Wine can be a bit of a headache if you are on a couple year older distro as it can make it harder to install newer Wine versions. But I found that the Bottles project pretty much solves this, by installing everything in some kind of sandbox

I wonder if the control system was running windows 98 :) Jokes aside, would be interesting with some more details, if anybody got them.

Markdown + Vim-wiki plugin is a really powerful combo, that is still all only markdown underneath. And yes, you can combine that with something like Obsididan at any time.

fun is the best, as it makes the function name align with the code block indented 4 characters :D fun main() { println("Hello, world!") } ^ aligned here! \o/

On Twitter, Andreas points out that his Keynote Presentation on the Ladybird Browser on the FUTO conference in Texas earlier in the year, might be the best current introduction to the project: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v

This is such an important project, to keep the big corporations from completely controlling the future of the web. And it doesn't hurt that Andreas seems to be such a nice, humble guy.

Yeah, perhaps the GitHub README [1] had been better ... but it seemed like the most "official" page. [1] https://github.com/carbon-language/carbon-lang/?tab=readme-o...

Sounds super interesting, though as a novice I'd be interested to know about how it differs from FPGAs?

... and if you (the parent comment author) wants a really easy tool for creating a UI for the Python code, I'd recommend looking at Streamlit: https://streamlit.io/

I'd go out on a limb and say the rock-solid out-of-the box experience is what is keeping many people using R-studio (and even R itself), rather than the messy ecosystem of Python. I'm seeing this tendency in myself for some tasks.

To implement an efficient dataflow-based programming API/DSL, you better have some support for channels and lightweight threads in a scriptable language, something that you've got in Groovy with the GPars library that Nextflow use

The 99% identity with chimps is extremely misleading without clear qualification. The fact that it has been used without qualification has a lot to do with the fact that most of our genome was assumed to be junk, which we know today is not

In later years, I returned to XSLT to try parsing a structured text format for tool definitions in the Galaxy bioinformatics platform. Turns out you can do a lot with the RegEx-support in XSLT 2.0! https://saml.rilspace.com/

In the early 2000s, XSLT allowed me as a late teenager with some HTML experience but without real coding skills (I could copy some lines of PHP from various forums and get it to work) to build a somewhat fancy intranet for a local car shop

While I think there is some truth to that regarding the programming paradigm, I always felt the EVM have two big drawbacks, compared to something like Go: 1. Requiring a VM, making deployment more complex. 2. Not being natively compiled, or

Sidenote, but I wish it became the practice to explain abbreviations such as BGP, to make the post intelligible to people outside the field.

Can second about the concurrency syntax! Did a small comparison with Go a few years back [1]. I my tests I have got the feeling it is causing a lot less gotchas with blocking go-routines and such. Not sure why that is though. Surprised to h

So now we are going towards using models to more efficiently store information, and let them talk to each other, instead of moving massive datasets around, as briefly outlined in 2023 in [1] & [2] (although I would anticipate that linke

Yes, I noticed that doing finger agility exercises (on the piano) implies huge improvements for the day after, while very limited benefits for the same day.
