    I really like how nushell can parse output into it's native structures called tables using the detect command.

    Unlike string outputs, tables allow for easy data manipulation through pipes like select foo will select foo key and you can filter and even reshape the datasets.

    This is great if you need to work with large data pipes like kuberneters so you can do something like:

    kubectl get pods --all-namespaces | detect columns | where $it.STATUS !~ "Running|Completed" | par-each { |it| kubectl -n $it.NAMESPACE delete pod $it.NAME }
    

    This looks complex but it parses kubectl table string to table object -> filters rows only where status is not running or completed -> executes pod delete task for each row in parallel.

    Nushell take a while to learn but having real data objects in your terminal pipes is incredible! Especially with the detect command.

    There's are few more shells that do that though nu is the most mature one I've seen so far.

    UI designer here - people are simply getting dumber, tech-wise at least.

    That being said, there have been a lot of improvements in UI and UX world in the past 20 years the problem is that many users are so technically inept the drag down the entire curve all the way down.

    patents and copyright are pretty different though. IMO both are bad but you can at least make a case for protecting intelectual work from copying. Patents protect replication of ideas and ideas don't have to be unique at all. If I say it was my idea to call variables a,b,c,d,e in that order that means anyone who wants to do that in their creations needs my permission which is fucking bonkers.

    I'm convinced that software patents exist purely for regulatory capture.

    Yet within 24 hours, parliament tabled an emergency motion to reverse these changes - a move which has sparked widespread condemnation and fears of a constitutional crisis.

    This does make sense now. It's just a very poorly written article :|

    On Wednesday, Indonesia's top court ruled that parties would not need a minimum 20% of representation in their regional assemblies in order to field a candidate.

    ...

    If passed, it would maintain the status quo, which favours parties in the ruling coalition of the outgoing president

    But lack of ability does not prevent any of that. Entrepreneurs who want to monetize stuff will find a way to spam and game the system.

    As someone whos responsible for docs and public facing material I'd never push text only content these days. There's just way too much UX value left out with this limitation. Sometimes more is more.

    Additionally I'd argue that people who only want text are have advantage in the current system as you can strip and reformat everything on the front end and nobody will ever know or bully you into accepting their system. Just like nobody cared about ad blockers before they were widely adopted.

    I heavily disagree with this. Stepping back to "walls of text with hyperlinks" is a bad idea that'll service no one and will never succeed in any reasonable capacity.

    Current web technology is not what caused bad web. The exception would be too powerful js where js should only provide interactivity and extra flavor to the page rather than run a full application which can fingerprint and punish user agents.

    Javascript, embeded images and audio are awesome things that can improve content readability a thousand fold. Just look at best docs on the web - all of them use these features to tend their users. Even wikipedia added js flavoring like hover pop ups. Because it works.

    Also these days it's all about rushing content and pandering to the lowest common denominator. Though pop tech channels were always this way. I stumbled on Unbox Therapy lately and it's so blatant that it almost feels illegal.

    Eh, it's the same thing. If LLM can help me design a better process for my day-to-day tasks even if it's not part of the process literally it's still part of the process. Just like any growth like reading a book is part of the business process.

    Not even going to touch your second paragraph and it's completely unrelated. Cleaning for a living is not "running a small business".

    Keyboards already have too many keys. Your fingers are extremely inefficient at certain distances so you should never even touch numpad with proper keyboard design. 10 fingers can combine a lot of keys.

    Yes of course it can help you. The lack of imagination in this thread is truly astounding.

    You have an assistant with you that can instantly answer your questions and help you develop your business:

    • "what's the most efficient way to track appointments for me on Linux desktop program with minimal budget and I have 4-6 daily appointments. My key features are reminder 30min before appointment and ability to put notes for each appointment"
    • "help me optimize my meeting structure. I'm in X niche and currently I have 30minute daily meetings that don't follow any structure, what are some de facto meeting structures and post meeting operations in this industry?"

    I'm not directing this at OP but to all of the naysayers in this thread - if you can't find use for a tireless, 20$/mo assistant that will instantly answer your questions then you should not be owning any business or leading anything for that matter.

    Most interesting part of the article: > "Our focus is on transforming our biggest franchises from largely console and PC-based with 3-4 year release schedules to include more always-on gameplay through live services, multiplatform, and free-to-play extensions, with the goal of having more players spending more time on more platforms. U > Ultimately, we want to drive engagement and monetization over longer cycles and at higher levels where per specific capabilities we're currently under scale, and see significant opportunity to generate greater post-purchase revenue" What a major turn-off ngl.

    Meta sneakily introduced "Platform Integrity Attestation API" which basically calls home to see whether the user has a valid license to play. This means that to run apps user has to have online connection to perform an integrity test. Whether it's only a test on launch or continues call home like Denuvo-like DRMs is not yet clear. This could also mean that modified headsets could fail to pass this test essentially closing down the device for modifications that could damage "platform integrity". Not all details are clear yet but this doesn't look good. Currently it's optional and up to app developers to enable it.

    So, apparently Pulsar Timing Arrays work and something important was discovered that'll be announced in few days. This might sound like a bunch of space-nothing but just like radio waves, discovering gravitation waves could open up a lot of new posibilities in space observation. Though, in practice producing gravitation waves takes absurd amounts of energy so we'll not be applying this on earth any time soon.

    Android browsers can already add pages to home screen but Hermit takes this even futher. It has significantly better UX with frameless and full screen modes. You can bookmark pages, so on Lemmy you can quickly bookmark community in specific sorting order. There are user scripts and blockers and loads of customization. You can even add push notifications for changes on the site or RSS feed. I've been running most Fediverse web apps through Hermit and it works really well! The only exception is that I couldn't figure out how to setup notifications on Mastodon.
