I don't know where that line count comes from. It looks like libjxl has 38314 lines (https://app.codecov.io/gh/libjxl/libjxl/tree/main/lib%2Fjxl) at the moment.

I'm in tech and don't use it either..

Citation needed on OPs "most people".

Anything needs to be shown on a table, calendar, etc. is a database. It doesn't matter if user deliberately uses it or not. One can have a look at all the Notion's templates (https://www.notion.so/templates). All featured templates have databases. I also looked at all categories and their front pages filled with templates /w databases. Maybe 1 per category without it.

One of the most used feature of the Notion is databases. This Notion Clone doesn't have that feature yet.

That's not an interrupt but an event sent from kernel's gpio subsystem. It may skip some events and there's not much guarantee on the delay between the interrupt itself and event userspace gets.

First advice is to enable journaling mode on FS.

First advice must be to mount FS in read only mode, mount /var in memory and forward al logs to one nide, which may be not RPi but something with proper UPS and nut running. Power loss becomes absolutely bening if your FSes RO or temporary.

It is overkill if you have one RPi but author claims that he uses multiple RPis all around a house.

Also, good idea to have A/B system partitions and upgrade system with full partition rewrite and changing active one. Thus way your system will have one good system partition in any case, even if new version has fatal bugs, and recovery become trivial.

I'm using several small/single board PCs im different roles in such way for 20+ years with great success.

Are there any solutions available for this?

I see a minor complaint about eye tracking, but people conveniently forget about the status quo. The status quo is holding large objects which are strapped on your hands and using point-and-shoot to click on items. You literally have to shoot items like on a shooting range, and hope that you hit. It's ridiculous. You can't use standard UIs with that kind of interaction, because everything is way too small.

And while you're strapped to those items you can't use keyboard or anything else with your hands. You can't scratch an itch or put something in your mouth. Your hands are occupied and you feel like you're in jail. Surprisingly you actually want to have hands.

This is the single most important innovation in Apple Vision. It gives you hands.

Only if it already wasn't available in other VR/AR platforms. Hand tracking is available on Meta Quest platform (albeit not very reliable, I admit) since December 2019.

Cool, I didn't know this existed. It seems to be a third party server similar to what vaultwarden does for bitwarden?

But why would it need a gcp or aws account? It could run on any vps right? I'd run it on something much cheaper like scaleway.

bdemirkir · 2 years ago
It doesn't. You can run it on a VPS and you have an option to use SSO with OIDC integration.

Are you sure you don't need to pay about 5k€/seat/year for commercial development?
bdemirkir · 6 years ago
You don't need to pay at all. Comparison is here: https://www.qt.io/download

Basically, you need to link dynamically or provide object files. You can't use commercial modules too. But that's only a small portion of Qt anyway.

bdemirkir commented on Why old-school PostgreSQL is so hip again   infoworld.com/article/324... · Posted by u/bjourne

The biggest gripe I've had with Postgres (and I mention this elsewhere) is the lack of a decent GUI/IDE.

But as Datagrip matures, the landscape can only get better. Datagrip is not free, but I'm willing to pay for something that works better than pgAdmin.

There are some exciting things happening in the Postgres space. Outside of Citus for scaling out, TimescaleDB has a plugin that makes Postgres a strong contender in the time-series database space. Temporal joins have always been a problem with NoSQL time-series databases; otoh joins are what SQL databases have traditionally been optimized for. It'll be exciting to have a large-scale datastore where you can easily combine and recombine different time-series in a single query.

Although it's expensive, Navicat (https://www.navicat.com) provides polished experience for PostgreSQL.
