I love the point in there that it isn't actually xorg vs wayland, it is xorg vs dbus. Wayland is so deficient that basically everything has to depend on dbus if it doesn't want to use X. This framing clarifies the issue substantia

If this does not have a way to track and filter based on who did the audit then it will wind up like the semantic web where anyone can tag a page with safeGoodQuality.

It's that time again! John Wesley Powell warned us about this more than 140 years ago [0]. I strongly recommend that everyone living in the western United States read at least the introduction[1] to Beyond the Hundredth Meridian[2]. Th

That dip centred around 1954 in figure 6 is one of the clearest examples of just how exceptional the experience of the boomer generation is compared to all the rest of human history.

In order to search that space you have to have a specification language for the behavior of the target program. Things like copilot/GPT-3 currently take natural language as input, but that cannot be used for anything that needs to be v

I started out building my own (story for another account) but now that TEX makes the Shinobi [0] it is my daily driver. There are some split mechs that have been modded [1,2] which are closer the Dactyl, but that would definitely be a custo

Counterpoint. I won't use a keyboard without one. I use a mechanical keyboard with a trackpoint. Not having a trackpoint means that I don't even have to think about whether I will buy a laptop, I already know that I won't. To

That's because those data are already available elsewhere and also well known. In addition to lack of insurance, lack of access to primary care physicians means that the first time the medical systems sees a patient is in the ER. This

This is a wonderful exploration further into the original spirit of that comment and very much reflects the experience that I have had as well. The only other runtime I have found that has a similar absence of pain is Emacs (though Emacs ha

Figuring out how to take these realities and tweak the gameplay cycle to make it "fun" seems like a fantastic design challenge. I wonder what the author would think of Dwarf Fortress forts that have been played on the surface.

Time for my usual post on water in the western United States. We have know this for more than 140 years [0]. Since my previous post I can now also strongly recommend that everyone (yes, everyone) living in the western United States read at

As a child my mother taught me HALT! Hungry, angry, lonely, tired. It has served me so well by itself that it was not until today that I went and looked it up and saw that it is widely known and used, though perhaps not as widely is it coul

Please see my other comment. There is absolutely no expectation that it is possible to simply think ones way out of depression. Having already said enough that can be misinterpreted I will say only that clinical depression (and many other d

My original comment does not cover depression. Without going into the underlying biology, it is safe to say that it is exceedingly rare for individuals with depression to be able to break out, because there are biochemical or structural cha

A decade ago when I did leadership training one of the key exercises was developed so that you could demonstrate to yourself that happiness is a choice. Happiness doesn't come from anywhere outside of you, it comes from you. You could

I dual boot windows and linux, but have not booted into windows in years. I can play many games on linux now, but having a completely separate system means I can keep games and work separate. The dock also means it can be used as a real gam

Some people think the problem is that we don't have enough code. Anyone that has to maintain code knows that the problem is that we have too much code.

This is a perfect illustration of why the DNS system is fundamentally broken. There is zero reason why icanhazip.com needs to or should resolve to a single host or even a single virtual host managed by some SDN operated by a corp that contr

The even deeper horror is that they explored many alternate narratives, and this is the one that they collectively though would, and in reality did, resonate most strongly with viewers. The horror isn't the film makers, it is that this

I will point to a related thread [0] along with my previous comment. In the western United States there is no "could" there is only "will." This has been understood for more than 140 years [1]. 0. https://news

I think you are forgetting that there are nuclear missile submarines within striking distance of every major Chinese city. This is a game of chicken, not a game of "who has better logistics."

This reads like multiple instances of the same name in a json object is undefined behavior and the user will get what they deserve if they try to rely on that behavior.

Sandboxing is an issue, though I would argue that sandboxing and packaging are orthogonal concerns, so a new format should not have been needed just for the sandboxing use case. That said, if you are developing sandboxing from scratch prett

I have come to the conclusion that the only reason why things like flatpak and snap exist is because the ergonomics for creating and maintaining .deb packages is so awful.
