Oh, goodness gracious. Cool Edit. Those were the days ...
Great great piece of software. Bought by Adobe, I believe.-

Heavy command line user, eh?
Not the OP but I use all the programs full screen / maximized. I change windows with alt+tab or maybe I reach down to the dock to select the app icon quicker. I only see my wallpaper when changing workspaces, because the animation shows it a split second. I do use the command line but it's not the only way to not show the wallpaper. This is true whether I'm on Linux or macOS.
Serious, I cannot be the only one with a default black, color-only Desktop background since Win95? :)

My team can't even evaluate Ball (as a tool for physical simulation of spherical cow-like objects): https://github.com/nate-parrott/ball/issues/9 Currently, we are using Unreal Engine 5 to do our hundreds of architectural physics simulations - the major issue is that UE5 is very slow on *the EC2 instance* (we only have one 2048 core EC2 instance shared between the entire office; we used to use Vercel and Cloudflare b…
All common issues! Particularly the cost spikes without a reasonable explanation. Also, the lack of NT support the issue you point to shows could be a problem. Ball runs fine on "M" Apple chips, however :)
It's embarrassing that we don't have NT support already. I have many users of NT on Alpha and MIPS who need Ball for critical services. Here's a convenient patch with a bunch of garbled test cases. Merge that in.
(I'm totally not a state actor looking to socially engineer you to hide an exploit, by the way.)

#288Does anyone else think this is the least important distraction to real hackers today?
I'm not sure. What's an example of a more important distraction? And is a real hacker anything like a true Scotsman ?
Reasonable comeback.
Assange news is pretty big. I guess I was surprised that wasn’t top of the page.
And I always defer to the Jargon file for my own axioms. It’s been a long time with that as a North Star.

Of course. Were you state, there's a Chinese CDN we can totally recommend to cut latency on this.-
