gens@programming.devto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Everyone loves reading documentation, what are some of your favourites?3·3 months agoI like the old amd ones.
gens@programming.devto Linux@lemmy.ml•Which Linux tool or command is surprisingly simple, powerful, and yet underrated?"1·4 months agoI once wrote a bc script that calculated parameters for the Blackman window for a FIR filter. (Had formulas already so not that impressive) Upped the precision until it needed like 30 sec to calculate, completely unnecessarely :).
Scheme and many others. And lots of libraries for C and others.
It’s called bignum, or Arbitrary-precision arithmetic.
gens@programming.devto Linux@lemmy.ml•Tell one thing that you miss after switching from another OS to Linux.4·6 months agoHokei, so. Usb “packets” are 12 bytes or something, and it’s not good for performance to stop the flow. The solution is, as always, to have a buffer. Problem is that some kernel geniuses decided that GIGABYTES is a good buffer size. This was all when spinning hdds were the standard and new fast usbs were comming, but still.
Oh, and for some reason the transfer bar sometimes works fine for me.
gens@programming.devto Linux@lemmy.ml•What are your thoughts on Zen Browser becoming a lot more popular than Floorp?252·6 months agoI feel like you are making up words
gens@programming.devto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What do you think got way too much hate than it should've?4·6 months agoMicrowaves are ~2.4GHz, same as wifi. That is the resonant freq of water. They don’t go deep, not even close to a milimeter. And it all converts to heat.
The sun is more damageing then microwaves of same power. And ionizing radiation is the really harmful one.
gens@programming.devto Linux@lemmy.ml•Firefox 133 now seems to follow Gnome's accent color!1·6 months agoUhmm… It was always possible to make an “app” that works on all linuxes the same.
gens@programming.devto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What are the "AK-47" of items? (cheap, durable, just works)70·6 months agoThe tip heats up enough to melt solder.
I think it’s the air in the cloth that isolates, and water just fills the gaps.
Missing “;” on line 148.
gens@programming.devto Linux@lemmy.ml•Which communication protocol or open standard in software do you wish was more common or used more?6·1 year agoUnix domain sockets, shared memory (classic and/or over anonymous file descriptors), file system in userspace, the (ms) ini format.
Was going to sleep when i wrote that.
gens@programming.devto Linux@lemmy.ml•Which communication protocol or open standard in software do you wish was more common or used more?71·1 year agoUds, shm, fuse for ipc. Ini for configs.
Having a company behind software means you can pay to have your bugs fixed. Big distros want that stability for their corporate customers. It’s no secret or anything. KDE has sponsors, but doesn’t have a direct relationship with a huge contractor like RH. Same reasoning for systemd.
Politics, basically.
Memes is now shitting on genders ? Y’all fuckers don’t know shit about empathy, and about memes either.
