Want to know why I have 500 feet of Ethernet cable now? Listen to the latest episode of #TechnicallyWorking with @damashe and myself. #Podcasting #Unmute https://pnc.st/s/technically-working/d9e18a9f/technically-working-13 https://fosstodon.org/@edhowland/110465194971520910

@jp_bennett enjoyed your episode about rust coreutils #especially the part where the guest called out the developers over at Nushell. is there a past episode where you have interviewed them? And if not, how about it? And if so, I think it should be time for an update because they're getting very close to a 1.0 release.

turns out Nietzsche started his academic career as a philologist.

philology is the formal study of languages, their transmission, and the wider placement, and influence on the surrounding culture and the surrounding cultures influences on language.

we lost an electronics legend in June this year. Don Lancaster passed away. This is a good video that covers some of his work, including the #TVTypewriter. https://youtu.be/GiI2ayNVDQg

@leo and this weeks #SecurityNow podcast, Leo and Steve discuss the very annoying low battery alarms that occur around your home. these often go off in the middle of the night and can be difficult to locate. being #Blind., I employ audio direction finding techniques to track them down. Leo wants Steve to develop a chirp finder. I think this would be a great #Arduino project. #RaspberryPie. #ADC #Triangulation.

@podfeet good get on this weeks Chit Chat Across the Pond podcast: Dr. Andrea Ghez, only the fourth woman ever to win the Nobel prize in physics! For context: how do we know there's a super massive black hole at the center of our galaxy? Dr. Andrea. That is how.

A history and deep dive into a little known net work technology, called #Arcnet. A bit cheaper than #Ethernet.
https://youtu.be/Gx0v0CyIps8
used a token star topology rather than hashtag token ring. #Novell pretty much out marketed it with the #NE2000 nic. created by Datapoint/CTC. popular wiz, early micro, computers, and mini computers. Some are probably still in use today on factory floors for automation.

#Cookbooks #Summerfare #Picnic #EggSalad just realize some thing reading through a couple of audio books that are cookbooks. Seems that to make egg salad which you start with is the recipe for chicken salad and just substitute, hard-boiled eggs, chopped in place of the chicken. this is probably pretty obvious to most cooks but I am a clueless dude.

@ramsey I don't know. It seems to be on a case by case basis. And also, it might very well be platform specific in which case there's no happy medium probably. in this message. I'm trying so now to see what happens.

it seems if it is a wordy like word, even if it's misspelled, it will pronounce it as that word. If it's a bunch of letters, with no good vowels in between them to make up common words, then it spells them out. But I can't make it consistent. -
Why do we persist in still calling them "letter openers" and not "envelope openers"?
AFAI, I haven't sent or received any letters in the 21st century.
You could make a case for greeting cards like holiday or B-Day card which might contain a letter inside with the card.

my cockney father-in-law had this in common with his Aussie in-laws: they used to say let's go down to the pub and get pissed. I just learned a new Aussie term: it's a piece of piss. Very similar to us yanks saying it's a piece of cake. I think that kind of shows which side has which priorities.

Finite automata are just fun! But, so far, the only onesI've ever written are deterministic or #DFA.
Nondeterministic finite automataare harder to write because their is some sortof parallism going there.
You have to multithread or use backtracking.
Consider a strings of 0s and 1s where the language requires the last but one to be a 1. Only #NFA can do it.
Luckily, NFA can be autotranslated to DFA using a power set of states.

have a question about storing #Bananas.
you can't eat them all in one or two settings, and if you eat them over several days, the final ones tend to over ripen.
what's the best way to store them so this doesn't happen? #FoodStorage. -

@leo you were right, regarding Lispstl in Scheme and this weeks episode of security now. In fact, it looks like Steve has rediscovered schemes continuations. They are basically copy the stack into a variable and then restore the stack at some later time. Brilliant.

In #Linux and #MacOS, AFAIK, the $LANG environment var has this form:
<lang.2.letter.code>_<2.LETTER.COUNTRY.CODE>.<CHARSET> (Caps where seen)
E.g. mine is:
en_US.UTF-8
However, when looking up the pathnames for these it is usually: 'en_US/'
What is the the charset extension used for?
I am a newbie in the whole #I18N space and #M17N area. -
according to Rob Pike, space#DotFiles in #Unix we're an unintended consequence of a hack in the LS command to not show the current and parent directories.
