  • I still don't understand why apps these sizes need that many people in the first place, what do they do!?!

  • I switched to Qobuz. They use https://soundiiz.com/ to migrate, I think it was free transfering to them?

    I think it reported a 90% success rate + a few that it picked, but got wrong. It mostly failed on my instrumental stuff, standard stuff was fine.

  • they won't be a grid operator though, just a reseller, they shoudn't have the ability to do anything other than screw up your billing without installing additional equipment.

  • YSK that JetBrains IDEs do not remove old share and cache files from the previous version when upgrading. Every folder includes a local LLM, plugin executables, and old search indices. They go unused.

  • Equally, when your install is fubar, you can uninstall, reinstall an old version and it will re-upgrade all your old (not broken) configs.

    Going to have to try some of those.... Can you actually register emojis as a domain, or is that just the email validation that allows them?

    Edit: most TLDs don't. Smaller ones do sometimes.

  • Cryptocurrency that is pegged 1-1 against a normal currency. I think they have some limitations though.

  • Is it a payment processor problem, or a card issuer problem though?

  • What about the so called 'stablecoins'?

    (Although those sound dodgy AF to me?, not backed 1-1 anymore?)

  • Why do Americans pretend they're not broke when most Americans are in debt?

  • Why LLMs can't really build software

  • The trick is to split up the tasks into chunks.

    Ask it to identify the blocks.

    Then ask it to identify the connections.

    Then ask it to produce the diagram.

  • The idea of the mental model CAN be done by AI.

    In my experience, if you get it to build a requirements doc first, then ask it to implement that while updating it as required (effectively it's mental state). you will get a pretty good output with decent 'debugging' ability.

    This even works ok with the older 'dumber' models.

    That only works when you have a comprehensive set of requirements available though. It works when you want to add a new screen/process (mostly) but good luck updating an existing one! (I haven't tried getting it to convert existing code to a requirements doc - anyone tried that?)

  • Ah, I turned off auto play because it would randomly start playing other music instead of continuing my massive playlist....

  • Yeh, found it in the android app (on tracks, not artists). Not there on desktop though.

    I can play the radio on the app to my desktop though.... Guess that works. Not exactly great UX though.

    Thanks for pointing out that it exists though!

  • Instrumental music for working, music with vocals the rest of the time.

    80% of my listen time is probably instrumental.
