Seems like the link that you posted is about computer related jobs lost due to AI.

I am sorry, could you explain this in a bit more detail?

Among other sources, this is the earliest article I could find:

PURLs are persistent URLs, they provide permanent addresses for resources on the web. The PURL service is an initiative of the Internet Archive.

This IA article is by the same Jason Scott of http://textfiles.com/jason/

Perhaps the change that I'm most excited about is official support for using sdboot instead of grub (something I have been manually configuring for the last 7 years):

The linked article doesn't seem to link to the documentation page, with all the change logs, so here you go:

I have been using Fedora Sericea since it came out (it's basically Fedora Silverblue, but uses Sway-wm instead of Gnome-wm). The system is actually pretty usable, and you don't really need to reboot after each rpm-ostree install command (`rpm-ostree live-apply` takes care of it via systemd-based overlay).

So this works:

./derasterize.c

If it's just a launcher you're looking for, I'd recommend https://kisslauncher.com

It is indeed a bit too long. A few tips:

- Graphs of benchmark results would be neat to have. Remember to put the code and graphs as a sort of TL;DR in that blog post. - I skimmed the code; there's no clear instructions as to how I'd use it for my own projects. Perhaps work on a CMake / Autoconf config for a library build? - The repository itself might not have enough visibility due to being self hosted. While I do love self-hosting, maybe posting a read-only mirror on GitHub would bring in more exposure?

Back in the day, the demo-scene was rife with Easter eggs, often with a personal touch.

It always puts a smile on my face when I come across clever ones like this, even though that's becoming rarer these days. I guess that's due to concerns about 'hidden code' in commercial codebases, which third-party license holders might be skeptical about.

Nice Easter egg: https://summate.it/https://summate.it

Unrelated: The link to meantime.py on this page is broken, and the correct link is http://sourcefrog.net/projects/meantime/meantime.py

That is easily solved by looking at a capture from the beginning of this month, where indeed, the disclaimer is absent:

https://web.archive.org/web/20221101125244/https://kittiyapa...

So I took one of the images on the front page of her website (https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5dc05d17e6229c...) and uploaded it to FotoForensics:

https://fotoforensics.com/analysis.php?id=282efc0801ef0a8a50...

The results are for you to judge.

One thing that bugs me is that this article doesn't link to any of the original sources, nor provides any links to the photographer's website.

The photographer clearly states in her website that all of her photos are edited in some way or another (see 'Disclaimer'):

https://kittiyapawlowski.com/about-kittiya

Providing the originals would also make it trivial to pass it through https://fotoforensics.com/ to carry out a more robust detection of doctoring of the images.

With regards to differences with 'normal' Python, depending on WASM also means that despite having the same sys.get_int_max_str_digits() = 4300, my local Python can print out (2222*5555 + 5555*2222) in its entirety, while the browser based one can't.

Values that can be set via maxdigits in sys.set_int_max_str_digits(maxdigits) are also limited to size of int in C.

Not entirely necessary for its function, but UNIX `pass` and dotfile managers such as `yadm` come to mind when considering git based programs.

At school, I somehow talked myself into a dumb competition with my math geek about memorizing digits of pi.

I won, with 35 digits memorized (he gave up early; that's also around where the first '0' occurs in pi).

I don't miss any opportunities to test that I still remember them correctly, to this day. ;)

I happened to notice that PI is #define'd to 3.1415926538, which isn't the correctly rounded off value of 3.14159265358...

Seems like they missed a '5'.

Unix pass with a gpg key, backup up to a private GitHub repo.

While I don't use Windows as my daily driver, I've let Windows Defender (or whatever they call the default these days) run on my Windows installations. It works pretty good (as long as you don't, like, actively download and run shady stuff from the Internet), and very likely consumes less resources than most commercial ones out there.

Also, Vim Vixen for Firefox.
