I have all of these settings off, but it’s still summarizing my emails and offering to add it to my calendar because there are no conflicting events.

Send them a pride flag with the return address of the preacher.

I understand how frustrating it is. You can tell yourself “mistakes happen”, but that doesn’t seem to make you feel any better.

Imagine instead if your partner had put in months of work to make you happy and then made a single mistake. Would you be angry at them, or would you still love them for the effort they put in and forgive them?

Don’t be too hard on yourself. There are solutions, but it will take time to think of them – even the really obvious ones. Take some time off from concentrating on the problem (even sleep on it if you have the time), consciously relax, then start looking for what can be changed. Strong emotions make it really difficult to think logically.

You may be surprised at how much most people care. Many people will empathise with your position (some who’ve done the same thing) and do everything in their power to help you fix it.

In the end it doesn’t really matter if nothing works out. You’ll still be disappointed, but there will be other opportunities in the future.

In this case the limit was entirely arbitrary.

The programmers were told to pick a limit and they liked 256. There are issues with having a large number of people in a group, but it wasn’t a hardware limit for this particular case.

git-fire

“git-fire is a Git plugin that helps in the event of an emergency by switching to the repository’s root directory, adding all current files, committing, and pushing commits and all stashes to a new branch (to prevent merge conflicts).”

LLMs are great at language problems. If you’re learning the syntax of a new programming language or you’ve forgotten the syntax for a specific feature, LLMs will give you exactly what you want.

I frequently use AI/LLMs when switching languages to quickly get me back up to speed. They’re also adequate at giving you a starting point, or a basic understanding of a library or feature.

The major downfall is if you ask for a solution to a problem. Chances are, it will give you a solution. Often it won’t work at all.
The real problem is when it does work.

I was looking for a datatype that could act as a cache (forget the oldest item when adding a new one). I got a beautifully written class with 2 fields and 3 methods.
After poking at the AI for a while, it realized that half the code wasn’t actually needed. After much more prodding, it finally informed me that there was actually an existing datatype (LinkedHashMap) that would do exactly what I wanted.

Be aware that AI/LLMs will rarely give you the best solution, and often give you really bad solutions even when an elegant one exists. Use them to learn if you want, but don’t trust them.

I think a more effective idea would be to remove all profits (and maybe executive income and bonuses) from the company for a fixed period of time instead of a fixed fine that’s less than the profit from doing the illegal activity.

Investors won’t be happy if they’re getting nothing, so they’ll be more careful with their investments, and no-one will have to pay to house thousands of unwitting investors in prisons.

Just remember to turn steam play on for all titles in Steam -> Settings -> Compatibility.

As others have said, Mint is a great starting option. It looks familiar when coming from Windows, and almost everything works without having to touch a terminal.

AAA games with anti-cheat may not work, but just about everything else will. Check Proton DB for each game’s compatibility.
You can add non-Steam games to Steam to take advantage of Proton. Lutris can also work for some Windows games.

If you want to try Linux distributions to see what they’re like before committing, VirtualBox or other virtual machine programs can give you a risk-free preview.

Another option is a live preview. Install Linux Mint on a USB using Rufus or a similar program, then boot your computer from the USB. So long as you don’t access your computer’s hard drive (under devices on the left of the file manager) or run the installer, no changes should be made from your computer. You can simply reboot and remove the USB to go back to your usual OS.

If you are going to dual-boot, install Windows first. Windows has a habit of overriding or deleting Linux if it’s installed second. If you just want to shrink your Windows partition to allow room for Linux, shrink it from Windows. Linux can move “unmovable” Windows files resulting in Windows not booting.

Always have a backup of everything you are not prepared to lose before you play with installing operating systems (and make sure it’s disconnected from that computer). Data loss from software issues is rare, but mistakes are difficult (sometimes impossible) to reverse, particularly as a beginner.

Run this software and connect the output to the electric car motor. You can now have the full experience of any engine you want while burning no fuel.

0 is the empty set.

1 is the set containing only 0.

2 is the set containing only 1 and 0.

It took me 3 years from when I first started dual booting to when I launched Windows for the last time.

Take your time, move as slowly as you want, and always leave a way back. Eventually you might notice that you’re feeling more comfortable with Linux than Windows, and if you’re lucky, you might not even notice when you’ve stopped using Windows.

I expect he’ll ask Grok and believe the answer.

It was looking pretty real when Ronald Reagan got in.

If you’re trying to calculate it, then it’s quite difficult.

If you just want to use it in a computer program, most programming languages have it as a constant you can request. You get to pick whether you want single or double precision, but both are atomic (a single instruction) on modern computers.

It sounds like your driving instructor wasn’t any good. A good driving instructor will never put you in a situation that you are not ready for. They never should have allowed you to get a licence until you felt safe.

If you feel like you’re not in control then you’re right - this accident is proof of that. If you want to try driving again, I highly recommend getting a good driving instructor first - one who won’t put you in situations you can’t handle.

If you can get everywhere you need to without driving, then you can save yourself a lot of money by not paying for a car, insurance, or registration.

You always have the right to say no, and you can always say “not now”. Maybe wait a few more weeks before making a decision.

It was a rubber coated metal bullet fired at close range.

You do not shoot someone unless you want them dead.

The government doesn’t care. They won’t look at any proof even if you could provide it.

Due process is how you prove who you are. They’re not doing any due process.

Peace of mind (knowing that your partner is ok) can significantly reduce stress and increase quality of life.

Even if the device can’t give an alert soon enough to do anything, just looking and seeing that they are ok this morning can bring a sense of peace, and that’s worth something.
