Hm, how does one not get into that conclusion? Most everyone would agree we have the concept of "selfness", yet I don't think there's a scientific theory to explain how a set of physiochemical processes can have that end

FreeCAD relies on OpenCascade kernel to actually deal with the models, and yes, there's still room for improvement.. As I understand it, there are no other open source alternatives around. On the commercial side there are some, perhaps

It seems though not having systemd in it would be against "init freedom": https://www.devuan.org/os/init-freedom . Or is there some particular criteria an init system needs to satisfy to be included, that sys

It's not an argument in the first place: it's describing the current situation. Wayland does exist, and did draw development away from X.

You're making the analogy work: because the point of weightlifting as a sport or exercise is to not to actually move the weights, but condition your body such that it can move the weights. Indeed, usually after doing weightlifting, y

The required-test-per-function is sort of interesting. But it's not enforced that the test does anything useful, is it? So I wonder how exhausting would it be to write in a language that required, for all functions, that they are teste

Amazing that these tools don't maintain a replayable log of everything they've done. Although git revert is not a destructive operation, so it's surprising that it caused any loss of data. Maybe they meant git reset --hard or

I took a look at both, and I think I'd need the jj split function (comparable to staging individual lines) to be implemented in jj-mode to match my use of magit.

As I understand it, this tag might be at some point be supported by non-Google browsers as well, without access to Google internal databases. At first probably the Chromium-derived ones, which this tag probably lands up at some point.

I tried it, and I'm sure it's not a based on any language model. Sounds like espeak-ng or its ilk, so it probably uses whatever's available? The TTS repo was updated 5 years ago and links to installation instructions for Ubun

I think I'd love to use Jujutsu, but I enjoy Magit (for Emacs) too much to entertain the thought of switching :/. Besides, Magit rebasing is also pretty sweet.

Merging merge requests as merge commits (rather than fast-forwarding them) gives the same granularity in the main branch, while preserving the option to have bisect dive inside the original MR to actually find the change that made the inter

Sqlite does not have a server component (although there may be other projects that do provide sqlite as a server). Sqlite files are also just files on the disk.

Seems like Mermaid parsing and layout would be a useful crate as by itself. I would enjoy a fast mermaid layout command line tool with svg/pdf/png support, which I think would be quite feasible to implement with such a crate.

Aren't Anthropic in control of all the legitimate clients? They can download a new version, possibly automatically. I believe the key issue here is that the product they're selling is all-you-can-eat API buffet for $200/month

Then they'd start pinning certs and hiding keys inside the obfuscated binary to make traffic inspection harder? And if an open source tool would start to use those keys, their CI could just detect this automatically and change the keys

Or call the tool "Read" and it works, according to an issue comment. But actually the solution is checking out how the official client does it and then doing the same steps, though if people start doing this then Anthropic will pr

Aren't PINs usually short, and might even be really be made out of just digits in the first place? So would there be real security benefits in adding that to the key?

The financial aspect of the project is the service they sell, core is open: https://github.com/typst/typst What the core lacks is the web service that offers e.g. collaborative editing.

Right, so it's not like a union type Type | Null. Then naturally it works the same way as in the languages I listed.

How does this work if it is given an empty list as a parameter? I guess if one is always able to construct default values of T then this is not a problem.
