Aside, do you know of other interesting approaches to having an editor-like interface to shell? I know of shell buffers in emacs and of the plan9's acme's default actions, and am curious if some other models exist.
> surely nobody would write a program with *bugs* in it, everything should be programmable all the time
I don't see the reasoning. I would agree that everything would be better off being more programmable, but don't see how average(?) bugginess of programs can be part of an argument for/against that. Could you elaborate?
@mhoye Huh? What is?
That one of them is voluntary and the other is not. I fail to see the connection.
@mekkaokereke I thought that typically speedy trial statutes require that, upon defendant's request, trial will start within 6 months. Wikipedia claims that NY (I assume state of NY) has such a statute. Is it something that cannot be relied upon?
@mhoye What's the difference between keeping secrets and choosing what and when to reveal?
Mastodon meta
Note that replies are _usually_ sent to original post's followers, too.
(If you want to see how various Mastodon concepts (e.g. public vs unlisted) translate into ActivityPub concepts (e.g. `to` and `cc` lists), append `.json` to a post's URL and look at the ActivityPub object shown.)
Mastodon meta
It's not a given that their server has all the replies, either. (ActivityPub doesn't really have the concept of a thread being "owned" by someinstance; it's much more similar to an e-mail thread that consists of messages that happen to reference older ones' IDs, but then can be sent wherever.)
@isomer On an absolute scale, is it louder than a small portable generator? (I wouldn't describe that as making massive amounts of noise and am slightly surprised at a small two-stroke engine that is louder than that.)
Note that the dispersion (be aware of vertical logscale) can be seen on the figure, which might somewhat alleviate concerns about very sparse reporting about time-since-last-dose (only extremes are reported, not even average).
I'm also somewhat sad about lack of any demographic information about participants~
It seems natural to assume that the after-the-fact evaluation is better (because it doesn't suffer from halo bias). How could we test that though (and how would we define "better")?
Nicht genau dieselbe, aber âhnlich:

eurocentrism, linguistics
@schratze Did you find any sources that look at a wider range of languages?
Hm. That leaves me confused about how that's a flow battery. It seems to work by depositing ions on plate electrodes, so it should have all the issues of batteries with plate electrodes: electrode size (not volume of electrolyte) limits capacity, electrodes' surface area matters so their erosion matters.
Do you know what prevents the electrodes from getting reshaped into something with much smaller surface area over time?
I enjoy things around information theory (and data compression), complexity theory (and cryptography), read hard scifi, currently work on weird ML (we'll see how it goes), am somewhat literal minded and have approximate knowledge of random things. I like when statements have truth values, and when things can be described simply (which is not exactly the same as shortly) and yet have interesting properties.
I live in the largest city of Switzerland (and yet have cow and sheep pastures and a swimmable lake within a few hundred meters of my place :)). I speak Polish, English, German, and can understand simple Swiss German and French.
If in doubt, please err on the side of being direct with me. I very much appreciate when people tell me that I'm being inaccurate. I think that satisfying people's curiosity is the most important thing I could be doing (and usually enjoy doing it). I am normally terse in my writing and would appreciate requests to verbosify.
I appreciate it if my grammar or style is corrected (in any of the languages I use here).
