Gnome and KDE are in the ports tree and kept very up to date. Everything there basically works. Most supported hardware just works out of the box with very little tinkering.

Of course there is less hardware supported than Linux and support can lag a bit, since there are few people writing drivers. But modern Thinkpads work quite well.

All that said, I have found Gnome to feel a little slow on OpenBSD compared to running on on the same hardware on Linux. So on OpenBSD I mostly use dwm, which feels super fast.

Generally most everything you want can be found in the ports tree.
LyX has been a constant in my life and I'm very thankful for it. It's such well-written piece of software, it still makes me happy every time I use it!

I remember reading their (excellent) tutorial on a laptop with a 700 MHz CPU and a few hundred MB of RAM in 2005 or so.

This reminded me to donate to them - their page is down, but you can send a donation via PayPal to donations@lyx.org.
It's still interesting as it reflects that despite 60,000 images, there's a very small amount of data that the network actually learns.

The total entropy in 10 images (even carefully engineered ones) is very low in comparison to the full data-set.

> Is D ever a better choice? When?

Probably not, very small community, few resources, etc. …

> Why do we act like you can only pick one, when IPC and FFI and microservices mean you can split the difference if a language is only best for a portion of your project?

FFI is a huge pain and pretty slow in golang if not already done for you.
IPC & microservices do have a lot of overhead, so you probably don't want use it for e.g. your text parser. It also makes it harder to use established knowledge in another language.

> If I'm starting greenfield, when should I pick C++ over Rust?

- Do you have experienced C++ developers/are you one?

- Is your environment geared for C/C++ code, e.g. kernel modules or RTOSes, maybe game development?

- Do you have dependencies that strongly expect you to use a certain language, e.g. QT or (less so) GTK? Might be a pain to use with Rust

> If I'm looking at C++ alternatives, how would I choose between Rust and Golang?

- Rust is more speed/correctness focused while Go feels a bit like a faster scripting language. So something that might have started in python is probably a better match for go (a webserver, something script-like)

- Go really isn't meant for constrained environments (although there do exist solutions) like small linux IOT devices or even bare-metal stuff,

I feel like Go & Rust are pretty good complements and while you can do a lot of things with both, they are clearly very different. For some examples, with what I'd recommend, not necessarily what I'd use, since I do have a huge fondness for Rust, not so much for go

- Normal web backend: Go

- High performance web server: Rust

- DB: Rust

- App server: Go

- Crypto (the non-money kind) stuff: Rust

- WASM (it's pretty embedded-like): Rust

Egoistically, the less you care about politics - the better it is for you. Caring about politics is actually a duty, a contribution (of your time and health in particular), but in reality, for most of the people who seemingly care, it's merely a drug.
Exactly!

Also, this broad approach of learning noise vs signal during interpolation is well known in the geostats world. There, you typically accomplish it by allowing a non zero "nugget" when you fit the variogram. However, folks in that community often prefer removing noise in post-processing despite having a robust statistical method to interpolate only the signal and not the noise. The reason is that the noise vs signal decision is highly application dependent, and it's easier to post-process differently than it is to run full solutions differently.

In other words, gaussian processes are also often used to interpolate signal and noise separately. Folks on that side are often very hesitant to do so, despite having well-established methods for it.

It's easy to remove things that are real and also easy to overfit noise. The same dataset needs different signal vs noise classifications depending on the end use case.

Put in other terms: One person's noise is another person's signal.
How about this then: ___Consent___

I love this podcast for anything in British history or literature. The aristocracy episode was particularly interesting. But the further afield it gets from that I feel like I don't come away having learned much about the history. He'll make random talking points like "Ghengis Kahn is remembered as a great conqueror" and then 3 phDs try to use that as a jumping off point to say something intelligent but end up arguing in different directions.

Let ML be the difference between Mastodon and Linux, and Twitter and Windows differ by ML too. That reflects the original sentence.

Let's call MT the difference between Mastodon and Twitter.

From the first sentence, Linux is separated from Mastodon by ML, and from Twitter by both ML and MT, and from Windows by ML, and MT, and ML again. But because Twitter and Windows difference is analogous but opposite to Linux and Mastodon difference, we can ignore them, so Linux is separated from Windows by MT, the separation of Mastodon to Twitter.

I think it goes beyond prescriptivism/descriptivism.

Descriptivism refers generally to describing how a community uses language, so the most common usages end up being the primary definitions. Once documented, these tend to become prescriptive.

In that context, a single author who uses a word in an unusual way would likely not have any impact on the descriptive or prescriptive definitions of that word, unless of course their usage becomes common.

Humpty was arguing for the benefits of using words in unusual ways, which potentially violates both prescriptivism and descriptivism.

Impressionistic use of words is one example of this, where the words used might convey a certain feeling, perhaps via their connotations, even though their literal definitions may not be exactly appropriate. This kind of usage is generally found in literature where language is being used as an artistic tool rather than a prosaic tool of communication.

The key is that there is a shift in the rhetoric from the architect of the herd immunity policy, Dr Tegnell:

Sweden has been the poster child for folks trying to wish away the danger of allowing a relatively dangerous, highly infectious pandemic to run its natural course. Now even the Swedes are conceding that, you know, letting people die unnecessarily was ... unnecessary.

In my EU country minimal car speed for highway is 80km/h, so this car would be allowed to drive there. Trucks are limited to max 90km/h on highway here, so only question would be if it is agile enough to be able to safely overtake trucks, or it would just have to follow some truck most of the time... I think that is quite ok for city car.

The first paragraph of the NBC article:

> BUENOS AIRES - Argentina has the world’s highest rate of positive COVID-19 tests, according to Oxford-linked tracker Our World In Data, with nearly six out of 10 yielding an infection, a reflection of low testing levels and loose enforcement of lockdown rules.

If you were implying that strict lockdowns have paradoxically failed, then you've picked the wrong evidence.

Well. The definition of authoritarian includes the following:

Is that not the definition? Government authority over individual freedom. Am I missing something?

You may not be ignoring things with regard to Covid, but you're certainly ignoring context to misquote someone you don't like.
Great points. I was coming from the mindset of DIYing an open source solution rather than building a marketable product. I've been building a portable 50W CO2 burning system for marking outdoor items and all of the above has been from my experience with the tradeoffs of components you can buy off the shelf. If you were to design the system from the ground up there is a lot of fat you can trim and leverage the overall system design to compensate for shortcomings in individual components.

To me the largest engineering challenge is actually the identification step, where you'd need to get sufficient return to positively identify the critter. Would be interesting to see how they pull this all together.

It's not widely appreciated that the point of being well-informed is to influence what happens between elections. That's when the politics gets done - the lobbying efforts, candidate selections, control of local political groups, agenda and policy design, and so on.

Elections are just a process to rubber-stamp decisions that have already been made by groups of people who understand this.

* You can move your account to a different local server
* If you use a personal server for privacy reasons, you can still get into Mastodon! My tactic was to look at the profile of anyone who was boosted onto my timeline a couple times and to be very liberal with follows... and then to unfollow anyone whose posts ended up being more annoying than valuable. It's not as a big deal because you will only see that person's content; if you end up following someone you don't like, it won't "pollute your recommendations" or whatever.

Bold of you to assume there's a social safety net to speak of in Eastern Europe. It's only on paper.

You have to be a cripple or not worked for like a year or two in order to be eligible for some very minimal sum a month, and even that is taken away from you if you don't actively look for work and haven't found it in 6 to 18 months.

The whole thing is crafted in a way that unless you are living in shanty towns and rely on your relatives stealing food and clothes for you, then you will not want to descend that low on the social ladder just to get something like 200 EUR or so. And that implicit and indirect discouragement works really well; people just don't bother pursuing social help because it's meaningless and 99% of the time you won't get it anyway. Only the gypsies are persistent in it.

It's every man for himself here in EE. I am not complaining by the way; I've never known any other state of things so I don't actually care about social safety nets at all. But when we here in EE heard about the "Corona stimulus packages" (basically you get money because of the pandemic even if you didn't lose a job) then a lot of us couldn't help but laugh at the absurdity of the idea that something like that would ever happen here.
Good for you. Small meetings and breakout sessions are more effective than absurd BFM :).
What is your ideal small size meeting, hypothetically speaking, or when does it become a crowd?
Well I know React well, TypeScript relatively well, but didn't have any boilerplate around for using both of them, so I had to put that together, had some various problems etc. Was about 3 hours in before I got to actually coding and then I decided screw it.

I would think since I have to figure out what it should look like, don't know anything about Github api, and have to set up stuff in the first place I would expect to take 6 hours to make something reasonable. But 3 1/2 hours in I decided it was late and I don't need the job that much. Then I thought I would ask what other people thought.
So a process checkpoint? They make me anxious.

this is why it's very common for people to have multiple alts on mastodon, different from twitter where I basically only see alts for nsfw content.
I joined mastodon.social like everybody else years ago when it started. Lurked around and discovered and followed several accounts from various interesting communities. After a few months/year you can pretty much know the feel of the community by following enough people from it.

Recently I was invited into one of those communities and I just used the migration feature in mastodon. Went pretty smoothly. I guess it went easier for me as I didn't mind "losing" my toots in this new era. For those who need/want to keep everything it maybe problematic.

My motto on modern web is: don't get too attached to things you don't own. You can't own a community so you shouldn't worry about losing it.
No, you're just wrong. What parent means is something like COM or GObject. The C ABI is too limited and still requires you to build things on top of it.

It's kinda like saying all you need is bytes. From the perspective of the kernel this might be fine because it isn't supposed to prescribe a particular method but user processes must still agree on a character encoding or a protocol they are going to run on top of those bytes.
I was thinking about The Fall of Google in the shower today and how it could happen while seemingly more evil Amazon is flourishing.

The reason I think comes down to Google's unwillingness to let engineers talk to customers. If even 10% of the engineers at Google were talking to customers inbetween sitting on multi-coloured bouncy balls and having political in-fights with PM competitions for who could destroy and relaunch Google Chat the fastest, they would still be winning instead of me typing this in Mozilla Firefox on an iPhone with DuckDuckGo as the default search engine.

I will admit, during my foray into Mastodon I tried a server at the low end of the author's size range, and I would say selecting the 'right server' has some impact from my experiences, but not in the way described:

A month after I joined, they had a disk crash and my account was gone. It looked like everyone recreated from scratch, so I did the same.

Two weeks later and without notice they restored a backup, overwriting everything that had happened since. I continued, but with rapidly declining interest to accompany my total loss of trust.

Two more months later the server was down permanently.
