The Gervais Principle is fascinating and a bit too inflexibly nihilistic in my mind.

A transcendent theory past both is Komoroske's "Coordination Headwinds"

"Organization headwinds" diagrams are helpful, thanks for the interesting read.

> Many of these scientific file formats (HDF5, netCDF, TIFF/COG, FITS, GRIB, JPEG and more) are essentially just contiguous multidimensional array(/"tensor") chunks

Yeah, a recurring thought is that these should condense into Apache Arrow queried by DuckDB but there must be some reason for this not to have already happened.


And they announced the next version of the Lightning last month. People don't like that it isn't purely BEV, but I don't see the big deal.

  Unlike a traditional hybrid, the F-150 Lightning EREV is propelled 100 
  percent by electric motors. This ensures owners get the pure EV driving 
  experience they love — including rapid acceleration and quiet operation — 
  while eliminating the need to stop and charge during long-distance towing.

Wow, what a way to celebrate the birthday of a certain tech CEO by crashing-out in a similar way. This is very disappointing.

What are the impacts if any to the Stemma QT and Quiic ecosystems?

> sexual images are only a problem if they are gratuitous or off-topic

Well if someone was working on something like a medical device there might be some documentation that could be interpreted as sexual but that documenting it was not gratuitous.

Looks like the prices of Teensy boards on adafruit.com are the same as before. Maybe the statement means they will continue to sell them instead of "on sale" in the sense of applying a discount.


Yes, seeing this product's very angular non-3d-printed yet-prototype design brought back memories of the days when the default portable hardware interface didn't always include a pointing device and thus there were these clip-on trackballs, like below.

Maybe some of the weirdest were things that looked like small mice that were linked and position-sensed by a bar linkage to the laptop. I can't find a reference to one tho, so maybe I'm mis-remembering?

You are thinking of the HP Omnibook.

Many thanks! Seeing that mouse-like thing pop out with the "mouse eject button" was very satisfactory.

Having not seen that hardware interface today while reviewing Wikipedia entries for pointer devices left me questioning my memory like the Fruit of the Loom cornucopia or "Berenstein Bears".



I can't remember the last time I resized a window. Does everyone not already install Magnet or an alternative first-thing to emulate the impeccable DWM?
