Have a strong anti-counterfeit strategy. Don’t overlook this.

Would like to see this highly non-obvious point expanded upon.

Indeed, it's annoying that there doesn't seem to be an Apple-approved method for customizing the outer display.

I found the ability to merge unrelated repositories very useful when collecting various bits of work I did separately and combining it into a single library.

My number one request: let me block specific sites from my search results.

I built an example project showing how to build shared libraries in Haskell, in 2019.

If they're using a LLM to make those decisions, then they're fundamentally unable to provide the reasons for those decisions, because of how LLMs work.

...an AI model will receive the applications, read them, auto-reply to irrelevant ones...

You're probably breaking EU law by building this nightmare.

No.

FYI, the very recently released Marathon with the BattleEye rootkit works fine on a maximally trimmed down Windows 10 LTSC, which is what I'm running on my PC (personal console).

Some people should definitely be getting Repetitive Strain Injury from all the hyping up of LLMs.

Unfortunately.

Why don't you try paying your bills with passion and report back.

Join us in ##dependent on Libera IRC. We continue to talk about this stuff all the time, with a focus on Martin-Löf intuitionistic type theory.

The preposterously long rock-paper-scissors scene had me laughing tears.

I would also like to obtain this information that clearly doesn't exist. Please reply to my comment to prove me wrong.

So, is Outer Wilds a RPG or a platformer?

My original HomePod has recently regressed in its ability to play songs. It can no longer play one song after another without glitching and repeating a little bit of the previous song. It boggles my mind.

Thank you for writing down this memory. It would fit perfectly on https://folklore.org but unfortunately it seems that the site is no longer accepting new memories.

Threads and locks are fundamentally the wrong abstraction for most scenarios. This is explained in complementary ways in two of the finest technical books ever written, Joe Armstrong's "Programming Erlang" and Simon Marlow's "Parallel and Concurrent Programming in Haskell". I highly recommend both.

Thank you for many fond memories of playing Glider and Pararena.

Whoever is downvoting you for speaking the truth should go stand in a corner. Or try maining BeOS for a while, to experience first-hand what happens when application programmers are forced to use threads and locks.

1. Go to the App Shortcuts subsection of the Shortcuts section of the Keyboard preferences panel in System Preferences.

2. Add an arbitrary keyboard shortcut (perhaps ⌥⌘N) for the "New Finder Window" Finder menu command.

3. Add your desired keyboard shortcut (⌘N) for the "New Folder" Finder menu command.

4. Restart Finder.

Some things have been tried; some things continue to be tried.

Just because most of the free software ecosystem relies on unpaid volunteer work does not mean it is a desirable state of affairs, especially with billion dollar companies building on top of said work while hardly contributing anything back.

Great analogy! Look up Dasani some time.

Microvision Nomad was indeed two decades ago, but Microsoft Hololens 2 also used laser retinal projection.

Old Microvision Nomad units from around 2004 pop up on eBay from time to time. I have one; it's a monocular red laser retinal projection display, with a permanently attached computing unit running an ancient version of Windows CE. It's bulky, finicky, and nowhere near open source; there's hardly any documentation for it, but it does work somewhat. I haven't done anything interesting with it yet, because it doesn't have a IMU, and integrating one with it has been difficult.

Microsoft Hololens 2 also used Microvision-derived laser retinal projection technology. I don't have one, so I can't say how well it really works, but Microsoft seems to have given up on it as well.

If you relax your requirements and allow for a green holographic waveguide display, there are a few other options, but still nothing open source that I'm aware of.

A graphic designer should be capable of designing an avatar for themselves instead of using AI slop that rips off Studio Ghibli. I closed the page as soon as I saw that.
