- Comment on President Donald Trump bans Anthropic from use in government systems 1 day ago:
And Anthropic refused? Surely they must be the evil ones!
- Comment on Resident Evil Requiem currently peaking at over 300,000 players on Steam 2 days ago:
And it was the best Resident Evil for a very long time. Honestly, being the best can cut both ways. I’ve avoided buying remakes for some of my favorite games because “I’ve already played the campaign 5 times, am I really gonna pay $60 to play it a 6th?”
- Comment on Resident Evil Requiem currently peaking at over 300,000 players on Steam 2 days ago:
Remakes will never be as popular as new games.
- Comment on Weekly Recommendations Thread: What are you playing this week? 3 days ago:
You were quite close to it when you got your mask shard…
- Comment on One good thing about getting into a new relationship is that you get to re-tell all your best jokes and stories 3 days ago:
Thanks for the tip, I’ll make sure to avoid any philosophy education.
- Comment on One good thing about getting into a new relationship is that you get to re-tell all your best jokes and stories 3 days ago:
My wife is forgetful, and I retell her jokes all the time. I reader this post and madea joke about it at her expense. She got grumpy about it, but I won’t have to worry about that for too long.
- Comment on US strike kills three on boat in eastern Pacific 1 week ago:
Surely if you can track these ships to open waters, you could just seize one of them and tell the world exactly how much cocaine they contained. If you were confident in what it contained, it’s a no-brainer, everyone would back off and say “Well, it’s illegal to missile random boats, but the threat is real and their Intel is good so…”
I can only think of one reason they haven’t done this yet: They’re not actually that sure they’re drug shipments every time. There’s a good chance a number of those boats are just random civilian boats.
- Comment on Jack Dorsey's New Company Falling Apart as It Forces Employees to Use AI 1 week ago:
I had a meeting with my boss today about my AI usage. I said I tried using Claude 4.5, and I was ultimately unimpressed with the results, the code was heavy and inflexible. He assured me Claude 4.6 would solve that problem. I pointed out that I am already writing software faster than the rest of the team can review because we are short staffed. He suggested I use Claude to review my MRs.
- Comment on Elder Scrolls 6 Is Powered By New Version Of Creation Engine 1 week ago:
I love this story because it’s obvious your son asked this during the several minute long loading screen. No matter what year it is, Bethesda games take at least a minute to load.
- Comment on The Highguard Website Is Down As Players Brace For The Worst 1 week ago:
Same, the game was dead to me even before I actually watched the trailer or got a chance to try it out. Kernel level anti cheat and/or TPM 2.0 are deal breakers no matter what.
- Comment on What else can we do with sugar (sucrose)? 1 week ago:
To say nothing about water usage, which is probably an unsolvable problem.
- Comment on At least one of the 7 letters has still some relevante to my life. 1 week ago:
Jupyter notebook isn’t a language, it’s a tool for running interactive sessions, in principle with any language. I’m fairly certain people run Julia in Jupyter Notebooks.
As for the advantages of Julia versus Python, arrays are native types, so they interface better across the entire language. It’s also shockingly fast in comparison, it compiles the code at runtime, so the longer the program runs, the faster it is.
If there is a use-case for R that Julia or Python can’t do, I haven’t seen it. I personally don’t see the point of writing code in R when the Python and Julia are more broadly useful to learn.

That AI logo though 🤮
- Comment on An open source repairable printer. 2 weeks ago:
If you lean on any proprietary component, any printing company is going to intentionally make you obsolete. For them, it’s a no-brainer.

Sir, this community is called “lemmyshitposts”
- Comment on The Linux kernel is just a program 3 weeks ago:
That was my reaction as well. It’s a fun headline, but a kernel is not “just a program”. To try to assert it’s like a normal program forces you to question your definition of a program. If I hold a voltimeter and switch between hot and cold wires, am I a program now?
- Comment on If God had wanted us to have nearly unlimited clean energy, He would have placed a fusion reactor into the sky. 3 weeks ago:
Ahkshually, those tend to boils salt…which is later used to boil water.
- Comment on Recreating uncensored Epstein PDFs from raw encoded attachments 3 weeks ago:
Sound alike your first task is to list out all the meanings of colon and figure out which one of them looks like wheels when turned sideways.
- Comment on Recreating uncensored Epstein PDFs from raw encoded attachments 3 weeks ago:
There’s an iOS game about the history of fonts you might enjoy. Struggling to find it at the moment, but you play a colon navigating through time, solving various puzzles.
- Comment on There should be a 'Political Showerthoughts': so there's a place for such thoughts 3 weeks ago:
Would absolutely love to see political nonsense off this sub. If there’s a new sub for it, whatever, I definitely wouldn’t subscribe.
- Comment on Overwatch 2 Is Just 'Overwatch' Again And Five New Heroes Arrive Next Week 3 weeks ago:
There used to be an r/EmreMains when the name first appeared in lore. That must have been almost 5 years ago, and now they’ve finally released the hero. I don’t know what they expected, but I’d figure that almost everyone who was there previously has moved on, I certainly have.
- Comment on Overwatch 2 Is Just 'Overwatch' Again And Five New Heroes Arrive Next Week 3 weeks ago:
But not Global Offensive.
- Comment on Work smarter, not harder 3 weeks ago:
Use a newer company, say you worked at Theranos or FTX.
- Comment on VS Code for Linux may be secretly hoarding trashed files 3 weeks ago:
My favorite fun fact about VSCode is it stores all its cache files in
$XDG_CONFIG_HOME. - Comment on Distraction 3 weeks ago:
NGL I completely forgot that happened for the past week. I can’t believe he’s still in custody and nothing’s happened lately.
- Comment on Claude Code is suddenly everywhere inside Microsoft 3 weeks ago:
If there’s any company that will survive the bubble, it’s Anthropic. They’re the only company with a product, a business model, and customers that see long-term value in it.
- Comment on xkcd #3202: Groundhog Day Meaning 3 weeks ago:
It’s a good holiday because it has the responsibility to not have a facade. What even is Christmas? A solstace celebration? A celebration of the natural forest? The birthday of someone who was probably born early fall? An excuse to give children gifts? Idk anymore man.
- Comment on If Bill Gates get involved in a scandal, is it now called a Billgate? 3 weeks ago:
The problem isn’t the -gate suffix, it’s that we’ve had a once-in-a-decade scandal each month for the last 10 years.
