If you are a emacs user try the lesser know pdf-tools mode. Its amazing.

I could not find that in urban dictionary or google results.Is this commonly used in free software or open software mailing lists or did you just guessed it ?

Emacs, org-mode, pdf-tool, org-roam. You are set for next 2 decades IMO for personal knowledge management.

> I seldomly hear this property mentioned by anyone else, so even if it scratches OT-ness

What does "OT-ness" stand for ?

Could this be the reason for John Carmack leaving facebook

Why do this at all ? This just promotes Nationalism and unwanted hatred.

No amount of revolutions can change the conflicts in the Islamic world. What is required is to reform the Islam version 2.0

The main idea of Emacs is unlike other ide's it can be customized greatly to specific users, but Doom Emacs seems to be a ready made configuration. It seems to be opposite of the main idea behind Emacs, yet Doom Emacs seems to be getting popular. Is there anything i am missing.

Reminding that everything is temporary

I guess in few months the question will be "What tech companies does not allow fully remote ?

I don't get how WFH is related to not caring(or caring) about blue collar employees. If anything the demand for housing reduces and the rent goes down.

For middle manager's WFH is terrible. They can't account their time for what they did. For everyone else its great.

For parents its great. Parents get to spend commute time with childrens.

For developers its just amazing. I can't stress this enough. You get uninterrupted time to design or coding in the zone

For hardware startups it might not work, but software its already proven by wordpress, gitlab and many others.

Budding engineers can always think before asking senior devs and learn how to ask questions.

Most importantly WFH is great to fight against age bias. For any one over 30 this is huge win.

Considering ageism in the software industry Remote work feels like a boon. Not to mention the uninterrupted productive work you can do. Remote work is bad only for the middle managers who don't know how to account for their time.

If one is 40 and adding 4 years is 44, that's a lot of valuable years to be productive cognitively.

Did the ban go through court process or its imposed by ruling party decision ?

On YouTube at least the user has the option to search and subscribe the videos, there by controlling what is shown, it is not the same with TikTok

Freedom is not free, that's a given.

Based on past experience in understanding other cultures as an outsider, i am pretty sure there is something else for disliking Mandela which can only be explained by a person from within who understands the different sections of the South Africa. Can someone shed light on this ? The above argument is very weak.

> private science-funding organization.

I don't know why this should not be opposed, stalinist may be.

"Nelson Mandela" in the same line as "Genghis Khan". I am puzzled. That doesn't seem right. Citation Needed.

Citation Needed

The internet was originally that pre 2010's

How is hiding information help. There will always be distracting news.

Thanks. I thought i am missing something fundamental in English Grammar.

> Ah yes, let's pretend you can't tell someone is from south Asia or Caucasian.

Its not about the way people look, its about their belief, Islam prohibits very seriously about blasphemy and that's why even the intelligent people can not help but comply. The same is not true about other religions.

The probability of that minor inconvenience is very low and i am going to order Pi's. Today i saw the following news and i don't want this to happen to my country(or any other).

I have a lot of bandwidth but don't want to spend money on hosting. Has anyone successfully hosted on rasberry pi ?

The screen shot at the bottom of the post is an i3 window manager with title bar hidden. Did not knew titlebar can be hidden in i3 window manager. Its 2 line configuration https://gist.github.com/lirenlin/9892945.

I was a polar bookshelf user until i discovered emacs pdf-tools mode https://github.com/politza/pdf-tools .

Anyone spending a lot of time on pdf's should definitely checkout emacs pdf-tools mode https://github.com/politza/pdf-tools . In the past i was recommending polar app, but emacs pdf-tools trumps in comparison. Emacs pdf-tools mode has lesser memory footprint is much faster and above all does not have restrict any features.
