You're complaining about HP Inc's business practices. Hewlett Packard Enterprise and HP Inc. parted ways 11 years ago. (Hint: the latter's name is a pun on "ink").

If you install the official Claude Code add-in to VS Code, you get the inline diffs too.

Yeah, I use both GitHub Copilot and Claude Code for the same reason: to control token budgets.

It's not premature. It's either unneeded, or "they should have done this a few years ago". And we won't know which for several years.

Remember, it's not only stuff that can be broken instantly. Coded messages can be recorded, and then broken when it's interesting/convenient.

The motive would be to insult the Russians.

Not only common, but necessary.

Planets don't just spring into being. They form through gradual accretion, and that is not constrained to just one big thing eating all the other little things. Its a bunch of little things all eating littler things, getting bigger in the process, and then colliding with each other as their orbital mechanics change from the changes in mass and angular velocity/momentum.

Most models have things forming in the outer solar system and falling in, as they get heavier and slower-- or things in the inner system getting ejected out after such a shift, plunging toward the sun, picking up a lot of speed, then getting slingshotted out.

This is why there are so many rogue planets floating around in deep space. (On the average of 20 per star, in the milky way galaxy.)

Until things settle down, early solar systems are very chaotic places with lots of collisions, things falling into and out of orbits, getting shot out of the system, all the while getting bombarded by highly unstable and variable/unpredictable solar radiation effects from the host star being turbulent.

Interesting, that explains a lot. Until now, I thought I might want to try Cursor, but I already have VS Code with Claude and GitHub Copilot, so why bother!

Can you name a single example?

I don't believe there is an alternative to growing vs. dying. Whether it's a living thing, or a civilization, those are the only two choices.

Now, it's true that in living things and in civilizations, at a small scale there is both growing and dying happening all the time, within the same structure. Cells are born, live, and die. Cities grow, and then die, within a thriving nation. But the larger arc is always one direction or the other.

Who's afraid, middle cow and?

My only hope is that it is at night, some of these things might be interesting if it happens right after it gets dark. Tequila and popcorn FTW.

I haven't seen that in years. The best you get these days is when you run Firefox an an update magically happened there's a tab that opens to let you know what's new.

I didn't write any bug reports, mainly because by the time I get to it someone else already has. And they still get treated like shit and marked WONTFIX. So yeah I may come across as a grump cunt at times, but it's not me Mozilla team is hating on.

The problem with morals is that they vary between people. Privacy just isn't a concern for many, myself included. Oh noes Google knows I am posting on Slashdot right now, whooop de do. It didn't actually affect me beyond targeted (blocked) advertising. On the flip side Firefox's UI hanging affects me. Pointlessly screwing with keyboard shortcuts that have been in place for 20 years affects me.

Morals don't me use my computer. Recalibrating the compass doesn't change anything.

Memory doesn't just leak from the act of having tabs, it leaks from specifics of what is being done in the tabs. Firefox sucks at for example releasing memory from expired DOM objects. You want to run a comparison, open up 1 tab, just one in Firefox and one in Chrome and go to reddit. Start scrolling. Scroll for a while the same distance on both and see which one is using what memory. I'll wager that one tab is using an order of magnitude more than your 372.

Correct. No nation, no city, no organism, grows forever. It grows until it starts to die. This is all part of life. But we don't have to hasten the process.

Elder care is just one problem for a shrinking population. Just look at America's small towns, to see what shrinking population looks like. They are places people *used to* want to be.

Your definition of "invasion" doesn't jibe with history. National borders are a new phenomenon, in terms of history. Until about 1900 or so, people moved to another country by...moving there. There was no CBP to determine who was, and was not, allowed in. In any numbers. If the newcomers behaved themselves and abided by local laws, there was no problem. If they came in and started hurting or killing people, *that* was an invasion.

You used the analogy of someone moving into your house and rearranging the furniture. That's not what this is. This is people who don't look like you, moving into your *neighborhood*. It's true, people who are racist of xenophobic, don't like neighbors who are from a different place or are a different color. But that's not the same as coming into your house and rearranging things. If they move into your neighborhood and abide by HOA rules, what's the problem?

Yes, immigration changes a people. This is a good thing. We in America are a melting pot of nations. That fact has made us stronger, not weaker.

Your parasite also does not fit. The truth about immigrants, is that they are a net positive for our nation, not a net negative. They start far more new businesses per capita, than native-born people. They bring with them an acceptance of people who are not like them, making us all better.

Trump and his followers have forgotten that we are all...human.

Just use apt.
