Previously, it used to be the case that if you don’t want to repair your device or upgrade your RAM you wouldn’t have used Thinkpads, as a MacBook is better at showing you websites. Now, unfortunately, not so much.

Ultra-portable is a feature, not an end goal. Netbooks’ end goal were to be portable and they failed miserably. Most people work on thinkpads, I don’t know about you, but I actually cannot think of a time where my browser, IDE plus a few ca

I’m just curious whether you know how blockstack in the “about” section of your profile relates to Bitcoin.... That’s just one of the examples illustrative of some sort of Bitcoin’s value outside being a currency - which coincidentally, has

I'm probably a niche user, but better crypto and web3 support (still cannot make firefox recognize my hardware wallet on Linux). That's the singular most important reason I switched, after many years. ... It'll raise trust if

You are incorrect. Coinbase regularly gets audited practically every other week by some random regulating body in the country. I’d say ask someone who works there, but you probably won’t as calling any Crypto exchange as ‘Bitcoin’ exchange

Interesting! But you see all of the benefits of syntax highlighting and real-time linting is about being steered towards a working code in a gradual and unmotivated way, prior to actually intending to check whether the code works... Althoug

One of the main argument for Acme was that keyboard navigation is tends to be one dimensional, whereas navigating with mouse is two dimensional. I find it curious that a higher-than-one dimensional representation of a program is not present

What's the point of defining summation methods for divergent series? Do they have any connections to any other area of mathematics or physics? Is analytic continuation of complex analysis relevant to these things? How about p-adics?

The sources, at least for engineering section, are not useful at all. Assuming this stuff is needed in the first place: Spivak's calculus, while a fantastic read, was "difficult" for motivated honors students at institutions

Does using "User-Agent switcher" or similar extensions have any effect on this functionality?

Absolutely. Either Horizontally if we all die or Vertically, given enough time if you zoom-out enough.

I'll check Daniel Shanks' book out. But the OP was interested in reaching a level where the proof of such summation is not `black magic` - at least that was my impression - which implies reaching a level considerably higher than t

Read G.H. Hardy's Introduction to Number Theory, Then possibly A Course of Pure Mathematics, also by him. Note that the level for which you're aiming, is a level wherein such summation is much closer to triviality, than it is to `

What's "L-calculus"? And what does "alternative formulations that rely not on the limit of the addition but on the limit of a multiplier" mean? Any resources?

This is happening, as a direct consequence of Stephen Wolfram's ego, not because there's something inherently wrong with Mathematica, the language (now renamed to "Wolfram language"), or the ecosystem.

As others pointed out, snippets are not macros. And in addition using macros for simple text transformation that was pointed out by @ethagnawl, below are other ideas all of which I use on an almost daily basis: 1. Macros can be shared with

Editor macros are one of the reasons you'll want to use Emacs or Vim instead of notepad. They're just like linguistic macros: You'll never know you need one if you haven't used one. However unlike linguistic macros -wher

Could you explain more about integrating acme ideas into a tiling wm, or possibly share your dotfiles? I've tried doing that with i3, but the window manager has less than optimal mouse support to say the least, and wmii is dead.
