The difference between root systems of natural prairie grass and farmed cereal crops graphically explains how we created the dustbowl...

This is a nice little documentary on planned obsolescence (by the youtube channel Veritasium)

I'm stoked about the availability of this sort of RISC-V product. More diversity in processor architectures is important to me. It's still early of course but very nice to see. May have to add to my CS/dev experiments. Maybe try out getting #dotnet or #kotlin under #linux on it?
♲ @SiFive@twitter.com:

Today, we are pleased to announce the HiFive Unmatched: a new RISC-V developer board! Learn more about our efforts to enable a PC ecosystem for RISC-V in our blog here: hubs.ly/H0yTsFv0 #sifive #riscv #innovation

@kornel Hahaha, yeah well we like #Rust a lot, but we don't believe this a meritable philosophy :D Maybe getting #Guix to be adopted a bit more might help with that problem :)

Tomorrow at 15:00 UTC will be:

- talking about declaritve configuration of userspace software in Guix.

- explaining home-services - main building blocks of user's home environment.

You can now tweak your channels.scm so that "guix pull" only jumps to Guix revisions with available substitutes for package definitions:

(use-modules (guix ci))

A blog built and deployed using #GNU #Guix ? 🤩

Thank you for sharing @mothacehe !!!

La settimana scorsa al baobab di roma, dove si organizzano tra le altre cose mensa e raccolta di vesiti per immigrati, è successo questo. Metto screenshot per evitare di condividere link al post su facebook.

Do I know anyone in the Heidelberg / Mannheim area who needs a 21U server rack (max 500mm-ish depth)? Free for non-profit / educational / … orgs and projects. cc @rixx @leah for visibility

Forks & pull requests versus emails

Nice short (~16m) talk on build system security – trusting trust attacks, reproducible builds & bootstrappable builds.

“V compiles between ≈80k (C backend) and ≈1.2 million (x64 backend) lines of code per second per CPU core.” hmmm

(Besides the language look like an interesting functional-ish variant of Go.)

Fudgel’s Theorem:

Fast compiler,
Fast binary,
Fast programmer.

Pick two.

By the way just blurring faces from demonstrations or actions might not be enough.
