- celsius1414Or the opposite: cooling the interior to a survivable temperature.
- If you’ve done so as moss, I salute your ability to use human technology to post!
- There’s a Marko Pollo joke, too, but I’m too chicken to say it.
- Which reminds me of the other old email sig:
Don’t anthropomorphize computers. They hate that.
- > I suppose they were simply working on their assigned tasks, listening to others in the background. How effective is that - I don't know.
If I’m doing that, I’m taking notes on the meeting. As long as the agenda items are at all relevant.
- Turning “Reduce Transparency” on in Accessibility > Display will solidify the menubar in both light and dark modes.
I go through phases with transparency off or on.
- Depending on your path to get there, the Jovian system’s radiation might kill you before you hit the atmosphere.

- You likely don’t have a say in the matter, but you should have a junior developer. That’s where senior developers come from.
- I keep thinking about how much feature lists like this could be matched by the Finder/File Explorer and my favorite text editor.
- I’ve had Warside wishlisted on Steam for a year now, as it looks to be just that. And when I looked it up just now to double-check the name, looks like it’s coming out next month! Fingers crossed.
- No need to feel super old!
/cries in half century
Reminds me of that explanation for why the years seem to move much faster when you’re older. When you’re 10, five years is half your life. When you’re 50, it’s only 10%.
- To paraphrase the old vim joke, emacs will be great once they add a text editor. ;)
- You are likely aware of the English language's feature of multiple adjectives (that are modifying the same noun) needing to appear in a certain order to sound "correct". So for example "yellow big balloon" sounds wrong but "big yellow balloon" sounds right. This is because SIZE is supposed to come before COLOR in standard English phrases.
In this case, "robotic" and "private" could be similar enough in category to be confusing. In the Order of Adjectives[0], "robotic" is in the TYPE category, near the bottom of the list, and "private" seems to fit in that same category at first glance. By that interpretation, either "robotic private" or "private robotic" works.
What if instead of "private" it said "Californian"? That would make it an ORIGIN, and "Californian robotic spacecraft" becomes the obvious choice — otherwise, you'd think they were talking about a spacecraft belonging to robots from California. ;)
So if we interpret "private" as an ORIGIN, your "private robotic spacecraft" sounds better. That would have been my choice as well.

- Agreed. It’s also so cool they still have the old Java versions available to play, all the way back to alpha (and before IIRC). Nostalgia for days.
- I just tried that on mine and using `lynx news.ycombinator.com` went to the website fine. I don't see anything obvious in a quick scan of the manpage nor config that might affect that. Weird!
- Art was already democratic. Now the megacorps are inserting themselves in the process and using “democratization” to sell the idea back to people.
That doesn’t mean good art is impossible with, say, an iPhone’s digital camera and its AI-powered capabilities. Nor will it mean LLM-powered tools can’t be helpful to writers or other workers. But all creative pursuits — programming included — are already democratic without Apple or Google or whatever corporation butting in looking for more rent.
- You might already know the term Digital Garden, but I think it'd be of interest as well if you haven't.
- And vice versa.
- Familiarity in my case -- for my legacy Mac servers I'm sticking with what both I and my boxen know. :) New servers will all be running Linux, so it'll be with the package manager for that distro, likely Debian.
