I've been using gptel for a couple of days and it is absolutely bonkers. It is Magit-level of thought out. However I enjoyed relying less on the transient menu, and rather focus on writing my own wrapper functions via gptel-request.

Honestly I've been kind of an AI skeptic until very recently, and gptel in addition to this article were what pushed me over.

That is the first time I've seen South Africa listed separately from Africa

That was quite light in substance. Since it's titled a "success story" I was hoping to find a deeper dive into challenges they faced - especially with Alpine, which isn't that trivial to use at scale, not even mentioning with Junior developers.

This article seems like writing for the sake of writing, or rather padding the blog page on your personal site

Damn that would be so cool

Damn that's cool, then maybe I should take a second look at Wordpress

Yeah actually writing Wordpress themes was easier than I thought. But I wrote them for the old editor, not Gutenberg – I opted for ClassicPress instead which was quite a banger in the effort-to-outcome equation

I feel like Python is coming to its senses in the recent years, with releases focusing on typing constructs and the match statement. I think they're on the path to be a great statically typed language, don't you think?

How did you manage to convince friends and (especially) family to actually use Matrix? Quite impressive!

Yeah idk what went into her in this video. It only seems to be half a joke, which is terrible. The rest of her content is amazing so I'm quite confused

Your stance is great. I'm very glad you're taking the liberty to remove posts, moderated spaces who are strict about what kinda content is allowed are just more pleasant. Hackernews, lobste.rs and me_irl come to mind. Unsure why the poster in the picture reacted so dramatically lol

Can someone take a picture of what the last year's emoji look like? XD

Love it! I did feel uncomfortable with 2010s-Facebook-style excessive public sharing. Most of my friends, with me included, abuse the close friends Instagram feature and I'm all for it. I know a couple of people who deleted their old Facebook accounts because digital footprint was too frightening – particularly, the shit they posted during their teens in private Facebook groups that they have long left.

All of this is obviously not related whatsoever to data harvesting; this fight is against individual stalkers rather than corporate ones. But it's a blessed one non the less; stalking shouldn't really be a thing.
