  • 867-5309: number from 1980s hit song Jenny now routes callers to cancer support

    Jump

  • Yeah, before reading the article I did wonder if they bought the number in hundreds of different area codes.

    I think most people now live in areas where you can't even connect by dialing only 7 digits.

  • what are problems with linux?

    Jump

  • Exactly that. Drivers don't generally have much UI (I guess module load parameters count) so getting it working is most of the job.

    It's the user facing applications which sometimes feel a bit unpolished. That has definitely improved over the years though.

    Jump

  • This is more about open source in general than Linux specifically, but anyway.

    Minor details.

    I get the impression that often the developers are passionate about getting things working, but once it works it's hard to keep going to fix 'papercuts': minor UI issues, documentation, small usability improvements, consistency, etc. They want to move on to the next big feature.

    Of course commercial products can suffer from the same, but if large enough they may have a program manager who assigns people to specific areas like that which get less coverage when it's based on the devs' desire to work on them.

  • Strong agree. I use a derivative that blocks snaps instead of direct Kubuntu now, and it wasn't Just because of the snaps.

  • That's a good point, and I considered mentioning it, but I mean the overall setting.

  • Yann LeCun just raised $1bn to prove the AI industry has got it wrong

    Jump

  • I'm overall still skeptical, but this does sound a lot more like how I imagine a true AI would work. I've also thought LLMs were a dead end for a while now.

  • Study: Bacteria in Kimchi Could Eliminate Nanoplastics from Body

    Jump

  • I agree, but there's hope: It says they injected the mice, which implies that a hypodermic needle could be an option.

    I have no love of needles, but given the alternative...
