That's almost certainly per server instance though, there's no mention of any type of synchronization across multiple instances, so if you e.g run many small ones or run the service as a lambda I'd be surprised if it worked like you expected.

We're also struggling with this, as we'd love to e.g. just run a formatter and commit the changed code in CI rather than just fail the code.

I tried Aider recently to modify a quite small python + HTML project, and it consistently got "uv" commands wrong, ended up changing my entire build system because it didn't think the thing I wanted to do was supported in the current one (it was).

They're very effective at making changes for the most part, but boy you need to keep them on a leash if you care about what those changes are.

Whoa! Small world. That was a fun story.

I think it depends on how thorny the thing you need to debug is. Race conditions, intermittent bugs that crash the process leaving no trace, etc. Debugging is much more than using a debugger

Does it? Nobody's arguing that trans women are female.

I don't really think we have. There are many open source projects that duplicate work for a variety of reasons. Perfectly fine for stuff you want to do, but probably not an optimal allocation of resources

Aw, I hoped for a second for global coverage.

I wonder if these graphs capture the new multi-threaded frontend that's on nightly.

It's unclear to me based on your post, but you do realize that public IPs very much count as personally identifiable information under the GDPR, right?

Yes, some of the forests will be untouched nature but a good chunk of it will be for timber production.

Does anyone have any idea if we can expect a MacBook Pro with M4 release announcement this week as well?

Something similar (but not quite the same) exists through sources like CCF ( https://www.cloudcarbonfootprint.org/ ) or Climatiq ( https://www.climatiq.io/docs/api-reference/computing ) thought I don't think anyone has anything built-in to Terraform or your editor, which would be neat.

Disclaimer: I work at Climatiq

To be fair, I can remember 0 times where as an API consumer I've needed to do different actions depending on whether it was a 401 or a 403 - but I also mainly deal in API->API communication.

It happens even on prolonged vacations. So I don't actually have to get up at any particular time (my partner does) so I don't really buy the stress theory, it feels more like a pretty fixed circadian rhythm in regards to when I'm tired/awake - as I can push the rhythm but it takes a fair chunk of days. I imagine like adjusting to a new timezone.

I'm generally an early riser, and I just go to bed early and (generally) wake up a little before my alarm. Even if I go to bed late I wake up at around the same time (even though I might like to sleep in) I don't think that early risers are primarily due to external constraints hold.

If these toxins build up in animal cells - why would you eating meat (that must then have a much higher concentration) not expose you to the same toxins?
