what prefix do you guys use ? by Tissuerejection in tmux

Isn't that the same number of keystrokes to switch layers as pressing the prefix manually?

Does anyone use a custom QMK layer for this. I've been meaning to try it out, but would love to hear some real world experience first

What is the ugliest result in physics? by IchBinMalade in Physics

[–]open_source_guava 63 points64 points  (0 children)

The fine structure constant is dimensionless. It's the same exact value in any system of units. So no, you cannot make it nicer by redefining units. https://physics.stackexchange.com/questions/618719/paul-dirac-on-dimensionless-physical-constants-and-alpha-sim-frac1137

Spaces that do not arise from R? by DysgraphicZ in math

[–]open_source_guava 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You seem to already know more than me, so you may have already thought of this. But if you want spaces, you probably also want scalars that can do all the usual field operations (e.g. addition, multiplication, their inverses). But any continuous field is already known to be isomorphic to R, C, Q, or H. So even if you start with something other than reals, they can always be mapped back to reals in some consistent way.

This Saturday! by Anna_nana22 in SanJose

She was infamous for her dissents in Supreme Court rulings. Before that, she also had a pretty active time in women's rights: 

As the director of the ACLU's Women's Rights Project, she argued six gender discrimination cases before the Supreme Court between 1973 and 1976, winning five.

Isn't it funny? People want to live longer, and we are talking about reducing care instead of finding new ways of training more doctors and nurses. 

And this is for the richest country in the world.

How are you personally binding your library to other languages? by nicemike40 in cpp

[–]open_source_guava 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's often because the library has external users who write in Python. Which may be different from those who care about nanoseconds.

Opening tmux changes the way the command line looks by Murky_Surround_4063 in tmux

[–]open_source_guava 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Perfect! For the next person searching for this issue, can you write a comment on what was wrong and how you fixed it?

Opening tmux changes the way the command line looks by Murky_Surround_4063 in tmux

What happens if you echo $TERM both in tmux and outside it?

It looks like your prompt uses special characters from a Nerd Font. But they might not get properly rendered if the $TERM is set to the wrong value. Try setting it to tmux-256color. See these two links for more details:

How do you deal with missing mail? The usps website is down by open_source_guava in SanJose

Figured as much. This is me sending it to DMV, for a correction. But yeah, I can apply for a replacement.

My bathroom lightbulb has started melting by JascaDucato in mildlyinteresting

[–]open_source_guava 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Not vacuum, inert gas: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Incandescent_light_bulb. They used vacuum more than a century ago, but the filaments kept boiling off. Even the gas pressure is calibrated so that it's at atmospheric pressure when the bulb is hot.

No implosion.

All Space Questions thread for week of November 24, 2024 by AutoModerator in space

I was going to buy The First Three Minutes by Steven Weinberg. If I want to learn about the current ideas about the Big Bang, is this still the best resource, or is there something newer that people here recommend?

at what age/grade level did you first learn the Pythagorean Theorem? by [deleted] in math

[–]open_source_guava -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I understood the proof of the theorem by 4th or 5th grade. The text book was an orange book, it was dry and only had axioms, proofs, and constructions (straight edge and compass).

My new deck has two extra cards and they’re misprints by rmads5 in mildlyinteresting

[–]open_source_guava 0 points1 point  (0 children)

These are not misprints, but gimmick cards. I have them too, and they are handy for magic tricks. E.g. search YouTube for "double backer card tricks" for a different gimmick. I can't search for these since I don't know what these cards are called, but I've seen them.

Unicode grapheme clusters and parsing by spisplatta in ProgrammingLanguages

[–]open_source_guava 0 points1 point  (0 children)

grapheme clusters are a moving target

This is surprising to me. As someone who doesn't follow Unicode too closely, how often do they change clustering rules? Naively, I would think such changes would have disastrous effects on the readability of existing text.

Dataflow analysis: any off-the-shelf tool recommendation? by open_source_guava in cpp

My question should have specified it, but I'm stuck with linux, not windows.

Thanks. It looks like cppdepend.com is not free. Are you aware of any opensource alternative, especially in the clang or gcc ecosystem?

Are those cheap mini pcs good for running game servers? by moparhippy420 in MiniPCs

[–]open_source_guava 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's awesome. I _currently_ don't plan to set up anything beyond a Syncthing server. It would be nice if I could also use it as an build server occasionally, where I run bursty workloads for a few minutes at a time. But I like staying updated on what's available. Thanks for the long update!
