I was taking an intercity coach to Glasgow recently and a teenage kid was on his phone browsing social media without headphones. I made a comment that he should use headphones or turn the volume off. He got defensive and angry. I did not to

I always find it annoying to manage nested tmux sessions so I usually use Kitty's keyboard driven tab management and tmux for server side sessions.

KRunner is great, has a lot of features including currency and unit conversion. I use it almost exclusively now.

We have concrete examples of defence of genocide, such as by Scott Aaronson. Can you provide the examples of "false accusations of genocide", otherwise this is a hypothetical conversation.

> Intel-based Macs will continue receiving security updates for 3 years following macOS Tahoe This is is great to hear, but even 3 years are probably not enough. 2020-made computers should be used 5+ years more.

Re both discontinuation of Windows 10 and Mac OS for Intel Macs: it is criminal that the two biggest corporations in the world cannot maintain softwares for millions of hardware units and force their untimely retirement.

I agree. I use both and have a slight preference towards Fedora these days, but nevertheless I believe that the foundation for the EU OS should be a European distro. Practically there is very little difference between OpenSUSE Tumbleweed an

I use Neogit for Neovim, they say it's inspired by Magic and I love it. It's good that these tools permeate mainstream IDEs.

Are any of these already useful as LSPs for code editors such as Neovim? I run pyright in my Neovim config but I could certainly use something faster.

I use Nix and Home manager to keep a consistent terminal development environment (Neovim and friends) across my personal computers and on the HPC cluster. I never used NixOS. It took me a while to craft a working and flexible config, but si

Are you running both DearImGui visualisation and training locally? If not, how can one use it in the client-server mode? I think this is the most common requirement for visualisation libraries in Deep Learning.

Previous status quo was absolutely unjustified, therefore brave students protested it, at a great personal risk while being slandered as "antisemites" by individuals like Scott Aaronson.

These people (not only MAGA) perverted the very meaning of antisemitism to the point that it means nothing today. I am saying that as someone who's lost a family member to Holocaust. When I hear someone mention antisemitism today, 90%

No, submeta specifically talked about people with "strong ties to Russia" and "strong ties to Israel". This needs clarification, but in the context of the article this clearly means to the country's governments or m

That was not the point. You can hire both Russians and Israelis, as long as they were not involved in the occupation of Ukraine and Palestine respectively. It gets more trickier with Israel, because of the mandatory conscription to the occu

I use nix package manager on 3 of the systems I'm working daily (one of them HPC cluster) and none of them run NixOS. It's possible to carefully sculpt one's tools and use latest and greatest.

I wasn't aware of their build quality degradation. I've been using T14s Gen 3 for a year now and I thoroughly enjoy it, the chassis is magnesium and really sturdy. Something must have happened around Gen 5 time.

I am daily driving ThinkPad T14s Gen3 AMD that I bought off Ebay a year ago. It was opened but new with warranty until 2026 and I only paid for 600 British pounds for it. It is not as repairable as their other models but it has a premium qu
