The case for using a web browser as your terminal

I don't actively use a terminal emulator app on my computer anymore, and use tweety instead from my web browser. I think you should consider doing the same. The web browser is the ultimate window manager I don't really have a usecase for native apps anymore. All of the apps I use are web-based, so it make sense for ...

Jan Wildeboer’s thread on setting up a cooperative CA inspired me to finally write down (and then forget about them again for over a week) my thoughts on a related topic: Email encryption. With PGP and S/MIME, we already have two mature solutions for sending encrypted emails that have been around for decades. And wh...

Constructing the integrals' tensor is complicated6 and is the main reason for the poor scaling of electronic structure methods. The \(1s\) orbitals are the simplest case, and here two types of integrals are analytical (S, T) while the rest already lacks a closed-form solution (V, ERI): S ← {a‿b𝕊𝕩: (1.5⋆˜π÷a+b) × ⋆-𝕩...

Trying to go too fast may be slow. mmapI was reading a bunch of modestly large files, and thought, hey, I could mmap these files to speed things up. In general, mmap can be faster because the kernel doesn’t need to copy any data into your memory, it just appears there. Even if the kernel does fancy page flipping tec...

There’ve been a lot of stories under the new vibecoding tag that seem to suggest it’s unfocused. Check here. This one is reflections on the discourse around AI, not actually about vibecoding. This one is a Firefox feature release for previews. Unsure if topical, quite sure not coding. This one is a utility script. Sure, it’s machine generated, but so are a lot of...
