Some good questions to ask in this case: - How long will this last? - What's in it for Oracle? Oracle is not known for its benevolence or free services. Quite the opposite.

It’s called “anti-glare coating” for eyeglasses in the US. Works very well, at least for my eyes. I’m sure you could find non-prescription variants. The downside is the coating seems to last 3-5 years or so.

The parent indicates in a comment that they use an Apple Silicon Mac[1]. I don't see a lot of engineers running Intel Macs anymore. I haven't seen any engineers who still use an Intel model, myself, and for quite some time. Espe

1. I thought "Sapphire is a next‑generation, Rust‑powered package manager inspired by Homebrew" covered it pretty well. 2. It's a personal project. 3. It's explicitly declared as alpha software.

For the last 5 years (since Apple Silicon was released), Homebrew has installed to /opt/homebrew by default.

Lots of people questioning what Pike brings to the table. Be aware that Pike has been around for over 31 years [1]. It's kind of dead now and a lot of people have moved over to Lua[2] (which is over 32 years old!). So long ago, that i

For the benefit of others' "imposter syndrome", I'll jump in and say it's not just you (the reader, not the parent). It's a really dense article and was really hard for me to follow. And yes, the diagrams are g

It's not perfect, but I like it fine. I definitely like it better than Fink and DarwinPorts, though those may be technically superior. It's not super simple, but for your htop example, you could probably do something like the foll

It might have been Keybase? Keybase got acquired back in 2020 and it's popularity -- at least among cypherpunks, seems to have dropped off. https://keybase.io/

If SilverBullet were into acquiring more users (they may not be), they could use some major help with their site design. When I visit the SilverBullet link, I get a wall of text. And at the very top is a warning about versions and a link to

Sure fine but they describe themselves as the “party of personal freedoms” so the same applies, in my mind. The point being neither party is anywhere close to being a party of either thing. There are giant “plot holes” in both their platfor

Not to lessen your point, because I 100% agree, but I'd like to point out that you could swap a couple words in your statements to make the same point about the Democrats: - Small government: cut things we don't like (e.g. milita

- Simple syntax and easy to read. - Compiles down to efficient machine code. - Very well documented. - Preferably the language is close to the metal. I avoid using C practically everywhere these days, but tend to prefer it for embedded prog

Perspective. I guess that Reddit video mentioned above doesn’t seem so graphic after reading your comment. I try to rationalize it all by knowing that we, especially westerners, largely live in this seemingly safe facade we like to call “ou

It’s not about it being cool. It’s about it feeling “normal”. I’m not even sure this is caused by trauma so much as just living a whole other life in a whole other culture with completely different norms, even with combat aside. Going back

Keep this in mind: The future doesn't care about our feelings. It's going to happen regardless of what we think. There is a ton of uncertainty and rapid evolution happening and it's okay to not have an opinion, reserve judgem

I had an 800XL and a 520ST, but I don't recall ever seeing or hearing about the 1200XL. I feel like I just entered some bizarro universe. But wow, I really love it's physical design.

In this case, itt's easier to just run it locally: https://github.com/invisal/sqlite-internal But you can get sort of what you want by: 1. Loading a site. 2. Go into the Web Dev Tools. 3. Select the Network tab. 4

1. Understanding the fundamentals deeply, so that it's "muscle memory". Everyone is trying to race and learn as much as they can. I think they'd get much farther by focusing more on the fundamentals of the technology the

I do this. I have about a dozen Spotify playlists saved to my phone and laptop for offline use. Often times, the tracks didn't match the style I selected, in my opinion . For example, if I select the Chill style, I don't want an

If it's not helpful don't use it. Personally, this appears to be extremely helpful for me, because instead of checking several different spots every day, I can get a coherent summary in one spot, tailored to me and my family. I&#x
