One day Shizuo Kakutani . . . was teaching a class at Yale. He wrote down a lemma on the blackboard and announced that the proof was obvious. One student timidly raised his hand and said that it wasn’t obvious to him. Could Kakutani explain? After several moments’ thought, Kakutani realized that he could not himself prove the lemma. He apologized, and said that he would report back at their next class meeting.

After class, Kakutani went straight to his office. He labored for quite a time and found that he could not prove the pesky lemma. He skipped lunch and went to the library to track down the lemma. After much work, he finally found the original paper. The lemma was stated clearly and succinctly. For the proof, the author had written, “Exercise for the reader.” The author of this 1941 paper was Kakutani.

definitely not an obscure meme

OK but that still doesn’t help me go from “I know the difference between integers and floating point variables and how to make loops” to “Hey Mom here’s a new house I bought with my stock options from my startup”

Then what’s the class C passenger vehicle license of coding that everyone needs to survive in the modern world from teenagers to grandparents? I just want to drive a sedan from point A to point B, maybe pick up a piece of furniture from Costco or a litter from soccer practice in an SUV once in a while.

Isn’t that the least updated of the above choices? (if you run stable)

IIRC it always had threaded comments but yes subreddits took years. Shamefully I was very much in the anti subreddit camp and argued fiercely for tags instead like Flickr (RIP)

Lemmy with Sync is pretty baller though not sure what everyone is complaining about.

try attaching a wrist support? the Kensington expert comes with one I think, I like the slim blade but may be too low profile for you

I only use track balls that are bigger and use 4 fingers that way I get way more control, less movement of my joints/wrist, and far more comfortable. Never figured out how to use a thumb one.

Same after dashlane just announced they’re limiting the number of passwords you can use on the free account, migrating was painless

I was going to say lojban but this works too

Gentoo? LFS?
