It's frustrating that #Spotify has no option to exclude AI-generated music from the music it auto-chooses to play. Seems like it's pushing AI-generated music more and more as time goes on even though I diligently keep blocking said artists.

Google search results have gone down in quality immensely. "github benjojo hot-clone" doesn't find repo at github.com/benjojo/hot-...

It just finds benjojo's profile page where I have to click at GitHub side repos and search for hot-clone manually 🤦

(Search query: www.google.com/search?q=git... )

My app that uses #OpenAI API broke (credits ran out error) due to me buying credits a year ago and not knowing the money expires in a year. No warning email or anything before my app broke. What a shitty business practice. Completely lost my trust. This thread 🤡🤌 community.openai.com/t/credit-exp...

Of course downloading .zip archive from Microsoft's OneDrive doesn't preserve file modification times. (for context, doing same on Google Drive DOES).

Metadata is important!

First days using helix-editor.com for actual work. There's definitely a learning curve (I wasn't advanced in modal editors like Vim to begin with) but I'm really excited,can see myself loving it! Also I like the philosophy of it being like Vim but batteries + LSP included so no messing with plugins!

Do people keep choosing #microsoft out of:

a) incompetence
b) financial reasons (cheapest choice / corruption via kickbacks?)
c) something else?

Background: I got locked out of customer system due to infinite loop after customer's MFA policy change (I had enrolled Google Auth before the change)

Node.js + NPM 🤌

New tool I made: github.com/joonas-fi/sh...

plantuml.com => homepage for software
www.plantuml.com => live editor using the software

Can't decide if that's
a) jarring
b) dumb or
c) harmless but questionable idea. 😅

Additional confusion comes from Chrome displaying the www. as naked domain! Ok, that settles it, it's either a) or b)

How lazy and/or lacking professional pride must a company be to deprecate v1 of their REST API by just responding with "HTTP 410 Gone" and nothing else, leaving developers to figure if there's a server issue with them or an issue in my end... 👏👏 api.todoist.com/rest/v1/

Notes on sharing USB devices over network in Linux with USB/IP: github.com/joonas-fi/jo...

Came as a total surprise to me: Linux doesn't seem to care about block device I/O errors - it's near impossible to see if a block device or a filesystem is healthy since there's no keeping track of error statistics for either. My research notes: github.com/function61/v...

I wonder if anybody has yet developed an AI bot that responds to scam emails / Whatsapps etc. convincingly and just wastes the scammer's time by engaging in back-and-forth while never giving the scammer what she wants. Could be an efficient way to combat scams by making leads really "expensive"?

From the Xz backdoor discussion there is an important aspect missing: the vulnerability wouldn't be possible if the C-based world wasn't so complex as to allow messing with imports at runtime. In pure Go and other statically-linked paradigms this is simply not possible.

People have been asking for a while now, and the team has finally done it: the @oxidecomputer.bsky.social RFD website is now open sourced:

one of my favorite command line discoveries is that of “transient prompts,” where you can get a dense, multi-line, information-filled prompt that doesn’t pollute your backscroll.
