Careful, that’s how you get DETROIT ~Become Human~

Not quite sure actually, I think we end up specifying a day or implicitly consider both of them

I’ve generally seen Sunday to be the start of the week here, my current headcanon for it is that Sunday and Saturday sort of book-end on both sides of the week, hence week-end_s_ plural

That PR seems to have been closed rather than merged though, I don’t think it has reverted the change yet

Hello! I wasn’t part of that subreddit but I do use Linux and I’m from Kerala. I usually just lurk without posting here though

My favourite tidbit about them is how there were dedicated devices to bring them back from the brink of unconsciousness: https://museumcrush.org/this-device-was-used-to-resuscitate-canaries-in-coal-mines/

Canonical seems to be based in the UK, going off of the Wikipedia page

I really appreciate the title of the article

I’d received some communication from one of the banks here, which summarised the budget. This section is relevant:

Tax holiday till 2047 to any foreign company that provides cloud services to customers globally by using data centre services from India. It will, however, need to provide services to Indian customers through an Indian reseller entity, safe harbour of 15 percent on cost in case the company providing data centre services from India is a related entity.

It feels like an incentive like any other, to make data center services (not just limited to AI) hosted here. One can probably see this in one of two ways, GDPR-like data privacy or just general surveillance. I’ve seen data privacy regulations taking focus so I’m hopeful, but time will tell

Curtsune Cappu!

Wild guess but maybe there’s some security tightening updates, possibly relating to Linux’s ptrace subsystem since that allows debugger-like access. That could be a direction to look into. Any logs that you can get for them (especially PINCE)?

So I find this to be interesting. Given that the author explicitly stated that he’s not very familiar with the industry, their viewpoint is of one who’s external to the whole bubble.

A lot of the article seems to run under the purported productivity improvements that companies make, especially considering what they mention about LLMs generating “world-class” code. Anyone who uses it for more serious projects knows there is a lot of nuance that’s not really well-captured by code-gen models (and I can see some of the HN comments giving similar experiences)

I see this as a problematic disconnect. Those on the outside have no idea of the reality on the ground, which leads them to have cautious optimism. I’m of the opinion that such opinions would quickly sour if they see the actual productivity loss.

To which I say, it’s going to take a noticeable loss of productivity for companies to recognize that they’re paying extra to get less, and i wonder if this would be the marker for this bubble popping.

Oh man I remember seeing this thing on the Discovery Science channel. They’d play a small clip of this thing between shows

This is really well done! I think the only tell would be how clean everything looks, and I suppose maybe how sharp some of the shadows look when the light source is diffuse

It’s quite rough to get people’s schedules to line up, so it’s not always easy to do so. I appreciate the suggestion, however

Oh this has layers

Mainly Team Fortress 2 and Counter Strike GO/2, cuz both of them have cosmetics with rarities obtained via what effectively amounts to lootboxes. In one sense they also have an out-of-game economy around these things where these items are traded for actual money

You can select Steam Runtime Versions in the Compatibility tab too, separate from Proton versions

I don’t know for sure though, because in theory they keep the core powered down during suspend sleep so in theory there really shouldn’t be any power draw aside from the memory modules. However you’re right that there’s some noticeable difference for some reason
