"the floored note before its clean twin" People using AI like this should be run out of their jobs.

Yeah. Some of the tree is a mess, could try to ocr those bits. It's on the roadmap. :) I will say I have some feelings about Wayland and how hard it makes some stuff I do. I'm visually impaired and have a whole stack of tools. But

Yes. It works really well with Firefox. Chrome is basically a big blank, could expose the Chrome a11y tree but would have to turn on developer / debug mode or whatever which has downsides. It's really nice for Firefox and GTK apps

Yes, they do. But you'll get 5 responses saying you're doing something wrong.

I get the Apple suspicion, but there's great Zoom functionality on every Apple device I've used. Also color invert, screen reader, and a whole rack of other a11y features. I agree that it's the nicest thing about the company.

It's not your intention, but it is functionally what you suggested. First, we've had these distros, about 5 of them. They're very hard to maintain and are all abandoned now. SOme of these were long-running projects but scale

You're confused if that's what you think about the blogger. I know this guy and he's the most DIY person to almost a farcical degree. You try booting into a distro without your monitor attached and then contribute a patch, st

I like that this article isn't just a bunch of GNOME hate. But I freely admit to being frustrated that this switch is being forced when they're still developing basic accessibility functionality for GNOME. Once I switch to Wayland

Someone's been writing a great series on accessibility for the blind in Linux https://fireborn.mataroa.blog/blog/i-want-to-love-linux-it-d...

I was thinking about doing something like this. I write a lot of boilerplate about "ok we need to discuss before you implement, ask clarifying questions" so it doesn't go rushing ahead.

Only games that seem to have escaped this in my memory are Disco Elesium and Planescape Torment I'm leaving out interactive fiction but there's some very good writing in that niche.

But you wouldn't post your google search either.

I'm interested. But I think the sync story outside of iCloud needs to be fleshed out.

What a missed oppurtunity to fire that extra person. Maybe the AI could also figure out how to do taxes and then everyone in the office could be out a job.

You can also just sit in the corner and never make anything. So what?

Yes, the imminent is a high bar.

If you're curious, spend some time with it. I think Emacs rewards a deep dive, it's a unique piece of software. Make sure to try org mode and magit and to run through the built-in tutorial. There is also a built-in tutorial for el

It's a local minima. The big journals were bought up in the 70s and 80s and scientists were hoisted on their own prestige petard. I get the Chesterton's fence thing but this is not a case of that.

I guess I kind of disagree. Some projects might pull in 50-800 deps, and then they will run on servers with utilities written by folks. Who are you supposed to thank and who not? You could literally thank thousands of people after writing a

It's significantly better, but very area dependent. Some routes can still be very dangerous and it's not to the standard of many European cities. Still, you might be pleasantly surprised.

I use nasal snuff, it seems much less addictive.

Seems likely there are cleanup and repair mechanisms in play and outpacing those mechanisms would create a nonlinear threshold effect.

It's plants you need a fancy setup for. Also, the microbiome thing, surprisingly, isn't universal, a lot of animals have no stomach microbiome to speak of. https://www.theatlantic.com/science/archive/2020

They're 92% accurate. Sounds good until you realize that's a false plagiarism accusation in every 20 person class.

So what are people using now instead of "crystalization"? This kind of written language doesn't change very quickly. It's not TikTok.
