Any severe side effects so far? Have you set PATH up somehow so it is effect only on interactive prompt, and not in the launched processes? Because I cannot imagine much 3rd party scripts working with random flags added to core tools

Yes, my main confusion is — what did the Jacquard loom do that all the prior art did not. I'm looking at it, at many much older devices, and am led to conclude it is only because of popularity.

Here is a 1746 machine loom that used perforated tape, half a century before Jacquard: https://www.arts-et-metiers.net/musee/metier-tisser-les-etof... Nor is it first such device. Here is the nice image of barrel with

By these criteria printing press was much more programmable than the loom. The Babbage's machine was not notable for being "symbolically programmable", it was a machine capable of universal computation. That is huge step beyo

Punchcards are also mechanically configured, not symbolically programmed. If you see huge semantical difference between a card with holes and a cylinder with pins or a cam with groves, please explain that difference. Or is the "arbitra

I'm baffled by the persistent notion that Jacquard's loom is somehow related to computing. There is no computation. It is not remotely the first punchcard-driven loom. Extremely complex musical and animated automata existed long p

I have no idea where on those slides it says non-volatile storage should not be used for non-permanent, temporary data. It does note main differences (speed, latency, permanence). How does that limit what data disk can be used for? What wou

But how about not scheduling swapped out processes if there currently is no free ram for their current RSS? of course kernel cannot know that a new process will balloon to eat all RAM, but once it has done so, is there a way to let it run t

Is there a way to make linux kernel schedule in a "batch friendly way"? Say I do "make -j" and get 200 gcc processes diong jobserver LTO link with 2GB RSS each. In my head, optimal way through such mess is get as many pr

what I too dismissively (sorrry) meant was: doing a videocall to a contact that is actually a bot and saves the video/screenshots of video, will not leave much of a trace either, and will look completely non-suspicious.

Isn't porting patches the equivalent of a halting problem? Or did you have something specific in mind?

So your point is distros provide dedicated tooling for simple recompiling of kernel (that is different from other distro packages), but do not have dedicated tooling for systemd? Fair point, but does not address the kernel being orders of m

Is there a chart of music that people like, or at least a good approximation of what people like? Probably last.fm was something like that at the very beginning. Are not music charts a list of songs people are expected to like, or else?

pole-vaulting records improve incrementally too. and there is finite distance left to the moon. without deep understanding and experience and numbers to back up the opinion, any progress seems about to reach arbitrary goals.
