    Exactly. It's the configuration of the atoms, not their number, that matters.

    Sure, but I thought that a successfully implemented CG'd language running on WASM would have been something worth noting.

    Maybe we read different articles? I thought the context was how it was hard to do GC in WASM currently, which is why we don't have many language choices. With that context, C# runn…

    Admittedly I only scanned the article, but I didn't see any mention of C# or Blazor. I've only fiddled with it, but it seems that (when targeting WASM) Blazor loads a (partial) .NE…

    There are non-subscription alternatives, though they differ from lightroom. I quite like Exposure[0] and although I haven't used the desktop version of RAW Power[1] its ipad app is…

    Because photographs are most powerful as a store of/trigger for memories, and my photographs are better at that than someone else's, for the most part.

    That's not my experience, and I've been writing C# since .NET 1.1. Obviously though it depends on the scale of the app. If you have 1m+ LoC, you really need to have some sort of st…

    > Just for comparison, $180k would be out of range for anyone outside the US I don't think it's too far off the mark for Australia. Mind you, that's gross. US$180 is about AU$280k.…

    This is a good point. In practice, you need to acknowledge effort, ability and outcome. If you're thinking about areas of study or work, you really want to pick something you enjoy…

    My house is wood frame, brick veneer. It was relatively cheaply built government housing back in the 40s/50s. It seems to have held up just fine with the weight of concrete tiles.

    Yeah our (concrete tile) roof is about 80 years old. The only maintenance has been replacing broken tiles after a particularly bad hail storm.

    I had a neurologist tell me that the scans he'd performed proved that there was nothing wrong with my wife, and he didn't know why she was choosing to act as though she had a neuro…

    I've added some custom instructions that have helped make chatgpt far more tolerable: - When generating code, do not provide an explanation unless I ask you to. - When generating c…

    I think the implication is that it's race warfare is a tool used by the "ruling" class to wage class warfare on the poor.

    I had someone from our diversity team say, in a meeting of 100+, that the problem that the team are trying to combat is "whiteness". This coming from a white woman who quite openly…

    They may be more diverse in terms of race and sexuality, but have very little diversity of opinion and worldview.

    One of Jung's more interesting concepts is that of enantiodromia - where things taken to extremes become their opposite. It's also a concept in the I Ching (where the "strongest" l…

    I switched to Joplin for this reason. I used to use git + text editor, but it's not the best experience on Android, and seemingly near impossible on iOS.

    I do something similar, but switched from bash/vim/markdown to Joplin a while back. I lost the immediacy of bash, but seamless syncing and editing across multiple devices, especial…

    That's an interesting observation. I can't justify why, but : feels a lot more fluid to type than gg, even though as you say, gg has less keystrokes and still keeps you on the home…

    I used to use the Ctrl-P plugin, but to be honest, these days I just use an IDE with a vim plugin. Usually if I'm in a remote terminal session, I don't have more than a few files o…

    Moderators generally aren't checking for correctness - who would have that sort of time?
