Are you an Engul user? Syllabic scripts for English are rare. Usually people use letters.

Well, I haven't made that up myself - I got the idea from linguistics books - and from people that lived there for a long time. And those linguists were very clear that the language came first and then syllable script was bolted on.

When learning a bit of Japanese to me it was quite obvious that the script was most likely intentionally left (or made) complicated. By using a normal alphabet that actually fits to the structure of Japanese language it would be just anothe

Yes it does. In some distributions receiving calls was a problem (they slept too deep and woke up too slow). With Mobian for me it now works stable enough to be used as a daily driver.

Well, it works fine as a phone. With Mobian it is stable enough for me to be a daily driver. When I need performance I usually turn to real computers or specialized gadgets.

I'm on Windows. Other OS may differ. I experimented a lot with load times - and compared HDD, SSD, RAM-Disk. I wrote a small program that loads everything from a big code-repository into RAM. The first time HDD and SSD and RAM-Disk mak

Improvements in build-time are very valuable to me. But I'm not sure if a cloud would help me much. Synching can easily eat up 10s. Also my tools are very unique (including a parser that I wrote myself). To be faster than local a cloud

I recently experimented with a ram disk. Practically it didn't change anything. OS-caching seems to already be clever enough and once the OS has figured out that some directories are important anything in there seemed to get done in RA

Great news... Compile time or a clean build? I use similar tooling (older version... :-)). And I'm starting to evaluate what's going on with those new versions.

by WildParser 5y ago
Comparing compile times is done rarely. I sometimes tried to google some comparisons, but didn't find much. For a typical 1,5 MLOC project my clean build times are sitting around 40 seconds. I think that's pretty good, but I don&#

I don't know about China, but the whole science around COVID seems to have a really strong cultural component that before was totally unfamiliar to me. When looking at some German Epidemiologist blog I found something like: "Next

That keyboard was fantastic. I hope the PinePhone Keyboard will be able to reach this level.

I once took one of these online-tests for spotting deep fakes. By marking anything that has reflections in the eyes as fake I got only 1 answer wrong (the real guy there looked really strange).

And still nobody bothered to check what kind of trend-changes are visible in the epidemiological curves around the time of masking. People never look at "date of death" or "infection date" all they care about is "re

I use Mobian on the Pinephone as a daily driver. Other distributions I tried were not stable.

I don't really know what those people in physics do, but as a mathematician my definition of a time-crystal would be a 4-dimensional discrete structure. You have some 4-dimensional symmetries. Just rotating in 3D is a bit boring. Inter

I'm not very optimistic about avoiding a "Dark Age". Rational thinking and the idea to look at data seems to be completely foreign to most people I know. Higher educated people seem to absorb and repeat dogmas and propaganda

A few patterns about rationality I have seen a lot recently: False rationality - People claim to be rational while touting some dogma they learned somewhere. Not even looking at any data. And when given data or counter-examples they just ig

I liked the Celestron Nexstar 6SE. Weight still ok and not too small. Something to tinker with a bit and quite easy to use.

Good that people sometimes remember that a more modern base for physics would be nice. Doing electrodynamics without using alternating products and differential forms feels so wrong...

Problem is - by removing sane people the thing will become even more insane... And most people there are unable to notice - they form democratic majority - nowadays things can accelerate downhill very fast.

Even more disturbing is that people outright refuse to take a look at numbers to check what measures actually did. Just mentioning datasources and asking people to look can attract a lot of downvotes. People just suppose the data might poin

The number of of actively infected non-quarantined people is relevant. Take a look at RKI-dashboard for Jena. This Jena paper is a serious fake. I think mask measures are not working correctly - all the masks are way too dirty - effects are

Take a look at the data from RKI dashboard for Jena. The number of actively infectious people in April that were not already quarantined is pathetic. https://experience.arcgis.com/experience/478220a4c454480e823...

Very well written. I always preferred mathematics to chess, because the competitive aspect of chess always seemed to hinder collaboration. Seeing the same lack of collaboration in university was really disappointing. Friendly people listene

Do lockdowns help? A lot of countries with hard lockdowns had really bad curves. A slow fire maybe sometimes burns better. A place where everybody gets infected can maybe be more dangerous for visitors when you increase the time the infecti

Is it seasonal because of natural yearly weather seasons, or is it because of the growth dynamics?! Most curves look a lot like an explosion that burns out locally too fast to sustain a continuous fire. This could lead to some kind of seaso

Also getting your hand at good data isn't so easy nowadays. E.g. reporting date can be very different from actual date of death. My area once lagged 3 months. Interesting to read about a peak at the start of November. Some regions of G
