Since the 80s, I have been told that LISP was obsolete. Now LISP dialects are more popular than Pascal. Clojure and Emacs Lisp have more repositories than Visual Basic.

@newt @icedquinn @meowski Thanks. I'm not in the habit of hunting down anyone's financial records (which reminds me... I still need to do my taxes... *sigh*), but readable articles are good. Yeah, looks like the "Google is bad" philosophy is put to the test for Mozilla fans

suddenly I have all kinds of "mairix" stuff interrupting my workflow. It's in org and it's in Gnus. What in the world is this?

Difference from Mount seems to be the use of a map instead of namespaces (I'm not sure what this means), and that Clip has better parallel system support and async between components. Looks like Juxt has made another good product -- but I don't think I have any pain points on the things it addresses. Shall I stick with Mount for my full-stack web-apps? github.com/juxt/clip#compariso

"Master" is not a racist word. Does this need to be an unpopular opinion?

What's the adage about "better to use 10 functions on 100 things than 100 functions on 10"? This proves it false. [:humor]

Do you know about :is() in CSS?

It's pretty handy!

Firefox vs Brave: Brave is based on Chrome , and has some powerful hype right now. But what else ?

RT @plexus
This is what happens if you try to download and install Firefox on Windows

Bing: "you don't need to download a new browser, we recommend Edge"

Windows: "to protect your pc we recommend only running ms verified apps, use Edge"

Disgusting

@trinsec Nice recommendation on HandBrake!

Yes, I believe that RecordMyDesktop compression (or is it ogv?) does factor in identical portions of frames and generalize them, like any good text compression algorithm does.

I've also been told that OBS might have some perks for me here, so when I finish this batch I'll give OBS and HandBrake a try

A great idea, and a nicely done April 1st

A friend’s startup did a privacy-preserving voice assistant w/ on-device ML including CV. Partner built nice prototype I saw at CES before startup exited to a Big (partner didn’t go to market).

We get asked“when is Brave doing Alexa or Echo private alternative?” It could happen. twitter.com/brave/status/15098

@trinsec Now I'm getting nervous. I haven't started yet. However, I think the fact that for chunks of the movie two of the monitors don't change is reflected in the compression rate there. The actual files, once it's done encoding, are about a ninth the size.

I learn and because life is short. Programming is cool of course but honestly it's a shitshow. The complexity + dependency breakage, the "tooling" + constant changes are not healthy. I am a noob and for this I have the authority to say. I'd prefer not to.

@trinsec To keep it in one video, yes. In post-processing in kdenlive I will focus on one or two as necessary, but the work I'm demonstrating does shift between all three
