There's nothing weird about the obsession. It's the most technically impresive format so far.

Could you provide some sources for the true facts you're asserting?

[Citation needed]. Europe is not some monolithic thing. The education systems between the UK, Germany and Russia differ a lot in how early people have to make decisions about their lives, and how stratified the student classes are.

What is cross siging in the messaging context?

> Element has super bizarre behavior like not allowing to paste into the message composer It requires the clipboard API. Puzzling decision, given that native pasting worked before, but here we are.

You get in trouble only if you see hanging indentations: Foo(Bar(...), baz) But they are not required for a happy life: Foo( Bar(...), baz, ) It's not PEP8, but it works, and it does not depend on the font at all. 80 columns is

I don't think diagrams are meant to be copy-pasted from a lot, so I'm not worried about that. For editing, I'd just use a conversion tool, and edit it in a fixed-width editor rather than directly in code. Yes, it's an ex

They preclude ASCII, but not Unicode diagrams. Unicode block characters have constant width. Unicode also contains fixed-width equivalents to ASCII letters: ａｂｃ. Just add 0xFEE0 to the code point. And 0x3000 is an ideographic space, with th

The idea of VyOS is awesome: have your configuration all in one place, apply it atomically. After using it for several years, the implementation is clearly lacking. It seems that the maintainers are overloaded, because contributions to fix

Computers do have sensors already. Current LLMs have a very limited amount of sensors (basically they receive one token at a time), but it's there.

Atoms are just chemistry and physics! They don't get scared, they don't get happy, they don't get sad, they just run DNA! An arrangement of atoms does not have a consciousness that feels emotions. Sure, it can replicate, but

It's the clear tension of keeping our way of life now versus being able to keep parts of it in the future. Clearly, some people care about the now more than the future.

IIRC, JPEG XL beats avif on high-quality images, and avif is better on low quality. For typical vieo encoding, you don't care about perfection that much.

As someone who had to mess with init scripts for a couple of distros for someone who requested it, this was not far from my idea of pure anti-fun. Every distro did init scripts in different, exciting ways, so I had to start over from readin

What's so bad about GitHub actions? Asking as someone who never used it (gitlab fulfills my needs).

And then another click away when you want to go back to normal. Every time you do it. It's not a matter of clicking, it's a matter of having extra steps in an already diverging workflow.

Except when public transit doesn't have to run on regular roads. Metro, trains, trams. Those win compared to cars a lot of the time. Dedicated bus lanes don't run on regular roads, either. Public standard is substandard when it&#x

By the same logic, we could be looking at a computer system turn into an agent, and we wouldn't notice it.

I'm not so sure about something unusual becoming an empty fad. Medieval fairs are enclaves of the different, and yet you don't see every event turning into a medieval fair to dilute the idea. A designated place matters for the exp

It requires looking farther back into where the energy comes from. Humans are rather inefficient at converting calories in carbohydrates into movement. Electric motors are comparatively better at turning electric potential energy stored in

Hm, now I have to start asking questions of my OS. For what it's worth, my Llano kept hanging up when I tried.
