models just seems silly to me.

Generally need a reason to do something. Don’t see how signing this moves the needle. Protest and contact congressmen. Internet petitions won’t save you. Collective action irl, strikes, and raising hell might.

The problem will get worse until consumer protection and privacy are priorities. It will only get worse yet with the growth of identity verification enforcement across technologies.

I’m not disputing that. I’m just saying when the mongol horde arrived, the besieged cities didn’t say “How are we supposed to surrender? You attacked us.”

The same way you do in one you did start.

I think we should just use sidereal and let the hours of the day rotate smoothly over the year.

There are some indications that those one hour switches can be dangerous because of the impact in those two days. I’m not saying it is clear, but there is impact. Both because the driving conditions improve with respect to lighting, but conversely because driver alertness is lower due to sleep troubles for the time change.

Personally I’ve never really bought the whole “more sunlight” thing. We get precisely the same amount. Of course, you mean during business hours but I just don’t feel that is very relevant to a broader society with more diverse schedules.

I’m an idiot with a poor memory. It was John Stewart.

Omg! You’re right. My memory has betrayed me once more. Mea culpa.

Following in the footsteps of Hashicorp, Hudson, etc. Zed has chosen to cash in the good will of its now substantial user base and start going to full corporate enshittification. Among other things like minimum age nonsense, they have also added binding mandatory opt-OUT arbitration.

I find such agreements very troubling, because it gives up public funded dispute resolution for private which nearly unanimously benefits larger entities, it lowers transparency to near zero, and eliminates the abilities to act as a class and to appeal. But I worry most will just accept it, as is the norm.

You can however opt out by emailing arbitration-opt-out@zed.dev with full legal name, the email address associated with your account, and a statement that you want to opt out.

I'll just consider my days of advocating for Zed as an interesting new editor over and go back to Neovim bliss.

Thanksgiving is my favorite holiday, because it celebrates the harvest and can be treated as a day for gratitude. My family also calls it T. Hanks Giving and celebrates by eating pie and watching Tom Hanks movies.

I’m thankful for many things, this year my puppy. He has been great for my family and my mental health personally. For what are you thankful?

Interesting new logic analysis channel on the scene and it seems very well done.

 

I find the hard puzzles take a long time too.

Said of Mozilla’s recent change to terms and privacy.

 

I like smooth scroll. I love Neovim. So I use Neovide. But I really wanted a nice way to manage instances per git repository / project, including server / remote socket management and allowing files to be opened into the correct instance. It detects running instances and opens into or switches to them accordingly.

This is also integrated into Finder and open via a swift wrapper. So one can, for example, use raycast to quick switch projects.

Check it out if that sounds interesting. There is also a longer video guide on the Usage wiki.

 

This has gotten some attention, especially about a week ago, but I really hope more people will continue to try it and, if interested, support it. It is Firefox, but heavily modified to please a different audience that prefers a slightly different UI than Firefox. It has some of the appeal of Arc, Vivaldi, and the Sidebery extension.

In my view, it is very promising, and all competition in this space is good. Here it is on Github, also.

 

When you copy the URL for sharing in YouTube, it adds a query parameter now, so=blah, for tracking the source. This removes that. It could of course be smarter and stop at either the end or the next parameter, but since I haven’t seen any extras, I just remove everything after.
