Curiously, one of the things many people criticize about Milei is that he explains the situation of the economy and its solutions in a way that many people don't understand because he's too technical about it

Our Constitution says that everyone in our country has the same rights as an Argentine, even if they are not. So you can get a national ID pretty easily, and in two years (which can take more time if you are living in Buenos Aires City, due to bureaucracy) you can become an Argentine. You must know too that it's impossible to lose the Argentine Nationality. Once an Argentine, never not-an-Argentine.
We are a country that's very open towards immigrants, as most of us are descendants of immigrants, mostly from Italy and Spain.
What's more, Google is better at developing Android than it is as a search engine, that's why I started to pay for Kagi.
He argued that he preferred 19th century literature because back then it wasn't (as much as in the 20th century) about becoming famous or rich as an author.
Terrible design decision.
I originally assumed that this was due to the increase in demand. It never went back to being as sharp as it was during those first hours of usage
It's mainly tiling but it has a floating mode. Also it's very customizable using Lua scripts.
I love it because it's the closest thing to a modern back ion3/notionwm[2]
But now I think that getting away from X11 is one of my main concerns so I'm not using any of these things.
Have a good weekend. Cheers from an Argentine :)
I'm developing my blog in Svelte, and I trust that (despite being kind of a niche framework) it will last for long. But if it gets abandoned by its developers then I'll have a problem.
The only way for me to own everything on it would be to do develop as much as I can by myself, like quit using Sass and Svelte in favor of plain CSS and vanilla JS, and also self-host it instead of relying on a VPS. And that's not even mentioning the dependencies of the API, which is made in Rust and its less mature ecosystem
I think that the path to software preservation is a long long road
Well, I think it is. Although they tend to refer to them as Linux-powered, which is still the same but with a hyphen
>Well, Explorer is the core part of the most of Windows SKUs, yet when the Explorer is at fault - it's Windows fault and goes in the stats, while millions of infected Android phones suddenly doesn't because it's not Linux, it's Android (emphasis mine). Kindergarten level of logic, yet used by grown-ass men.
Yeah, probably those things come mostly from how widely present are both Windows and Android on people's lives. It's a media preference since it wont't get you many clicks to say that there was an error on Explorer :P
Still, Android is a Linux distribution until they find a new kernel
Normally, when it comes to CVEs you tend to see it targeted to the affected piece. E.g.: CVE-2022-38533 affecting GNU binutils and CVE-2023-25139 affecting sprintf() in glibc. Those two things are core parts of most Linux distributions, yet they are still their own distinct thing.
The fact that many times the accused piece of software is Android (like in CVE-2022-20472 or CVE-2023-21079) is just a testament of how big of a monolithic most of the Android userspace is, without ceasing to be a Linux disribution.
>But that doesn't make "an operating system distribution based on Linux kernel with system instrumentation and userspace common to other popular operating systems based on Linux kernel" equal to "Linux distribution" or "Linux".
Well, that's precisely one of the arguments[0] used in favor of naming some Linux distributions as GNU/Linux:
>Since a long name such as GNU/X11/Apache/Linux/TeX/Perl/Python/FreeCiv becomes absurd, at some point you will have to set a threshold and omit the names of the many other secondary contributions. There is no one obvious right place to set the threshold, so wherever you set it, we won't argue against it.
So, it IS a Linux distribution with other userspace that's not made by GNU. What some people call non-GNU/Linux. Distributions like Alpine for example would also be it.
>The same applies to Android, if you swap the Linux kernel to something else, eg to OpenBSD kernel, would you tell what your smartphone is now running on OpenBSD? No, it's still Android, though with OpenBSD kernel.
Nobody says that it wouldn't, and it also would be true for other Linux distributions. Remember Debian GNU/kFreeBSD?[0]
Now, you could argue that someone who's using the terminal in Debian GNU/kFreeBSD would notice that it's not in fact Linux, but that's a matter of expertise (not every Linux user relies on the terminal), and that's also true for Android.
On the other hand, it's a fascinating topic on a technical level and I wouldn't compare it to other system exploits that you may witness in real life of people taking advantage.
Didn't the machines ended up creating more jobs than there were before even taking into account the lost ones? They had a point, until it turned out they were wrong.
Also, wasn't innovation getting in the way of other jobs since before? Didn't Uber and similar applications end up becoming competition for the taxis? In my country taxi drivers were protesting for those apps to be banned, yet they couldn't compete with the convenience and safety of the apps. And before that, weren't horse-drawn carriage drivers protesting against cars?
Anyways, the confusion between what's an emulator and what's a simulator is not uncommon.
If I'm going to be bound by the limitations of how immature WebAssembly is right now, I'd at least use its more mature ecosystem for development, which is Rust. And actually, I recently began doing so in my free time with a framework named Yew[1].
I know that it's unrealistic to expect Python to be a first-class citizen in browsers as JS is, but at some point we'll grow tired of reading "X language is now available for browsers" when it's more like "X can do WASM now".
edit: Anyway, I don't want to come off as under-appreciative of PyScript. I'm sure a lot of people will love it and make it grow a lot. I'd probably give it a try someday too. Props to the developers!
