It’s marketing making them think they want to own that stuff.

Developers rarely control the tools budget; their managers do.

So this whole article is a moot point

Developers detest marketing. If you want to sell them a tool, make it easy for them to find the information they need and leave them alone to try out your tool.

So marketing does work, just not “traditional” or “mainstream” marketing. We’ve had shareware since the beginning times, which was the ultimate try before you buy. Now we have the subscription model (fbow).

Yeah I’d like to think I’m better than marketing, but really, it just takes the right marketing, and I’m putty in their hands.

Yeah maybe that’s what it was for me, too: a gut feeling that something was off about the videos.

I think I like Astrum, but I feel like some of their videos go over the edge into conspiracy nut territory.

(Anyone else feel like we should recommend putting the channel in the post title, like “[Astrum] I Might Stop Making Videos About NASA”?)

I haven’t been following Atlassian recently and was wondering if you were just tossing that out there… But no, that is literally their plan:

This deal is a bold step forward in reimagining the browser for knowledge work in the AI era,” Mike Cannon-Brookes, Atlassian’s CEO and co-founder, said in a statement.

“Together, we’ll create an AI-powered browser optimized for the many SaaS applications living in tabs – one that knowledge workers will love to use every day,” he added.

import inspect, builtins

def HelloWorld(funcname):
    caller = inspect.currentframe().f_code.co_name
    getattr(builtins, funcname)(caller)

HelloWorld("print")

Yes, that’s what I meant with my “for now” and “for the moment”.

Microsoft has already said it doesn’t matter where your data is stored, it isn’t safe from the United States.

But you can change this behaviour in settings, it’s just the default for now.

So, if you don’t trust Microsoft to handle your documents, but still somehow use MS Word and OneDrive, for the moment you can still stop it from saving your Word documents to their servers.

Yes, but we’re afraid of the consequences. I’m all in myself.

Good thing he didn’t actually say it would be the next Windows doing any of those things. He didn’t even say it would be the OS:

“I think we will see computing become more ambient, more pervasive, continue to span form factors, and certainly become more multi-modal in the arc of time … I think experience diversity is the next space where we will continue to see voice becoming more important. Fundamentally, the concept that your computer can actually look at your screen and is context aware is going to become an important modality for us going forward.”

The important and scarier part is actually the last sentence, not anything from the article title.

Looks like that will be a tough one to find. Have you tried putting up a request on any private trackers?

The highest estimate of people killed in the conflict (both sides) that I can find is around 100. This whole article seems like made up slop.

When I looked into this newspaper I found some comments (on Reddit :-/) saying it is a fake news rag published by a right-wing nationalist group in Thailand.

Same! This is really surprising based on the other stuff I’ve read.

Oh ho! I 󠁤󠁯󠁮󠀧󠁴 see what you did there!

Both can be discussed. In fact many levels of this can be discussed, from the effect on individuals and families involved in the crash, the effect on the owners of the buildings, the effect on the airport, the city, the airline, the country.

Just because they’re talking about the effects of a disaster like this on Air India, it doesn’t take away from what happened to the individuals. It shows the massive reverberations of an event like this.

The airline still has individuals working for it whose livelihood is potentially affected. There are people making the planes that the airline is purchasing. It’s people who live in India who are in mourning over the individuals who died but also shocked at the impact to a symbol of national pride.

If you’re not ready to think about the people beyond those directly affected, that’s fine. (I’m not being facetious. Everyone processes things in a different way. It’s really okay.) But a story like this is inevitably going to be bigger than those individuals and people will talk about different aspects of it. If it wasn’t that big, we probably wouldn’t be hearing or talking about it at all at this point.

Any chance of bringing this one back? It doesn’t seem to be working.

Edit: Nevermind, seems the problem is on my end.

TLDR: 3.11 is twice as fast as 3.10 at doing global name lookups, so an old speedup hack of aliasing a global function locally isn’t needed.

For example, when calling len() in a loop, going l=len, and calling l() in the loop was faster in 3.10. In 3.11, moreso in 3.13, it’s almost a wash.

However, the author says this:

Accessing functions through a module [e.g. math.sin()] or a deep attribute chain can still carry overhead. Creating a local alias or using “from module import name” continues to be effective in those situations.

But when I look at the numbers, I would say 3.13 is pretty close to making it an unnecessary optimization in general. A little subjective on how you interpret the numbers.

Great info, but this was like trying to use a recipe and reading the author’s life story to get there.

More than 10,000 evacuees are being supported by the Red Cross and 860 are being supported by the SPSA (Saskatchewan Public Safety Agency).

About 15,000 have fled Saskatchewan wildfires and more coming: Premier Moe

Moe said he has spoken with his provincial counterparts, as well as Prime Minister Mark Carney, and was told that resources would be made available to battle the fires that continue to affect more than 30 communities.

I’m ootl, what happened to Nova? I have it on my old phone.

It’s really not that great, in my opinion. Stilted acting, direction and writing. None of it is believable.
