Is there an AV1 2.0? I'm not using this codec if they can't do basic semantic versioning right.

just make your claude code task completed notification sound play tweezer

feel this though. also how the era of debating like the best code styles and which new frontend framework is etc best that used to be fun to talk about feels like its coming to an end because no one really cares anymore as long as the bot can build the feature.

Yes, because the U.S. action in the ME is a fully justified gift to the world and Israel has every right to act in self defense.

The European democracies are basically failed states at this point and I just hope we don't end up like them.

first they would need to create docs that aren't useless and completely disorganized to train on. the best way to figure out how to actually use more than the most basic examples of most the gcp sdks is by looking at the source code.

either a hello world example or an autogenerated class list with no explanations /rant

ya i was a GNOME hater for a long time after the GNOME 3 transition, switched between Mate and KDE for years. But gave up on those due to persistent video instability and went to vanilla Ubuntu GNOME and it's actually pretty nice. Not sure if it was good originally but I actually prefer it now.
