I don't remember which anymore, but a bit over a year ago, I tried switching everything to Wayland, and had too many problems in my specific hardware setup, went back to x11 and some things just broke and some apps I couldn't use.

Exactly, if it's not something that can be isolated/determined to ONLY affecting the app itself, it shouldn't be done, and if you really really want to do it, there should be a big fat warning, but I really wouldn't..

While I agree that a simple fix this for me button is a great option for users, being a destructive fix it for me button is not. If you want to argue that it is a good thing since this particular piece of software, for the typical linux use

Thanks for the warning, that is brutal!

Yeah, unless you need to stay silent for detection reasons or warfare, my guess would be that in a fixed facility, it would be way cheaper and reliable to have a positive pressure or flow of air going outward. I've seen windows and bui

So today you would do it all in a programmable shader pipeline, create and update vertices according to some displacement from a 2d water simulation or just noise, and color the appropriately in another pass with the correct texture etc. As

Imagine spending a lot of time on learning Julia, then imagine you want to do web dev, then imagine your favorite language is Julia, and you don't want to use time on learning something else? So why not I guess. From reading the landin

Thanks for the answer! I've always been fascinated with intelligence and the brain, but most stuff in machine learning / AI just seems so disconnected from actually trying to understand intelligence or the brain on any level, and

Would you kindly care to explain how the field should change paradigm? Do you mean that " black boxing" the brain with input/output and hoping something will emerge is a non-productive endeavour, and that the neurophysiology,

If I remember correctly, and forgive me for missing some details, the last one states that we are most likely to experience warming until 2045/2050, no matter what we do. They then proceed to give some different scenarios based on thei

Asking since I want to build a ray tracer and voxel engine in nim as a side project at some point. But I really like the approach of high level safety and optional low level performance from both languages. I was considering Rust, but I don

I think it's interesting, because product/market fit is really important, and you have one camp of guys saying that programming language is almost irrelevant. But then it isn't always the case, because choosing the right lang

How is zig compared to nim, where you can also disable safety(even disabling the gc)? To me nim seems more "ergonomic", but they both try to hit the same problem space.

I have been eyeing the xr3 headset, it has a really good pixel density and arrangement, to the point it's unreal, but it's really expensive. But if you have enough money to burn, you can taste the future now.

Yeah, rewriting everything is almost never a good choice from a business value perspective. Usually, the most sensible thing to do, is to break the system up in components, and rewrite them slowly while keeping interop with the old system.

It was a case with Samsung, but I've had bad experiences before with other brands too like Lenovo. The only reason I've got my money back with the Lenovo case, was because the seller was so tired of lenovos responses, he just gave

I'm eternally grateful every time I can complain to the seller, and hold them liable for the product for at least 2 years here in Europe. I once tried getting in contact with a major manufacturer about a broken device, and they did abs

I'm pretty sure we would like to, but one battle at a time. It's not easy to mandate standards. We are trying to push back the greed, Margrethe Vestager for example, is doing a damn fine job of being annoying to the right people!

But everything is based on a hunch with a negative worldview as a lens to view the information with, that just how it feels when giving out these speculations. Politely understand, I'm not saying you are wrong, but I am saying it is wr

How do you know this is a negative influence? Element being made by the same people who made matrix, how much difference is there? Is it not possible to see the source code? Is it not possible to partake in the development process in the sa

I think the problem is that these methods and authors are heavily incentivized to make a name for themselves and a framework which can become a business somehow. There's a serious lack of scientific rigour in these areas, and from my e

Agreed, sounds like they are trying to say that two people in different settings can make changes without understanding the reasons. It could also be summed up with, "go talk to each other"

It is getting better, but it won't really recover until 2050 to 2060's AFAIK. That said, there are other gasses which might still be bad to let into the atmosphere, so we still don't understand it a 100% There's also the

yeah, that would definitely help! I find it sad that so many high profile open source projects lack in UI, even though there's a lot of smart people working on them. Maybe it's a question about prioritizing time for technical feat
