  • I think the situation is that people who have hypolycemic attacks can go into a fugue where they don’t know what they’re doing.

    I once had heat stroke (after PT in Panama). The guys said I just walked out of formation, ran into the Sargent, and then fell flat on my face. All I remember was standing in formation after a run, getting tunnel vision, and then waking up in the clinic.

    The bubbles around her head as she’s walking indicate something’s going on. Although mine wasn’t blood sugar, I feel this comic.





  • Native apps are being replaced with web apps.

    Are they?

    A few years ago it seemed for a while that Electron was cropping up everywhere, but it’s been tapering off over the past couple of years. I don’t think I’ve come across a new Electron app in the past several months, and every project that did start out as Electron now has several native alternatives. Riot/Element is a good example.

    The trend I see is away from web apps. It’s still a popular platform and for anything that is fundamentally networked I’d agree that few native apps are being developed. I haven’t seen a native version of the Home Assistant client interface, for instance. But for web apps to replace native apps, there’d have to be a trend to either move native apps to the cloud, or for platforms like Electron to surge and displace native toolkits. I observe that the reverse of the latter is happening; and for the former, while there are a lot of cloud-ifying projects, I don’t see that they’re replacing native apps.






  • I think this is an effort by Fedora to deprecate X11 without pissing off a large chunk of their userbase by announcing deprication by fiat, as other distributions and projects are.

    If XLibre is mostly one guy, who has demonstrated alarming gaps in his understanding of C, and who has a history of pushing regressions, the X on Fedora will become unstable and people will voluntarily switch to Wayland. Between those and people who will switch out of protest because of the maintainer’s politics, eventually there’ll be so few X users Fedora can say, “see? Nobody’s using X, so we’re going to deprecate it.”

    It may sound like a conspiracy theory, but it’s easier to believe than that Fedora’s leadership is choosing to depend on an essentially one-man-fork with QC issues and a maintainer who keeps his controversial politics up front in the project README, before any other technical information.








  • Shoes. It’s in the shoes.

    I don’t know what the fashion is today, but when I was living in Munich in the 90’s, you could tell the Americans by their clothes, and the absolute give-away was the sneakers. Every young adult German wore Doc Martins. When I came back, I visited my family in SF, and we were at Fisherman’s Wharf and I saw a group of girls that I immediately pegged as German from their clothes; I walked over and introduced myself in German, and sure enough, they were German.
