    For the few times where I had to speak to someone about topics I don't care much about, I found that simply asking questions to learn about them ( as well as the person I'm speakin…

    I concur. This would have been awesome anywhere. The fact that this is in Japan is not surprising, although it's clear that if one were to go check out a lifesize Totoro statue, ha…

    Why do you say they "push away the inevitable"? Why would it be inevitable to have quality apps without AI integration? I would even argue that in a lot of cases, no AI integration…

    I'm really not sure: it's highly specialized to scrape the pages of that particular course and output it in my own HTML and CSS classes. Luckily for me, their format is quite stand…

    I was just thinking about this yesterday. A few weeks or months ago I started learning something new from an online course. Because I like using Anki to help me remember, I started…

    When using `dd` I always verbally say "`if` is input file, because I want to take data from and `of` is output file, because I want that data to overwrite ". Never have I ever had …

    I said "power" as in "exponent", so we basically have the same understanding, I just do without the triangle.

    Ironically, that notation, which I just discovered, confuses me more than anything else. Logs clicked for me when someone online said "amongst all the definitions we have for logs,…

    This seems interesting. I've been thinking lately of re-installing a tilling WM on my daily driver because I have a wide screen and I spend more time rearranging and searching for …

    Legislation couldn't have foreseen a future where such basic features were depending on having power. Yet here we are.
