    I think we both fell in the exact same rabbit hole started in the "Immich" post today! By the way I tried to look at the code to see where it was defined and, with difficulties I e…

    Yes basically, it's not the same dev yet sway is heavily inspired by i3 and works with i3 config files. As you wrote i3 is x11-only and sway is wayland.

    Presumably this for now has only been seen for a specific tv client API that yt-dlp use and not all youtube videos (well, https://github.com/yuliskov/SmartTube/issues/4444 also saw…

    Not him but because your answer surprised me I chose to reply: at 34 it is also something I always wondered. Becoming obese always seemed a little extreme to me and I fail to imagi…

    A particularly ugly but useful feature of "const enum" (sadly, the "const" flavor of enums are not referred to in this documentation), is that it's the only way to declare a compil…

    I read the README.md of the project but I'm still not sure: What's the expected usage of this? How does the outputed WASM code then interacts with a runtime (and with which, is it …

    I did not want to annoy anybody, I was just answering the "live very comfortably" part. Yes I lived in Paris 15th arrondissement a little more than two years ago (for like 4 years?…

    I have the same back-button issues on both Firefox and Chrome (on linux if it matters) when going to this website. Multiple pages in history are e.g. just black screens.

    By what I understood of your reply, everything is a measure and I fail to see how something cannot be measured. Or perhaps I wasn't clear in what I meant initially? > In which case…

    Small nitpick about the website: I'm one of those people that randomly select chunks of text as I'm reading it. It seems that your website make the selection background and text th…
