    True, but don't you think the FBI director should be held to higher standards of security hygiene than average people? Because I'm interpreting your tone as "it could happen to any…

    Apologies, I should have been more specific. "Mature" was a reference to its feature set, not its stability. It runs fine in my setup. I meant things like automatic resolution and …

    I've been using Hyprland now for 4 months and it's my first tiling WM experience. I absolutely love it and actually donated 10 euro to the dev(s?). Having said that: This is simply…

    In this context I can also highly recommend the Sara Walker episodes on Lex Fridman: https://youtu.be/-tDQ74I3Ovs?si=1m0JV8gZEl4WFedG https://youtu.be/SFxIazwNP_0?si=R7yZroSNbw5Jjc…

    Very cool! Like others here I've done something similar about a decade ago [0], but only with inheritance and mutation. This was C++ and Qt. [0] https://github.com/jeroenvlek/evopi…

    As a freelancer myself I go one step further and actually charge hourly rates. This granularity helps both with short workshops and fulltime projects because with the latter I'm of…

    Strongly agree, yet debates about improving the ergonomics of the language, for which there clearly "is a market", seem to be hindered by those zealous activists. A minority, I'm c…

    They really are in a class of their own. So smart, eloquent and original. And I have to admit that I don't even get 100% of all references. The first two also really read like an a…
