Probably, although they probably can’t force you to reveal it’s your dick that unlocks the phone.

Honestly their launch announcement is so vague it could be everything and nothing.

“Economics is basically math” is one of the greatest PR stunts that anybody ever pulled. Mainstream economics is pseudoscience sprinkled with some maths so people take it more seriously, it has barely any more predictive power than palm reading.

Don’t forget it’s also a bit like Hogwarts students fighting the Deatheaters.

Was it just EXIF information or was it something embedded in the pixels? If it’s just EXIF that’s something you can scrub from the file easily.

Agreed, always amazes me what the open source community can do. It’s also very humbling, I generally like to think of myself as a competent developer but then I see crazy shit like this being done and I’m like damn still got a lot to learn, I wouldn’t even know where to start with reverse engineering a GPU.

How’s the build quality compared to other brands, particularly macbooks? I haven’t found a brand with even remotely the same build quality as a macbook.

Also I don’t think most people understand just how ineffective true vibe coding is. I tried it a few times and could barely get something slightly more complex than a demo todo app working, and even if it was working it was barely prototype level quality of user experience, there is zero chance somebody is deploying vibe coded features into a large, serious production system and not suffering major and immediate consequences because shit just didn’t work at all.

The best you’re going to get out of it is it shortens the amount of time wasted on tiny adjustment to the UI or something.

Alternatively, you can just decide not to give that much of a fuck about losing hair.

That sound badass, where do I sign up?

That’s insane. I thought it was already amazing that you can almost see some amoeba with the naked eye.

There’d also probably be luminescence-based racism since different people would shine with a slightly different color.

Are these percentages referring to total biomass or population count?

The situation isn’t that dire yet IMO, it’s not amazing but things aren’t falling apart yet. I think the libs know on some level they won’t survive unless they keep the treats flowing, which inevitably means easing up on the policy against China and probably even Russia to a degree.

What’s the play here anyway? The population of Greenland is like 60k people. Is it really just Trump’s brainworms acting up real bad or is there some benefit if you do imperialism to Greenland? Do they want to slap a military base there or something?

How’s Asahi Linux going nowadays tho? I know it’s probably not perfect but is it usable day to day?

Eh I’ve seen colleagues that use Vim heavily do their work and they’re like at best 10-20% faster than me when it comes to pure text input/editing, honestly not worth the effort to switch to Vim for me.

Just switch to VSCode or something similar, it has enough features and shortcuts that will quickly make you like at least 80% as productive as you were in Vim. It even has a Vim mode so you can wean yourself off of it more easily.

Honestly never got the appeal of Vim, you need to spend so much time learning and configuring it only to squeeze out a little bit of extra productivity out of it when compared to a “normal” editor/IDE. I don’t see why it’s so important to be able to edit and write code as quickly as possible since most of the time you’re going to be debugging or looking at the code or reading docs.

EDIT: Just noticed you said you don’t code a lot. I think most of what I said still applies, I imagine you don’t spend 99% of the time in the editor typing away.
