You’d think so, but Windows runs better on snapdragon today than Linux. I was very interested in buying one, but in the current state it’s a toy for enthusiasts.

it’s not that siml- gets taped

I did it that last month, not because I have any expectations of privacy (I wish we could move away from emails entirely), but because I don’t want to be so much at the mercy of what google decides, especially with their recent push on id verification left and right, and ties to this dystopian government. I’m gradually moving away from other of their products too.

If I was browsing options today, I’d also look into calendar and contact management / importing. Proton makes it easy to import existing calendars and they are kept in sync. They’re still improving the calendar features though, so maybe you’ll miss a thing or two there. Contacts are also easy to import, but there’s no feature to keep them in sync with what google has, if you need a transition period. There is a merging/deduplication feature though.

And if you’re using google workspaces, I couldn’t figure out how to send an email from proton using the work domain, so that’s something I still need to use the gmail web client or e.g. thunderbird.

me too, vending machine, me too

6.6.6 is mentioned

so group B doesn’t use frameworks but prefers making things according to a model? What’s a model here? I’m not following

IME some people (at least the ones who care) start more critical repos with good intentions, enabling most of these things.

But then comes a time where a hotfix must be merged asap to production and there’s no one to review it for 3 days; branch protection gets disabled.

or an update in the code quality tooling detects an additional dozen warnings without the codebase changing; check enforcement gets disabled.

I think in most cases this is completely fine. Whoever is already a contributor should know what’s the team policy merging things, and having ways to occasionally bypass these checks can be more beneficial than not.

dont tell me what to do

it’s an h100, I think, no idea about how many users

in my personal setup i use quantized versions on a 3080, which is not great, so I still lean a lot on APIs

they do

Qwen 3.6 and gemma4 models are the only ones usable for agentic prog sessions that I and my employer run locally. It’s less stable and slower than third-party services, even on much better hardware (as it’s with my employer). The best way is to go with a provider hosting deepseek flash/pro if your privacy policy allows though. It’s going to be hard to beat their price.

is that a bundle, or are you rally paying like $0.50 a month for a VPS?

will someone please think of the retention numbers

a measure that will actually help protecting kids? Not on their watch

ha, even if it was true - which isn’t - that would never hurt the stock, the stock market is soulless

Right. But that was from a time where it was your friends and family who had your number, so having to change it was a major hassle not only for you. With it being asked by so many services, that’s eventually ending up in the dark web.

Many people don’t call anymore. A similar group blocks all calls from unknown numbers due to constant robocalls. So a phone number today is just another data point to fingerprint someone. Its usefulness turned into an artificially created need by services that want a cheap way to tell real users from robots.

yeah, phone numbers have been used primarily to fight spam and fake accounts, so my guess is that this practice will become even more common with stricter policies around phone number registration. I hate it.

This basically turns phone numbers into a deregulated government ID number. You’d think they had learned something with SSNs by now.

Some taxi companies use third-party Uber-like apps to connect to riders, the bigger ones might have their own apps, but my guess is that those also ask for a phone number.

The best way might just be hailing one off the street.

afaict they just run the LSP automatically when the agent uses the file edit tool, passing errors/warnings as a response of the tool. Maybe they run it before and after to get only the warnings introduced after the change, maybe they filter by the lines changed, I’m not sure.
