A youtube competitor is a CDN problem, i.e., business deals


In this particular case it means the Nx ecosystem, which is a solid Numpy alternative.


They're fairly large (larger than lowercase letters in the header text, comparable to uppercase). Glad you were able to fix it since you prefer them much larger.


Since this is an action, I disagree that 10px is "fairly large". According to WCAG https://www.w3.org/WAI/WCAG22/Understanding/target-size-mini...

It should be 24px minimum, we shouldn't be comparing with the title either.


I know what you mean but it always seemed to me that voting is not a main feature, merely an accessory.


Another angry all-caps rant in an agents file (cf. "NEVER FUCKING GUESS"). As the operator of this tool which you used to delete your production database, you should at least know that angry all-caps ranting pushes the big textual probability engine into the space of things associated with abusive ranting.


I wouldn't do it this exact way either but the benefit is "having any local throwaway integration branch" vs. having none at all. You don't need to do it this exact way to have one.


The "A" in "AGI" doesn't stand for "Apocalypse", you know.

It made some sense as a goalpost when the frontier of "AI" was "a computer plays, specifically, Go really well", now that typical ones are quite general it's just a floating signifier people should probably stop using for anything.


I'm not sure that I'm more impressed with LLMs than I am with alpha go.

Alpha taught itself how to play go by playing over and over again. It learned a new strategy never seen before. I find that a lot more intelligent than an static state LLM regurgitating for loops.


It's interesting to see the strange workflows that come from jujutsu users, as someone who works on git workflows.

There's some counterproductive stuff in there from my perspective but at its core you're keeping up a throwaway integration branch, which is helpful practice if you'll ever care about an integration. It's annoying with git because the interface for updating your throwaway integration branch is very clunky and easy to get wrong.


I think you should revisit the word "just", its presence in the comment you're trying to discuss, and how it's used.


To me it seems it's used with the intent "They don’t just <do X>, they <do Y>," implying that Y is a proper superset of X. My point is that X is in fact a superset of Y, making the most charitable reading "They don’t just <do X>, they <do X in more words>."

Is there another potential reading of "just" that I'm missing?


While this is a perfectly fine policy in the space of possible policies (it's probably what I'd pick, for what it's worth) the arguments being given for it leave a bad taste in my mouth.


Same. Plenty of perfectly valid reasons to outright ban generated PRs, but "Look, I asked ChatGPT to generate a PR which would break SDL, and it did not bother reading AGENTS.md" is a pretty weak take - gotta know thy enemy a little bit better than that.


It's not the argument the maintainer gives. I unironically suggest at least use AI to summarize that thread if you don't bother reading it before commenting.


That seemed like just a curiosity after they already decided on the policy.


You can pry my em dash—short for "Emily's dash", after the poet—from my cold dead hands.


Close, it's the width of the 'M' from the the famous author EMdash Forster's name. ;)


Not even close. It's named after the em drive, after how fast it helps your thoughts flow to written word.


I thought it was a reference to "kill 'em all and let God sort 'em out"

How is there this much misinformation out there about this? It's a neologism based on the character M from the James Bond franchise. Do a little free-association from the phrase "Bond—James Bond" and you end up calling that the M-dash.

Until that relatively recent shift, it was named the Morse Dash—you'd think because of the "long" glyph when rendering Morse Code, but no, it was named for the 17th century English Catholic martyr Henry Morse, for reasons lost to time.
