I quickly went through the article, and I have a question: Why not Docker (or Podman) on NixOS?

NixOS has much larger community (although a bit toxic) and provides native tooling for managing OCI containers through Docker and Podman.

This guy is also a DJ. There is a Traktor console at the left.

In the search results, I think, the first file is Python (.py) and the other is React Typescript (.tsx)

What would happen if all users start using adblockers, or the value of ads starts to fall?

I do not support the current, ad-driven, model of the internet. However, since the costs of subscriptions are increasing, while salaries are going downhill, it is apparent that ads is (seemingly) the only viable choice for now.

In the economy we currently live in, all of world's wealth is slowly moving to ad networks.

Even donation driven models are currently straggling. Just look at the fediverse. The people donating to their instances are not enough to sustain them.

Capitalism has absolutely destroyed everything. The greed of stakeholders has milked most people. At some point people will stop buying the useless things or services promoted via advertisements, just because they will not be able to afford them. Then, no subscriptions, no point of advertising, no donators, no people hosting fediverse instances, just world hunger.

Judging by the colors, this is a new photo. It's not yellow.

So, you guys never had to live in a badly designed apartment, because you couldn't afford a better one.

I have been living like this in Greece for about 3 years.

You also need to ln -s /dev/null /dev/nul

In bash, when you redirect the output of a command to /dev/null, like cat /etc/passwd >/dev/null, you are silencing the output.

There are cases that this is useful, for example when checking if an application is installed:

node -v >/dev/null && echo "Node.js is installed"

This line tries to get the version of Node.js, but it silences the output. That's because we don't care about the version. We only care about whether the execution was successful, which implies the existence of Node.js in the system.

Point (5) is not about the arcs' lengths. It's about the angle they create with the center.

Also, I never said that COD * 2 = 2π. I said (inner COD) + (outer COD) = 2π rads

Take this shape as an example. The "square" in question consists of AC, BD, the outer AB, and the inner CD.

Point (5) means that, since the lines AC and BD are radii of the concentric circles, the arcs AB and CD should have the same inner angle. That's because the angle COD is equal to AOB.

Since, the inner angle is the same, then the outer AOB should, by definition, be 2π - (the inner AOB), because that's how radiants work; a circle is 2π rads.

Since the straight lines are radii, they cut the circles at angle θ and 2π - θ, respectively. Adding those, you get 2π.
