I've owned this car for 4 years but it's been in storage all this time because it needed some major TLC.
Today is the first time I've driven it!
My 2001 Renault Clio v6.
It came from the factory with a 3 litre v6 where you'd normally find rear seats!
Thank you JavaScript!

Maintainers don't want their commercial users to PR bug fixes?

It also says that "accepting donations exceeding costs" could make you liable. Costs can include your salary.

If a company uses your OSS library in a product, they are entirely responsible for all parts of the product, including components from third parties:

When CRA applies to OSS Often does not apply to OSS. Don't need to worry about CRA if you are only: 1. Contributing to others' Open Source Software (OSS) projects 2. Publishing OSS code in your own repository & not trying to monetize it 3. Providing web sites/services not part of remote data processing of a product
In the video you linked it says it doesn't apply if you aren't monetizing which suggests it doesn't impact the majority of open source maintainers

My mum did a touch typing course back when there were only typewriters and she is 65.
Oh wow, do you still get stuff from the old places?
We've moved so much I just use my parents address for most things and they open everything and send it over WhatsApp 😆
My sister changed the registered address of her car on the move date but missed a ticket that was posted before then and it arrived after she'd left.
Seems like the only way you can avoid all the pitfalls is to pay for mail redirection for a few months too!
It is generally much less efficient and results in more heat. Heat can reduce the lifetime of the battery.

A small ticket went unpaid for over 18 months and by the time they caught up with her the bill was over 3k. She had to pay on her credit card or they were going to tow the car!
Looks like a decent bag too!

Like there's no obvious way to tell it when to ignore a specific point so it'll go on and repeat that for every subsequent commit 🤦🏻♂️

My understanding was that for Cloudflare in Rust, it just gets built to wasm and runs in the JavaScript runtime anyway?
I have an EU resident permit and I'm married to a European and that should mean I no longer get Schengen stamps but many of the border guards don't know the rules.
I'm trying to keep the remaining pages in my passport so I've printed out the relevant pages from their own internal guidebook 😂

As soon as the app sees you in the UK it asks for ID? What stops you from using photoshopped id?
What happens if you leave the UK?
They don't need to read our minds. All the context they need already exists in text somewhere, whether that's git/GitHub/slack etc. LLMs are just not good enough yet and can't hold enough context to come close to what humans can do.
If it's not easier to use them in years to come they've failed
But to be "left behind" the amount to learn would need to grow to a point where it becomes increasingly difficult to catch up.
Are you expecting that in a year or two it will be more complicated to explain to an LLM what you'd like it to do Vs now?
Are we not expecting LLMs to improve and not require extra steps/approaches/work to get them coding effectively?
I just find the entire "get left behind" narrative ignores all progress and suggests they've already peaked or these problems won't get solved 🤷♂️
