What the fuck did I just read? What an absolute idiotic mishmash of words to throw up. All remote jobs will be replaced for 2$/hour in 2 years? And then what? We all die and now only 3 companies control all the labor in the world and w

Let me also recommend babashka and it's task runner too! If my tasks are simple enough, bash or make will do but for serious projects, specially lispy ones, babashka is amazing.

I like the idea of astro, but never really used it. My main concern is. Does v7 mean that there have been 7 breaking changes thus far? So if I started my project on v1, I had to revise it 6 times to date? If yes, then this instability is a

I really, really wish we can focus on schemacs so we have a scheme based emacs. 1. Scheme is much much nicer and more powerful than elisp 2. More speed and multi threading 3. (i think) better extensibility https://codeberg.org&#x

Sidenote: Although JSON is very common, I argue EDN is the best data format out there.

True. But for things that they all can do, normal scripting (replacing bash/powershell, etc.), creating CLI and TUI apps, I would like to do a comparison of them. 1. which one is more pleasant to write 2. which one has the better echo

Jobs and market have a huge factor of 1. politics 2. synergy Almost the only reason that python is popular and people do everything with it is synergy. The only reason that javascript is eating the world and any web dev has to know it, and

This is a great comparison and I've been wondering about it for a while. Between babashka, janet(i discovered it just now), fennel, guile. Which one would be a better scripting language? Please tell me you experience, and if you are i

Hi, writer of the post here. Love to hear your opinions and further guidance on this matter. Also, if the website is not available, it's because of another blackout :)

No, This is different. In "normal" filtering situations, we can connect to most VPNs and do our stuff. When blackouts like these happen, EVERYTHING is blocked. It gets almost impossible to connect to a VPN. They have advanced tech

Well this is no replacement for them! The monitors you mention are from 700$ (Dasung 13k is 750USD currently) up to 2000USD. This is an old tablet you maybe have lying around or can get for 200USD maybe? And this is more than a monitor. the

I don't know how to do what you are describing, but right now, the drawing is OK. it's not instantaneous but good enough for me, not creating artworks. just doodles and scribbles. I just don't look at the tablet screen for dr

It's text on the E-ink screen mostly, be it in the browser, a plain text file, Logseq, Obsidian etc. But sometimes simple writing can be done too. I wouldn't suggest writing code because of the high latency. Most of my work is rea

I've been using this solution for about 4 days now. It's not meant to be used as your main monitor. I use it only when I want to read something I or someone else has written. I think it's also good for simple writing too. But

We are not lawyers. I don't care what their "parent" company is legally. In practice, IBM influences and affects every single decision of these projects/companies. So yes, It is their parent company. Just look at what t

With systemD, the alternatives have a curve because so much IBM money and monopolization has gone into it. But systems using OpenRC(alpine) or SysV(MX linux, Devuan) work great in my experience. there are other init systems like runit (void

They do have endless resources. They are an IBM company. If people choose to work for IBM without getting payed, that's kind of their problem.
