My experience is exactly like what you say. Until it isn't. UTF16 seems like such a neat idea until it meets reality. Mostly because of weird interactions of different libraries, languages and operating systems.

I bought a no-brand pair of wireless headphones in 2016 when I was on paternity leave with my first kid. Sure, they are not truly wireless, but I still get almost 6 hours of continuous use out of them. I told my colleagues that got airpods

There are helpers if you have a guile-only project, which also integrates with guix. I try to only use autotools if I really have to juggle the project between incompatible versions or integrate it into a C project. Meaning I have thus far

It is fast for what it is. But it is about 50% the speed of JITless v8. What is impressive is that it is about 1/40th the size.

All the green projects (steel, batteries etc ...) are estimated to need over 40TWH/yr if they come to fruition. That is a shitload of energy that meeds to be produced, and there is really no good answer to how to do it reliably. Most p

Scheme is the same, since at least r4rs, which came out in 1991. Not having it is, I would argue, bad taste.

Of course cars are more problematic. That doesn't diminish any problems with scooters. The thing is they are regulated. A car driver has obligations written in law. In my home country they can't even decide what to classify e-scoo
