Stumbled upon this video. Seems really interesting. SPJ is really enjoyable to listen to, as always.

    I'm kind of a beginner... Can someone explain why you would make/use/have a dynamically and/or weak typed language? Is it just to not write some toInteger / as u64 / try_from()? I mean the drawbacks seem to outweigh the benefits...

    The video I posted, which got -32 and counting, but which is from, I would say, a reputable source, claims that the UK was not able to produce evidence that Russia was already using Uranium before giving Uranium to Ukraine. (if I remember correctly) But no one F-fing watches it :P

    BTW I totally understand Ukraine using them. I am skeptical about others providing them...

    -You know, he's got emotional problems, man.

    -You mean... beyond pacifism?

    -He's fragile. Very fragile.

    -Huh... I did not know that.

    OK. I understand this, but you shouldn't accuse people who are concerned about a war or hope for peace of being pro-Putin... Nothing I said, or the video said, is remotely pro-Putin... You instantly made me your enemy, equating me to people who support the opposite side. When things are most emotional one should be careful not to let their feelings cloud their judgment...

    WTF is this "I am going to say this again so that you understand"? lol You wanna fistfight or something? You wanna measure our degrees? Please be more polite... I didn't say anything insulting or even extreme, neither did the news clip. You did earlier when you accused me of being pro-Putin for being concerned about fucking Uranium being used in a war which, I assume, is far closer to my home than yours... Also, by your attitude bad scientist.

    I said "watch the news clip before commenting" because it has American vets being poisoned in Iraq, but I guess you didn't watch either...

    Odd thing to fixate on what? What Uranium is? An American soldiers getting sick from Uranium in Iraq? Learning things? That means you're sympathetic to Putin?

    I read We before I read 1984 when I was young and I thought it was amazing. I would add that it's also kind of sci-fi.

    I disagree. It's very detailed and I think it can both help a novice and help a novice become less of a novice.

    It's kind of funny, but also holding someone's hand does not mean you are sexually attracted to them. It's kind of heteronormative assuming someone is homosexual because they hold the hand of someone of the same sex. Don't impose your norms of self expression to others...

    I like GNOME because I don't want customizability.

    OK, I like a bit of customizability, but I'm not a designer and trying to make things look consistent and nice is a pain. I once spent days making an icon theme work in Xfce (the freedesktop standards for naming icons are not followed by anyone... (meaning both Xfce and icon themes))

    I use GNOME as is and accept it and everything is swell.

    Also I use a laptop and I'm addicted the three-finger swipe window preview...

    The *NIX philosophy, that you describe, is having a bunch of small programs do specific tasks. Monolithic means having one large thing do all the tasks. Maybe the confusion comes from the fact that the Linux kernel is monolithic. They tried to make a FOSS Unix clone before Linux was a thing, but I think they failed (see GNU Hurd). What it means for a kernel to be monolithic or not, I have no idea... I assume the same, but on the kernel level.

    Has anyone used Lapce? Is it any good?

    I use Emacs, but only because I don't want to use VSCode (spyware) or VSCodium (even that [does not get all the telemetry out by default](https://github.com/VSCodium/vscodium/blob/master/DOCS.md#disable-telemetry), and anyway, it's like using Chromium...). But Emacs is NOT good for my OCD... Too much time configuring things I don't really care about. And I don't code as much as actual (professionals) programmers (I'm a mathematician), so I basically use my mouse a lot... Anyway has anyone tried [Lapce](https://lapce.dev/)? Is it any good?

    Rocky Linux is for-profit! I'd chose AlmaLinux

    I was curious why CERN and Fermilab chose AlmaLinux instead of Rocky Linux. After googling, I found out that the Rocky Enterprise Software Foundation, which controls Rocky Linux, is a [public-benefit corporation](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Benefit_corporation). This is a for-profit type of corporation, unlike what the name suggests. The AlmaLinux OS Foundation is a 501\(c)(6) non-profit, which in my mind is clearly the type of organization that should control such an OS.
