I work for a company creating a recommendations algorithm. Eventually, we'll be training it to respond to user's past choices, but until the users have made any choices, we're feeding it our own recommendations. So, the whole thing is fundamentally based on our biases.
Is this wrong? What, do you think, are our obligations to our users?

I've kept my work laptop on Mojave because I still need a 32 bit application: Lilypond. But I think I'll switch to linux in for the long term, as my organization may use a remote machine for building apps (and XCode hasn't been very coorperative anyways).
Others may want to hold out for better support of running mac apps from https://darlinghq.org

So, I guess I'm looking for a small computer which has a pci slot or mini pci slot, (I'm not looking for a laptop form factor), then I just need to buy one of those cards. I would hope to get something <$50, though my alternative is stringing ethernet cables across the house so the setup would be useful.

Big ups, Google, for having an engineer who can converse among the best.

I see... I tried it with a raspberry pi 3 some months ago without success. Are there any resources (besides the source code) that might help with WiFi card support?

@sir
Cool, but can it connect to wifi?

Well, I'm late to the party, but already have some (original, never-before-seen) content:

Action Jones (The Story of a Lost Piece of Cultural History)
How a (formerly) online webseries captured my imagination, and the grief of its loss to the world.

Exhibit A: those "soph" videos.

Started teaching myself how to use #sway this morning. Window manipulation feels fun. (I've always tended to organize windows in a tiling way).
Still need to port my xfce-shiftit script over (is there a command to get the current window's width?)
Also, I'm not sure about one thing: can you have a tabbed window inside a tiled layout? It's simple with programs that have tabs baked into them, but I want to have an alacritty window with multiple alacritty tabs.

Just make your whole paragraph a link. There's no shame in that, and it makes it easier to click!
