There is a banner at the top of https://mojolang.org/ saying: `Mojo will be open source soon! Join us at ModCon '26 for an update.`

It’s being speculated that they’ll do the announcement there. :)

NOTE: I submitted this two hours ago with the wrong URL (https://console.modular.com/signup) and it got flagged as a [dupe]. ModCon starts in a little less than two hours and I think many amongst the HN crowd will be interested in it, so please forgive the repost.

Are you aware of this?

Isn't Nvidia's openshell exactly what you're looking for? I'm asking because I'm just learning about this stuff myself and tested openshell yesterday with pi for the first time.

How much RAM does your machine have?

echo IS a function.

What might be confusing to you is that in Nim all three following variations are the same

  echo("foo")
  echo "foo"
  "foo".echo

If you're curious about nim, I can highly recommend "Nim in Action".

Thank you for that tip. I had a lot of screen tearing before I enabled that option. Do you have "Force Full Comoposition Pipeline" enabled or just "Force Composition Pipeline"?

EDIT:

That's helpful! :)

OFFTOPIC: Isn't blue light still best to be avoided as much as possible, as it damages cells in the eye, causing macula degeneration. Please correct me if I'm wrong.

One great aspect is that joplin supports iOS 8+. My Ex needed to write a big dissertation that she just couldn't make progress on (unsurprisingly). Her work laptop is too bulky to carry around every day unfortunately.

So at some point I figured she could use my old ipad mini 1 with a size-fitted logitech "ultrathin keyboard" (that magnetically holds onto the ipad, making it one piece for storage) that I impulse bought and never used. So hardware was there, but looking for a markdown editor that supported sync and that old device + her windows laptop was not fruitful. Except well, short story: joplin is awesome for that.

She could use the ipad to write a few minutes here and there during transit and was able to complete it. The markdown file is then converted to latex/pdf using pandoc + pandoc-citeproc (for citations using a bibtex-file).

Support for antiquated iOS versions is rare (making the ipad mini 1 useless in many cases although it still appears to be a capable device) even though many apps don't seem to have a need for higher versions. I suspect that most apps use frameworks that have a version cutoff to reduce complexity if that even makes sense.

You might like the tldr program:

$ tldr ln

ln

Creates links to files and directories.

- Create a symbolic link to a file or directory: ln -s path/to/file_or_directory path/to/symlink

- Overwrite an existing symbolic to point to a different file: ln -sf path/to/new_file path/to/symlink

- Create a hard link to a file: ln path/to/file path/to/hardlink

First time I hear about compile times being an issue with Rust. Is that a general problem with bigger projects or can you identify language features that add specifically to the problem?

FYI: I just put the PDF on my Kindle Paperwhite and it actually looks like a regular ebook in terms of font size and readability so far.

I started this hobby with an Ender 3 a few months ago. Look into motor dampers. They honestly take away ~90% of the noise and loudness.

I bought these: www.aliexpress.com/item/Funssor-12pcs-lot-NEMA-17-Steel-Rubber-Stepper-Motor-Vibration-Dampers-Imported-genuine-42-stepper-motor/32825669027.html

Make sure you find the right dampers for your motors. Ender 3 uses Nema 17.

Yesterday I came across this post, which might be interesting to you: https://hackaday.com/2017/02/15/chronio-diy-watch-slick-and-...

Actually, if you search for "watch" on that website, you'll find plenty of stuff. Maybe you can find some inspiration there.

Thanks for the info! The book looks interesting.

Do you have an opinion on the fast.ai and deeplearning.ai courses? I finally have some time to work through these and since the deeplearning.ai series starts on December 18th, I'm wondering which one to dive into since I can't tell from the outside how they compare.
