That sounds so valuable. Even for other fields, like the parent commenter said. I’m in engineering, but I have a growing interest in journalism. I’ve already graduated and here in Norway we don’t really do double degrees or minors anyway. M

Nice job! How does the drawing work? I enjoyed trying to reach the very top of the test level. Spotted your greeting :)

That turn of events always struck me as funny too. Ironically (re. the title), I believe he even referred to the preceding standard of mobile browsing as the “baby web”. But now “responsive design” has taken over instead. Still no multitouc

Same here. The fact that a usually "tasteful" company like Apple decided to demonstrate VR intruding into our life in this way, makes me somewhat worried about the future. By comparison I suddenly find something like the Valve Ind

You're right - I just updated my comment with some terrestrial cable info as you posted this.

I know that Norway has subsea power cables to various European countries. Apparently the North Sea Link[1] which came online in 2021, is the longest such cable in the world at 750 km. Drawing a 750 km line from the coast of Morocco I can al

I just looked this up myself. It was proposed as part of last year's COMPETES act: https://prospect.org/politics/congress-proposes-500-million-... I only found articles on this from when the act was still moving t

Re my comment in this thread, I realise maybe this is the distinction I should make to find good podcasts. I should look for ones without guests.

I haven't had interest in podcasts beyond the few occasions I've tried, because I consistently got the sense that a podcast was made in the interest of the creator (as something "low effort"), instead of me as a listener

Agreed. But I suppose the creator (an electrical engineering student) thinks of continuous vs. discrete in terms of analog vs. digital signals.

Exactly my question. How confusing. Especially since there is some feature discrepancy between WSL1 and WSL2, sometimes there is a need to use the former.

Same for "apologize [sic]", in the same paragraph. That's a bizarre decision by the journalist or editor. Will they [sic] every ou vs. o and s vs z? I'd either ignore it, or just change the quote to British English, I as

I suppose you're commenting with tongue in cheek but, if cryptominers are gonna cryptomine anyway, I don't see reason to waste energy on OS tasks (if they can manage without them).

Just to add to that - Students at the Norwegian University of Science and Technology do not pay tuition fees. So the stipend and loan provided by Lånekassen go mainly to living expenses.

Well, I’d like to thank the author for writing this. I always enjoy having the veil of “magic” lifted from computers. UNIX’s simplicity of “everything is a file” continues to surprise me, even though it shouldn’t any more. I think a lack of
