what if pluribus was about a boymoder called karl sturka who makes a living as a java developer but all she wants to do is write rust so she's very jaded. and then the hive sends out one of the fallout new vegas love interests to convince her to let it hang and join them.

guy whos against LLM code assistants because it's tivoization in the cloud
the genius of the GPL is its virality, lot of people miss that. It was designed to use copyright as a weapon against itself to build sustainable communities, not to be an end in itself.

i removed the denormals in some super slow scientific stuff and i got like a 30% performance increase. so far that's expected but where's the catch. am i stupid. why do people not do this all the time for pratical applications that don't require arbitrary precision

You like Huey Lewis and the News?
Um, they're okay.
Their early work was a little too new wave for my taste. But when Sports came out in '83, I think they really came into their own, commercially and artistically. The whole album has a clear, crisp sound, and a new sheen of consummate professionalis
