  • That's where I'd heard of them, that channel is a goldmine.

  • Fascinating stuff, and great to see Deluxe Paint II and Silkworm again - I spent lots of time with both of them back in the day.

  • I know of it because Helix uses it, and it works really well.

  • Podman v5.2.0 has just been released. This release is the first one with full support for libkrun, allowing GPUs to be mounted into our VMs on MacOS to accelerate AI workloads, which I know has been much anticipated. Otherwise, this has been a rather uneventful release cycle.

    Boring is good, I'm happy I don't need to do anything.

  • I've used both and I miss features from each when using the other. Photoshop needs numeric entry for when positioning things.

  • I like that that article has as one of its first sections "How do you donate your body to science?".

  • I am, thanks!

  • Thank you and goodbye to lazy-static, I'll think of you every time I use a regex.

  • I don't think I'd find make the time to read articles so personally I'd prefer just having the art here (and of course articles can be linked to from the post body - but would probably be overlooked).

  • My first Gentoo install was also because it was an ageing laptop that was too slow for anything else. Luckily it wasn't my only machine, since the install times for some things were quite long.

  • If you need to refer to a key with ~ or / in its name, you must escape the characters with 0 and ~1 respectively. For example, to get "baz" from { "foo/bar": "baz" } you’d use the pointer /foo1bar0.

    I guess they're using ~ for escaping since backslash is already escaping text content, not that you'd see it very often in keys.

    Having magic values instead of using ~~ and ~/ feels ugly.

  • It's far from my field, so I'll have to take your word on that!

  • [Making cracks visible is] helpful, but what would be ideal is a way to not just find the cracks, but to fix them.

    That's what the article says, they're hardly implying it's nonsense. Or are you saying that the self-healing is nonsense? There are examples of self-healing materials, like Roman concrete.

  • I don't know that I agree - it's worth researching these things because if it works that's great and that paper proves that other people are working on the visibility problem.

  • Nope, it's still great on Windows. Perhaps they went to Linux since it's still Windows-only.

  • Good article, apart from talking so much about choosing a language for the user and ignoring the Accept-Language header, which exists solely for this reason.

    Most websites seem to ignore this header and just show you whatever their geo-ip says.

  • True, the article does say that

    [the local sheriff] placed a sign at the end of the driveway warning people to stay away from the house and to call him with questions.
