You’d be surprised

Can’t wait for agentic Claude Code to delete its own weights on all instances at some point

I keep reading this but I never found the source. Is this actually true?

I imagine after it expires it will trigger some flag somewhere and will never work again.

In other countries you’re required to bring a doctor’s note because then you’d get paid time off without spending your “vacation” PTO.

I once tried steeping (black) tea in a friend’s drip coffee maker. That shit was the strongest, most flavorful tea I’ve ever tried. 9/10 would recommend

I think you should take a more constructivist approach - what we have now, rather than what we might have in the future. Currently we have a network of like 20 major servers, mostly federated with each other. If one of those servers becomes insanely popular and overrun with bots and garbage, the rest will simply defederate from it. From the perspective of users on those other servers, they’ve only lost 5% of the network they liked. From the perspective of users who were on the popular server before it went to shit, they now have to move servers but still have 95% of the old network as they remember it.

Do users all move to the new instance?

What incentive is there for them to move? By the very nature of hype explosions, they are exponential, and as such most users will have joined when it was already quite popular. They won’t remember the “good old days” of their server being federated, so for them it’s fine to be isolated on a garbage server, at least initially. I suspect if something like this were to happen, most other servers will also limit signups for some time, to keep the spirit of the network alive and growing organically.

If you’re talking about the OP image, it’s actually inefficient as fuck. The houses depicted there house the same number of people as one or maybe two apartment blocks. And those apartment blocks can then have a bunch of greenery between them.

Oh how the turntables

Printing on Linux used to be a massive pain because CUPS, until I learned that I can just yeet PDFs at network printers with nc.

I can’t fathom Windows printing being worse than CUPS somehow. But then again I’m pretty sure last time I printed anything on Windows it was via a parallel port.

That’s fucked up, thanks for letting me know! I was under the impression it was mostly trafficked underpaid immigrants breaking their backs.

I guess because CoMaps/Organic Maps are “offline-first” maps, and transitous requires you to be online.

There’s actually a ticket on CoMaps about this: https://codeberg.org/comaps/comaps/issues/2483

They are considering making a proof of concept that works online, and then putting in some more work to make it work offline too.

You are already in the exact same timeline, there still is a significant amount of child laborers in US agriculture and literally no legal age limit provided parents sign a waiver. US is and has always been a fucked up country

It uses Transitous, the same routing engine as Bimba. So yes, it should work fine if you’re on Linux.

As for the actual question at hand: don’t rely too much on OSRM. It’s just the “default” router, and there are many others out there. E.g. both Valhalla and Graphhopper suggest the shorter route in pedestrian mode.

Also, will OSM - OrganicMaps\CoMaps will introduce any time soon ability for public transport routes?

I don’t think there are any current plans for it. It’s actually really difficult to get right.

OsmAnd kinda cheats and doesn’t have any scheduling information, basically it assumes that the transit comes often enough that it doesn’t matter, which is fine in bigger cities. However, if your bus comes only twice a day it will be an issue.

There’s an open-source app for public transit called Bimba. It is a bit janky, and it requires you to be online for proper routing, but it does work for many cities. It still needs a lot of polishing before I’d consider it done, and actually I’d love for it to just become an OsmAnd plugin at some point.

I’ve managed to locate the exact place from the screenshot (there was enough identifying info for an overpass query so you might want to consider improving opsec if it’s a privacy concern).

I think the reason why walking prefers to go the long way around is because the path parallel to the secondary road is marked as highway=footway, and walking algorithms generally prefer those over other types of paths. It is assumed that highway=footway is tended to and therefore more pleasant/fast to walk on compared to a general highway=path, which is just something that is maintained naturally because of people walking there. I guess surface=mud on the shorter path might also play into it - routers will generally penalize worse surfaces and instead suggest you to walk on firmer ones.

If that shorter path is actually “official” in some way and is pleasant to walk on, consider changing it to highway=footway, otherwise the router is probably behaving correctly by not sending you down a muddy shortcut.

Being a lazy piece of shit who steals labor from workers is not mutually exclusive with being miserable. In fact I suspect they are interlinked, a lot of rich assholes also seem to be in constant mental anguish even though they don’t do anything useful. This is not to provoke pity for them, rather to clarify that I think a certain amount of labor is required for a person to live a complete and happy life.

They do, definitionally. They perform a service in exchange for a wage. This service is of net-negative use value for the society, but it’s a service nonetheless. Otherwise we could be arguing that people in advertisement or gambling industries don’t perform any labor.

I think the depiction of the landlord is not exactly correct.

Landlords are usually miserable, constantly worried about missing payments and mortgages and property values and blaming apartment dilapidation on the tenant. I’m yet to interact with a happy and fully mentally stable landlord.

When waiting on such long intersections I often wish to change the light timings and/or dig up the entire god damn stroad and/or throw oil & car execs in prison. But sure, a pedestrian bridge would be an improvement too I suppose.
