    Ja, zanimivo, da se z našimi južnimi brati boljše razumemo v tujini kot sami med seboj.

    How much university work I have to do and that I'll probably have to go a few days without sleep. Some universities are @#$%&! stupid, but such is a life of a student I guess. :(

    Yes! In fact, I saw it a couple of days ago and was just amazed with the amount of effort and dedication that went into it.

    It's from The Bible (Psalm 46:10 NIV).

    He says, “Be still, and know that I am God;
    I will be exalted among the nations,
    I will be exalted in the earth.”

    Wait. Why do you need numbers from 14-19? Am I missing something? EDIT: nvm, I'm stupid. My solution doesn't even work with those numbers.

    Open source doesn't just mean access to the source code.

    Also adding a screenshot or something would be really nice, so that people can see the program without actually running it.

    I've tried watching the show twice before and never made it past the first episode. A few weeks ago was the first time I did (third time's the charm, I guess) and was hooked.

    I love how even an alternate history like that, has a lot of similarities to our current world (maybe that's just me + I don't really live in the US, so I wouldn't know what's like).

    Oh I misread it. Yeah, I generally only reboot if the Linux kernel was updated or Systemd (because it's Systemd...).

    Because I use NixOS, the output during an upgrade is hard to read sometimes (they're working on this). When that happens I also just reboot to be safe, but NixOS doesn't update as much as something like Arch :).

    That's why I love Nix. It allows me to create a reproducible development environment no matter the language. All I do is write a default.nix file. The file is read by the nix-shell command when I invoke it and all dependencies are installed for me, without having to worry about a weird state on my system that is allowing my code to compile.

    That's interesting. Maybe you can only be logged-in with a single browser. Was Firefox the first browser you used to login?

    I don't think it's such a big deal. The nice thing about st is that even if you don't like something , you can easily change it, because the source code is quite simple and short (provided you know C).

    If I'm working with a command that outputs a lot of text I just use something like less and don't use the scrollback, because in most terminals (by default) the scrollback is limited.
