After setting up dkim, dmarc, etc. I've had no problems in the past decade except for one person using aol. I told him that his email was broken and if he wanted to receive my email he needed to fix it. I don’t count such things as deliverabilty problems, but as receivability problems on the other end.

I’ve never sent any kind of bulk email and I suppose my host has a good IP. Everything I do depends critically on email deliverability, often to addresses I’ve never sent to before, so if I had a problem I would certainly know about it.

“my emails are just not delivered anymore. I might as well not have an email server.”

FUD. I and many others on HN run our own email servers with essentially no delivery problems.

https://hn-ai.org/ features a quality index showing how much had to be filtered out.

“I miss what HN was before Ai and LLMs started dominating everything!”

This might be your solution:

Thanks for making that website. I used examples from it in the first day of my statistics course ("by the end of this course you won't make these kinds of mistakes").

And the one I use and love: DWM.

(which I use on top of Pop!_OS, oddly enough).

I use Android, but this is me, too. I keep it until the battery goes bad or until it breaks.

Posting this kind of slop should be a banning offense. Also: https://hn-ai.org/

One should not neglect the power of the /etc/hosts file. I use one from https://someonewhocares.org/hosts/. I don’t bother with browser extensions; I never see ads.

One advantage of the patches not working is that manually applying a patch (usually quite simple) brings you some familiarity with the code. In my case this let me make my own modifications that were not available as patches. Altering window manager code is fun!

And while you have a good point, I don’t think this is what most people have in mind when they use the term “bitrot” (but I could be wrong). I say this because dwm as supplied continues to work perfectly without modification. The patches are enhancements contributed by third parties (as far as I know) and, as you’ve discovered, are not maintained.

(Also, once you have a working, patched dwm, it should continue to work forever, even if the patches that you used may no apply automatically to future versions of the base dwm.)

> All of the X11 based WMs are slowly bit-rotting.

was the statement I was replying to. In 10 years of using dwm I've not been aware of any bitrot that affects me. Certainly nome in the WM itself.

I use dwm. There is no bitrot.

I think you're right, but for different reasons: http://progressive.org/op-eds/let-cut-our-losses-on-fusion-e...

That chaconne is one of my favorite pieces of all time. I heard it first on guitar, played by Segovia, and, probably because of that, still prefer it on guitar to the original violin. I even used to play it, pretty decently, I think.

She is amazing. Brings out the lines with such clarity.

I just tried compiling using Core.println and still got a 92MB build directory.

I've seen it several times used by writers about photography.

More examples? Any undergraduate text in thermodynamics. The entire way the subject is taught depends on treating differentials as numbers. Even in partial derivatives.

I don’t intend to be hostile here, but I’m genuinely curious: why does anyone find these kinds of observations about the output of LLMs even remotely interesting or worthy of comment?

Ah, yes, I see now. I can’t imagine using a programming language where I had to compose symbols vertically. I don’t know if any such infernal language exists, and I don’t understand why o11c thinks it matters.

George Antheil’s autobiography, Bad Boy of Music, is quite entertaining. In it he recounts his adventures related to this patent. If I recall correctly (I read it decades ago but I think I’m right here), he describes a close and co-equal collaboration with his friend Hedy Lamarr on this invention. Therefore I think these remarks by the author:

‘Since the actual invention is a player-piano-like mechanism, and since experimental musician George Antheil had expertise in the inner workings of player pianos, and further since Hedy Lamarr evidently had no such expertise, it may be more appropriate to call the Lamarr-Antheil patent “Antheil’s patent.”’

are inappropriate and unjustified.

APL

The Charlie Chaplin film Modern Times has a hilarious example.

Definitely. I use KittyTerminalImages.jl often, and also the image.nvim plugin for embedding images into a Markdown or other buffer in Neovim: https://github.com/3rd/image.nvim

Seems to be the complement of https://hn-ai.org/

Julia

All except maybe the compile times. I read the beginning of the article about the features of Uv; Julia has all that built in.

I’m not criticizing the non-paying users. But I wouldn’t go so far as to call those who pay when they don’t have to “suckers”. I don’t think I’m a sucker for tipping people when I don’t have to, or for dropping money in a street musician’s hat. I’m happy to pay for what I’ve received, when I can.

Interesting argument.
