  • Anyone adjusting their strategy given the recent volatility and ongoing uncertainty? Mostly staying the course over the long run but interested in capital preservation in the event the economy starts to spiral. Curious what others are doing.

  • Had the same predicament as Chuck here when setting up shop. Built the top on the ground and put it on saw horses..now you have a temporary workbench to use while making the base.

  • Lower. It caught their attention because a science fiction author had come up with upper bound, which the article notes was also bizarre.

    Houston had just learned that Australian science fiction author Greg Egan had found a new maximum length for the shortest superpermutations

  • Some interesting bits from the article:

    Anon is credited as the first author in the paper

    Computers are able to calculate superpermutations for n = 4 and n = 5 but not for anything beyond that.

    Since the series in question has 14 episodes, it would take 93,884,313,611 episodes to see all possible combinations. Or roughly 4 million years of non-stop viewing.

  • Played some acoustic guitar and started to wire up one of my bonsai trees (Japanese red maple).

    Hoping to get some time in the shop today to work on a CNC enclosure so I don't get dust everywhere during a carve.

  • There's a cafe I go to that has a tower and I find Kyoto cold brew tastes better (notes are more prominent) and is noticeably smoother than regular cold brew.

    You could argue it's marginal, but the same could be said for spending thousands on grinders and espresso machines versus a $100 machine and $20 grinder. Everyone's going to value their workflow differently.

  • One terrible combo is infinite scroll plus links in the footer (Bing does this, if you needed another reason not to use that site). I think pagination is generally a better pattern, since you can link to a specific page.

    Also lack of back button functionality and having your state reset on refresh are also pet peeves.

  • Thanks for this. I'm using mainly Firefox to support alternatives to webkit/blink based browsers but the new ToU makes me a bit apprehensive about the direction they're going.

    I also had been test driving Falkon from KDE but will look into these as well.

  • I can dig it. For me it's similar to seeing physical products described as "handcrafted" to denote quality versus something mass produced. A lot of indie devs pour enormous amounts of time and energy into animation, scripts, music, etc. that a derivative gen AI would just spit out in seconds.
