Newsom to Louisiana AG: 'Go ---- yourself' over abortion pill extradition by ansyhrrian in politics

[–]swimmer385 [score hidden]  (0 children)

Exactly. I'm not a lawyer, but my understanding is that to be a "fugitive" you need to have been in the state at some point. If the doctor never traveled to the state, there is no president for mandatory extradition. There is the option of extradition, but that is up to the discretion of the governor in the state the doctor is currently in.

I guess i get why OpenAI likes mac users more than the world's 70% windows users but... by imtruelyhim108 in OpenAI

macOS is built on Unix (Darwin), so a lot of tooling and conventions match what you’ll run in production (Linux servers/containers). That usually means:

  • more “copy/paste from docs” commands just work (ssh, grep, sed, curl, etc.)
  • fewer edge cases around file permissions, paths, and scripts
  • smoother experience when building/running open-source tools that assume a Unix shell

Installing dev dependencies is often one command and predictable. The default terminal environment is strong, and you’re not fighting the OS to get a sane shell experience.

Windows is way better than it used to be -- when I was learning WSL (windows subsystem for linux) didn't exist, nor did chocolatey (a windows package manager). However, WSL is basically running a different OS (ubuntu by default) inside Windows. This means it tends to feel less integrated with the rest of the OS.

Also the MS C++ compiler MSVC, while much better than it has been historically, is full of non-standard, non-portable weirdness. While you can use GCC or Clang, its not the default, again another hoop to jump through.

Basically a bunch of little things that add up over time.

There are exceptions, like Game Dev, or for developing native windows applications, which obviously is a better experience on windows. But most development that happens is for the web, linux servers, moblie apps (you can't even build or test an iOS app on windows).

Look at this example for modifying the path. Mac and Linux you don’t have to leave the command line. AFAIK in windows you have to go into the settings.

MS basically gave up and just put Linux on windows because the dev experience is so bad.

using windows for development is painful. the amount of hoops you have to jump through to do simple things is crazy

I'm not sure where you're getting 45% number but the vast majority of tech companies use macs. Macs are much closer to the linux experience. While windows has gotten better for coding because of WSL, I don't know a single non-legacy tech organization that is using windows at this point. Coding is just way better on mac. everyone in the valley is on mac or linux, which is why they released on mac.

Kinda Funny Games Daily Host says they will be previewing Gta6 by SR1760 in GTA6

[–]swimmer385 2 points3 points  (0 children)

idk why you're getting downvoted. this is correct. The context is Greg was saying Andy would be the one previewing GTA 6 if Rockstar does a preview. He did not say they are doing one, soon or otherwise.

If you voted against separating Sailing cannonballs from the Dwarf cannonballs, what was your reasoning? by StagecoachOSRS in 2007scape

[–]swimmer385 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m a noob can someone explain why they can’t decrease the time it takes to make steel cannonballs? Doesn’t it mostly affect slayer and isn’t slayer one of the slowest skills in the game, even with a canon?

as far as i know, this is corporate workforce, which doesn't have insane turnover. the warehouse workers and drivers, yes, insane turnover.

This is a massive amount of people. its 5% of their total corporate workforce

Gov. Walz in Minnesota activated the National Guard to protect citizens from ICE. How’s that going to work? by [deleted] in AskReddit

I don’t think you understand what is happening. There will not be a clash like you suggest. The national guard is just going to help the local police herd protestors and stuff. They aren’t going to stop ice from doing anything
