The comments aren’t the problem.

I actually blocked deepwiki from all my searches because I was fooled multiple times by the slop into thinking I’m doing something wrong while using the library, only to discover that the „documentation“ showed utter bullshit.

It’s also demonizing doctors and the healthcare system a bit too much for my liking.

I’m located in Europe, so I may have a slightly different view, but my doctors clearly care and discuss with me about prevention, risks, tradeoffs, …

They praise the methods of the „good“ doctors and stamps the others as driven by financial gain. Who says the expensive ones are any better in this regard? Who says they are more or less exaggerating the importance of test results to make you come back?

Does this support private repositories with collaboration?

Why is it even necessary to be an interview? If the computer is used to generate a summary anyway, why not do it via email with one or two follow ups?

Piggybacking on comments regarding the external hosting:

It's just a matter of time until there will be a paywall in front of this. Hook people on something, then demand money.

Basically it removes excess water from the filter, creating less soggy pucks. Easier to clean. I imagine the rapid depressurisation "upwards" may cause the puck to move a bit upwards, again, making it easier to remove.

I have the same impression. I guess the machine is completely passive regarding temperature and requires a) a preheated water source and b) a hot-water flush before each use to heat the machine and push hot water into the hoses

That means it’s a pump attached to a grouphead.

This is likely great for serving SQLite data to frontends using the SQLite http-vfs.

Would be great combined with functions/triggers/views to mirror specific data/queries from Postgres as SQLite.

I admit to not having that much experience in prolog, but I'm having a hard time translating the time parameter `[n]` into executable prolog. Anyone got a clue?

"PostgresSQL"? "SQL Lite"? Not even getting the names of the supported databases right doesn’t create trust…

New comment by rustman123 in "Maintainer of Rust crate 'dirs-sys' intentionally poisons dependents with MPL"

They intentionally added a copyleft-licensed library (options-ext) written by himself to poison the supply chain via `dirs-sys`. (Commit: https://github.com/dirs-dev/dirs-sys-rs/commit/e169da7af901e...)

The dependency adds nothing of value and can trivially be removed. (https://github.com/dirs-dev/dirs-sys-rs/pull/22/files)

When asked about it, they claim to prefer MPL and that the current license was an accident they 'may or may not correct'.

Popular dependents include - cross (https://crates.io/crates/cross) - terminfo (https://crates.io/crates/terminfo)
