I do wonder still if the country is better off. Billionaires investing in an area tends to skyrocket rent, housing tax from greedy councils, and skews food and utilities upwards too.

The loss of the richest man in the village might mean the baker now has to kowtow his prices to his less well-to-do neighbours again


Seriously as someone who grew up in the Bay Area. I am here for the weather, family and friends. I don't care if billionaires leave and real estate prices normalize at the cost of a bunch of tech jobs.

That said I wish we would take a look at spending before we just keep raising taxes and then a year later saying "how are we gonna get even more money?". California has an insane amount of wealth per person and one of the highest state tax rates. Can they really not figure out how to operate with their current budget?


I had to check if the author was Alphapapa

I love Guile over Nix syntax, but the one killer feature Nix has that Guix doesn’t is making a single static binary of common programs and then deploying them elsewhere.

In Nix, this is a single flag. In Guix, you either deploy with all libraries on a custom /guix path, or nothing.


How do you do it in nix?

Sounds like nix-bundle, but that's not a standard feature.

    nix build nixpkgs#pkgsStatic.emacs
So, it's not so much a static build from a flag, as it is a large corpus of statically defined recipes independent from the other packages that you can build from


No, it produces a tree of libraries that you have to untar on the host machine. If you dont have root, then unpacking to /gnu/store is impossible

I checked and it looks like the root-required issue has been addressed with a --relocatable flag, and there are a few options as well for needing to untar, e.g. producing an appimage format output.

I think I tried with this flag, but either it was incompatible with a cross-compile target, or it did not support my target arch properly

Vulture culture: always was, always will be.

At least we got some decent side discussions in the small spaces during the interim


It's also a big bloatey gas bag that needs constant de-farting to function

So essentially a cow?

Oh horses fart a lot too.

Horses poop a lot. A lot.

I had to search about and it's indeed a lot:

"it is quite normal for a horse to poo (defecate) 8-12 times a day and produce anywhere from 13 to 23 kilograms of poo a day."

Source: https://www.ranvet.com.au/horse-poo/



That's what you get when your primary source of nutrition is very calorie-poor and largely indigestible.

Yup. I’ve noticed that with my dog going to meat from kibble. Poop sizes reduced by 80%.

So Red Dead Redemption 2 was actually realistic? I always wondered why the horses were pooping all the time. It's because of AI.

More than pooping a lot, they literally cannot hold it. Humans don't poop that much, but imagine if everyone just did it on the floor at a moment's notice regardless of where they are

Same with Naruto. Naruto and Sasuke are both essentially nepo babies inheriting these amazing powers and breaking barriers on day one. They fall down, but get up like its a scratch.

Meanwhile, Sakura, born of no remarkable parentage and easily sidelined plays an initial supporting role to these two egomaniacs.

But, she uses what little power she has and finesses it to medical precision.

She still fails, but I care about her battles a lot.


It's really sad that Kishimoto so terrible at writing female characters. I'm not being a hater when I say this, he has even complained about this himself!

In terms of character concepts he's always really great - Naruto is one of the few series I read almost from the start, all the way to the finish. At the beginning of the series the concept for all male and female characters started out really interesting. But the female characters barely got any development compared to the male ones, and it got worse as the series went on. Partially because it ended up focusing more and more on Naruto and Sasuke, partially because the majority of the female character development was reduced to how they relate to the male characters.

I don't think it's intentional or that Kishi has any malice towards women or anything - if that was the case I doubt he would have been able to come up with interesting character concepts for women in the first place. But the fact that they're sidelined like that still sucks, especially since the potential is there.

I'm glad that Sakura got to be a bad-ass in a few of the side-stories after the main series ended at least.


I constantly get the impression that it's a yaoi manga dressed up as a shonen, and so from that perspective I can understand why women may not be the focus.

Naruto and Sasuke spend much of the entire series pining after each other, and when they do finally - uhm - "resolve their differences", the show tacks on two female counterparts to marry them off to like an afterthought.

I don't blame Kishimoto for this, I blame the shonen crowd more for shaping their expectations on what is clearly a yaoi story


OMG that's amazing. This is the first time I hear that take but I can actually see it, hahaha. They did have each other's first kiss after all, lmao.

Having said that, the whole issue with the women is that they're flat romantic characters most of the time (or, apparently, beards) instead of being allowed to pass the Bechdel test. I don't think being a yaoi manga really excuses that (although I can't say I've ever read any so I can't really comment on its genre conventions - surely there are female friends in the better written ones though?)


This is pretty nice! I was quite impressed with the colour mixing one in particular

(At the same time I was reminded a bit by the subtext of the web series Don't Hug Me I'm Scared, especially when pumping the heart to deliver body's needed cargo, like aspic and white sauce -- but that's just my brainrot showing)

I can imagine this being pretty fun on a tablet


yes. This was designed for the Ipad

I love tree-sitter+eglot but a few of the languages/schemes I work in, simply don't have parsers:

    > pacman -Ssq tree-sitter
    tree-sitter
    tree-sitter-bash
    tree-sitter-c
    tree-sitter-cli
    tree-sitter-javascript
    tree-sitter-lua
    tree-sitter-markdown
    tree-sitter-python
    tree-sitter-query
    tree-sitter-rust
    tree-sitter-vim
    tree-sitter-vimdoc

Where's R, YAML, Golang, and several others?

Most of them are in the language pack (https://github.com/Goldziher/tree-sitter-language-pack)

For others, this is a sub optimal answer, but I’ve played with generating grammars with latest llms and they are surprisingly good at doing this (in a few shots).

That being said, if you’re doing something more serious than syntax highlighting or shipping it in a product, you’ll want to spend more time on it.


Go is here: https://github.com/tree-sitter/tree-sitter-go Try google, the others are probably out there as well.

In my emacs configuration, I have the following parsers installed:

awk bash bibtex blueprint c c-sharp clojure cmake commonlisp cpp css dart dockerfile elixir glsl gleam go gomod heex html janet java javascript json julia kotlin latex lua magik make markdown nix nu org perl proto python r ruby rust scala sql surface toml tsx typescript typst verilog vhdl vue wast wat wgsl yaml



Uhh… The fact that there's no Archlinux package for a given language doesn't imply there's no tree-sitter support (official or 3rd-party) for that language? See e.g. the very long list of languages on https://github.com/Goldziher/tree-sitter-language-pack , which does include R, YAML, Golang, and many more.

it does suggest lack of mature support though, and it breaks your configs if you want to rely on system libraries

tree-sitter-yaml definitely exists[1]. Presumably nobody has packaged it for Arch yet; that seems like a thing you could contribute.

[1]: https://github.com/tree-sitter-grammars/tree-sitter-yaml


It's in the AUR (aur/tree-sitter-yaml), a community-driven repository of Arch Linux packages. Not yet official.

Since it comes from `tree-sitter-grammars/tree-sitter-yaml`, it may be quick to integrate the official repo.


Odd, yaml-ts-mode exists? Did they change how it gets its parser?

It's a vampire economy. No one has any new ideas
