I am right handed but left handed for some very specific things such as playing pool or hockey

It depends on who you ask

what's preventing you from going to their website? op has linked directly to the documentation, so that info is not necessary expected to be there

does that mean this data center was way overprovisionedo or that grok is barely used and they could potentially kill it and just use claude?

That's pretty interesting. I was thinking about starting a new pet project and was considering doing it in Rust to learn as I never tried anything with it and after some small pocs I had the feeling it was too verbose to my taste, but wasn't sure it was just me and/or my lack of experience with Rust. Still, wonder if it's still worth it to give a shot considering other positive elements of the language.

this. I really enjoyed the Niri approach when I discovered it and missed something similar for my mac. This is the best implementation I have tested so far, and while there are definitely some quirks, at least in my case I feel it completely usable as a daily driver(love the tabbed columns) kudos to maintainer and contributors

not only Safari, several other apps such as Music (which also has several annoying quirks) never understood why they did not get their own lifecycle if they have dedicated teams for each of those apps

And what about the companies that thought that advertising (sorry, suggesting) their product through this channel was a good idea?

dagi3d — Sat, 28 Mar 2026 13:59:55 +0000

agree. I guess it's a force of habit, but I am so used to the cmd+ (specially copy & paste) shortcuts, that I configured them into my linux desktop to behave the same way

sorry, still don't get no tests as an excuse to go faster. obviously ymmv, but you will need to test your implementation somehow, and manual testing usually takes more time than running your automated tests. no need to over test, but definitely tests doesn't mean it will slow you down, unless you don't know how to test, which in that case, that's totally up to you.

I am in the same boat. I would like to buy a new m5, but being forced to keep Tahoe is preventing me to get it until they fix this clusterfuck

also, from not that long time ago, you can change the focus of panes and you can tell it to respect the zoom state if you want, which is super convenient

Why are they increasing the prices on already existing infrastructure? Is that a way to "subsidize" the new purchases?

Acquisition cost can definitely be calculated. I'm pretty sure they know how many customers do convert into paying users from their free tier and how much does it cost to get them through other channels
