Well, I think drinking b12 enriched soy milk counts. I don't think it's a given that just because you're vegan you'd drink soy milk either. I don't drink any milk and try to avoid soy and also don't take multiv

I wasn't comparing package formats at all. I only mention RPM to generalize the type of distro. It was definitely more recent then 12 years ago. Maybe it wasn't mandriva but it was a kde based distro. I prefer KDE and many of the

I remember reading a blog a long time ago by sometime who was vegan talking about the long term (something like 9 years) effects of eating a vegan diet without properly supplementing the nutrients you'd get with red meat. Apparently yo

One of the things that Debian distros have over RPM based distros to me is installation. Even the worst one I've used (Debian stable) is better any RPM one. I've tried openSUSE and mandriva. Also, there's something about RPM

For many of us making a compile to c language is many times more feasible than using something like llvm. I'm not saying it's great mind you but it's probably the best thing available without a runtime. For debugging i believ

What about code signing. Won't people that run your programs want to do so without the OS claiming it will harm their computer?

Is that why so many people sound so much like Adele or some other popular artist?

Odysee (front end to LBRY) seems to have a fair number of creators using it. Like others have said there is also Nebula and CuriosityStream.

I keep seeing WebGPU being pitched as a successor to OpenGL. However as someone who's used it, it's not yet the obvious choice. The native API is still not stable yet. Meanwhile we have things like Bgfx and Diligent that do the sa

I'm pretty sure math is the most poorly taught subject out of all of them. Social studies, current events, history, literature arts are mostly skills most people use everyday. Math is important so every school is required to teach it h

They wish. Naturally wearing screens on your head is not a healthy thing for humans to do for hours at a time. Naturally that tends to cause headaches, eyestrain, nausea etc. Now as far as making them more useful I suppose *if* they can sol

I'd think that all of them would be solved by time. I'm just saying they are nothing to be concerned with until they are (and we are still far way from that point in time). They are just fancy demos to make a company look attracti

I too am curious about this. I've seen other languages with similar features similar such as Odin and C3 but they used llvm and now Odin is trying to use TildeBackend (from cuik c compiler) as an alternative. What i'm really inter

This sounds close to what I've been wondering about lately. I was wondering if css and svg could be used as abstraction over graphics and UI libraries. This is my first time hearing of node-canvas looks like it fills the drawing part o

Would it be possible to do a p2p aggregator (Like yacy but for atprotocol)?

Yeah, I was recently reading the history of smalltalk and some of it's creators goals was to make it possible for everyone to be "computer literate". That is everyone being able to make their own programs without specialist p

Those are pretty bad issues. I remember using it along time ago and only remember the results being bad. I've heard that Yacy could be good for searching sites you've already visited but it sounds like even that might not be a goo

I'm with you on that. In fact I think it's needed to use something less complex than rust in order to prevent other bugs from cropping up due to misunderstood parts of language. C has some bad things it does by default that lead t

As far as I can tell Jakt's reference counting is not optional. So it may be closer to Swift. That being said I've seen a few people here suggest it's easier to use rust's Rc and Box for everything and treat it like Hask

With the promises of AT Protocol I wonder what the reality of starting your own competing site to bluesky would be if it were to become as popular as Twitter. I've also been looking into LBRY too and have the same question in regards O

I think the presumption of what users want is a kind of classism. Users are humans and as humans we have a hierarchy of needs that can lead to certain tradeoffs. Doesn't mean only the techies appreciate things like privacy and having a
