It looks like standalone Proton Mail might still be available:

https://proton.me/mail/pricing

Oh didn't know that. And at $10/month. So the same price as in this advertisement pretending to be a blog post.

.. umm no

Proton $10 per month Purely $10 per year.

You might like Typometer. I believe it was created by a JetBrains developer to improve input latency in IDEA.

> Typometer works by generating OS input events and using screen capture to measure the delay between a keystroke and a corresponding screen update. Hence, the measurement encompasses all the constituents of processing latency (i. e. OS queue, VM, editor, GPU pipeline, buffering, window manager and possible V-Sync).

I don't know about VS Code's dev containers extension but the SSH extension's README says:

> Using Remote-SSH opens a connection between your local machine and the remote. Only use Remote-SSH to connect to secure remote machines that you trust and that are owned by a party whom you trust. A compromised remote could use the VS Code Remote connection to execute code on your local machine.

If you're worried about extensions there's also:

> When a user installs an extension, VS Code automatically installs it to the correct location based on its kind. If an extension can run as either kind, VS Code will attempt to choose the optimal one for the situation;

> That being said, $10/mo is also expensive.

Back in the beta they planned on launching with a $20-$30/month unlimited plan and they didn't think they'd be able to bring the price down. That was a little too expensive for me so I moved on. I like what they're doing and I'd pay $10/month but I just don't have a use for it anymore.

Removed. I see the scrolling happens for me in Chromium so that's not PCWorld's doing.

Your second screenshot is scrolled up to show the top header bar that mentions Bing. The default page load scrolls down just enough to hide it (intentionally or otherwise).

It's not doing it for me in Firefox but it is in Chromium.

Sure. It also does it in Edge which is what all the articles are about, since Windows+Edge is the primary reason people end up using Bing by default.

The page automatically scrolls, 9to5google's article has a gif of it in action. https://9to5google.com/2025/01/06/bing-trick-users-google/

> the scrolling probably isn't intentional

What makes you believe that? It's pretty clearly intentional even if it only applies to Chromium browsers.

I was referring to PCWorld there. I've rephrased it. Hopefully it's a little clearer now.

Ah, thanks for the clarification

Quite a bit of discussion on Sunday:

It's frustrating.

Cody's autocomplete used to work really well for me. Then they switched to DeepSeek. Now I regularly get suggestions that are irrelevant, incomplete, and contain syntax errors.

I'm not sure what it's like these days but I had a similar experience with Copilot a while back.

I wonder if good autocomplete is just too expensive.

Hi there, Cody contributor here—sorry to hear you had a bad experience! In our evals, our DeepSeek variant outperformed previous models and other alternatives. If it's working worse for you know, would be open to sending us some examples/screenshots of poor completions examples? We'd like to incorporate these into our eval set so we can capture a more representative distribution of codebases and how Cody performs!

I can do that. What's the best way to get them to y'all?

Ping community@sourcegraph.com and I'll get a thread going. :)

They're only really comparable if you want an 8 GB Pi 5.

Right now I could buy a 4 GB Pi 5 setup (Pi 5, case, power supply) from CanaKit for $82. $97 if I didn't have an SD card to spare.

I don't buy mini PCs from random companies. The last N100 I bought was the NucBox G2 for $139:

If I didn't need the second ethernet port I probably would've grabbed the NucBox G5 for $136:

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0CZRJL7JM

Cheapest G5 in Europe I could find was 180 EUR, but sold out. And on amazon.de it's 280 EUR.

GMKtec Mini PC N97 [1] is 160 EUR on amazon.de (with the 70 EURO voucher that is). Got mine with free shipping to Romania, as the purchase was over 50 EUR.

Also, the N97 has better performance than the N100, but the power consumption is higher. For me its a plus as it's more powerful than the usual N100 mini PC's while much smaller and fan noise is quite low (for now at least...). Not really intended for high workloads and 24/7 anyway. More like a backpack PC.

For me it shows as €233.82

There is a voucher button you can press.

Prices in the US dont show sales tax which is somewhere between 0 and ~10% (or a little higher).

Presumably your prices have VAT?

Oh yeah. I have no idea what's available there. Sorry!

GMKtec sells on AliExpress if you don't mind going that route:

https://www.aliexpress.us/item/3256806972422176.html

The price for those is now $200 and $170.

That's weird. The prices haven't changed for me. I wonder if it's because of "Exclusive Prime price."

It doesn't look like the AliExpress prices have changed if you don't mind going that route.

For comparison, here's how long it took in past years:

    2015 - 10:55
    2016 -  7:01
    2017 -  1:16
    2018 -  1:48
    2019 -  1:39
    2020 -  7:11
    2021 -  1:07
    2022 -  0:53
    2023 -  2:24

And this year's second place was 0:54.

Note that regarding the outliers, in 2015 and 2016 the puzzles weren't as widely known, and in 2020, AWS' load balancers crashed and the puzzle was unavailable to most people for 6 minutes, then solved in a few minutes. https://adventofcode.com/2020/leaderboard/day/1 -- postmortem: https://old.reddit.com/r/adventofcode/comments/k9lt09/postmo...
