Isn’t the developer of Omarchy a right-wing conspiracy theorist?

There was very little LLM-generated code in the first place, AFAIK it was just a couple pieces of build tooling?

The team seems to be working on their own solution to the GIF thing

They’re having issues with their email provider due to the hug of death effect, they did not expect to get so much traffic so fast

I actually have a usecase for virtual keyboards - being able to easily change the layout on-the-fly (which is obviously impossible with a physical one)

Wasn’t there a youtuber who made rat neurons in a petri dish play doom?

Come on, don’t be racist, you can do better than that

I’d also guess that the large number of vowels in English has to do with it, General American English has around 16 vowels (counting both monophthongs and diphthongs, other varieties of English have similar amounts)

I feel that when there’s that many vowels, the exact quality of the vowel is less important and thus they can shift around more

Are you confusing Scots and Scottish Gaelic? Scottish Gaelic is the one that’s spoken in the western isles, Scots is across most of the rest of Scotland, including big cities

Scots is hard to tell from English sometimes because Scots has undergone near language death, where it adopted more and more features from English as it was taken over, and Scots was regarded for a decent while as nothing but bad English

Was it Scottish English or Scots? The line between the two is blurry because intelligibility varies a lot

Is it? I tried checking in a dictionary but it didn’t list mídheas as a word and “deas” was defined as right/nice/honest, not just “good”

Even most Esperanto speakers have abadoned the ideology of Finvenkismo (the belief that Esperanto will become the primary language of the world, overtaking other languages) as it’s both unrealistic and has several flaws

Esperanto is a flawed, Eurocentric language, and we should celebrate linguistic diversity, not treat it as a problem needing to be solved

Why is this downvoted, it’s actually a real thing

Linguists struggle to find an exact definition of what a word is because speakers of different languages have different opinions of what a word is, and some languages make the distinction unclear

Yeah as a polish person I got what they meant but I found it offensive

If a US official is sent to The Hague, doesn’t the US government have a law that gives them the ability to invade the Hague and take them back?

The Catholic church has a very strong grip on Polish culture (and often government), which is what drives a lot of things like this

Apparently it also means “I don’t give a shit” in Spanish (specifically in Spain)

Haskell: =

RISC-V is sooo cool I hope it ends up being used more in consumer products

The main bluesky feed is also chronological, however, it has a desperate discover feed which is algorithmic (I think mastodon might have that as an option now?)
