Computer science has many fields and those even differ per country. Theoretical computer science is only one part of it. There are also many specialisations.

But you make a good point about topology and knot theory.

And they don't even understand their phones.

Don't they still do development on mailing lists? That will keep contributors out for sure 👍

I don't support CrApple (no /s)

Yac their wealth and watch them squeal.

Does the new one look better or something? Or is it just the fact that it's AI-written that's getting people excited?

I was forcefully switched to Wayland a year or so ago and didn't even notice until I tried to run some xdotool stuff. The average user doesn't know and doesn't care about X.ORG.

And of course all the issues are typical C issues 😄 It will take some time to get rid of that language, but time can't pass fast enough.

So this is going to be a game mechanic?

Once Motorola releases their phone with GrapheneOS, maybe other vendors might be willing to release phones upon which GrapheneOS can run. But there are alternatives like CalyxOS

Or don't take your real phone with you. Memorise a tinyURL that takes you to a place you can restore your original phone contents or even just a password vault, which allows you to reconnect to your important services once you have access to a clean phone again.

Israel happily supports surveillance of Arabs. No surprise there.

Just start calling for remigration and the money will come flowing.

Or call Gentoo a block chain OS and the cryptobros will come running.

In 8 hours it uses 20% of the battery. When Windows or Mac are put to sleep, the damn things can sleep for a week! This is the case with Linux on multiple laptops.

Is there some kind of manipulation going by ring -1 that detects Linux is running? Is Linux not respecting some procedure and kissing a step?

Context is this issue at neovim [dot] github [dot] io: https://github.com/neovim/neovim.github.io/issues/501

The neovim website has an impressions section, under which there's an impression by DHH:

"Full-screen Neovim looks cool as hell!” — DHH

Multiple people want that quote removed.

For those who don't know, DHH (creator of the Omarchy Linux distro) is seen as a problematic individual by many in the Linux & OSS community:

It's that time again and I'd like to make my life easier. I have multiple CVs for different positions and in different languages. Recruiters and companies want the CVs in PDF.

My current workflow is to sequentially edit the .odts (wording then layout because things move around depending on length), maybe the style, then save and export to PDF. That can take a while, so here I am, wondering if it can be sped up by simply editing a text file and generating CVs with certain themes.

Or what your workflow is. Maybe this isn't worth automating...

Solution

Finally went with RenderCV (thank you @bert@sh.itjust.works), which also runs locally. YAML in, PDF, PNG, HTML, etc. out. It comes with 10 themes or so. Haven't looked at what it take to create my own (I'm lazy).

Contender was JSON Resume, but the site is down and I tried it years ago but never got it to work properly.

Equivalents because VSCode and its forks are not an equivalent.

TL;DR Jetbrains is getting worse, more like VSCode. I want out to something as powerful but not VSCode like (which is worse).

Jetbrains has been chasing VSCode's popularity to the detriment of its own product.

The modal commit dialog is now opt-in, behind a nearly hidden, advanced parameter and will be removed in the not so distant future. This was part of their effort to make the UI "leaner" and more like VSCode so now Jetbrains IDEs look more like it.

Some keyboard shortcuts have also had to be changed to be more like VSCode.

Jetbrains used to have a good docker integration, but that's either unmaintained or undergoing work to support dev-containers better - something that jetbrains practically had nearly a decade ago, which allowed you to code on another server (remote development).

AI Assistant and Junie (their coding agents which I have to use for work) have consistently been behind the curve and just keep getting worse. They have 2 separate products for agentic development and can't decide which to keep, so they duplicate efforts and fail at both. Now I'm asking my employer to just give me Cursor like the rest of the team, so I don't have to put up with this Jetbrains crap.

Privately, AI it's non-starter anyway, but my guess is that Jetbrains is also focussing more development efforts on that than actually fixing existing bugs.

I've found this very good website. Many torrents are unofficial and created by the website staff. Some torrents are official from the project maintainers.

I have been seeding torrents on me VPS for some time. Since I don't use most of the bandwidth. Now I have purchased an HDD IPv6-only VPS in the same datacenter to use as NAS and seed more torrents.

If you've got some spare bandwidth and disk space, you can seed the softwares you like.

MKBHD is a tech youtuber (maybe the biggest?) who normally uses a Mac, but he got a Framework 13 Pro with Ubuntu and has been using it for a few weeks now.

I've been testing VPN services and somehow every one with a client has written their own. Proton, Windscribe, IVPN, Mullvad, AirVPN, NordVPN, and the list goes on.

Don't these services all do the same thing? Connect to a server to get a list of servers, then use WireGuard or OpenVPN to make a connection, and have some fancy stuff like split tunneling or a killswitch. It should just take configuration by adding profiles per service and it should be possible to use the same client.

What am I missing?

A newly filed patent from researchers at Ohio University could help develop more effective treatments for disorders related to growth hormone, thanks to a discovery that reveals exactly how a groundbreaking drug works at the molecular level.
