Most of programs use key chords, like Cmd-Shift-G, Ctrl-Alt-N and so on, you need to remember and press awkwardly several keys at once. uses key sequences, C-c then k then p then l. If I forget after C-c k p then press C-h and help appears.

This fruit is rotten. It looks so ripe and juicy but if you bite it you will see: this fruit is rotten.

CD-re az Ubuntu 18 lemezképfájl ajánlott, mivel a későbbi verziószámúak nem férnek rá a CD-re, vagyis a DVD-re.

The Ubuntu 18 image file is recommended for CD, as later versions do not fit on CD, i.e. DVD.

curious to know whats the experience of production push in other companies? e.g lots of documents/approvals…

Wrote a short essay on overreliance on metaphor in our "understanding" of the brain

Anyone from here?

how are you guys doing

Another day missing Aaron Swartz.

Writing. I want to do it, very badly. I just don't want to be bad at it. You have to be bad at it in order to get good at it. But... Catch 22 isn't it?

I think reading helps quite a bit, especially writing about what you’ve read, even to yourself, just so you can go through the process of having to explain something that you’re only recently familiar with. There’s something about that process that seems to be helpful, at least to me.

Same. The way I consume information influences how I think. Short form content makes my thinking fragmented without a clear structure. I feel that fragmented thinking won't lead to convincing writing. And I'm trying to regain some of that lost control.

Very interesting! I think something along those lines might be happening for me too. Another aspect, always cooking in the back of my mind, "if you can't explain it well, don't explain it at all."

…

The fear of being bad at it is the only thing holding you back. I experienced something like that with playing music with others. Perhaps you could learn to lay down your critical brain during the creation process and that good/bad isn't a useful distinction until later when you're editing your work.

Yeah, this is pretty much what I can't do. My critical brain has a lot of power. It's very evolved at this point :/

Team vim, team emacs, or team “my editor doesn’t start wars”? One line, no essays. Go!

Started with vim but felt limited, especially when doing heavy Julia visualisation work. Now in emacs and it's been smooth-sailing. Also, emacs + typst is amazing.

Emacs is what I despise and love, the thing I can't work without now

…

mostly vs code now but team nvim.

$ nano hello.txt

…

what a classic

hallo, whirled

Developed a Vinboard (my pinboard.in clone) shortcut, works really well. On iOS it lives in Share menu, on macOS in the Dock. Click sends the current browser page (Safari, Chrome, Zed, Firefox) for bookmarking. On the server side Jev decides tags from 60 least recently used; and archival opens a real Chrome to save the whole page for posterity. Unlimited API limits and direct requests to the database. Pinboard charges for much less functionality $22/year.

I never have enough time but I’d love to do a bit more recreational programming with esoterical languages like kitten, , and . AoC and Project Euler are good because they just require an answer but there’s also loads of simple puzzles online that rely on being able to submit the code in common languages. I’ve been wondering, however, if I could use an LLM to take those problems and create a verification harness for any language I like.

The Typst language is Turing complete. Does that mean it could be the target of a C compiler? Could I compile the Linux kernel to Typst? Certainly, one could build a mean web server with it. Look out .php, here comes

Hi, teying to get started with linux and basic networking/cybersec here. What are some essential linux commands ant tools, or pentesting philosophies i should learn before i dip my toes in the water? Thanks :)

Essential commands are: ip for network interface and routing config host/dig/nslookup for DNS querying tc for traffic control nft for firewalling mii-tool for interface tweaking nmap for LAN discovery tcpdump to view traffic ping/ping6/traceroute/traceroute6/mtr for debugging connection issues

thanks so much. i will look into those

there's also ufw (and its gufw) as an alternative to firewalld. apparmor, if you care.

…

thanks, :)

You’ll learn Linux commands as you go not as the goal itself.

Textlog seems pretty cool 😎

késztetést érzek, hogy valami ilyesmivel (is) foglalkozzam, a kódoláshoz egyelőre nincs agyam, de majd azt is szeretnék, csak scripteket, semmi komoly programnyelv, de végülis a JavaScript is scriptnyelv

I feel the urge to do something like this, I don't have the brains for coding yet, but I would like to, just scripts, no serious programming languages, but after all, JavaScript is also a scripting language

Hit me up if you want a long-term, low-commitment, long-distance, e-mail pen-pal. I've never had so much fun hyphenating things.

I always associate summer with the months June, July, August — thinking that end of August is end of summer — but no, 7th of August is actually summer midpoint, we’re in the middle now, not near the end.

what ls -flag is your go-to?

-altr

I wish ls had an option to make . and .. top-sticky no matter of -r and -t.

-Fla, so that’s my la alias…, but now I use and thus alias la=‘eza -F -l -a

Missed opportunities ITT for cheeky puns like -thrall -Flash etc

…

-altrh mostly does the job

I'll try this -lahtr
