Ask HN: Pregunta para los devs hispanohablantes
¿Cómo les caería un lenguaje de programación de sistemas pero completamente en español?
imagino algo con el minimalismo y la concurrencia de Go, el bonito sistema de errores de Rust, no compartir estados mutuos como en Pony (no race conditions)

¿Qué opinan?

I just wanted to look up 9V block battery prices online and these automatically generated descriptions are getting dumber by the minute:

Datum der Erzeugung: Verfallsdatum minus 7 Jahre

(Date of manufacturing: expiration date minus 7 years)

Or look at this one:

Die leistungsstarke 9 V-Block E Batterie, auch 6LR61 genannt, eignet sich besonders gut fĂŒr Taschenlampen, Radio oder Kinderspielzeug, die einen gleichbleibenden Strombedarf haben. Ihre max. Spannung betrĂ€gt 1,5 V.

(The high performance 9 V block E battery, also known as 6LR61, is particularly suitable for torches, radio or child’s toys, which have a steady power demand. Its max. voltage is 1.5 V.)

The battery is best suited for
 devices where it fits. No shit, Sherlock! Has anyboy ever come across 9V block torches? O_o I haven’t.

↳ In-reply-to » @lyse These days (and it’s been like that for a while), almost everything is loaded on-demand depending on which hardware the OS finds, so you can simply copy all your files with cp -a, install a bootloader, adjust some minor things /etc/fstab, done. Well, maybe not “done”, but it’s easy to sort out the remaining stuff afterwards.

@bender@twtxt.net It’s been a while (6.5 years) since I’ve done this. I’d do it like this:

  • Boot some Linux from a USB stick on the new machine. Preferably Arch Linux, since that is what I’m running and that’ll make the upcoming chroot easier.
  • Partition the new disk, create LUKS devices, filesystems, 

  • Mount the new filesystems and copy all data (user data and the system itself – everything). Do this either over the network or by hooking up the old disk directly.
  • chroot into the new system (Arch has an arch-chroot tool for that which is used during normal installation, if I’m not mistaken). Inside the chroot, install the bootloader.
  • Do some fixups, like adjusting /etc/fstab or /etc/crypttab.

And I think that should be it. đŸ€”

Just saw the video. Can’t believe that ladder is that expensive. Even in AUD, it is almost $100. It is also 2.5 stars, with 13 reviews. Gulp. Engineering aside (and you are right, it is pretty interesting, and some, if not most of it went over my head), the ladder is rubbish. This is the one I have. Not super, but have been with me for a while, and used quite a bit, still as good as new.

This one comes from this years (now scrapped) April 1st DLSS 5 gag, that was originally supposed to use Microsofts AI - in ways similar to the Nvidia technology, which produced interesting, overly detailed results. I wanted to see if I could beat the AI thing at drawing something like that myself and many redraws later, this is my best result.

↳ In-reply-to » @lyse The sun makes it look nice and cosy and warm, but it wasn’t, right? 😅

@movq@www.uninformativ.de I’ve got the same problem that you had the other day: finding past temperature data. But yeah, it looked much warmer than it actually was. Maybe 5°C? Possibly less when I found myself in the snow- and rainstorm in the end.

With the wind, my fingers were frozen. I should have worn gloves. Without them, I could only put my hands in the pockets of my jacket. That didn’t help much, though, because I frequently stopped to take yet another photo, so they cooled off again right away. :-D

Balancing the big/long, closed umbrella under my arm while I had my hands burried was also a little tricky.

First world problems. :-)

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org They certainly don’t. đŸ«€

Had an idea earlier: How about going all in on sustainability and saving money/energy, so how about telling your customers “AI is a bad idea $because_long_list_of_reasons, here are our alternatives, you’ll thank us in 5 years”? (I bet the customers wouldn’t listen either 
 🙄)

Wow, as I anticipated, this is waaay out of my capabilities to really understand it. But I’m quite happy to just have spotted a mistake in an explanatory comment in section 4.5.2 “The icode Array”. Of course, it should be /e + tc + /i + ni + t\0. Let’s hope that my e-mail with the patch actually makes it into Briam’s inbox. I fear GMail just hides it in the spam folder.

@eldersnake@we.loveprivacy.club

Steps to world domination:

  1. “Invent” “AI” (by using other people’s data).
  2. Get people hyped about it and ideally hooked on it.
  3. Only provide it as a cloud service. But hey, if you want to, you can run it locally!
  4. Buy all hardware available on the market, so that nobody but you can build more systems.
  5. All PCs of consumers and competitors are too weak now and can’t be upgraded anymore.
  6. Everybody depends on your cloud service! Win!

All of that is possible because corporations don’t have a “conscience” in capitalism. Nobody forces the RAM manufacturers to sell all their stuff to just one or two buyers, but since the only goal of that manufacturer is to make money, they do it.

@movq@www.uninformativ.de How about “Quongsi”? I generated the first five letters with pwgen --no-capitalize --no-numerals 5 and since that already showed up in DDG search results, I simply appended the last two, which yielded nothing on DDG and Google).

What kind of project is it? Maybe we can help you find a name or nudge you in the right direction.
