Butyric acid in case anyone is wondering. Literally a product of digestion, so you taste it when you throw up:

Highly-fermentable fiber residues, such as those from resistant starch, oat bran, pectin, and guar are transformed by colonic bacteria into short-chain fatty acids (SCFA) including butyrate, producing more SCFA than less fermentable fibers such as celluloses.[13][21] One study found that resistant starch consistently produces more butyrate than other types of dietary fiber.[22] The production of SCFA from fibers in ruminant animals such as cattle is responsible for the butyrate content of milk and butter.[23]

They literally put vomit flavor in their chocolate!!!

I could be wrong, but it's my understanding that, under the terms of EU membership, this would require Canada to adopt proportional representation.

Of course today, it looks like a long shot, but the more this gets talked about, the more likely it could happen. So keep up the conversation, and maybe it will someday!

It's a publicly traded company, isn't it? Most likely there is some investor in the CEO's ear asking him to push this down on all staff... so they come up with bright ideas like putting silly "requirements" like this in their job descriptions as well. And in any case, AI investors are so desperate these days, chances are that they're doing everything they can to create general LLM FOMO in a similarly desperate push to increase adoption.

That's what I'm guessing at least. Even to me it sounds a little like a conspiracy theory, but then again these people have a lot of influence.

It means that the parent company has major investors in the LLM space.

The whole notion of CSDs is a blueprint example of what happens when UI designers try to think things through too hard. They come up with grand solutions to trivial problems that are so poorly thought through that they create even bigger problems.

Realistically, nobody is going rewrite their entire application just because of what a tiny cabal of Gnome developers think. Just read this post that was linked elsewhere in this thread. At the end, Tobias is basically arguing that people should go out there and harass the developers of all Linux desktop applications (including the entire KDE project!) to follow through on this ridiculous idea:

Thus, our goal is for as many apps as possible to have the following properites [sic]

• No title bar
• Native-looking close/maximize/minimize icons
• Respects the setting for showing/hiding minimize and maximize
• Respects the setting for buttons to be on the left/right side of the window

Which apps are affected? Basically, all applications not using GTK3 (and a few that do use GTK3). That includes GTK2, Qt, and Electron apps.

If that alone doesn't alert people of how out-of-touch the Gnome developers are, then I don't know what would.

I remember being taught how to use maps in elementary school. Now I can’t help but wonder if that’s taught at all these days.

For what it's worth, I was never taught how to use a paper map but always found it easy to do.

But I definitely agree about over-reliance on GPS is pretty sad. I love the fact that I can just try a different route and see where it takes me. Sure, I sometimes waste 20 minutes doing the opposite direction of what I want, but I also discover new things along the way which is really nice.

I know what you mean, just beware: in lots of cases it’s not as universal (as in distro-independent) as some still think it is.

This is especially true when we start talking about BSDs and other non-GNU platforms.

Interesting. Were you using a Jenkinsfile? I'm not sure I completely understand your use case, but using a Jenkinsfile would mean that your entire pipeline would be defined in a file in source control, so you could roll it back if you made a change that didn't work quite right. Seems to be what your looking for if I'm understanding what you're looking for.

I looked at it for 5 seconds. The UI looked pretty hideous. Even new reddit looks better than it.

I've found the edit/test/debug loop in Jenkins to be much faster than Github Actions. It was quite a refreshing change when I made that transition.

The best way I found to do this is by commenting out the portions of the build that take the longest.

Which is stupid, but that's what you get with Microsoft products.

(I get that there may be ways to test this locally, but I found this method to be the easiest.)

I thought they renamed their entire product line to "Copilot" by now, didn't they?

Uninstalling it at this point would leave absolutely nothing left!
