antback··on You're not uncool. Making friends as an adult is just hard (2021)
In my experience, it is also very difficult. I’m playing tennis for more than a year and it has been almost impossible to make friends. People meet to play and barely shared some words. Same in Yoga classes. In my view, it depends on the personality. For some people is easy to engage, for others it is not.

antback··on Minneapolis driver shot and killed by ICE
I cannot agree more. It is really depressing and terrific reading so many people justifying all these violent acts. Is is inconceivable how we have come to normalize repression and violence against others.

It looks great. A couple of features that would make it truly useful are currently missing:

antback··on Audio Decomposition – open-source seperation of music to constituent instruments
It appears to be related to Polymath.

Polymath is effective at isolating and extracting individual instrument tracks from MP3s. It works very well.

antback··on Trump wins presidency for second time
But that’s precisely the point. If there are new adversaries, new obstacles, it’s essential to work toward becoming stronger, more independent, more prepared and building greater unity among states.

I agree with you, things are looking bad... Today, I'm just trying to be positive. Tomorrow, maybe not ...

antback··on Trump wins presidency for second time
As a European, I’m trying to see the positive side of this situation. Here are a few thoughts:

- It appears that Democrats are often seen as part of an "elite," which makes it difficult for people at home to relate to or understand their message. A full reset might be needed to bridge this gap.

- Europe has long been under the shadow of the United States. Perhaps this could be a good start toward greater independence for Europe.

antback··on Switching to Windows
Nobody talk about doskey. When I started working in windows I missed my aliases that I had in linux. Doskey is a great tool to mimic the functionality. Some example of my aliases:

  edit="%EDITOR%" $\*
  kbs=ag $\* --file-search-regex "\.md$"  "C:\Users\my\Dropbox\MyNotes" 
  pg_start="C:\My Program Files\Scoop\apps\postgresql\current\bin\pg_ctl" start -D "C:\My Program Files\Scoop\apps\postgresql\current\data"
I load the file with the aliases like this:

  doskey /macrofile=C:\Users\me\doskey.cmd
