Electron is the abomination, not VSCode, and JetBrains IDEs are developed by... JetBrains, not Oracle.

It's not "horseshit" - I gave you a caveat precisely so that you can understand the limitations of my comparison, and so that you don't need to be so antagonistic.

lightweight

I launched VSCode fresh this morning. Just now, 4 hours later, I closed it and watched my system memory usage: 1.3GB. I am doing remote development, so there's a whole server process as well which is chomping a few GB. My old laptop repeatedly ground to a halt until the OOM killer woke up/I rebooted as its measly 32GB of RAM couldn't cope with two VSCode sessions (plus other normal apps) after a while.

It's kind of an abomination when VsCode, supposed to be a lighter IDE, runs like dogshit compared to JetBrains, a fuckin' Java based IDE. Since when was Java light on RAM?

(Caveat: I haven't directly compared their memory usage, my experience is in very difference codebases for each)

Well, they will if vibe coding takes off. But if not, it's not that different from how it's quite reasonable to choose python because of its massive community and archive of Stackoverflow answers.

You can build infrastructure that encourages reasonable people to drive slower (an example I'm thinking of - you can remove priority rules at a junction and force drivers to negotiate it on a more ad hoc basis, which requires a lower speed to see what everyone is doing). You can't build infrastructure which does this for everyone. Joe Twatface will just speed through that junction and let everyone else slam their brakes on.

A lot of features that discourage dangerous driving also prevent emergency vehicles from going at high speed.

On faster roads, these traffic-calming measures are generally undesirable also.

So: the methods are limited and have disadvantages. Traffic cameras can fill in the gaps.

If your traffic cameras are accessible to private companies who can misuse that data, that's a problem that needs to be addressed in legislation. If your traffic cameras are accessible to police who are fundamentally compromised as part of a proto-fascist state apparatus, it'd be good to link your protests against cameras (which exist all around the world) to their use by proto-fascists (which haven't co-opted the government all around the world, yet). And there are probably more effective ways of disrupting them.

They weren't children after all; they were adults and the pickling shrunk them

I have a C2 with LibreELEC but last time I checked there were zero os updates for years :( any suggestions?

I don't really think that's how embarrassment works.

If that were the way people thought, every single person on earth would be sharing their nudes on OnlyFans or similar. In actual fact, (the prospect of) embarrassment and shame prevent them from doing so.

Hey. Hey. Fuck you.

The concept of "the meta" arises from the idea of players playing a metagame in which they're picking strategies which work well against the strategies other players pick. The idea I think was that it wasn't necessarily the best strategy, but it was one that reliably worked against those strategies others pick, so it highlights the possibility that there are unexplored strategies.

But because it identified popular strategies it became used just to mean that even in single player games where there is no metagame at all.

That is most trading by volume, but it's not using LLMs.

Yeah it's so useful to know the division table of the units so you can break it down, like how a mile is 1760 yards so I know that half a mile is.. uh...

Guess that's why the text uses decimal point miles.
