All true, but regarding #1: the size of the go.sum and all the indirect deps in the go.mod are also telling me a lot already :)

Is vendoring really going to help? Vendor or not, you need to review your deps' code.

Go's go.sum should already protect against malicious changes in upstream packages, no?

I must be an old, boring fart, but when I see blog posts with emoji spam in every single paragraph, I feel pandered to. It reads like an MLM post on Facebook about being your own GirlBoss.

I agree with your sentiment. It's sad that your (or my) website can't respond with a X-This-Website-is-not-AI-Garbage header to indicate that "Hey user, you can actually just open this website and read it and get the infos you need without an AI assistant.".

I'm pretty sure Firefox's preflight request will also not load ads and so could be seen as a bad scraper.

Awesome! Now half the sites on the web contain a tiny drop of information, buried under paragraphs and paragraphs of GPT-generated text, and now my browser uses the same LLM to reverse engineer the original information. What could possibly go wrong the LLMs talk to other LLMs and summarize, bloat, summarize and then bloat and then finally summarize every bit of information for us.

Do we actually still make websites for humans, or is it all just AIs and SEO?

Yeah, there is no law or rule that UTC offsets need to be full hours.

If the EU abolishes DST in its member states, there won't be any patches or updates necessary to software out there. The timezone database will simply be updated to reflect the change of policy and bam, once your system has the new tzdata, restart your apps and they will automatically understand it. This is not like the Y2K bug that needed actual patches.

Well, according to Trump, there is no friendship between nations, only deals and leverage. Well, orange man, what do you have to offer for our eggs? Maybe lift your stupid tariffs again?

Ah yes, because the war on drugs worked soooooo well in the US.

Wait, the news said last night that the passus about shunning US arms industry was ultimately removed from the EU resolution's last draft. Now here's another article claiming it's in, plus even extended to include Israel? None of the news sources I found actually link to the freakin' EU papers they are all talking about.

The white paper ( https://defence-industry-space.ec.europa.eu/document/download/30b50d2c-49aa-4250-9ca6-27a0347cf009_en?filename=White%20Paper.pdf ) only contains "Israel" in one place and it's not about where to spend money.

Can someone guide me to the actual, final, real, true statement the EU made?

Joar ich frag mich auch schon wofür man in Deutschland noch Ramstein dulden sollte (das frage ich mich bei Rammstein auch, aber ein Schritt nach dem anderen). Die Amerikaner sehen Russland ja offenbar nicht mehr als Gefahr, warum sollten sie also noch Truppen auf dem europäischen Kontinent stationieren?

great tip 😎

 

I tried to improve my Norwegian by reading like language learner beginner books, but they are soooooooo boring and I just cannot bring up any interest in the umpteenth "This is Maria, she is a student and moved to Oslo for her studies" story.

My intro to Norwegian was "Norsemen" on Netflix and then Fleksnes Fataliteter, but Norsemen seems to only be available in Norwegian on nrk.no, which seems impossible to use without a fødselsnummer.

I also tried to find YouTubers that speak Norwegian, but most Skandinavians seem to prefer talking in English 😬

Are there any free streaming sites where I can legally watch Norwegian TV shows or movies?
