The relationship between thoughts and proofs is analogous to the relationship between noise and music. It’s a subset kind of relationship. There is also the social aspect: people have to agree on it. Noise becomes music, and thoughts become

I think you need to go down the conditionals in order anyway, if cond* it’s like cond in that it evaluates the conditions top to bottom. So keeping track of “all the bindings so far” makes intuitive sense to me. I also see a parallel to if&

Well, GP compared the rules against real life and decided that they are different from real life, so they shouldn't be followed. Chess rules are also different from real life, but people don't have any issues following them. The q

> I don't agree with that condition, and ignored it. Fascinating. It’s a game! No Knight moves one square to the right and two up, but it seems chess players have no problem with it.

So fish comes with nice defaults. It could happen that you have a complicated zsh setup, then migrate to fish and you find the defaults are fine. The fish scripting language is nicer (more logical) than the zsh one. That's because zs

I wasn't able to get smooth scrolling on Terminal.app nor iTerm2. But I would love to.

Very interesting. I expected smooth scroll in VSCode to do like the video does. But no, it does not affect single-line scrolling. It affects scrolling a page! For Firefox, smooth scrolling behaves exactly as I expect, but it affects scro

I see. Thank you, I missed that aspect. Of course, adding a symlink “~/f” that points to “funstuff” would work around the limitation, at the expense of typing two more characters. Four more if you count the leading “~/”.

The other option was to put them into CDPATH instead... 6,000 of them? (I guess you are using an alternative to CDPATH, but you haven't said.)

I vaguely remember that the program and built-in could not always do the same, eg the program might not have supported -e. But it’s possible that ksh was used to get -e. Does anyone remember better than I?

I've come across articles like this and they usually tell you to make use of an LLM. Is it possible to kind of compute a language model (maybe not that large) based on a given corpus?

In German, you have to ask the customer whether they want to be addressed in the formal way “Sehr geehrter Herr Schmidt” (esteemed Mr. Schmidt might be an approximate translation, of course this sounds totally off in English) or the informa

Your parent suggested to make changes to TS so that TS is no longer compatible with JS (in the sense you described). Once that happens, compiling to WASM instead of transpiling to JS is a very valid design choice.
