software licensing 

Just spotted some blurb on the net and it made me cringe in pain.

> Some people, when they first encounter REUSE, run into a couple of things that are very different from what they are used to. They miss the long legal blurbs at the tops of files, miss the COPYING/LICENSE file in the root of the repository, think that .license files clutter the directory, or find it very strange that even insignificant non-code files get licensing headers.

And they are fucking right! Software licensing^W lawyering is bullshit and basically a cancer.

@boilingsteam powerful enough to run emulated games? Powerful enough for me.

My first PCs (and SPARCstation) were way less powered than that.

@jalcine @cwebber@octodon.social what if the real links were the friends we made along the way

@amiloradovsky @freakazoid You don't even need much "model". A pattern randomizer works just fine: zykure.github.io/acid-banger/

Add some constraints to match the game state and you're golden.

GUIs, computer architecture 

@amiloradovsky Good UI is hard. Good UX is even harder.

While it is moderately easy to slap a bunch of dear-imgui forms, it most certainly would cost a *lot* of time to get to a level where your users wouldn't hate your guts.

(source: been doing UIs since Delphi 1, still not that good at it)

@amiloradovsky There are a lot of fabs that would make you ASICs on old norms. You get the hardware and they get continued returns on their investment. And, yes, those would be faster and cheaper than FPGAs. Everybody wins.

The question is why isn't everyone doing this.

@jsbarretto @dmbaturin @belore@eldritch.cafe ah, the developer evangelist of merchandising

@user8e8f87c

Since `type AsyncReadyCallback = GObject -> AsyncResult -> IO () ` (found via hoogle) and it is wrapped in maybe, you shall pass

```
(Just $ \obj res -> pure ())
```

Replace `pure ()` with what you need to do with the object and result. It shoule have the type `IO ()`.

@rantingsteve @cwebber@octodon.social That's me in a tuple.
That's me in a struct.
Mapping arg position.

@eater depending on how far you have to go. If you want to ride information superhighway^W^W the internet, IP is a must. For something more local (including radio meshes like LoRa) there are options to send raw link-level data.

@amiloradovsky I have the same feeling. Either you know where to find your results already and go there directly or you're about to get shoveled with shit.

@whitequark Apparently they already do this for quite some time.

@acegikmo I'm talking about the variable names.
they can be position mnemonics so

the linear form would look like

l0 +
l1x0 + b l1 x1 +
....

This way one can easily sort them out to proper positions in the notation form and collect back to linear.

@acegikmo 's are just plural suffix.

x are variables in the middle matrix, that are now a

@acegikmo so the l's would be on the left and b's on the bottom.

also, s/a/x/, so x's would be on a row/column intersections
