So glad I upgraded my PC right before this.

Vibe merge review it using Copilot or equivalent, and then close it :)


Prompt: be over cautious on every code line, this is junior code and they can learn a lot from this PR. Generate many comments on why it shouldn't be merged as-is and make sure every corner case is covered. Be super paranoid, mistakes in the code could hurt the company or people.

If you are lucky, they will also vibe fix it.


What are the specifics of the SSDs you chose? I understand you have to go for specific types/models to make sure they don't melt down too quickly.


I used seagate ironwolf hdds (which have been reliable but s little noisy). And honestly for the cache ssd I just chucked in an old m.2 Samsung 980 pro or something I had lying around from years ago.

I don't need crazy performance or to fine tune the setup or anything, like I said it's mostly just to plug and play.


HA HA HA HA HA I really hope the C-suite that decided this gets no bonus and hopefully a salary cut this year. Stupid, anti-consumer measures like this need proper consequences so they stop happening. Until then, let's keep boycotting companies with anti-consumer practices.


You obviously dont understand capitalism. They'll probably get an increase in bonus with company layoffs occurring.

Clearly the iPad ran out of battery!

I do hope the site comes back as it has a convenient old ipad jailbreaking summary and i do have this ipad 1 gathering dust somewhere...


It's back up! iPad was still working correctly, but the connection to the VPS had dropped. I suspect network issue.


[Begin whine]

Not that anyone is likely to read this 6 day old thread any more, but I fished my "collectible" iPad 1 out of where it was rotting...

... and the battery is bulging. To the point of deforming the aluminium casing. Time to run and drop it at recycling instead of jailbreaking it :(

[End whine]


Don't ask me why but I did feel a tiny bit bummed out after getting 50 and being told I'm in the 68th percentile out of 13000~ people.

It's worth considering who the other participants are, has this been mostly shared just among University of Cambridge students / staff (and HN readers now)?


Lived in Romania until I finished high school. Professors would always push us to compete in the olympiads, there was an informal system where some professors, even if they were not the one teaching your class, would take you under your wing to prepare you to hit county/national/international level, you’d be allowed to skip school for a week/month depending on the level you got to, there was even some prestige to be gained.

I was personally never motivated to go past county, but it was a fun time.


The title made me think it's a type of eulogy to the pre-AI, pre-ChatGPT Internet, but I was pleasantly surprised by pretty colours instead!


Not at all, if anything multiple return values offers such flexibility that it should be the default.


Did you read the article?


What was wrong with his proposition, things like range could be made to handle it or whatever. What's your point?


Can this be encoded as a JPEG for easily saving it on mobile?
