Not what you asked for, but something you might find useful: https://github.com/andy31lewis/brySVG A great SVG kit for Brython (browser Python)

Your serial might have worked, but your docker didn’t. (And someone else’s other drivers didn’t, and mmapping had ever-so-slightly different semantics causing rare and hard to reproduce issues). WSL2, on the whole, is much more compatible.

Individual writes are safe, in my Experience with thousands of uSB drives in many configurations, some with 12 2tb drives hanging on multiple USB hubs at the same time. However, there are disconnects/reconnects every now and then. If y

It’s also that way on the C64 - while it came out in 1981, people figures out how to get 8 bit sound and high resolution color graphics with multiple sprites only after 2000…

Interesting. That's not the case in most countries as far as I know - there isn't a way to look up a car owner from the plate (for free or for pay; law enforcement of course can look it up). Income in Sweden is IIRC also public,

This is a list of datasets, not of restrictions, it seems? When they say “ Information captured at the Roadside Automatic Number Plate Recognition system. Only vehicles matching specified criteria (e.g. expired test) are captured.” - meani

The nonlinear element was provided by some intricate physical structure connecting both crystals, with perhaps some other material providing it in the junction.

I vaguely remember reading about heterodyning speakers in the mid 90s - the physics does check out, and such technology should be able to deliver perfectly flat response along the entire audible spectrum and with a tiny footprint. I guess t

Thanks. I agree. My question was referring specifically to the “not paying taxes”. TTBOMK, in all western jurisdiction, sales/vat/etc/income taxes on sales are equal to or higher than those owed on rental income - and op kept

I can see movies that weren’t blessed by Apple, and I can send email with content that wasn’t approved by apple. Most of these analogies don’t make things much clearer. The closest one is: the phone is supposedly my employee - I pay its sal

What taxes ? In most countries you only pay property taxes on real estate, not on random items. What taxes exactly are you referring to?

Reverse engineering requires a different mindset and somewhat different skill set than “forward” engineering. I’ve met people who were happy to only do reverse engineering (to figure out what make things “tick”) without building anything ne

It is lightweight, very easy to understand and reason about (much more than systemd - and it’s not just an issue of familiarity - it has much fewer moving parts than systemd’s service management part). It’s rock solid. It goes to great leng

It actually does all these things. Quite well, even - in my experience better than systemd. I didn’t use nitro, I’ve been using daemontools (which nitro is an evolution of) for decades. Incredibly easy to use, incredibly stable, understand,

The zip directory itself is uncompressed, and if you have lots of small files with similar names, zipping the zip makes a huge difference. IIRC in the HVSC (C64 SID music archive), the outer zip used to save another 30%.

That’s true, but I remember rumors at the time that Onavo already supplied analytics to FB at the time of instagram purchase. Google gave me a paywalled link to FTCWatch that supposedly has the details, but I can’t check.

For the past 20 or 30 years, my insurer made car theft insurance conditional on having an immobilizer device installed that requires code entry through a physical keyboard. And there were a few years this seemed onerous, but most of the tim

Lisp done idiomatically is terse, incredibly so. It's been a while since I've worked in Lisp, but I never used a class, nor did anyone I worked with. I purposely type everything when coding[0], which makes me painfully aware of al

Can you give the model name of the one you use?

by beagle3 1y ago
I have an observation about this: everybody wants a small upgrade that makes it easy for them to make their code a little more concise; But somehow, almost no one wants a language that is already super-terse in the first place (like Lisp or

Well, yes. It’s the same kind of issue. AFAIK, these things are decided opaquely and do not follow any formal rules - which would make them ripe for abuse. The GGP seemed to be ridiculing “those gamers who think their ping is more inportant

Serious question: who gets to decide that some international forum is more important than residents’ use? - be it games, video calls, or whatever else.

I’ve been dropping systemd-timesyncd and using chrome since forever, and it works well. I’m sure some systemd-* things are harder to replace, but not every replacement is a fight against your distro.

The only feature I am missing in Thunderbird is “group by sender, sort groups by latest receive date in group”. I don’t remember what client I used that had this (outlook, perhaps?) but for me it works so much better than other arrangements

It’s not very different, but it’s the numpy way is not the math way: when you talk math, you say “the exponent of the absolute value of the cosine of x”, like in APL, not “take x, get its cosine, then take the absolute value, and then get i

APL was designed as a notation for math; if you pronounce it properly, it makes more sense than numpy: The 10 by 10 reshaping of counting to 100

Nice. It wasn’t there last time I checked. I wonder what percentage of WhatsApp users backup to Google cloud, and what percentage of those use encryption.
