If apps followed SemVer properly they should be bumping the major version for most UI changes (let alone overhauls), as they all break user workflows. If a button moves, you need to learn the new location. Shortcut changes? Tough luck, your

The beetle has less legs than the spider, but more wings. Darwin's admiration could have extended to all earthworms.

Problem of biodiversity is one way of putting it. New Zealand did not have any mammals apart from bats. When those arrived, the native wildlife were not equipped to deal with them. See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stoa

Yeah, NixOS really benefits from you understanding what it's changing. Last year I wanted to make flatpak use a different partition. Some searches (and reading the docs) later, I decided to use /etc/flatpak/installations

Dropping the "very" would lose some of the sarcasm though.

I switched to Sidebery a couple of months ago, and I find that it's somewhat better at restoring trees (though that could just be luck). I feel it's a bit more responsive, but these days I trim my tabs a bit more aggresive than I

I clicked that, which led me to https://github.com/fjames86/cerberus Took a look at the issues, and the top issue is about not being able to connect to AD. The dev then says that it looks like the algo used has been de

I think there's value in that style of definition. I found "a monad is just a monoid in the category of endofunctors" the most useful explanation of monads. I didn't know what an endofunctor—or a moniod—was when I read i

Sounds like you don't know it will bounce? Which is a different scenario.

Yeah, that was a surprise to me when I toyed with Windows Projected File System. Turned off the program, and all my "pretend" files were still there.

I don't think that was a preference. I read it more as a statement about how Reddit's actions seem to be going against their own interest, and their motives are unknown....

I can see how it happened, but the first one does not make sense. Most people would expect argument defaulting to be per execution. If the argument is None, instantiate it with this new value. I'm curious what making it shared and muta

Kanata is good. I use it to have some consistent keyboard configuration between Linux and Windows. One nice feature it has over AutoHotKey[^1] is that it can use Interception (a keyboard filter driver) to handle keys earlier, which lets it

It is silent until you press ^t, and then it prints the current progress. It's not constant output.

I was just looking that up as I feel like browsers have gotten more performant over the years, just that websites have slown down. Both browsers claim a Pentium 4 as the min req. Firefox also wants 512mb ram for 32 bit systems, and 2gb for

Could be ctrl+shift. It's easy to mistype, and there's no UI feedback. Also used to only change a single window's language (not sure if that's the case anymore, as I use win+space).

Isn't the restart there because explorer is also the desktop? If it was just killed, you'd have to know how to launch shutdown.exe from the task manager etc.
