Not a direct answer, but I highly recommend reading Outlive, by Peter Attia. It’s completely changed the way I think about these things. And it’s actually grounded in science.

I use World Poker. Not FOSS, unfortunately.

I think you might want to go through a python tutorial before you start on coding game. It can get frustrating if you don’t know the basics.

I’m participating! Codingame is a lot of fun, I highly recommend it.

Is posix still relevant in any way?

So, what’s next? A coalition of pro-europe parties? Along which line? I’m mostly interested in what we can expect in terms of environmental policy. I fear a step back…

Thank you!!!

No 😁

It’s just a funny video from LinkedIn or TikTok

Lisp is the only one I haven’t learned yet 😁

Rust, haskell, python, c++ are all interesting choices. I would argue that c# is too close to what you already know to be interesting.

If I were you though, I’d pick a project first, then decide what language makes sense for it.

I am really conflicted about this. On one hand I get that green policies are instrumental in stopping climate change before it’s too late. On the other I know some people who work in the automotive industry and they all agree that we shot ourselves in the foot with this regulation. We ended up being the only committed nation block (whatever) while anyone else (namely China, India and the USA) kept doing little or nothing, token contributions if any, but few long run plans like we did.

Someone needs to lead the way. How is being more virtuous shooting ourselves in the foot, exactly?

Well, this should give them some motivation.

It seems like a lot of people think Palestine needs to do stuff but Israel doesn’t. I’m not sure if it’s a double standard, racism, Israeli exceptionalism or what.

In my case, it’s none of that. It’s your question: “how can Palestine gain its freedom”.

Now let’s be crazy for a moment and imagine that both sides collaborate to fix the issue. I think it would be mostly the same for Israel: get rid of the lunatics, realize that Palestinians are fairly close relatives, work on forgiveness on both sides, and work on a fair two-state solution or even better a single-state solution.

Here’s my take on it:

1. Get rid of all extremists and violent factions internally (extremely hard, of course).
2. Engage in intense diplomatic lobbying, and be patient. If step 1) has been achieved, I think it would be extremely hard for Israel to resist the pressure, but maybe I’m too naive. Right now, it’s extremely easy to dismiss the Palestinian cause because of terrorism. What happened at the beginning of the conflict isn’t going to help.

Are you really sure? 😂

Am I the only one to still use regular vim? I tried to switch to Neovim a few years ago, but there were a few things I didn’t like, so I switched back. Vim has improved tremendously, so I no longer feel a need to switch. With LSP and Copilot, I feel that I am close to the optimal dev environment these days…

WHAT? Where is the next one planned to take place?

Not really. People in developed countries need to divide their emissions by approximately ten times. Every little bit helps. And we should start with the easy ones.

Usain bolt, to some extent

They are obvious because they are rarely irreplaceable. We can live without mass tourism and fast deliveries.
