Stumbled upon this video. Seems really interesting. SPJ is really enjoyable to listen to, as always.

I'm kind of a beginner... Can someone explain why you would make/use/have a dynamically and/or weak typed language? Is it just to not write some toInteger / as u64 / try_from()? I mean the drawbacks seem to outweigh the benefits...

Democracy Now! news clip containing info about Uranium weapons already in Ukraine (supplied by the UK), as well as info about Uranium weapons used in the past (in Iraq), and the effects of their use.

That's because of monopolies... There are only two brands of PC CPUs you could own...

What's going on?! Everyone claiming they own X... while in fact everyone owns X...

I use Emacs, but only because I don't want to use VSCode (spyware) or VSCodium (even that does not get all the telemetry out by default, and anyway, it's like using Chromium...). But Emacs is NOT good for my OCD... Too much time configuring things I don't really care about. And I don't code as much as actual (professionals) programmers (I'm a mathematician), so I basically use my mouse a lot...

Anyway has anyone tried Lapce? Is it any good?

I downvoted your post and laughed, but then I took it back. Sorry

Many countries (not the US, Russia, or Ukraine) consider cluster bombs illegal. I worry seeing people applauding the use of such weapons...

Maybe we should write lemmy somewhere...

Kind of crazy that Ubuntu has some packages exclusively as snaps...

Chromium could be spying on you, as it communicates with google servers. You should use ungoogled-chromium, and hope they did a good job...

spoileror just use Firefox

I was curious why CERN and Fermilab chose AlmaLinux instead of Rocky Linux. After googling, I found out that the Rocky Enterprise Software Foundation, which controls Rocky Linux, is a public-benefit corporation. This is a for-profit type of corporation, unlike what the name suggests. The AlmaLinux OS Foundation is a 501(c)(6) non-profit, which in my mind is clearly the type of organization that should control such an OS.
