Because people made religion out of it? A religion from a Canaanitic people, who never set food in the desert they claim to have walked in for 40 years, but hey, we can’t all worship the same Canaanitic Storm God Elohim, amirite?

Context: Josephus was born 4 years after Jesus’ supposed death, and he wrote his Antiquities some 60 years after that…

I don’t know if that’s trustworthy in archaeology / history, but that doesn’t feel very trustworthy to me.

He’s a very untalented

Yet he was able to get his channel to 4 million subs, demonstrating that you’re lying about him.

unintelligent young man

He’s 35

who needs attention to have an income

This describes literally any science yt channel…

Just say you don’t like him, or even hate him. No need to dress it up in arguments.

Eh, I’ll stick to NixOS, where I have full control over what’s installed, in a declarative way. It enables me to have the same environment and configuration on my desktop and laptops. Much better than reinstalling whatever custom scripted OS someone else has released.

Very neat incremental improvement - especially it being less energy intensive, which means TMR can work on wireless!

Where is Nix? Oh right, he’s in space, chilling.

Clapping ovaries, eh? That’s the noise that IT’S BABY-MAKING TIIIIIIME!

That’s “klapperende eierstokken” in Dutch, BTW.

Neat! Reminds me of Mystical - a language where every function is a magic circle.

Minimalist NixOS

That is NOT a reason to pick NixOS. You pick NixOS when you want to configure your entire OS via a configuration that you’ve saved in one or more files, potentially in a git repo. No more manual scripting that’ll break a major version down the line.

Copy the repo to another (or new) machine, let the OS setup your configuration and you’re done. You’re back to where you were.

Now, not everything is tracked in that repo, like a stateful browser containing your browser history, etc, but if you can get back 90% to where you were in a single installation - that’s a massive time-saver :D

I think they’re just uncomfortable with the word “master”

1 person over at Microsoft complained, and they moved mountains for this person to replace master with main. It sounds like a joke, but it’s not.

and that seems completely reasonable to me

No it doesn’t. Why does an entire industry need to flip over, because of a single person? Like the ability of changing the master branch for yourself should have been enough. Changing the default over on Github to strong-arm the rest of the world is disgusting behaviour. Which is why I’m sticking to master wherever I can.

especially when they’re people from a group which has been subjected to slavery.

That is literally every group… Every group has been slaves (and slavers) at some point in time. That’s not a good argument.

Oh, I upgraded my hardware alright, as well as my OS! No more Windows! Finally free of the shitbaggery!

Haskell:

https://learnyouahaskell.com/introduction

It’s been a while since writing some (2018), but the concepts you learn from Haskell are great (though I still can’t explain Monads, even if my life depended on it) and can be applied in other languages.

Anyway, I can’t speak to BEAM, but Haskell is very typeful, it teaches you currying, very great language, awful tooling (but that was ~10 years ago, so I hope things have improved since).

very cursed, indeed

I’ve already had ChatGPT hallucinate Python packages that didn’t exist - someone was nice enough to capture those kinds of packages to prevent abuse. Some pytest sub-package, IIRC.

over many many years.

19 years. Almost 20, coming December!

Aaah, PHP. I’ll stick with GoHugo, but it’s good to know alternatives!

Direct link to the paper: Pulse-Fi: A Low-Cost System for Accurate Heart Rate Monitoring Using Wi-Fi Channel State Information

It uses a signal processing pipeline to process CSI data fed into a custom low-compute Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) neural network model.

Neat!

I tried Thunderbird. Didn’t like it, at all. Evolution is much more my jam.
