I wish there was a way to "freeze" the tests. I want to write the tests first (or have Claude do it with my review), and then I want to get Claude to change the code to get them to pass - but with confidence that it doesn't edit any of the test files!

1. Make tests 2. Commit them 3. Proceed with implementation and tell agent to use the tests but not modify them

It will probably comply, and at least if it does change the tests you can always revert those files to where you committed them

This reminds me about how Soulja Boy just used a cracked copy of Fruity Loops and a cheap microphone and recorded all his songs that made him millions.[1] Edit: Ok this was a big team of VFX producers who did this. Still, prices are coming down dramatically in general, but yeah that idea is a bit of an underfit to this case.

I really don’t see the connection. A$AP isn’t a noob

This article is FUD. No one is spending $30B+ for an attack that gasp extends the required confirmations to a few hours until a re-org can be achieved and accounts settled.

In fact, wiping out the derivative markets would be seen as a net-postive by most individual hodlers.

I believe the article reached the same conclusion you did

Because every unit of electricity causes climate change and burns resources (even renewable sources of electricity - they just burn them slower). From a societal point of view we are dumping huge amounts of electricity and resources into a hole to accomplish nothing that couldn’t be accomplished with a database and a trusted third party at a billionth of the cost (or less).

The vast majority of transactions are speculation on what other people might pay for a bitcoin (i.e., a line on a spreadsheet). And even then, that speculation and trading often occurs on secondary markets which rely on trusted third parties - thus rendering the entire ordeal even more pointless.

You’re right. I’ll setup the database. Everyone can trust me, honest!
comradesmith commented on Cleartext signatures considered harmful   gnupg.org/blog/20251226-c... · Posted by u/derleyici

> Cleartext signatures considered harmful

Really? To me it seems that what’s really harmful is assuming a long string of high entropy hex bytes is a valid signature.

Both detached signatures and cleartext need to be run through verify, so what gives?

Does gpg not error when the post-verification output file doesn’t match the cleartext? That sounds like a bug in gpg

35m ago edit: Apple uses many predictive systems for typing. My sentiment in pointing out just slide to type might be misguided as it does not exist in a vacuum. I'd love to see these tests redone with slide to type disabled. I'm leaving the original comment below for reference.

Slide to type. This "issue" is at most 6 years old for iOS users.

Turn off slide to type if you do not use it. Slide to type does key resizing logic. This is the direct cause of this issue. Please upvote this comment for visibility.

Please reply if you think I'm wrong. I see this get posted frequently enough I'm actually losing it.

Please refer to https://youtu.be/hksVvXONrIo?si=XD7AKa8gTl85_rJ6&t=72 (timestamp 1:12) to see that slide to type is enabled.

comradesmith commented on Rubio stages font coup: Times New Roman ousts Calibri   reuters.com/world/us/rubi... · Posted by u/italophil

People like this makes me want to use Times New Roman more. Maybe not Butterick specifically (the website is fine), but all those people that make a blog and pick a font before even knowing what they even want to write. Most of the time people change the default my web browser has, they make things worse. For a font choice to be any kind of personal expression in my eyes, you first need everything else in place: content, layout, design.

To spite these people I force the use of Arial on the worst offenders. The list is now a couple of thousand websites long.

comradesmith · 3 months ago
You can’t separate layout and design from typeface selection.

But yes I agree content must come first. Typeface probably comes second!

Better to link the actual study rather than what a know-nothing hack has to say about it: https://mmd.iammonline.com/index.php/musmed/article/view/111...

Nothing against the BBC but the most thoughtful journalist has all the scientific knowledge of Tarot Reader’s cat.

Anyway, n=56 which is fine I guess but leaves loads of margin for error.

Personally, I had a cystoscope and at the time had fancy health insurance so went to a bling London hospital and the surgeon insisted I listened to music - saying exactly what this article said. It lowers cortisol after, makes you less restless during and improves patient reported outcomes.

You can look up what a cystoscope is, I elected to do it with a blocker rather than with a general anaesthetic. All I will say is that track Shadowboxin’ by GLA is now completely unlistenable for me!

That is so incredibly rude of you. Science communication to the general public is valuable.

Let’s not forget that the author is a person too, just cause you don’t like it doesn’t mean you’ve got any place to talk down on them.
