I am a bit surprised that I had to look hard for someone to mention Ghostty in the comments.

Every time, over the years, that there has been some kind of headline saying renewables have overtaken fossil fuels, when you look at it a bit more closely there is always a big 'but'. For example, it was compared to coal (not t

The only medication I know about that some people on the spectrum take are antipsychotics and that's for specific situations, but maybe if you're in that situation life seems even more like a dystopian text based adventure game.

I love it, I have been meaning to put together a similar simulation to demonstrate the effects of interruptions and context switches on developers. Something like the following: - a game or puzzle which requires working memory, like matchin

Fortunately it mentions early on in the article that this is related to an Olympus camera so I'm guessing this has something to do with the OM system's flavor of Olympus's proprietary ORF format.

The fun part is that in some cases just listing the iptables rules with an iptables -L will cause it to load the conntrack module and the default max for this is very low for anything that is a DNS server or perform a lot of DNS lookups.

I think there's probably a case for some regulation to force at least a minimum set of open standards, because that would make it possible to e.g. switch between systems based on intermittent renewable generation etc.

When our Fujitsu aircon was installed the installer said it's worth a lot of money to be able to make it wifi controllable. When I looked into what the components cost to make it do that, I saw what he meant. Fortunately I was able

The thumbnail of the video looked very much like a several decades old apartment building in Spain that I stayed in not that long ago. The whole development really just looks like some European neighbourhoods, which is a bit strange but a

The version I got never portrayed it as something that's sequential and never 'ends' at acceptance and also not specifically applicable to grieving and it's also not scientific. The way I understood it is that's it

I would love to see some social networks silently implementing something that rewrites comments in a more diplomatic manner when displayed to everyone else.

I wouldn't be surprised about this when it comes to panic disorder. Just knowing you have some emergency fast acting anti anxiety medication nearby, just in case you need it, can reduce the number of panic attacks. There's proba

I did the same thing with an alice bot on IRC. It also joined channels and only responded to private messages. It was remarkable how long some people persisted in talking to it when they thought it was a potential mating partner.

When I used to maintain a GitLab server I used to do exactly this by upgrading almost a month behind their schedule.

Serverless was always around and always had a place. It used to be a shell and sftp account on a shared Linux server where you could upload your html and cgi scripts or php files into your own Apache virtual host and get billed per hit on

I'm delighted to see the e-ink displays prices coming down, even though it's coming down a bit slowly.

I think what changed their mind was that the market changed. Mailchimp was run like a company that wanted to prevail in the market and not just grow and sell. That affected their strategy in a good way since it allowed them to spend time

I think people who fly tiny whoop quadcopters would find the description of a 1.8kg copter as 'tiny' quite amusing. I'm guessing the primary driver for the weight is the power to lift this in the thin atmosphere, secondary to

I somehow like this a lot. This looks kind of what Windows NT would have been if NT 4.0 never happened, or if OS/2 survived, or if MacOS or Windows went to a Unix kernel in the early 90s. It's a bit like the Nissan Figaro of des

The problem really at that time and even with PDAs after that like the Palm Trio was that mobile data services really sucked in most locations where these devices would potentially have done really well. The Nokia had additional problems i

I find this depends highly on where one lives. If you work somewhere where a significant chunk of the workforce are local either by growing up there or graduated there then this separation comes naturally since people have established soci

We use increasingly sophisticated models to make the same mistake they made 130 years ago when they projected the increase of horse manure.

The article itself leads with the conventional media thinking about Delta, but to me it almost feels like it's a hook to lure in both those who follow or doubt the conventional thinking in order to lead them to develop a better underst

I hear you and it's now inevitable that the news cycle will move beyond Delta soon as other variants take over from it. It's also inevitable that future dominant variants are going to be more resistant to the current vaccines as

I've been tempted to hack together a web based game. It will be some simple puzzles requiring working memory, like that addition of numbers example. It could even be word problems with multiple choice answers, but the questions has t

I think for pancreatic cancer early detection just means it gives you more time to enjoy a slightly longer bucket list. For bowel cancers however, this could potentially buy many extra years since it's currently difficult to detect ea

I guess this only works if it's used alongside proof of name and/or date of birth. I guess adding some basic biometric data like height and eye colour would have allowed venues to harvest even more personal data which is not idea

I'm happy for them. An FPV drone of mine bounced into a canal recently and the motors get attached to magnets relatively easily, but I couldn't ever find it again even while fishing for hours with a large magnet fishing magnet.
