You can maybe, trust the user to handle it's own certificate in their own devices? Though I admit requiring attestation is probably a good default.

Because it increases US workers relative (to other countries) wage. Though with current automation levels this may be a lesser problem.

This is beautiful, incredibly sane, and awesome reference material. There's no way I'd use a 3500 lines init.el or most of the extras, but somehow I feel like a good chunk of the stuff here should be upstreamed if we one day consi

This is good and means no one can impersonate you using your phone number, but doesn't solve the recurring costs issue, you still need to buy a new number when someone registers yours, and every financial transaction puts you at more p

And what happens when the next guy buys that same number and registers on Signal? Phone numbers are recurring costs. And to keep a truly private one you must keep paying without ever disclosing personal info and that is really hard. Signal

We definitely need more humility. For starters, not to casually dismiss beliefs held by millennia due to some artifacts without even specifying them.

>On paper it should be a good thing Not really. Most people have terribly low time preference. Democracy for example is a very bad idea when you account for that (read Hoppe for a detailed explanation). Public company ownership is much b

FWIW, all of those links compare Rust to languages created before 1980, and are all projects largely and unusually independent of the crates ecosystem and where dynamic linking does not matter. If you're going to use a modern language

Disservice? Rust is taking over the world while they still have nothing to show basically (Servo, the project Rust was created for, is behind ladybird of all things). Every clueless developer and their dog thinks Rust is like super safe and

Author is definitely correct in pointing out the incentives for companies to buy hardware. What the article misses is that there is in fact a reasonable economic incentive to not invest in software even if LLMs were not an economic bubble.

Definitely not it's purpose. Avy can be used to select a word, line, or region. One action is move to it. But it can also, in it's own words, copy, yank, zap to, transpose, teleport, kill, mark, ispell, org-refile, and custom acti

Just type C-h t (help-with-tutorial) and work your way through it.

It's more about allowing a-library-fits-all than forcing it. You don't have to ask for io, you just should, if you are writing a library. You can even do it the Rust way and write different libraries for example for users who want

Why didn't crates.io maintainers apply the patch themselves? NPM does meddle with packages when an incident happens like they did with left-pad.

If you're having to use Caps lock as control, modal editing is probably worth it. The one thing that makes non-modal editing far superior to modal, for me, is how easy it is to reach my Control key, as the palm of my left hand is alway

It's one of the best designed packages I've seen. Except 'repeat' that was horribly broken last time I checked but can be fixed by using the repeat-fu package. Manages to cleanly implement the kakoune model in an incredi

>I have AI accounts and sling prompts all day long some days This wasn't hard to guess. Beware of your interactions with LLMs creeping in when talking to humans. Best of luck! And I suggest you take heed of Simon's advice.

FWIW, GnuCash supports multiple backends, sqlite, a couple of popular sql servers, and I believe the default backend is XML.

I think this will be very successful. The Rust community seems very hellbent in achieving success at all costs, this includes making every software permissively licensed, while a lot of foundational software is still copyleft. This will lik

For me it was stable 120fps on firefox at 2200 and 60fps at 3200, using 200W in my RX 6750XT. Chromium hit below 60fps at around 4000 and below 30fps at 6000 but used my integrated intel GPU all the time.

How exactly is Linux becoming popular going to make my EXWM setup suck? To be fair, if it does get a large market share, some company is probably going to take MS's role and make a distro that sucks but many people use. But that should
