I daily drive bith RDE/GNUguix (personal) and NixOS (with home manager) (work). Both work really well for my needs. Pros for guix: - guile scheme - better documentation - free software first - strictness means things blow up early - g

It's not a free software license as it restricts freedom zero, the ability to use it for any purpose. https://www.gnu.org/philosophy/free-sw.html#four-freedoms It's interesting because I'm sure no free s

You could probably use Shamir Secret Sharing so you'd need to have k out of n parts to recover the information. Downside is that this complicates what is supposed to be simple. edit: I see other commenters shared this idea too.

If the display of the code is removed from its representation, I think the same could be done for comments. Comments could be kept as part of the AST and rendered how you like. E.g. (+ 1 2) ; Add two numbers. Would become (c

I tried an SSRI for a month, after the first week I was getting into more arguments for no reasons. Usually I'll have some (at least vague) lucidity as to why I'm upset, but at that time I didn't and it made me feel quite st

We learnt some non-standard in a logic class (as a capstone application of FOL and model theory). Perhaps there’s a perceived notion that to understand infinitesimals and such you need a logic background, but logic classes are generally an

I got bit by this when scheduling an interview. It's interesting because it's not that much harder to say America/Chicago (or just Chicago) but it's just by default I tend to say CST, CDT, etc. Started using UTC offset

Would withFADR' :: (FragileAndDangerousResource #-> IO ()) -> IO () be a better type? My reasoning is if I use the linear identity function lid :: forall a. a #-> a in the following withFADR lid I should

I've had these symptoms my whole life (and still do), so it makes me wonder if already having chronic visual disturbances can play a role in developing or "preventing " [1] HPPD. [1] If you already have the symptoms can you g
