> Rubik's cube 3D model Google had a doodle way back when... That let you play the cube on the search page. I found it hosted here [1] although I'm sure they have a doodles archive. Didn&…

Lower rungs are definitely not content working 40 hours a week. They work crazy amounts (multiple jobs even!) just to get to the upper rungs of society. I support the labour laws limiting an employer …

Autonomous ground vehicles were funded by the DARPA grand challenge, and the motivation was explicitly military[1] [1] Rational subsection of the Background section (section I) in this pdf: https:&#x…

> war, moon You cannot be serious, the whole thing was called the space race for a reason. Space tech has always always been primarily a military venture, and it remains so to this day. > Malari…

You're basically talking about the shift system. A works for 20hrs a week, B works for 20hrs a week. A spends more time with spouse(A), who does the same at their workplace, and B spends more tim…

Some 4k per second on my laptop if you use git non-porcelain commands directly.

I really like kitty. The customisability is off the charts, especially the remote control feature and the kittens feature. You can do almost anything with a combination of those two. At the same time,…

Ghostty supports kitty graphics protocol for those interested.

Just read further into the history section of the same page, you don't have to be obtuse and post the full form of the company, everyone here knows this. The world is nuanced, and this is not red…

And it's a JV with DoE meaning all the usual security rules and in practice the dutch are completely firewalled from everything, they don't even have access to the EUV tech.

It's a classic

No, python slice syntax on lists returns a new list. Of course, the slice syntax on your own classes can do just about anything using operator overloading.

EUV machines are not europe's to sell. It's all american owned IP and the "EUV part" itself is american manufactured.

I really like the idea. Especially the idea where you return different RpcTargets based on the "context", that's really quite nice. Not just for authentication and such, but for represe…

I think this kind of tracing-caused complexity only arises when the language doesn't let you easily represent and manipulate code as data, or when the language doesn't have static type infor…

PonyORM is my favourite python ORM. Along with https://pypi.org/project/pony-stubs/ , you get decent static typing as well. It's really quite something.…

Well my suspicions were right: https://x.com/PressSec/status/1969495900478488745 …

Agreed, last paragraph especially. Even if it's OK now, I would not undertake 20year debt when the d2/dt^2 of all immigrant high salary labour related numbers is negative. However, being mor…

I'm seeing a mismatch between what was said in news articles and by the govt officials as well as trump in the video, and what is written in the official order[1] Considering your background, wha…

> such a stupid approach What do you think of this alternate one? Don't make H1-B employer-specific. That way, they automatically have to pay market rates to the guy since otherwise you would …

I like KDE, just not the defaults which I think are horrific. I had my fair share of ricing linux in general, and have done my rounds through all kinds of window manager and desktop environments and t…

I'd argue culture solely defines the language. Is there a full library ecosystem of stuff written like the json parser you shared, which is as complete as the enterprisey library ecosystem? Simil…

Yes. (In India) we recently converted our SFH into a 4 storey building. We were forced by building code to A) add solar panels covering 1/3rd of the terrace B) use it for all non-floor-space elec…

Exactly. This is what I want all my subscriptions to do. In UPI (I know I know...) there is an autopay system. Your single UPI app has a single page with all your subscriptions. You can cancel or do w…

How do you filter encrypted channels from the noise? For example, say the criminals now communicate by having a browser extension write e2ee encrypted todo items on a shared todo list app.

Is this how it's measured? Just to see if I got it right: The atmosphere directly above the tsunami will have a different TEC (total electron count) pattern due to the upward acoustic waves creat…

Interesting. I have 165 total. Could be because I use Google oAuth whenever it's available.

How do you have 1300 passwords? Sounds like a lot. Come to think of it though, I have no idea how many I have.
