In the USA there are almost 650 thousands patent applications being filled (of which almost 400 thousands are getting grants) each year. So while technically what you wrote is correct, in practical terms finding an interesting patent is certainly not a trivial task for a journalist.
That's a serious accusation. Got anything to back it up?
I'm working on a new major mode with Tree Sitter highlighting and articles by Mickey Petersen are incredibly useful.
Yes please! Do it Mellon!
There is https://nebula.tv/ which hosts most of my favorite creators without all the YT crap. I am very happy to pay them.
One feature that is missing that I like to use is curly brace expansion to produce multiple arguments. For example,
$ mv *.{jpg,jpeg}
Maybe this will work for expansion: https://github.com/nushell/nu_scripts/blob/main/modules/filesystem/expand.nu
It's in the "filesystem" section, but I think it works on any string, not only paths. See the ugly duck example. I didn't try it myself yet.
BTW the nu_scripts goodies are available in Nixpkgs, so since you are using Home Manager, it's easy to integrate. Take a look at my config for starters: https://gitlab.com/tad-lispy/nixos-configuration/-/blob/bb614ae3639a504912db167f5bd7e6651d28f604/tad.nix#L39-47
Blocking is good option to improve individual experience, but a flood of low effort, spammy content from bots makes a very bad first impression on newcomers.
That's grossly exaggerated. I live in western Europe and never once used WhatsApp. There are very occasional frictions, like people being surprised I don't have it. Then when I explain that it's operated by Facebook, they are also surprised and sometimes are willing to quit themselves.
What's the irony? It's the Apple users that the EU is protecting here.
During the mid-20th century, a wave of futuristic optimism swept through society, inspiring people to envision how technology and design would transform their everyday lives. Nowhere was this spiri…
From the 1950s to the 1980s, individuals and companies alike conceptualized and presented their captivating visions of the kitchen of the future.
So Google have strong leverage over them, and the more of other revenue Mozilla have, the lesser is Google's leverage.
But the polling cited in the post shows that the vast majority of people in UK support secure communication!
83% of UK citizens believe personal conversations on messaging apps such as Element, WhatsApp or Signal should have the highest level of security and privacy possible.
Perhaps, in actual fact, posturing on end-to-end encryption is the fig leaf for a lack of investment in education, policing and social care. After all, talk is cheap.
