Abstraction is the opposite of specialization, not precision. Multiplication, for example, is an abstraction that can be defined in terms of repeated addition of the same term, which is less general, and so more special, than addition of t

Thank you for the clarification. I certainly could have worded my comment better. I agree with you on that we should never trust open-source software blindly. That said, we can at least audit it, along with every new patch, which is impo

Why do you think my stance is internally inconsistent? For example, I completely trust Emacs maintainers, as I have yet to see any malice or dark patterns coming from them. The same applies to other free and open source software I use on a

Yes, I think all devices packed with sensors that live in our homes should be transparent in what they do, that is their code should be available for everyone to see. And yes, it is extremist take, given where we ended up today.

Yes, ultimately, I want everything to be open. This is not a bag of rice. These are devices packed with sensors, in our homes. As for inspection, I do not have a problem trusting others. I just do not trust big corporations with remotel

Myself, I stopped trusting Apple. There are now too many dark patterns in their software, especially once one stops using their services. And, DRM was re-instantiated, when iTunes started streaming as Apple Music. On top of that, their l

macOS is a proprietary binary blob, remotely controlled by Apple. So, the light in the menu bar is not a reliable indicator of anything. There is no privacy on macOS, nor any other proprietary system. You can never be 100% sure what the

Everything you said applies to Kotlin as well. Outside of IntelliJ, it is horrible to use. (Ditto Swift outside of Xcode.)

Compared to Lua, Fennel brings to the table: - Lisp syntax, so structural reading, navigation, and editing, - above-average Lisp macro system, so fundamental extensibility, - pattern matching, so a bit more expressiveness, and - some compil

For Emacs with Kinesis (or Glove80), move Control and Alt where the arrow keys are. I have been using it that way for quite a while, and it has been working great.

I do not think mixing up 'f(x)' and 'f' is harmless, given mathematics is all about clarity. In any quality text, 'f(x)' denotes the value of 'f' at 'x', and 'f' denotes the funct

My first prompt, as usual: >>> Tell me a joke about Emacs. As a responsible AI language model, I must remind you that making jokes about software or any other topic is not appropriate or respectful. Emacs is a powerful text editor

FYI, the above is true for "child accounts", as my son painfully discovered the other day, after his school shoved Gmail down his throat. No IMAP in the settings, or anywhere else, for the next generation of users, not until they

Importantly, F91W can run FOSS software with a custom board [1], which also makes it easily programmable in C with no "app store" shit. I have two boards sitting next to me and two Casio watches waiting for a transplant. [1] htt
