The guys who annoyingly correct dates after the new year still have work, apparently!

Other people have good points, but even if you don't care at all about open source or MS, Github's reliability lately has been really bad. I think they've had 3 outages this month already? It's been disruptive at my workplace and we have concerns about how we'd deploy a fix if we had an outage at the same time (since our deploys are automated using GH Actions).

The child should learn that blackmailing an adult cannot succeed. I think that would help prevent future flushes on its own.

Question is whether the Republican govenors still end up going "unofficially" or whether they all refuse to actually meet Trump.

Why is it indefensible? It's literally an island which limits attacks to air and sea.

Worth noting that in BC the pharmacist can also write the prescription, so a doctor's appointment isn't strictly required.

They don't need to; most developers rely on Github.

I never understood why people use Tailscale

I use it for the NAT busting and direct connections. This means that my devices can talk directly to each other, even when there's NAT and dynamic IPs sitting between the devices with no port forwarding. This is not possible with Wireguard alone; usually you end up with a hub and spoke network model.

As for them man-in-the-middling, the client is open source (for Android and Linux at least) and traffic is end-to-end encrypted. If you don't want to trust them with distributing the keys (completely valid concern) then it's possible to configure things such that you must sign the keys of clients yourself for your devices to trust them (see Tailnet Lock).

In my case, because I like self-hosting, I self-host an open-source coordination server called Headscale. So in at least my circumstance I really am only using my infrastructure and open-source code.

I think you missed the point of his post. His issue is that the numeric operations the phone executes to run the LLM is producing garbage. Arguably this could break all kinds of neural networks, such as voice transcription. He's not complaining that the LLMs are themselves unable to properly perform math.

Do they sleep inside the house? Like, are they housepets jumping up on your table and bed?

Sadly, at least in the North American market, Google's Pixel phones are basically the last good phones you can reliably install your own ROM on.

I know tons of couples that use apps that let them look up each other's location.

 

By 'Git instances' they mean Gogs instances that allow open registration. I know most of the community moved from Gogs to Gitea, and then to Forgejo, but thought this was still worth noting.
