I think that one 🤷 is meant to be gender neutral. 🤷‍♀️ & 🤷‍♂️ are less ambiguous.

Yeah I got it last after reading the article. Was more commenting on the inadequacy of the summary. Then again, the summary was so confusing that it made me read the article…

Completely missed why Biden needs to be written in, the article makes no sense without that.

The US was still fighting in Vietnam while that was happening.

This is a really important insight. To add to it: back when the carbon from Pool 2 was in the atmosphere, dinosaurs were roaming the earth and it was a lot hotter than it is now.

This is obviously a simplification, it but it drives home the point that once the carbon is out of Pool 2 it will cause global warming. The only way to stop that is to stop moving carbon from Pool 2 into Pool 1, ie stop fossil fuel mining.

Of course we could try to move carbon from Pool 2 to Pool 1, but it took the Earth millions of years to do that, and many of the plant species that did it are now extinct. Perhaps once we’re exinct, they might evolve again.

I wonder what editor she used. Hope it was vim!

It’s easier in Firefox with containers. You can use multiple aws accounts on the same profile but different containers. I’ve tried to migrate to blink based browsers for various reasons, but this is what keeps me coming back to Firefox!

As long as y’all keep sending cool posts about programming, I don’t mind.

In one word: Furries

They scanned open source repos and made an LLM out of it. Now companies can profit from open source code without contributing back to the ecosystem. The only contribution they make is the money they pay to Microsoft for Copilot. So Microsoft is profiting from OSS code and stifling its community.

Does this outweigh the free hosting of the code? IDK

Agreed, this reads like a list of things I miss from rust when I’m writing go to me.

It was Google, they Embraced, Extended, and Extinguished it with Google Chat. Then they killed that themselves.

I see so many educated people not realising this. The maths involved is something we learnt in ~ 5th grade, and I distinctly remember doing exercises on marginal rates in primary school in maths class. It’s even simpler than compound interest - which is a staple of maths class later on.

Yet so many people say there’s a problem with the education system that it doesn’t teach practical skills like these. It clearly does, kids just don’t remember it. Maybe it’s because they don’t need to use this knowledge until almost a decade later.
