If Intel virtualization works for Docker, why doesn't it work for things like VMWare or VirtualBox for Intel VM's?

I've barely read about Category Theory, but isn't it a just a slightly more mathy version of what programmers have been doing all along? Going up and down levels of abstraction, graphs, functions that transform one type of "object" into another?

Other magazines mentioned but no love for Computer Language Magazine? It held its own with DDJ when it came to software and theoretical topics.


Works on my Intel mac running Sonoma 14.8.2. I use Omakub on my Linux machine and missed this when on my mac.


I didn't save the tweet I saw it in but I saved the joke - "I wish I had enough money to run Oracle instead of Postgres." "Why do you want to do that?" "I don't, I just wish I had enough money to."


The big headline for our household will be to pause updates as long as needed. My wife is a CPA and having to manually delay and delay updates during the end of tax season(s) (March for corporates, April for personal, then again six months later) is an extra, unnecessary stress during those times for her.


I'm in the same boat as waynesonfire and I'm afraid this doesn't answer the question sufficiently. What do you do with an agent? What's a concrete example vs. typing in a chat box.


When you have workflows that you repeat over and over it’s easier to formalize with something like jido. Ie if you don’t want to type into a checkbox and verify output everytime.


I don't know your autonomy with regards to IT within the confines of your classroom but if you can't install ad blockers on the Chromebooks can you set up something like PiHole and direct DNS traffic through it? It won't solve the overall slowness of the Chromebooks but it will help with some web sites.


I had a Spaceball Avenger which made it so intuitive to play.

From my old reddit post about it, "The Spaceball Avenger is a gaming peripheral. It has the usual buttons, but the big ball is used for six degrees of freedom movement. With pressure sensors the ball is pushed up/down, left/right, and in/out for X, Y and Z axes. The ball can also be rotated for pitch, yaw and roll.

Plugged into the computer's serial port it came with drivers for games such as Doom, for which it was a good controller, but the Spaceball really shined for the Descent family of games. Descent is a FPS with no gravity, where your ship moves in ALL directions, and controlling with with the Spaceball feels like you're holding the spaceship in your hand and you're just moving it to where you want it to go."

Rarely mentioned is the audio, the Mac's bass and overall sound is much better than any other laptop its size.


Right now I’m sitting in front of a hotel tv with speakers that are so crap that we are putting the sound through the MacBook to improve things.
