There are plenty of USB keyloggers available for purchase right now. While I can try and conjecture how those might work, that's not really in my lane.

What's stopping this thing from keylogging or inserting keystrokes? Malicious USB devices are fairly common, and this certainly has the 'right' form factor. There's a reason 'do not plug in a USB drive you have foun

That's a pretty good idea. If this was a small 40$ attachment you could put on the dull edge of any knife, this would be great.

Yeah that would have been the way to go, if not for two generations of dumbing down the American education system.

Why not run a virtual x session and run Xmonad inside it? Wouldn't be lightweight or ..say.. easily GPU accelerated, but should work with some plumbing effort.

Neat. If you add some automatic memoization, I'll use it for my next project! Here's the use case: expr := ... rule1 := expr foo expr rule2 := expr bar When trying to match rule1 and failing, it is great to have the expr part of i

The zeitgeist of what produces good outcomes tends to change somewhat fast. This is the line of thought that led the US to tear down railways, city center train stations, and built freeways through the middle of cities. They thought they we

> fork both C++ and Clang Great! What are you waiting for? If you try to answer that question, you'll also find why other similar projects are not finding much traction yet.

It doesn't matter what you think scales. If you don't design infrastructure based on what people want, they are going to do it anyway. And things will be extremely chaotic. No amount of fees, fines, etc will change that.

This repo has enough red flags to warrant some suspicion. You have also not attempted to hide that, which is interesting.

My use case is reading PDFs with a large number of complex figures and tables. Not really their advertised use case, but works better than an ipad for me.

That's the first supported generation for the official open source drivers. Make sure you have switched over instead of using the old proprietary one.

With an older GPU, things aren't smooth I believe. So it might make sense to avoid Wayland in that case.

That has been by experience. Browser seems fine for me. With Arch, you have to read up ahead of time before updating software because it's a rolling release. I remember one breaking change when I was switching from the previous Nvidia

Go on, 'Prove it'. Write a version that's faster. I know it's doable, because I have done it. You don't seem to understand yet how complex it will be. My guess is ~10x the number of lines of code. It'll be sign

You’d be right if this was 1950. Since then literally all hardware, and compilers, have this specific use case so optimized that you’ll likely see the opposite if you benchmark it.
