It's like you didn't even read my comment. The ability to hold a note is just as useful a measure of how influential a philosopher is as citations in academic journals is. That's what I just said, right above you.

If you really really really like having a numpad because you use it a lot, you probably shouldn't have a numpad.

One of the best QOL things i've done is move to smaller keyboards. 90% of it was for aesthetics and learning something new, but mapping the numpad to ALWAYS be under my fingertips(456 = jkl, 789 = uio, etc), just a modifier away, has made using a normal numpad feel achingly slow.

I code and do analytics. Having symbols like ()/[]/{} easy to reach (df/er/shift+er) with my left and all the numbers and their modifiers under my right (the custom numpad now using the default numkeys so i have easy access to !@#$%^&*( as well) has made things go much smoother and faster.

It's not going to literally change how much time you work or anything, at least not by any significant amount, but once you adapt to it (and it's really not that hard) going back always highlights just how absurd our current keyboard's are (split space should be a norm and capslock shouldn't be there)

> does not imply an obligation from me to give any remote fuck

I don't think this attitude suitable in the diverse community where there are different ethnics or religons. People should care what the other find things unconfortable and should be aware that what you think acceptable is may not so for the others.

Of course if you mean let them do their own things and you do not mean offense or insult them, I thank you for your understanding.

Edit: to clarify what I mean.
That was my second thought here.

This would not have caused problem in Malayasia, Maldives, Indonesia, Bahrain, among many other countries.

"or"
This was the wrong decision. Liberal institutions in the west have begun to increasingly yield to the demands of extremist minority views and doing so only emboldens them. You are free to insult white people, Christianity, and non transexual heterosexual men in this country but everyone else is a protected class. Even speaking positively or respectfully discussing the protected classes in a vaguely defined wrong way spurs outrage and likely costs you your job. Its interesting watching institutions act outraged over Florida's "don't say gay" bill while instituting their own version of it that just targets everything else.

The fact that people describing themselves as progressive are fighting to forbid blasphemy has got to be the worst “freedom is slavery” newspeak in the last decade. When did it become acceptable for one sect to dictate what we are allowed to talk about? They are the enthusiastic useful idiots for dark age theocrats, the exact translation of our despicable white nationalists and Christian supremacists.

It’s quite common for people in dating situations to try and second guess what good dating behaviour would be. They try to project a character or personality that they think will be attractive, rather than behaving as they normally would around friends or family. Also they might answer questions disingenuously in order to project a false image of themselves. The advice to just be yourself is really just saying, don’t do that. Be more honest.

Clearly stating the reason why Desktop Linux support is eternally ill defined due to the moving parts of the desktop stack is the whole point of this, and no serious person would accept or cater support to a tiny minority of complaining Linux users to fix their highly tweaked non-standard desktop because they messed around with their dotfiles.

> There is nothing to refute. We don't agree with you, we don't care about your opinion, and we're tired of hearing it.

Who exactly is we? You don't speak for the one pretending to 'refute' my claims about the Linux Desktop ecosystem. They can explain why for themselves.

My claims about the Linux Desktop in my comments remain irrefutable, an evergreen fact and still no rebuttal to it exists because it is the truth.
How sensitive are Muslims to other peoples way of life?
If Muslims are not OK with their religion and its figures being talked about in ways that are not within the rules of their religion, they shouldn't bring it up, and we should act as if it doesn't exist. You think your prophet was righteous? I don't care, I can't talk about him anyway, so it won't be part of my world of ideas. This has been my position on this topic since I got scolded by a Muslim for not referring to Islam's prophet with the obligatory "s.a.s."

I'm pretty sure Carlyle's "whiff of grapeshot" was punning on the "whiff of grape", which is generally available in either red or white (vineyard products being inferior in spectrum to all the factions in the Russian Civil War), and well known in the context of sex & drugs & national anthems:

I have been responsible for maintaining many thousands of pages of documentation with a dozen+ staff, and can say that at least for my industry there is often no hierarchy that fits every use case. Then consider that your documentation references dozens or hundreds of other pieces of external industry documentation, and now you have a real mess. That’s before we even get into the ERP system and all the relevant material specifications and such that’s stored away in there.

I do think LLMs will eventually be the solution to this long-standing problem. Even if you could ask questions and it would do a general summary for it and then point you in the right directions for more details we’d be way ahead.
It depends from person to person. Anyone I've met who is Muslim seem incredibly tolerant to me.
Sure, doing stuff like compiling code is perfectly suited to a laptop, but taking notes in math class or drawing a diagram is not. A tablet with a keyboard and pen can do it all, the iPad with its limitations can not. Now you need 2 devices when really one could do.

Personally I don't like MacOS, I'd rather iPadOS just dropped the limiters.

Is Islam at all compatible with secular values in the same country?

In the end, you will have one of the two encompass the other. Either you have a secular country living by democratic, progressive law which allows people to be Muslims modulo this. Or you have a Muslim country living by Shariah law, but tolerating secular non-believers in it.

First won't work because Muslims (in the traditional sense) won't tolerate some other framework encompassing their worldview. They have taboo topics nobody should ever question, and secular ideology based on science will question things.

And second won't work because Shariah law gives very concrete directions on dealing with non-believers.

> According to Islam

According to a perverted, fundamentalist view of Islam. Islam is much more diverse than Iran and Saudi Arabia. The fact that they manage to impose their sectarian practices as standard Islam in much of the world is very problematic.
The issue with this becomes that anti-trust then becomes the tool of the $CurrentRegime to break up companies THEY dislike.

For example, part of the reason US costs for healthcare are skyhigh IS because of US govt regulation. IF the only applied it to healthcare giants, but they won't, because they're not the companies the govt dislikes, also $$$.

All this will do is end up giving more power to the govt to break up the only thing that actually has the capability endangers their power-hoarding : big companies.

Ultimately, Govt IS the biggest company, and you rarely have a choice to switch. If I don't like Amazon, I can go to walmart, or local store. I can't just willy nilly pack up and leave the country.

People support regulations (or hell, $MeasureX) until the govt comes for the thing they like, despite people like us telling them that eventually the govt will do just that. (Eg, abortion in the US : People like us were telling others that if they stampede on our rights, they will stampede on yours too, given the chance).

Light in peasant houses didn’t use candles but rush dipped in fat or tallow. Rushlights took minimal effort to create and rush was basically free. Candles where more consistent and significantly longer lasting though vastly more expensive, while rushlights where plenty useful and cheap.

The major cost was you could also eat the fat, but an hour of light every night would cost you something like 1% of the calories you needed to survive. Making them viable outside of true starvation situations. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rushlight

Similarly, work was intense during planting and harvest, but slowed down the rest of the year. So people would do things like take pilgrimages surprisingly often. Rather than long days of backbreaking labor the major issue was they lacked productive work most of the year.

I am not saying life was good, but rather it was very different than we imagine.

I'm a few minutes into the podcast and Zeihan has already said stuff like:

* Putin would never throw an atomic bomb to the US because the US always knows where Putin is and we would just bomb him back and terminate him.

* Even if "the Chinese" took Taiwan they wouldn't be able to take advantage of the semiconductor industry. They can't operate their own.

* Russia needs to integrate a number of countries that would double its size to feel safe. If they don't achieve this they have a huge border and not enough troops to protect it.

* "We" listen to everything "the Russian" and "the Chinese" say, the Chinese room is silent. Therefore Xi Jinping is completely isolated. This is the biggest danger in a war with Taiwan.

* If Ukraine falls, Poland is next, NATO will get involved, Russia will get destroyed, thus Russia will probably use nukes.

* I'm almost quoting here: "the plan for the Chinese in the next 10 years is to beat the nationalist drum so that when the food and the energy run out everybody bands together only because they are Han Chinese"

Strange comment. As it was originally mostly ECMWF and a few other EU centric models that supported near term precip better than US models, it seemed better in EU to me. It got worse after it took off in US though, I'd agree. Meanwhile climacell worked better in US.

I don't know about that. But when it comes to ecosystem of components, nothing beside Vue, beats React. I spent weeks looking for a good Select components with custom item rendering, async options loadings. Writing a component like that from scratch takes a lot of time to get it properly. Yes, there are Vanilla components like Tom-Select, but then you have a soup of different components with different interfaces and it becomes a mess to make them talk to each other reactively.

I wanted to use SolidJS for its performances, but it has a poor ecosystem. I tried to ditch front-end frameworks all together and I ended up synching states between components manually. In the end, I guess React (or Vue) gives you a good balance between pro and cons.

I guess, ecosystem is important beside mere performance. This is not only true for fast shipping, but for developer experience too.
That is unfortunately a feature of modern-day progressivism. There are a number of other 'blasphemies' that it condemns (that are actually often censored on HN too, in the name of civility) as well.

I Sure, I can agree that it depending on how you defined intelligence it can be considered intelligent in a way.

I don't know. I mean maybe AGI is possible, but if the goal is to imitate humans rather than some other more practical purpose it would probably have to be very different from ChatGPT.

Trying to compare it to average human intelligence is not even apples to oranges in my opinion. It's something completely different yet superficially similar to the way how humans think (due to obvious reasons)

Ignoring the combination matrix of Linux desktop distros combined with the multiple non-standard components in the desktop stack excluding the kernel (which is the only standard component) is an order of magnitude of complexity, qualifying the implementation, level of support, and testing and as a 'complicated contraption', including this project.

With the giant difference being how 'software support' is defined which for almost all Linux Desktop distros out there, is no standard distro meaning it being an ill defined, free for all.
