Yeah, those are yaks I'm not ready to shave. And I do mostly stick to voice messages on the go. But some people are allergic, so I do try to use voice-to-text then. I'm pretty sure the Ubuntu package for input method googlepinyin

Good reliable text to speak on mobile is quite seemless and pleasant. For instance to "type" messages or thoughts as you're biking. I used a proprietary offline one from Vivo and it was great (unfortunately the keyboard had

The open source keyboard space on Android is weirdly incredibly deficient No way to type Chinese with an open source keyboard. And no way to do local speak-to-text (even English) with an open source keyboard

I didn't realize it was that separated. Would be cool if you could detach the engine entirely and leave it at home when you don't need it. Or buy the car without an engine and rent one when you want to do the annual roadtrip

Oh, it is in effect kinda similar. Though it does it through gearing https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hybrid_Synergy_Drive Not quite motor->battery->wheels. I guess to have the generator be removeable you need a muc

Maybe someone who knows more on the matter could help me understand the efficiency problem. Wouldn't it be more efficient for long trips to run a small generator in the car that charged the batteries? A car engine needs to deal with va

The setup seems a bit convoluted. You can just launch a REPL with 'add-libs' (and whatever other dependency you want) and then add any libs/dependencies you wanna poke at at runtime This isnt to be dismissive. It's stil

Can you compile code from within Linux to run on wine..? I know clang supports Windows, but I haven't heard anyone have a crosscompilation setup like that (sounds handy!)

I always thought this aspect of Wifi password security was a weird annoyance. It just makes thing inconvenient without providing any real security - and it's leaked into Android and taken to new extremes. For instance you can get and s

how does that work in practice？ upstream didn't build with all the dependencies at the same version as the latest in the arch repo. Nor are most upstream developers bumping all their dependency versions constantly if you're a big

"SVG is a horribly complex format and an overkill for most projects" Can this be given more substance..? Does it also apply to SVG v1.1 (Tiny/Basic)? It seems to cover a similarity limited scope. From the landing page its un

yeah, im trying to figure out why people took Office Space as a guidebook instead of satire Hence my question as to what the parent found problematic with a manager with many reports. Its possible self managed teams of ~5 don't work in

i guess its situational. I'm not clear what "the day to day off the team" actually means in concrete terms. I dont mean it in a dismissive way, genuinely curious You need to work with someone or get feedback, then you go tal

i guess its semantic。。do you meet your director every week for several hours? I'm genuinely curious bc it was my one and only proper deskjob. Every other corporate structure sounds like office space

Yes. The manager managed 6+ teams. They had decades of industry experience and were very good at.. Management? dealing with project scope, knowing what clients would find useful, when to change direction etc. Managing a team is realistical

by geokon 4y ago
out of curiosity, what issues did you see? 20 to one seems kinda low in my experience. At my last deskjob it about 30-50 to 1 and it felt like a good balance. My team and I (~5 people) met with the manager once a week for a couple of hours.

I think if you live close to their servers maybe most of the issues would not be noticeable. If the app downloads and installs while you have the app page open then it seems to go smoothly. From Asia, I always get DSL speeds and need to lea

I didn't realize the app was still being worked on. It's been years since the UI update and it's always been amazingly buggy (across 3 different phone). I'm always impressed by how broken it is - especially if you have a

thanks. Interesting examples - and thanks for actually finding in-code examples :) I didn't realize OpenJDK targets systems without filesystems. That's cool. I thought the Java Smart Card days are behind and the Java folks only ca

Why would you not just put test input in a separate test-input file that you pipe in? That way you can test multiple different encodings and all sorts of edge cases While I'm also team ASCII, it's possible I'm not appreciatin

I asked around and there is another option. Something called "Incremental Computations". Here is a Clojure library. I think the examples kinda demo how it works https://github.com/hoplon/javelin It's sor

The issue is that while this greatly simplifies the program logic, when you start to scale the application you do end up with a lot of redundant computation. So in the end you need to either: . take a performance hit . somehow track/up

I'm not super up to date with the web-dev world - but I think the folks in the react-and-company space have taken this the natural step forward With subscription/contexts you get to really pare down the whole imperative shell part

I guess slow/fast is subjective. It didn't seem like enough time passed for a legitimate ecosystem to develop. Just the basic idea of say hosting a static-site/blog on a VPS with a cryptominer that could pay for itself would
