In Czech Republic as well. You need to have driven certain amount of hours, have attented theory lessons, then test, followed by a test drive with a policeman.

Couldn't you build some internal knowledge that would stay and you could teach a model this way. A very fast local memory of some sort. You could also specialize model this way so it is very skilled in your domain. The more you use it, the smarter it gets. I guess the problem is for the model to decide whether the information stored in memory is sufficient or not.

My car leaks oil. So I refill it here and there. This fixes issue with any car maker and does not require action of any other actor.

Maybe some of them may have had a purpose. With this one, if you were used to putting your elbows on the table and there were more people around, you just took up too much space and made it unpleasant for others around you.

For me it is just a good habit that I want to keep.

Forrest would be so silent if only the best birds would sing.

Then, run the agent vm-sandboxed, with tests mounted as a read-only directory, if your directory structure allows it.

You can self-host their notification server, and in their app you provide this server's url.

But how ntfy does it then? It is one app that allows you to subscribe to multiple different notification endpoints. I have uptime notifications set up this way.

Wouldn't it be possible for Zulip to go this route as well?

Cheap? Depends on how you look at it. What about treating all those respiratory illnesses caused by burning coal? Is that accounted for in the price of the electricity as well?

I sometimes think of it as a sculptor analogy.

Some famous sculptors had an atelier full of students that helped them with mundane tasks, like carving out a basic shape from a block of stone.

When the basic shape was done, the master came and did the rest. You may want to have the physical exercise of doing the work yourself, but maybe someone sometimes likes to do the fine work and leave the crude one to the AI.

Maybe he meant that the information was consistently incorrect, which was entertaining..

Hi, importing Postman's environments would be nice.

New comment by vitro in "Zed is now available on Windows"

Other editors, at least, display a pop-up indicating that the file has changed on disk in the meantime and ask me if I want to reload the file or overwrite it with my current buffer, or do nothing (geany editor does that, for example). And it happens immediately as soon as I hover over the editor's window.

Interestingly, Zed displays the change right away for the first time, but any other edits are not picked up. I'm using Zed's installer, Zed updated to the latest version, no containers or virtual fs, my partitions are ext4.

vitro — Thu, 16 Oct 2025 09:37:01 +0000

One of the reasons why I'm not fully switching yet is a Zed's inability to update the currently open file with changes made elsewhere [1].

All the other editors I use are aware of outside changes, but not Zed. And I'm just not willing to close and reopen the file to get fresh contents. Eventually, I'll forget to do it and lose some work.

You can ask and explain to them what kind of traffic you'll have. I've shown them the project I'm migrating, and they've opened ports for me right from the start.

True. But you can also be smart about it, and it doesn't have to be something that takes your whole afternoon. 15 minutes of home exercise instead of media scrolling, and at the end of the week, it is 1:45, at the end of the month 7:45 that you've done something. Or just a simple door frame exercise bar where you do a pushup or two now and then. These small things add up. Or to go with friends to play football or my friend started to run, they made a Sunday morning running group. To end with what you've begun, regularity is the key.
