Alternatively I’ve found it beneficial to try and clarify and further elaborate on your “opponents” reasoning. If you’re correct, then you should find the errors in their reasoning…

If I am to believe the Corruption Perception Index, which I certainly would over your unsourced blanket statement, you’re wrong and Europe is actually doing rather well at having l…

Given the required permissions I’d like to read the source code before using it, but that doesn’t seem to be available. Is this correct?

I think the point isn’t necessarily to not use chrome but to use something not based on chromium in general, which brave is, e.g. Firefox or Safari.

Lua wasn’t made for scripting video games but as a scripting language for a mining company if I remember correctly from this excellent paper[1]. I can highly recommend all the othe…

> She lamented the disappearance of the option to show only PDFs in the search results Nitpicking but this is still possible at least using ddg, google and possibly other search en…

Are you suggesting this person should’ve spent their time working on reimplementing wayland in rust instead? If so I suggest you drop all the projects you’re currently working on a…

If there’s no deadline there’s no problem I think to stop working on it for a while. Do you have any other projects or things to work on? Then work on those instead for a bit. Then…

This doesn't seem viable in practice, determining how much polution a product causes for every product you tax is impractical and although not guaranteed I would think it likely th…

Either way, it’s easier if you’ve got the source code as well.

Although you could make this argument in this context I don’t think it is valid. I’m quite certain that someone who’s trying to figure out what some obscure service is doing on the…

Whereas on closed source you’d have to do all of that and probably a good deal of reverse engineering on top of that. That’s unfortunately not something which it necessarily makes …

Thanks for the interesting tidbits!

Although I personally haven’t got any experience with linux internals (insofar not needed as a user) I’d think https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ might be a good place to star…

You might want to google for Library Genesis and see if you can find them there to compare these and buy one of them afterwards.

I still accidentally try to use these on my linux machine, that’s one thing I really do miss. One consolation is that I can still use them in my shell :) Weirdly enough I never acc…

I don’t think it’s influenced by js: http://www.lua.org/doc/hopl.pdf

At least trying three times seems like a very good thing to me. Although you might want to try a fourth time, Git really isn't that hard I think but rather quite opaque and easier …

I'm no expert, but I believe it's indeed what they're already doing: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Genetically_modified_bacteria#... But if I could make a guess I'd say that it in …

That's right, currently reading it for my uni course :)

There are quite a lot of KDE apps which aren't that well known which together cover a large swathe of desktop usage and are quite nice. Most of them are here: https://kde.org/appli…

As an open-source alternative to typora I can suggest Marktext https://github.com/marktext/marktext which I believe is on par with typora features. Don't be alarmed by the fact tha…

Taking a rectangle select screenshot using ⌘⇧⌃4 (CMD + Shift + Ctrl + 4) will put the screenshot in your clipboard on macOS

⌘⇧5 (CMD + Shift + 5) doesn't do anything on my macOS 10.13.6 system, ⌘⇧⌃4 (CMD + Shift + Ctrl + 4) is the default shortcut to take a rectangle screenshot and store it in the clipb…
