Everyone thinks I’m crazy for saying this, but I like Microsoft ToDo. And I’ve tried dozens of them. I’ve been using the Microsoft one for the past two years every day.

I liked that one when it was still called "Wunderlist". I'm still mad the owner sold it. He now makes "Superlist" but it's simply not the same :/

Anyone tried running on a Mac M1 with 16GB RAM yet? I've never run higher than an 8GB model, but apparently this one is specifically designed to work well with 16 GB of RAM.

M2 with 16GB: It's slow for me. ~13GB RAM usage, not locking up my mac, but took a very long time thinking and slowly outputting tokens.. I'd not consider this usable for everyday usage.

Day 1357 watching Microsoft not give a fuck about their customers, thankfully I was not brainwashed into being their product from the childhood.

So you are using Google or what? I feel like in Enterprise Environments you don't have much choice between bad and worse.

Hello! GitHub Next here, happy to answer questions and unpack how we think about AI tools for developers (spoiler: it's less about codegen and more about helping with the rest of the dev cycle — building an understanding of how the system works, clearly specifying how it should change, etc)

roboyoshi · a year ago

Interesting stuff! I've been trying ollama/gpt + continue.dev and copilot in VSCode for a bit now and the chat-style assistant is a huge plus. Especially in DevOps (my main work) the codegen is rather unhelpful, but the ability to let LLMs explain some sections and help in rubber-ducking is huge.

I see that a good output requires a good input (prompt). How does copilot workspace determine a good input for the prompt? I see that in the github repo there is already a bunch of "Tips and Tricks" to get better results. What is your experience so far? Should we change our way of creating issues (user-stories / bug-reports, change-requests) to a format that is better understood by AI/Copilot? (half-joking, half-serious).

And I'm assuming you'd get blocked before even finishing the download. I've gotten rate-limited in gmail just for deleting messages too fast

you can generate serviceAccounts in google cloud that act as clients for your google workspace with no additional cost. It's a neat hidden trick to circumvent the google quotas, but you need to write your own clients/wrappers to utilize that properly.

I wonder what will happen to the Spring ecosystem. Will Broadcom close it off and try to monetize it?

roboyoshi · 2 years ago

Totally forgot that Pivotal was acquired by vmware - that makes the whole thing even worse. AFAIK Spring is huge in the java ecosystem, but it's also mainly open-source, right? So maybe the community will take care of it.

Ooh so Google is killing the Route53 competitor? A part of their paid Google Cloud Service?

I'll never trust Google cloud with any production infra.

roboyoshi · 2 years ago

DNS is still possible with Google Cloud DNS, but you cannot purchase domains.

For someone who has tried to avoid hearing as much as possible about this drama (and didn't notice this was about Twitter until looking at the comments), what are the condensed "lesson learned" takeaways if you don't mind elaborating?

roboyoshi · 2 years ago

- When you fire a lot of engineers, legal, security experts... things will still somehow keep working - Also some people still want to keep working at this place (or must, because of VISA etc); It probably happens all the time, just this time everyone was watching it in full motion. - I was sure this whole takeover was the end of twitter, but somehow with how many users twitter has, it just won't die. Goes to show the advantages of the mass.. probably the same applies to microsoft/google.. - The whole 8$ for a checkmark story.. which destroyed the whole trust in the checkmark basically immediately. The whole verification process (how that worked) - many people shared some insights on that and how much effort it was to fine-tune all of that with the scale of twitter. - The free API just being shut down with basically zero communication to devs. and somehow getting away with it. I guess this is a reoccuring theme in tech that a small company has to be open for developers until it's big enough to turn on them. - With the reduced engineering and the new management, it seems more errors slip into production (and incidents like the one now) - or maybe it just feels like it with all the focus on twitter right now - but anyways, you just see things breaking you normally would not expect to see.. - How people are communicating, or in this case not communicating.

I'm probably not the ideal person to write this down, there was so much stuff going on, some people probably made a whole blog-article series on this. This is just a few of the things that I'm able to remember right now.. and with everything on hn here it gives you some ideas and things to think about. Hope that Helps.

In case people are wondering what this is about: All links and images are not working on twitter right now. Seems like they accidentally included their own services in the api blocklist? Sending best of luck to the engineers. The whole twitter saga has given me a good chunk of valuable "lesson learned" over the last weeks and months.. so thanks for that.

Orpheus will rate appropriate XLD and whipper logs as 100% fwiw

Also I could be wrong, but don't most trackers still accept rips that they consider inferior, but then they could be trumped by someone else that made an EAC rip?

roboyoshi · 3 years ago

From my experience an XLD rip can be equal to an EAC rip in terms of rating on the site (RED and OPS). I've always been ripping this way and always had a perfect score; It's not easy though. There is a lot of nuances that influence the score, so you need to do a lot of reading and checking.
