Check out Proxmox + https://tteck.github.io/Proxmox/ + lxc container snapshots on the NAS and set up Proxmox backup server on the Pi. I find such a setup to be "all benefit, no giving up anything", contrary to NixOS.
Yeah, I love that stack. I then rsync those backups to backblaze.
No issues, single machine, no fucking around with stuff like kubernetes (and I also got rid of docker, so that annoyance is also gone)
A new programming language based on "mutable value semantics" has been renamed from Val to Hylo. It was a frequent complaint that the former name was too similar to other existing languages like V, Vala, and Vale. Mutable value semantics is a new way to efficiently pass around data structures without having explicit references/pointers present in the language and complicating semantics. Pointers are basically relegated to a status of a possible optimization that the compiler can perform at the assembly level.
AFAIU, SM2 computes the datetime of a next review, whereas Ebisu models a probability of remembering a given flashcard. It seems it’s a more straightforward representation that’s more amenable to implementing functionalities like “show me 10 least remembered cards”.
It should be noted that Ebisu currently has a severe flaw that causes it to massively underestimate how well you know a card[1]. The author has been working on a rewrite to fix the issue for a year and a half, and is currently asking for comments on the new API for Ebisu v3 which should fix this issue[2]. (The author argues this never would've caused to you to get suboptimal reviews if you use it in the "just give me a few reviews now" mode, but I'm not personally convinced.)
All of that being said, I am a fan of the Bayesian approach Ebisu uses (and Ebisu v3 would allow you to eliminate the awful way SM2/Anki deal with ease factors). Thankfully the v3 Anki scheduler will be pluggable so you'll be able to use Ebisu v3 with Anki on every Anki platform. :D
There was a point when this was joke poking fun at emacs users. With time, it makes more and more sense. Foot pedals offload some strain from your hands to your feet which in theory sounds healthier when it comes to joints. They may even improve blood circulation to your feet. Something which is quite desirable given the sedentary nature of computer work.
I have recently moved the ctrl key away from the "caps lock" position on my Ergodox and onto the thumb cluster, it's already improving the strain in my pinky. I took the initial move since the corner position is about the worst kind of stretch for a lot of key combinations, but with the amount that I use the ctrl key there's no doubt in my mind I should be using my strongest digit.
Yeah, if you have thumb clusters I definitely recommend putting modifiers on them. The thumb is one of the strongest digits, yet most only use them (or one of them!) to press a single key, the spacebar. What a waste.
On my ergodox the two big thumb keys on the left are control (escape when tapped) and alt. I don't use the other thumb keys as they aren't comfortable to type. The two right thumb keys are space and enter.
My thumbs have thanked me for the past nine years.
I've thought about potentially tackling other languages in the future, and I think that would be fun to work on too, but alas, at this point I don't really have the resources to even be able to work on it as-is (since this is currently purely a spare time project, and my TODO list is already hundreds of items long), so I'd be just spreading myself way too thin.
There's also Falcon[1] Chrome extension which does full text indexing on your browser history so if you read something and can't either Google it or find it in the browser's history, Falcon will broaden the search scope.
