@nprofile1q... it's no disrespect, I'm sure there's plenty of areas where I also need ongoing education.
Was reply/reply-all always obvious to you or did you need to be trained? Do you also notice any generational divide in who sends "got it! -me" messages to 100 recipients in your inbox, or is it pretty evenly divided for you?

The U.S. Census Bureau says there are about 65.2 million #GenX ers in the United States. Of those, I would guess maybe about one million know how to "reply" instead of #ReplyAll in an #email thread. Can we increase this number? Surely it's not too late for them to learn?
Ploopy really went and called this thing the Bean. Get flicking, I guess. 💀 If you’ve ever wanted an external, ahem, *pointing stick* mouse, then go no further:

@nprofile1q... they called their other one "knob" so it's a thing

This year I'm seeing folks fed up with instability in #AI-forward #cloud platforms and #SaaS, demanding that they slow down on feature delivery to focus on quality and reliability. That's heartwarming to me as a technologist, but it makes me wonder if AI can even meaningfully help?
We've seen that LLM codegen can shorten timelines for sloppy, okay-enough software. If customer demand turns towards reliability, can you just tune the prompts? Or does it basically invalidate the current LLM stack?

In the meantime, I use jujutsu on 2 of my current projects full time. I do everything, including push/fetch via jj. (with a help of majutsu.el).
The third project have a lot of untracked and ustaged ...
@nprofile1q... does jj have Magit integration or are you using the cli? Last I looked at it, Emacs support didn't seem to be there and it seemed like the jj folks were shoveling slop into it, so I decided to wait and watch.
@LisPi @nprofile1q... JavaScript, golang and rust are all victims of language package managers that work with too little friction, in my view. Python and Java have more humane package commons because the package managers are obnoxious to work with, so people don't want to pull in 5000 transitive package drops to do something routine

@LisPi who's deleting posts? I wonder if there's a thread archiver for fedi like xcancel &co
That thread has been a very interesting indictment of the entire Linux & monolithic kernel design and its consequences.
And yes, a dynamic language/system could do it better, but let's compete somewh...
@LisPi I can't tell what thread you're talking about, but did you see the news that gnu hurd 64 bit port is complete? slowly chugging along

@LisPi to be clear, the shopping cart is not using audio, they're using an electric signal that's in the audio range in terms of frequency, so an electric speaker playing at that frequency will also create a weak electromagnetic signal at a frequency that can be detected by the shopping cart circuit
