This question reminds me of the time someone wrote to the letters page of a print publication (I think it was The New Statesman) asking "Whatever happened to the composer of the theme music for Trumpton?" (a popular children'

I think the idea is that you'd be considered to have played honourably but merely lost the match, whereas (at least in the case I know about, which is go/baduk) you're also shamed for life. Sounds like a fun idea to me, not t

I always think it's worth mentioning explicitly that NixOS makes it not just possible to put everything including the root file system on ZFS, it makes it completely easy.

We're very lucky in philosophy that there's a tradition of literally thousands of years of teaching diverse opinions ... or at least most philosophy professors think there is. It's arguable whether or not what we do now has

I don't agree with this paper's statistical analysis, and I think there's probably a different trigger for the change BUT I came here to say that I strongly agree with you that the paper has to be taken on its specific meri

The excellent qutebrowser (and probably several other browsers?) can easily be set up to not have tabs or status bars or anything. I'm sure the other features of Bone are interesting though, like the tiling.

I agree. And I love that Durov carefully says > Telegram gives its users more freedom of speech than any other popular mobile application. (emphasis added by me)

If you want to make your own arpeggios to use with a normal keyboard (I do), I recommend kmonad: https://github.com/kmonad/kmonad

2012 MacBook Pro (running Linux). Super easy to repair. I have several. When they all die I'll go for something like a Framework.

Since we're doing nostalgia: I could see the webcam and could even see through the window (or was it a glass wall?) into the Trojan Room but didn't have a key to get in :-(

I'm so pleased to see this upvoted. Michael Redmond is unspeakably wonderful. He's a top professional player, is fantastic at explaining everything to a kyu player, and prepares his videos really dilligently.

kmonad is the best-kept secret for some reason. Don't tell anybody!

My only issue with it has been excessive happiness. I use it with kmonad to define my own key mappings.

Just on a detail, I discovered recently that there have been various official definitions of "public school" and lists of public schools, and FWIW your school probably counts as one according to those. But I agree with your main

I love elementary OS and would use it on all my computers if I didn't love NixOS even more (and sometimes I use NixOS with Pantheon, elementary's window manager). > all AppCenter apps are now packaged and distributed as Flatpak

Probably a student does not have time or the emotional resources to do all of this! But I totally agree with you in principle.
