There is 3.5mm


I stand corrected! I looked at photos and specs and completely missed it yesterday! Thx


DigiTimes Asia has some decent semiconductor industry coverage.


You might want to buy a programmable audio DSP board. Achieving low latency on generic hardware can be tricky.


AFAICT he bluntly closed the issue that asks for CJK input support in kitty. https://github.com/kovidgoyal/kitty/issues/462 I understand there might be technical difficulties but his attitude is disappointingly bad.


> attitude is disappointingly bad.

You'd rather he catered to every feature request?


> So write a script to do it for you. I dont know what you are asking for here. I already told you glfw does not support XIM.

Thid is blatantly rude and dismissive.

I think people would rather he was polite. As much as I respect Mr.Goyal for his work, he does not have the right to talk down to other people because he maintains something.

Please don't make excuses for someone being rude because they're a FOSS developer. I've seen it so many times on here now.


What is considered rude is entirely subjective. For instance, I feel bringing up something after being told why it wouldn't work and wasting people's time is rude.

Perhaps you would have phrased it differently. But I don't buy the idea that every interaction should be sugar coated.

Quod licet Iovi, non licet bovi.


I don’t think there’s a need to sugarcoat every interaction, but at the same time, we’re but living beings, who all have our share of frustrations and bad days. It takes little to speak or write something a bit softer.


A GitHub issue is not equivalent to a direct message to the developer. Other people can see GitHub issues/feature requests, and sometimes, one of them steps up and does the legwork of fixing/implementing the thing.

> But I don't buy the idea that every interaction should be sugar coated.

Me neither, Kovid has every right to communicate whatever way he wants to, and nobody can take that right away from him.

Just as I have the right to consider him a rude [insert generic insult].


It is perfectly possible not to cater to every feature request, without being rude. A single sentence like this:

    I don't have the time, energy, desire, nor language knowledge to implement this feature.
conveys completely the same information as Kovid's comments, with the benefit of not being aggressive and demeaning.


If anyone is looking for how interaction between teen girls look like, this parody made by The Onion is the best depiction I've ever seen: https://youtu.be/XUT8ec24anM


The most unfixable UI problem for Emacs is that its rendering model works upon "character cells and cursor positions, not pixels."[1] No amount of effort would steer Emacs's UI away from an ortholinear matrix of characters. Whenever you install an LSP plugin on Emacs, you'll realize how badly it hurts readability and your eyes. [1]https://m.facebook.com/notes/daniel-colascione/buttery-smoot...


Can anyone tell me the relationship between this and call/cc?


You're likely to have filtered a lot more than you think simply by consciously selecting which server and which channel to join. I don't know which kind of filtering you're referring to, but if you're talking about those that constitute echo chambers, IRC isn't really helping much in that regard.
