They have exoskeletons, which still serve the stated purposes.

I don't think the world permits so easy mobility. I have worked with cleaners who ticked all those boxes, they were still stuck in their job. Meanwhile not all managers tick those boxes.

Yeah, I was also led to understand that if you've distributed version 1.00 of your code with a license, there's no rescinding that, you can only stop distributing the license for versions 1.01 onwards. People wouldn't be all

How many people know GitHub can do that? Your comment was the first I'd heard about it.

Doubt it applies. Growing up deaf, you'd have wired your brain to pay attention to other information sources than the audio stream.

It's kinda-sorta possible on Linux distros, you know, with cliphist and all these little programs, but you have to do a lot of custom stitching, adding Firefox extensions to interoperate in such-and-such ways, and most programs don

An incomplete list of compositors (they forgot hyprland): https://github.com/solarkraft/awesome-wlroots#compositors Among non-tiling ones are: hopalong, labwc, laikawm, tinybox, waybox, wayfire.

The reasons are no mystery. As a sibling to your comment said, many programs have been written as if X was going to exist forever, with direct calls to X all over the place. Plus X is mature with a million accumulated bug-fixes, so natura

When talking Wayland, there are no generalities because there is no program called "Wayland" -- can you specify which compositor you used? GNOME, KDE, or a wlroots-based one?

Instead of adjusting desk height, you can adjust chair height. (Add a footstool if necessary.)

This can also easily be a filter on the part of the reader: anything FP is always close to triggering the "smug" concept, even if they don't use words that would be read as smug if the topic was something else. Same way some

I don't have a high-res screen (just 1280x800), so to me it's one of the most readable pages I've ever seen. Although curiously, it also looks great on the iPhone by default (which is high-res). I assume you're on some

I like it too. Somehow more suitable for coding than Comic Sans ever was for text.

Protip: navigate to a different page, not a listing of products, then you may be able to scroll to the footer.

If you built a rope-bridge, I'm sure people would beware of cramming it. Maybe it's possible to build designs that discourage. Where are you from? I haven't seen an "annoyingly narrow" ped/cycle bridge in Swed

I learn better when I pay less attention to XP and approach it like this e.g. on Duolingo's most common exercise where you have to assemble words into a sentence, I avoid looking at the words and formulate a sentence in my head first.

Plus, with time it becomes more like writing programs and less configuration. I write Elisp commands like I used to write shell scripts. These commands do entirely new things. I feel that can't count as mere configuration.

Unnecessary. We already write in our own unique style, so if our post is longer than a sentence or so, stylometric tools can prove it was you and not ChatGPT. I guess they will be the ultimate solution to StackOverflow's fight against

You make a good point. But Finland would develop nukes now if not for the option to join NATO. People are saying that the nonaligned countries didn't use to worry because Russia used to respect the international order, the one where y

A hardened Firefox config exists: https://github.com/arkenfox/user.js But it needs tech skill to adopt, so even if this Mullvad Browser is basically just prepackaged Arkenfox, that's great to drive adoption.

Yes, that's how it works, if you're talking about the setting privacy.resistFingerprinting.letterboxing. To my memory, the list is any multiple of 200 on width and any multiple of 100 on height. So at this moment my viewport is,
