It’s so rare that we get a new video, but it’s always a special day when it happens.

Just a heads up: not all plants like this because the tannic acid can make the soil too acidic for them.

As I was reading the article, I was thinking how glad I was that I switched - I am on the yearly plan now because I’m not going back to “free” search engines.

He always mysteriously gets frail and feeble-minded when it’s time for him to have to testify in court. Once that’s over his memory magically returns to him and he goes back to his mafia don mode.

There was a hack in 2011 where The Sun’s website claimed Murdoch was dead.

This takes you to the search results so it’s an extra click to get to the actual page.

My actual regex is a bit more complicated since it deals with multiple domains but that’s the gist.

I’ve been using Kagi for two months and I’m loving it - the ability to control your results is amazing. Some things I do:

• remove or downrate things like pinterest and w3schools from my results
• rewrite www.reddit.com/* to old.reddit.com/*
• rewrite to send some sources through archive.today or similar to break paywalls
• rewrite to set the language of some sites that GeoIP my location but ignore my language headers

Also, having keyboard controls - like Google used to have - is so welcome, and their AI summarisation tools are actually useful too.

What’s this easy fix then? Just a lower number? That will just mean more publishers.

AI detection tools don’t work, and humans aren’t much better, unless they’re subject experts. How do we stop AI books?

The article mentions that Hurd is also a recursive acronym, but doesn’t go into any more details.

After looking it up on Wikipedia, I see why not:

It’s time [to] explain the meaning of “Hurd”. “Hurd” stands for “Hird of Unix-Replacing Daemons”. And, then, “Hird” stands for “Hurd of Interfaces Representing Depth”. We have here, to my knowledge, the first software to be named by a pair of mutually recursive acronyms.

I can only answer the first part: .jxl

• PDA: I loved my Palm Pilot and I can still write using that script (was quite nice when I noticed my Android keyboard supported it)

• Raspberry Pi: this feels weird to be on this list! I still have one in the living room running Kodi

• No to the others, although I did have one of these beauties:

If there’s not much in it, I’ll go with the rust app because I like to use something I can see myself contributing to if the urge takes me.

I know other languages, but there’s no way I’m driving into a random C++ codebase unless I’m confident it’s a trivial fix.

I would have posted this it you hadn’t.

I have it set as my default shell on my main machine, but it’s not going anywhere near my servers! It’s definitely the most fun shell I’ve used, and hopefully some more of the warts can be shaved off as it matures.
