I write mostly Python for 5 years and uv is indeed the best thing that happened to the Python landscape during this period.

I disagree that typescript is far nicer; even syntax-wise, type annotated Python seems much easier to read, write, and refactor; but I'll give that Python needs to ditch pip and "requirements.txt" for good.

types are always ignored at runtime, they're only useful when developing

optical

you're welcome

Right, the Mullvad app now has a warning that Android's "block connections without VPN" disables both split tunneling and local network discovery. So it must be off when using KDE connect.

fwiw the optical one in the Pixel 8 I use is pretty good and works better than the ultrasonic of my old Samsung, which was a disaster.

I briefly checked that the other day and it doesn't seem to be the case. To my knowledge, the GNSS hardware will gather info on all available (supported + reachable) constellations to give the best location estimate.

There are ways to get raw measurements in some devices, but that'd be at the application level so I think it's not what you're looking for.

enough to cut a few zeros of a number with 10 million of them

I don't think it's a constraint, it's more like a measuring stick to try to show how ridiculously long that time is

fwiw, you don't need long gestures if you make them faster. Which phone are you using?

the paper used the entire population (200 thousand) and would take some 10 ^ 10 ^ 7 heat deaths of the universe

As such, we have to conclude that Shakespeare himself inadvertently provided the answer as to whether monkey labour could meaningfully be a replacement for human endeavour as a source of scholarship or creativity. To quote Hamlet, Act 3, Scene 3, Line 87: “No”.

Wireless devices let me use 2 different tables and an armchair+TV. That would simply not be an option otherwise.

The benefits of going wireless vastly outweigh an occasional connection annoyance to me. And worst case I can still plug them in.

GitHub Copilot Workspace didn't work on a super simple task regardless of how easy I made the task. I wouldn't use something like this for free, much less pay for it. It sort of failed in every way it could at every step.

I've just upgraded to Plasma 6 on EndeavourOS and X11 works, but booting on Wayland via SDDM gives me a blank screen. The display enters power saving mode and switching to a TTY doesn't wake it up.

Anyone else having this problem, or with a workaround suggestion?

I'd like to try the new Assassin's Creed and Avatar, but they're not on Steam - which is how I play almost every other game on Linux. I know I might be able to install Uplay games using Lutris, but I'm not sure if the experience is as smooth as Steam + Proton.

Do you have any experience with Ubisoft + Lutris? Is there an equivalent to ProtonDB to have an idea how well a game runs?
