yup, though it's worked pretty well with the languages I've tried it with (go & rust)

Sublime does as well, for languages with LSP support

> Is your complaint that the projects are folder-based instead of taking the form of a "project file" containing a list of files in the project

as an aside, you can totally do this with do this with sublime-project files if you want.

they don't use QT; they use a custom toolkit.

That's the consumer variants; the Threadrippers will almost certainly not be at a lower rated TDP than current gen's 280W. If they increased it by same percentage as they did for consumer, it'd be 450W, but that's unlikely; 350W might be in the cards, though.

funnily enough, a 20mm anti-tank rifle _was_ used in a crime back in 1965, to bust open a vault at a Brinks facility.

Threadripper is pretty reasonably priced; a 5995WX is about $101/core, or about 3% more than a Epyc 7773x for 10% more performance. For comparison, a Xeon Platinum 8380, which has roughly similar perf per core, costs $224/core. Sure, consumer CPUs are a bit cheaper; i9-12900kf is about $45/core (though half of those are slow cores) and 5950X is about $34/core, but price discrimination for server lines has always been fairly standard. I think the least expensive you can get into Epyc Milan is around $55/core, but that's on a part that only needs half the cores on an 8-core chiplet to be functional; the 7773x needs all of them, for 8 chiplets, and the 5995WX is that but with even tighter binning for higher clocks.

yup. with google messenger it was used almost exclusively to spam google messenger users, and that's what'll happen with this as well.

on iOS, at least, the Tailscale app will pop up a push notification for you to authenticate in that case; I'm not sure if the same is true on Android but could be worth checking your notification settings.

no, you cannot; you must use a SSO provider.

Yeah, 1.17 got register (instead of stack) calling convention on amd64; 1.18 expanded that to arm64, which should be responsible for most of that performance improvement.

all you have to do is run it through an "AI" and then what comes out is definitely not a derivative work and you can legally use it however you like. Microsoft is very confident in this; just see Copilot.

Let me know when you can buy one of decent quality in the US with actual physical controls instead of some insane touch system designed by somebody who has apparently never actually been in a kitchen and marketed to people who won't use it but just want a thing that looks cool.

As long as the feature doesn't exist, people have to make websites that work without it. As soon as it does, people will instead switch to obnoxious interstitial screens telling and/or insisting that you enable push notifications or whatever to continue using the thing.
