This seems like a less-interactive `lnav`, somewhere between `lnav` and `tail -f`, which is great for me to see, as I think this problem-space may be under-researched.

I think there is also an extra scope embedded in the `for`. So enclosing it would be closer: { int i = 0; while(i < 10) i++; }

From what I saw of him, he never said that it is impossible to build non-GPL compilers, he said that the work free software developers do should not "help" proprietary software. So yes, he basically said that if you want to develo

You may want to try using DavMail [1] for interfacing with Outlook. It is a reverse-proxy for email, so it talks to Outlook, and then mu4e can talk to DavMail directly. [1] http://davmail.sourceforge.net/

Some people that were interested in their productivity that I read seemed to have systems that regularly cleaned their todo lists for old tasks. Stephen King [1] advises aspiring writers not to note their writing prompts, as the best ideas

This is exactly one of the things the FSF tried [1] for more than a decade at least. It is very good to promote free and open source software in the public sector, but it seems that legislators are again late on the issue (and incidentally

I think that may actually be considered buggy, and the actual definition should be long add(int x, int y) { return x + y; } with the caveat of course that `long` is larger than an `int`, which I can't recall if it is valid on a

I wonder if an asymmetric scheme would work best, even though it may be unbalanced? For example, for any one popular video you watch, while you watch it, you also have to download and seed a small part of an unpopular video, even if you don

Isn't this best done with the trie-based dictionary (as in lexical dictionary) approach? Am I missing something here? Is there some additional compression opportunity due to the fact that all the words are the same length?

That may have been true if much of the cost of education was not artificial, like non-free manuals (as in free software) or paying for non-open access journals.

A very curious case is that huddles for me work in wayland (under sway), and don't work in X11 (under i3), for the exact same configuration otherwise. I have not investigated what exactly the browser sends.

I think the design trade-off was to aid with multiple dispatch, one of the core paradigms in Julia. There, the implicit bind in `x.foo(y, z)` does not make `foo` useful for multiple dispatching, so their hand was forced. They may have gotte

Is there a way you deal with multiple email accounts? I found this to be the hardest thing when using mutt (neomutt). Clunky macros to change accounts. The second hardest thing was actually streamlining using it with gmail accounts.

I feel this is the exact blind spot that technical projects such as GNU tried to avoid, by putting human rights before the actual code and documentation, and telling you every time about it.

This is exactly what I felt was missing as well. Git is the kind of "skill" you can only master on the job, doing lots of case studies, not just reading documentation and tutorials. There are lots of other programs like that, GDB
