me: I _think_ I'm done. Let me just run the full test suit one more time to be 100% certain

test: segmentation fault (core dumped)

me: ... ... ... guess not

@gamey, if you're using the mobile patch (originally from pmOS I think), double F11 will effectively turn the current tab into a HUD-free web app (-;

@huy_ngo, Ubuntu Touch is also and option, which is more mature at the time of writing, plus it may run on Android's kernel: devices.ubuntu-touch.io

Please note so far it's just the ui.😅

Don't get me wrong, I've nothing against pattern matching (or the idea of the walrus operator and other recent syntactic changes). My opposition is towards making expressions much less context-free and greatly harm readablity as we progress.

I get it, languages blend, but we're taking it to the extreme by practically creating another C++ by trying to add language features while desperately maintaining backward-compatibility.

As of PEP 636, I start to feel is trying a lil bit to hard. At this point it is safe to say both the users and the language designers are actively working to throw the outta the window.

Can't see why not, @huy_ngo. Differences will help you see less obvious insights of design choices.

A quick update to the GNOME Maps info bubbles I recently redesigned--they're now adaptive for your favorite mobile Linux device! jwestman.net/2021/02/10/gnome-

Thank you for pointing these out, @brainwane. I was caught up by the thought of boards using this as some sort of score to force people to talk more than what they're comfortable with that I failed to see valid use cases d-;

While are Guile and Rakudo so outdated, CodeChef? Without recent compiler optimization, there's no use making Scheme or Raku an option because all your users get will be TLEs.

@brainwane, cooperations will always find a way to abuse statistics, don't give them ideas (-; BTW do you have any idea why this feature was added into Jitsi in the first place? I can't figure in which circumstance it's useful (in a non-creepy way).

Finally get back to doing after a long break for almost a year. CodeChef certainly doesn't disappoint:

random nerd tip of the day. The broadway backend (broadwayd in the libgtk-3-bin package) allows you to ran a GTK app in a (remote) browser:

broadwayd&
GDK_BACKEND=broadway gedit

and admire gedit with http://PINEPHONE:8080

WAs crashing Guix FOSDEM fringe earlier and gotta say at the design level, Big Blue Button works better for asymetric meetings (like ones with a host online lectures) than most video conferencing I've been experiencing so far, free or proprietary.

Yes I'm easily distracted to notice that, expecially when the topic is something I can barely grasp.

Oh they did leave eventually, just a little later than others.
