I think crypto will only have long-term success or maturity if the unwilling people such as myself combined with the general population will be compelled or feel obligated to use any of it, to the same level of utility such as electricity o

Today is like a better version of the 1960's. Two things: 1) The new space age, really aiming far to the Moon and Mars. 2) The altered state of mind that wide acceptance of Psychedelics is going to bring to the masses.

We can fix the Earth's ecology from the damage of the last century and expand into space at the same time - these are not mutually exclusive. There can be enough people and funding to do both. And even better - the technology develop

Every respectable hacker remembers the spec of their first computer. 286 + 1MB RAM + 40MB hard drive. This was 1992 and it was valued about 1000$.

I've recently coded something like this, however with significant differences from what OP is presenting. Here are the most important differences: - Using a zsh plugin, it works for every command that I run, but only if I need it, so i

Why not `thiserror` for executables as well? It happened to me a few times that I started to write an executable program, but then realized I want to embed its functionality in a library. Converting from `anyhow` to `thiserror` at that stag

Perhaps not impossible - sometime after 2040, a deep learning model reconstructs the entire "Titanic" (the James Cameron film) from a total of 1,000 frames, the script, and voice samples of the actors.

Yes it is similar, however it targets editing commits that already exist instead of operating on the index or worktree.

Thanks! This is really needed in a world of constantly distractedly updated news feeds and doomscrolling. I'll try having this in a tab, F5 once a day. Just to get that feel of "I know what's going on".

Assuming that Github static pages infrastructure is maintained without breaking CNAMEs for the next half century, and assuming you pay for your domain 50 years in advance, maybe the static website can remain for that long?

Nice! Looking forward to it. The bundling of 1980's synth music is also nice. Why I find synthwave so alluring, perhaps it promotes nostalgia which chronologically depicts times that are most farther than the horrors of the 1940's

That's true. The effort was very concentrated. Those days in late 2003 were crazy. Waking up at noon to work on it for until 9:00pm, and then off to a night shift writing boring tests script stuff until the morning. And also weekends.

These two are not mutually exclusive. To be more exact, coLinux is a VM running under a device driver. The driver is mainly just a bridge to get into the privileged execution path and manage the resources it needs.

There's an interesting thread [1] on github.com regarding this. Here is a copy of the comment I added there: I was not surprised when Microsoft took the approach with WSL2, as I've gone a similar path when writing coLinux. I'

I'm the original author of this project. It warms the heart to see that it helped so many fellow hackers to introduce themselves to Linux! Recalling this, it makes me feel quite a old hack, when I started this back in December 2003, wi

A few years after the project was created, I was contacted occasionally by people who wanted to assist in developing a 64-bit port. This required the same technical depth in kernel hacking as recreating the thing, and quite a lot of work. U

It's useful, but makes you wonder why they haven't taken it one step forward and allow you to edit the diff too while you're at it.
