The UX is more than terrible, it is basically unusable. The jitsi stuff is bolted on, you join a link and your user name does not come with you. No discoverablity. Does this channel already have a jitsi room attached, no way to know. I see

I don't think we will agree with each other. I wrote a longer response, but it was just reiterating my previous points. But I'll will leave with a rhetorical straw man argument. Russia has a mandatory draft. These people did not c

Cash is completely fungible because there is no clear trace of money from one person to the next. If someone steals 100k of cash, there is a very low probability that the serial number of those bills were recorded somewhere. And even if the

IANAL This is the difference between patents and copyright. A mechanism that is patented can not be implemented by anyone. It doesn't matter if they did or did not read your source, they cannot implement it. It doesn't even matter

What are the problems you actually have? If you want to deploy and configure something, nix does that exceptionally well. If you want to install up to date software on Debian, RHEL, or other distribution but not negatively impact the system

Java is both a compiler and a run time. You can ship someone a compiled Java and they will still need the JVM to actually run it. Sometimes you need the oven to bake a cake and eat it to.

What's easier making a policy that 20,000 banks have to abide by. Or creating a new digital currency that 20,000 banks AND every business has to figure out how to accept? You hand waved away "creating an app", but that app ha

I'm trying to figure out the why, and the ones in the article do not make a lot of sense to me. Dollars in things like Venmo are already digital currency. I have some balance and I can send that balance to various places. How will this

I like and use nixos as a primary driver, but the nix tool itself needs a product manager. A lot of people have direct commit access and it is really hard to figure out near and medium term goals or their progress. It's how the tool th

This is simply impossible. There is energy loss at every stage. Burning fuel to create electricity is not 100% Transfering that energy over power lines has loss Converting that energy from high voltage to house hold voltage has loss. Chargi

Guix uses patchelf. Patchelf is very useful anytime you want to change the location of dynamic loaded libraries but don't want to set LD_LIBRARY_PATH. It is used in more places than you might originally think.

At this point I should research it myself, but I'm on mobile currently. But how would you print {x} in 1.57? I doubt you would escape it with {{ in that release. Maybe \{ then? Does that still work in 1.58? This still smells fishy to m

Is this feature was introduced in 1.58, does that mean strings in 1.57 didn't need the extra curly braces? I imagine this is going to break a lot of existing code. There doesn't even seem to be a way to have {x} mean the same thin

That's why we should use the term CRAP instead of DRM Content Restriction Access Management would cover all content, including liquid ink. Though you can argue that "digital" in this case is referring to the chip and reader.
