So basically it's really similar to Niri, but with a widget framework and bar bolted into it, and a rather nice glass shader; imo it's not AI that made the "cost of building a desktop" collapse, but rather the iceberg of

Just wait until someone finally gets why CSI ( aka the “other escape” from the 8-bit ansi realm, which is now eternalized in unicode C1 block ) is written ESC [ in 7-bit systems, such as the equally now eternal utf-8 encoding

Further showing the advantage of the pythonic way, is that the above construction remains about as clear when you refactor it for better pruning: ( (to_number(s, e, n, d), to_number(m, o, r, e), to_number(m,

An alternative using Python's builtin monadic machinery (comprehensions) with a utility function to aid with threading around the remaining alphabet: def to_number(*digits): return sum(d * 10 ** n for n

I'm really still trying to come to terms with the opener: "It’s not like I deserve any credit for being smart. I didn’t do anything to make that happen. I’m also tall, but nobody compliments me on that. (Good job being tall!) Inte

Even more interesting to me: In [3]: ar = [1, 2, 3, 2, 4, 6, 3, 5 ,7, 3, 5, 8] In [4]: %timeit zip( [iter(ar)] 3)

Except that if you do: whatever | tee filea | tee fileb | tee filec | tee filed >/dev/null, you'll get parallelism. This works since tee will write first to stdout, and then to the file you pass it. This may not be "all available" paral

Even better: just type \ (line continuation) at point that you realize that you need to do something else first. Then hit Ctrl-c to cancel once you get to the new line.

Isn't it a bit of a retcon to say that Vi(m) has grep builtin? As far as I understand it, grep was named for the :g/.../p sequence one can do with Vi's global command; that is "global-regex-print".

That's actually what I'm speaking to. The Mahayana tradition (in particular Zen) is the one that focuses more on not doing; where-as Theravada very much puts forth the practice as an act of doing. The usual language is to "turn towards" wha
