  • Hope you find something that makes your life easier. I am about to graduate, and I'm already discouraged about finding a job as most jobs nowadays don't have direct impact.

  • People knew. Then everything started being "i need people to work in my factory/office doing the same thing again and again" and everyone had to be the same.

    Edit: Think of all the advancement in science from people that were not "normal", now they'd have just failed basic school and never had any chances to do academia. I think Einstein failed history and other subjects in a college entrance but excelled in physics and math.

  • $4/month for this article.

  • That's what I think about so many home/traditional cure. Maybe it works for those people due to placebo effect, and I've lost that magic because I'm too critical of everything.

  • When workers die, you no longer have labor. When scientists die you no longer have their intelligence.

  • On this topic it's also good at finding you a acronym full form that can spell out a specific thing you want. Like you want your software to spell your name/some fun world but actually have full form related to what it does , AI can be useful.

  • It also has a team mode when you walk around with your friends, it gives different tasks to different people in the group. Haven't used it myself but I've been thinking of trying that with my clubs.

  • I feel like YouTube one can lead into another. Because it's hard to get people to follow you in GitHub. But having another platform where you can advertise your programs means a lot. Even if you write something useful people are not going to discover you without something else doing the outreach.

  • I use emacs, and it can change font size and font face similar to the font color during syntax highlights. Like in markdown or LaTeX headings are larger font, math formula have their system where superscript and subscript have higher/lower baseline. In org mode it can even convert the whole latex snippet into formula and display as image, or show inline images. And in rust it has type hints and other information overlayed along side the code you wrote, it even adds little buttons on tests you can click to run them.

    So I think what you want can probably be made easily if you have a solid grasp of what you want. Emacs is basically extensible using a programming language (elisp) so technically there's nothing you can't do logic wise, there might be some limitations on displaying things though.

  • You could always write your own program that runs before the compiler. Simple character replace for those unicodes to ascii

  • So IDE with syntax highlights? Those blocks things are also pretty much shown in most IDE, what do you use to code?

    I even have prettifying turned on so the keywords like in, lambda, etc are prettified.

  • Talking about Australia.

    Yeah, I was surprised with how much the education cost was, but it seems to high mostly for foreigners so that's understandable. But it's still cheaper than US tuition cost.

  • From my superficial research going there on work/study visa seems easier. Then you can decide whether to return or not later based on how things go. What do you think is the benefit of applying for permanent residency from the beginning? That seems a bit risky for me without knowing the culture and other aspects of living there.

  • Git works through ssh. So you need the same system as sshing into your machine. You just make a user group git and then let git and ssh handle things. And if you don't need people to push to your repo, then it's a lot easier as it's now similar to hosting a website/file server.

  • Problem with MS word is you can't really put vector images in it externally without it being weird. I think that's why people are used to drawing it in the software.

  • Let's name it CVE-2025, no id, just year so that we can recognize it immediately. The vulnerability of the vulnerability database being like this.

  • Wait poppler-utils can do a lot of pdf related things. Haven't tried rearranging but it has tools for separating pages and uniting them. And pandoc can covert between a lot of document formats. But it doesn't do it from pdf, can use pdftext, inkscape, graphicsmagick etc based on what you want to extract (text, vector graphics, raster graphics) etc.

  • Didn't even know about the org, but that's the QR scanner I have been using.

    Many people accept ad, or online website to do simple things like QR code, file conversion etc way too easily.

  • "It squeaks"

    Translation: It makes noises like an animal at distress or about to die when you are tearing into it.
