  • But then that’s me sending a message to past me and the messages can only go as far back as today, so that’s like me writing a message right now and then reading it right now.

    So I need to be able to meet with the assassin and somehow send a message with location and date so that past me can avoid it. Repeat until the 7 days end.

    I guess I’m also not smart enough. Sigh… Past self, I tried, but I don’t understand the rules, so we’re dead now.





  • Well, OP mentions he cannot install software on the machine, so I think that already blocks anything depending on lsp.

    My experience is mostly from doing linux kernel programming on remote baremetal machines. I use ccls + eglot locally and have fiddled a lot with tramp, which is really good when it does work, but also tends to trip over bad connections.

    I’ve also wrote all sorts of elisp hacks to be able to access the remote machine via tramp but have all code navigation commands apply to a local repository replica where the lsp server runs. My use case was similar to OP but the machines were not x86_64, so there wasn’t even any lsp ported.

    So yeah, my gut feeling having dealt with similar issues is that it’s not worth it, YMMV.






  • The post: A picture of bowing nurses in a hospital with the caption: “Chinese Doctors bow down to an 11-year-old boy with brain cancer who saved several lives by donating his organs.He wanted to give another people a second chance he never got”

    The comment: “ok, let me position myself… 3…2…1… bow everyone!”

    The point being that these idiots obviously either bowed just for the camera or had to organise to recreate the bowing moment, both of which are absurd.








  • It’s great that you like VR and want other people to try it. But when someone asks for a recommendation, you can’t just attempt to drag them into your own world like that, c’mon. VR is expensive, cumbersome, needs extra space in the house, has very few games (actual games) worth playing, etc. It’s an amazing immersive technology, yes. But a 30yo that never touched a game before? There’s very little in terms of gaming on any VR platform for them to experience, instead there’s a lot of VRing, which I think misses the point of this thread.



  • It’s always been this way. Except that it was kernel developers arguing with kernel developers over C code. Now it’s relative newcomers arguing with kernel developers over Rust code that the kernel devs don’t necessarily care about. Of course it’s going to be a mess.

    A fork is of course possible, but operating systems are huge and very complex, you really don’t want to alienate these folks that have been doing exclusively this for 30 years. It would be hard to keep the OS commercially viable with a smaller group and having to do both the day to day maintenance, plus the rewrite. It’s already difficult as it is currently.

    Rust will be a huge success in time, long after the current names have lost their impetus. This is not a “grind for 4 years and it’s done” project.
