Please tell us more! What do you mean by correctly?

kubafu — Sat, 05 Sep 2026 16:09:47 +0000

Since land warms much faster than water, and Earth's surface is mostly water, then 1.5C average means how much land warming itself? Isn't talking in averages a way to feel better about all this?

Not using agents seems like a solution to me.

Are we gonna see "we work those unusual hours because that's when LLMs are cheap"?

A lot of us is avoiding more by choosing not to fly.

Side note - the moment I upvoted the original submission it vanished, so readding it.

USA is such a weird place these days. Is there a way back to sanity once this administration ends?

Growing up we watched Blazing Saddles, Young Frankenstein, and Silent Movie almost every week. Happy birthday Mel, thanks for all laughs and grotesque which shaped us.

Tell me you don't see the value in the tax as a way of discouraging people from ordering a pair of socks from the other side of the globe, while they can buy them locally?

New comment by kubafu in "Leaving Mozilla"

First of all thanks for posting what's on your mind and everything you did at Mozilla. Sorry to hear you are burnt out, hope you get better with time.

I've been a loyal Firefox user since forever - reading, writing, web dev I do is always in Firefox. It's a first app I always install. I'm grateful Firefox exists, and the world (at least mine) would be much worse if it wasn't around.

I don't like Mozilla is taking money from Google - I'd prefer if it was all community driven, to the point of a community owned co-operative, but I'm probably delusional.

Yet, I'm hopeful for the future.

In a parallel universe - UK never left EU as Scotland, Northern Ireland, and City of London kicked out England and Wales out of UK, and saved everyone years of turmoil.

I thought you were joking so I went to check it myself and... unfortunately you were not. That is insane.

My default editor for the past couple years. Love the simplicity, speed, and the fact I can navigate comfortably with just the keyboard. Plus Elixir LSP integration is a cherry on top.

Also GNU grep doesn't claim to be intelligent.
