No, not PDF, only HTML. There are community companion programs like SuperMemo Assistant, that enhance SM, but it‘s all fiddly.

I paid for two SM versions and went back to Anki. It‘s very idiodyncratic, the user interface is atrocious (in the latest version it finally, finally added thumbs up/down icons for grading the answer —- before that you had to remember whether 1 is good and 5 is bad or vice versa).

SM is fascinating (including task management, sleep cycle tracker etc.), but it‘s held back by its technological choices (only support for Edge or IE, and Edge only in the newest version), and for incremental reading you‘ll be mostly ingesting Wikipedia articles, because PDF isn‘t supported.

We‘ve got Rust fanfic now?

And https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=43991221 is the equivalent to Harry-slash-Snape?

Learning the fundamentals.

Germany puts all aspiring naval officers through a tour on the Gorch Fock.

It‘s kot just culture, although those ships also serve as excellent ambassadors to far-flung countries.

Download a binary release of ollama and show that line again.

Funny how all those large companies are spending hundreds of thousands of dollars a year getting those attributions right. All those open source license information pages like https://sieportal.siemens.com/oss/oss.html are just for fun, right?

The need to extract license and copyright information for binary distribution is universally accepted among Open Source license compliance practitioners and lawyers.

There is a whole industry of tools around it (Fossid, Fossa, BlackDuck, Snyk), as well as Open Source projects ( FOSSology, scancode, oss-review-toolkit).

Re: Debian, they have copyright files in their packaged that are manually curated by Debian Developers and should include all those license texts and copyright notices.

They need to supply license text and copyright notice with the binary distribution, as well.

Many, many projects on GitHub don’t do it and are not license compliant.

Fifteen minutes late used to be the academic standard in Germany (and other countries): it was noted by “c.t.” in the timetable, meaning “cum tempore”.

When I studied it had already been mostly abolished. Sometimes starting times were explicitly marked “sine tempore”.

> but some people pointed out the use of dashes

That’s a stupid heuristic. I use those dashes all the time, I even have an AutoHotKey macro in Windows for en and em dashes, ellipsis and other characters.

> The traditional YaST stack is retired

> The former Labour foreign secretary David Miliband put it well this week at Chatham House, saying:

No Chatham House Rules anymore at Chatham House?

Nothing in the article is about Apple or App Stores.

CryptPad is developed by XWiki as a side project.

German. "seit" for both.

Macron. France and Andorra.

2018: "Redis will remain BSD licensed"

2024: "dual RSALv2 and SSPLv1 license"

2025: "available under the AGPLv3 open source license"

Yes, that's great and all, but next month you're probably going to write a bespoke license in iambic pentameter or so.

"Lately" is a funny word when your account is thirty days old.

There are monthly "who wants to be hired" threads. Please use those.

Other than that, if you have interesting projects, blog posts etc., that kind of promotion is always welcome, as long as you don't exclusively submit your own stuff one after the other.

It doesn't seem to harm you, trademark issues seem not to be your priority there, and do you really want everyone to mail you asking for permission and/or instructions how to download? I guess the Google thing saves you some trouble.

It would have been nice to coordinate that with you, though.

They've recently switched from an ancient Java 8 (and nothing newer working) to Java 21.

Let's editorialize submission titles for clickbait.

Yes, the NASA one, but I'm pretty sure OSI made a mistake and will at some point strike it from their list.

> It's not publicly known exactly how rich the Catholic Church is, as its wealth is wrapped in assets like real estate and art, but estimates suggest it's worth at least $10 to $15 billion.

That's laughable. The diocese of Paderborn alone, which is the richest diocese in Germany, is estimated to have 7.5 billion Euros. Cologne and Munich are also very rich.

The definitions for Free and Open Source Software are semantically identical.

The movements have differing philosophical and political stances, but Free Software is automatically also Open Source Software, and vice versa.

Free Software nd Open Source Software are the same.

You're thinking of copyleft licenses, not Free Software.

That's why it's good that GC algorithms that do not "stop the world" have been in production for decades now.
