How do they use the clutch? If they're doing reverse heel-and-toe braking then I don't get how they find standard driving difficult.

If I make a game with SDL then I am not the user of SDL, I am an intermediary between the people who develop SDL and the player who eventually uses SDL in interacting with the game. Calling people who distribute libraries with their program

I learnt touch typing with KDE's Ktouch (a touch typing tutor program), which has auto-generated courses for various layouts but also has a manually laid-out course for Dvorak. It really made me appreciate how well Dvorak works for lea

Yes. To be specific, it is data. It can also be code when placed in a context where code is expected (for example in the REPL). If taken as code and evaluated it will probably raise some kind of exception (saying that '1' isn&#x27

Already exists: https://github.com/mwitmer/guile-wm There might also be ones in other Schemes, but as FFI hasn't been standardised across Schemes yet I doubt there's an implementation-agnostic one.

They should relicense to the GPL, MIT doesn't preserve user rights. Seriously, I don't get what Rust projects' issue with Free Software is, providing free work that corporations can take and mangle into proprietary garbage is

Greens here in Europe often complain about nuclear reactors and I just don't have the heart to tell them.

As a Common Lisper with a Scheme background I'm gonna guess that by the interactivity of the REPL you mean the condition system with restarts? While most Schemes don't really have anything like it, I seem to recall MIT/GNU Sc

Helicopters, on the other hand, we know perfectly well how they fly. They fly by being so ugly gravity rejects them.

Gwen Weinholt also has some interesting posts on her blog: < https://weinholt.se/ >, for example on writing device drivers in Loko Scheme and on issues with the specification of quasiquote.

This is where the 'unknown unknowns' quote comes in useful. I don't know anything about blockchain technology, but I know that I don't know anything about it. When you make software which involves handling people's

I vehemently disagree. 'Well, they didn't know what they were doing, so we shouldn't judge them too harshly' is a silly thing to say. They didn't know what they were doing _and still went through with it_. That&#x27

What subtle difference? On a telephone the numbers are in a circle, whereas on a calculator they're in a square. They're completely different.

What did the Cocos Islands do to deserve that? They don't seem to be a den of villainy and cybercrime.

I don't think anyone would ever get in trouble for creating digital backups, but yeah: making video games available to the public without permission from the copyright owner is a good way to get at the very least ceased-and-desisted.

If I remember correctly there are 5 optimization settings: 1. Speed 2. Debug 3. Safety 4. Size 5. Compilation speed. I don't think those last two have much of an impact, but the first three are the ones you want to adjust to your use c

You may have misread, what I do is I keep the 5 latest versions of the kernel the distro ships and I delete snapshots which depend on kernels older than those 5. I could keep all the kernels and snapshots, but I don't have that much st
