  • I’ve used ‘KillTheNewsletter’ a lot. And then it hit me. Most email clients have features I want for my feeds (filtering, auto-sorting into folders by keywords, etc.)

    So far, only emacs (forgot extension name) and feedbro (firefox extension) have similar festures to these…

    Hence, I’m yet to try it, but might create an account only for feeds. And then use rss2email (pypi)

    Is anyone else using this tool? I’d love to hear it…











  • Did anyone read the grammar of graphics paper from Hadley Wickham? I kind of enjoyed it a lot, and got to know what’s the power source really. I’m amazed so many software libraries came to reinvent compossibility in such unergonomic ways… But it’s nice to have options.

    I think I might prefer base R over matplotlib though… :p


  • Can you do a plot a hundred times with a hundred different datasets with these templates? Without having to apply such template to each file, just pointing to the folder with them…

    To me that’s the whole point of programming, you can automatically do a thing and it doesn’t matter if it took an hour to write the code. Once you have it, you point it to the folder with all datasets, iterate over while you drink a coffee and then you have the hundreds of plots.







  • Gaming on linux is not that bad today. Look at valve’s success with the steamdeck. All past and present issues are because developers were aiming to a different platform, with proprietary tooling.

    In meme terms, is like Fender made the guitars for people with different hands. You can’t play, but it’s their fault.



  • One could also think that whoever packaged this was hurried while filling a form, and wanted to provide credit where it was due. So, maybe they were on the best of their intents… We don’t know.

    If I were to use this, I would check other apps from same uploader. Or better, see what permissions are being asked…

    In any case, trusting blindly github contributors on teamnewpipe organization is not extremely different.

    Trust and credibility are volatile and freely given. It’s youtube, not my bank account ;p
