Same for bun, which I find faster than pnpm

This whole article seems a bit pedantic, though I'll admit I am too dumb to grasp the bigger arguments.

Read that book in two days. Wild stuff. Of course I don't absolve Sarah Wynn for of her responsibility that is Facebook and it's completely maliciously run company. She is also complicit I don't care how many "I was trying to do the right thing! Whaa!" she sprinkled throughout the book.

The fact that they successfully got the book removed from sale for a while speaks volumes. They not only lie they are encouraged to.

New comment by trw55 in "Zen browser had a backdoor enabled by default"

trw55 — Sat, 22 Mar 2025 08:37:00 +0000

One dev allowed remote debugging which introduced a backdoor and what's really bad about it is there was no prompt that the remote debugger had been started. He said he thought it would make debugging easier. That was a wtf moment for me. Sure, introduce that feature if you know what you're doing. The devs seem really inexperienced which is concerning.

This seems pedantic. I am trying to wrap my head around why "family sharing" is an issue here. You want to share with someone, use family sharing I don't see what the issue is.

No motivation, sure. But do they even care? Most people just don't care about this stuff. You try to get them to care and they "say, yeah, okay, yeah, I know" as they roll their eyes and go back to scrolling Instagram or whatever.

The apathy is real and I don't see it getting better.

New comment by trw55 in "Kill your Feeds – Stop letting algorithms dictate what you think"

trw55 — Sun, 09 Mar 2025 04:13:06 +0000

My interests vary so widely that my home feed is awful. I like watching videos on power tools, software development, video games, sports highlights, math, and other, less focused things like the hoard of cat video channels I sub to to keep existential dread at bay.

I get recommended right leaning videos and videos with ads for manscaped and I'm neither a conservative or a man. It's super weird so I tend to separate my interests into two apps: the YouTube web app for "junk food content" and FreeTube when I want to learn and focus. It's the only way I've found to not be fed the random content carrots while falling down the rabbit hole.

This is interesting. How do you support yourself if it’s not about the money? Are you in the US? If you are have you noticed you will be paying $10 for a dozen of eggs?

In what world does getting a PhD for curiosity make sense in 2025? It’s not even about money, it’s about literal survival.

The people here in this thread talking about getting a PhD to satisfy an interest in a subject must have never gone to bed for dinner because if they had they’d understand why this position they’re taking doesn’t make a lick of sense.

Want your thoughts. Every time I watch this channel, I feel like everything is overkill. Why does one need k3s to run homelab services, or colocating your infrastructure when it is just you and your partner? I am trying to understand it.

Yes. I tried to click on that twice; the first time within the text of the toast button and then on the right chevron. I really hate having to wait when it's arbitrary and doesn't add anything to the challenge.
