Lmao, what, that's wild. How did they justify this??

Was it really that unexpected with this image?

Fuck Amazon, fuck Alexa.

But that wall clock is glorious. It's a decently look clock, but seeing how much time you have left on multiple timers with a single glance is so incredibly useful. Especially when you're cooking.

I'm currently in the process of migrating away from the shit Alexa ecosystem, but no matter what I end up with, I'll have to find an alternative for this clock

Did someone say Gemini?

Can you elaborate? Why are people disgusted by Hyprland?

"Bi(e)ber" is German for "Beaver"

For me personally, there is only two applications of LLMs in programming:

  • doing tasks I kinda know how to do, but don't want to properly learn (recent example: generate pgf plots from csv data in matplotlib. 90% boilerplate, I last had to do it 3 years ago and vaguely remember some pitfalls so can steer the LLM in that direction. Will probably never again have to do this, so not worth the extra couple hours to properly learn
  • things I would ordinarily write a script for, but aren't worth automating because they won't come up in the future again (example: convert this Lua table to a Nix set)

Essentially, one-off things that you know how to check for correctness.

Ahh those fuckers.

Especially if you buy access via 2 providers on different backbones. Haven't had a single failed/incomplete download since.

I'm slightly younger than that even, currently finishing up my master's but have been working as a backend dev for a couple of years.

I've learned an order of magnitude more about networking from just being in the vicinity of my girlfriend (who is a network technician) than from uni, and it's definitely already paying off.
