There's something to be said perhaps for preferring tools that do one of those things, rather than all of those things, and doing them well.

Not to say you can't then make an umbrella interface for interacting with them all as a suite, but perhaps the issue has become that gpg has not appropriately followed the Unix philosophy to begin with.

Not that I've got the solution for you. Just calling out the nature of your demands somewhat being at odds with a key design principle that made Unix and Unix-likes great to begin with.


Mastering Bitcoin, The Bitcoin Standard, Broken Money, and finished up a few other books I'd been in the middle of -- Against the Gods being most of interest here, as it was a good history of the discoveries of probability and how we think about risk management.

Also about halfway into Mastering the Lightning Network.


It'd be a shame if they went away; what better analogy than an analog clock for teaching how finite field mathematics works?

I recall seeing that it ran better on wine than on windows on the same hardware.

Never tested myself as I'm more a runescape/ragnarok online sorta guy myself...


They're not that free about beer. Though, more free about beer than liquor. That's only allowed to be sold in state run liquor stores. It was a real head scratcher when I first encountered it.


This reminds me of an article I read years ago about how people used to commonly wake up in the middle of the night, before the advent of electric bulbs, and often get a waking period between sleep in two phases (I assume more in winter months than in summer due to daylight hours). Apparently it was a very popular time for writing by candlelight, and I'm sure the creativity enjoyed by some of this tendency toward hynagogia had plenty to do with it.


Liberals, Fascists, and Communists always like to throw mud at each other as if they're not all cut from the same collectivist cloth (and all responsible for the deaths of millions). Best to pay them no mind.

Personally I'm not much a fan of Reddit or Twitter though, simply because the algorithmic nonsense is clearly there just to drive ad views and not to provide me with the interactions I'm there to have. Nostr is a much more pleasant experience.


This docuseries done by Erik Townsend from about a year or so ago on the need for nuclear and the looming energy cliff gets into some very high quality details and seems to be something the crowd here may be interested in: https://www.energytransitioncrisis.org/


Properly contained nuclear waste is almost as concerning to me as my wifi router is.


What, you don't want AI in your "mv" command, so that it guesses where you want your file moved to, rather than having to type in the destination? Personally I hate the extra keystrokes -- I think we should automate it to run in the background constantly, to make file relocation more efficient.
