You can use artist mode in Emacs as an equivalent. It's really great for box plots and diagrams.

I didn't mean the throughput of the network, I meant the throughput of the calculations. Yes, the latency is the issue.

I thought about this too, but the throughput over a network is incredibly slow. It’s not usable for interactive use.

Why did you do this?

Many features appear broken for me on Firefox. I was unable to change the dates, and it was unclear to me as to how one would remove instruments from their comparison after they were added. I clicked "X selected", and then nothing

Sounds exactly like my experience.

What does AutoPope mean though? The author glosses over this implying it means to pontificate- however- I have not seen this definition anywhere.

It doesn’t even make sense though, shouldn’t it be DÖCH?

It’s not clickbait, given enough power you can charge quickly.

It makes sense, for example, if you use turmeric in a rice dish, would you say it is artificially colored? In a sense rice isn’t yellow, but it is a natural dye.

The article makes some interesting points about the correlation between computer usage in schools and test scores. What I would be interested in is the unmetered computer usage outside of schools. Are students with restricted access to so-c

MV3 has made it significantly harder. Good luck blocking YouTube ads, for example.

Sure, in a sense, but “wiki” actually just means “quick”.

The information that the user did something "right" should be responsive next to where the user initiated the action- not in a random corner.

Toasts are a great way to lose information. They are a terrible design and should not be used. They distract the user, are not dense with information, and provide no value. If a message is important enough for the user to read, it should be

After reading the article, the technical merits of `jj` are completely unclear.

Cool idea, what model does it use to predict my next window?

Yes, in practice this increases price transparency. Imagine everything could be monetized. They could charge for access to the bathroom, or water. What is the minimum expectation of what is included in the price of a ticket?

Destroying future children in favor of other future children? Any decision we make does this. Every child is an XOR.

I meant the whole design. The hub gear is no different than on any other bicycle and can be reliable.

This design is unstable and expensive to produce with a complicated in wheel transmission. It is novel, but almost certainly more expensive and less reliable than existing designs.

Javascript is Lisp in C's clothes? On what basis? Also what does Lua have to do with Lisp? It has no Lisp syntax whatsoever.

If you think you understand software, think again. We are building complex machines upon towers of sand!

Interesting way to apply concepts from the terminal to the GUI. Looking at this from my naieve perspective, it seems that all of this is doing is emulating the accessibility of the terminal. You have an easier way to run programs with per-d

What a very novel UI! I like it a lot! It makes a lot of sense for people to cascade files left to right, especially when people have more widescreen monitors.

Perhaps, but `burg` and `berg` have two different meanings in German as well, so perhaps that is where the noise comes from.
