• Great I just ordered 6 boxes of Chilean rose
• You mean Chilean rosé, right? … please tell me you mean Chilean rosé

Are you suggesting crows are not proud of it?

Was this written by the mentioned multi-layer perceptron?

English is long overdue for a spelling reform, but just taking all fancy looking characters from other germanic languages is not the way

FYI If you don’t have any connective tissue between your breasts, ovaries and womb you might have a problem. Your doctor should check you for vitamin deficiency

Cursor is not really anything that I feel a need to customize. It’s a pointer that changes shape according to context, and the default implementations usually do it at least decently.

TIL Winamp was still active as a project

Not hands. Tongue

There’s probably some link between human genetics and psychology. It makes sense knowing how other mammals work. However the studies are overwhelmingly so flawed and irreproducible that the entire field can be dismissed

Alpine for example uses musl, and Gentoo offers it as an option.
I don’t completely understand the benefits, my own programming experience is several layers away from inner workings of an OS, but at least some distros claim there is space for improvement.

The role of a distribution is to curate packages - select the right combination of versions and verify if it works together. Providing package repositories is also a big one, imagine if you had to compile everything on your machine yourself on every update (khm gentoo khm).

Other than that there isn’t really a lot of space for innovation. After you have a kernel, some base packages, package manager, and maybe a DE, you can install everything else yourself.
The main point of differentiation these days in on the package management side - do you want a rolling release, or a more conservative approach.

There is one point of innovation left, but it highly technical and somewhat risky for everyday users - libc alternatives. The C standard library is one of the few core packages in a distro that can’t really be replaced by the user.

First 20 patients died until the surgeon learned how to do it, next 20 survived. Technically it’s 50% survival rate

Rotting flesh? … You should probably go to a doctor

Mastercard pie?

2 billion years ago a random mutation caused a local optimum in gene recombination and now we need to have gender studies

It started with “we have no idea how they did it”. Then over time it morphed into “we have several hypotheses but don’t know if it any of those is realistic”. The current state of things is still there regarding the construction technique itself.

In the meantime the village where construction workers lived has been found. Now we know the profile or people who built the pyramids, how they lived and what they ate. Even some details about work organization.

All of this still didn’t propagate into the popular culture which is still stuck in the 1980s regarding pyramid knowledge.

Is the paper itself product of a PhD study?

I hear this criticism all the time, but I’ve never seen it happen in 5 companies I’ve worked for so far. Usually there’s an understanding that estimates are wild guessing, and things are planned using dependencies rather than timeliness.
