    1. The typewriter was made in Siegmar-Schönau—a suburb of Chemnitz—by Wanderer, an early German pioneer in manufacturing bicycles, motorcycles, cars, and later military trucks and tanks for the Wehrmacht, the armed forces in the Nazi era. In the 1930s, Wanderer’s automotive division was one of four car companies consolidated into the Auto Union AG, which later became Audi. Indeed, one of the four interconnected rings on the Audi brand logo represents Wanderer.

    1. Prepare yourself a bottle of silicon lubricant and a pencil torch. Go under the clutch and aim your lubricant towards the upper side of the clutch (near the joint). Spray it, step the clutch few times and repeat this once more. All the squeak will be gone, as simple as that.

    1. Crosley's intent for his car was well summarized by his proclamation "You wouldn't cross a river in a battleship," nor would you want to cross town in a large family car just to purchase groceries or have coffee with a friend.

      I'm afraid I'm having a problem coming up with any other reference (aside from the latest Grand Tour episode) to corroborate this quote...

    1. Auto-update aside, you might also have found it hard to find a Chrome binary with a specific version. Google intentionally doesn’t make versioned Chrome downloads available, since users shouldn’t have to care about version numbers—they should always get updated to the latest version as soon as possible. This is great for users, but painful for developers needing to reproduce a bug report in an older Chrome version.

    1. It is handy to manually generate the diagram from times to times using the previously created command: npm run db:diagram:generate. Though, getting the diagram to update itself on its own automatically without a developer interaction would ensure that it the diagram is never obsolete. There are several ways of doing this.You could use a pre-commit git hook or even better simply configure your CI/CD pipeline(s) to run the npm script whenever something gets merged into the main branch 🙂
    1. Testing if Google Chrome can make annotations on this Auto Hotkey documentation page.

      It (and Brave) can't make highlights or annotations for some reason. The prompt doesn't appear when text is highlighted, why is this? Is there a way to force the prompt to appear?

    2. Page: Escape Sequences

      I was looking for documentation on escaped characters.

      This was because Auto Hotkey threw an error when I used <%* %> as an option for the text insert script. It said the illegal character was * but really what was happening was that the unquoted text %* % was treated like a variable since % is used to enclose variables in Auto Hotkey. The solution was to escape the percent sign with one left back tick.

    1. Louis Burki 6 months ago (edited) I have make some changes to make it work, because I had a similar error. First, I have add a ":" before the "=" in the Text variable at the beginning of the script. Now it looks like that: "Text:=". Then I have put double quotes around (**your snippets**) so now it looks like this "(***your snippets***)". Then, I also changed the sort line to make it look that: Text:= sort(Text). And now it works as intended. Also, be careful not to remove the pipe symbol in your snippets.

      Someone giving a troubleshooting solution to using Joe Glines' Auto Hotkey script that inserts text from a list of the user's choosing. The problem another user had was including it in their main script file, but this was resolved with Louis Burki's answer

    1. Some software attempts to hide this by translating the bytes of invalid UTF-8 to matching characters in Windows-1252 (since that is the most likely source of these errors), so that the replacement character is never seen.

    1. auto-fit 效果几乎和 auto-fill 一样。 不同点仅在于,当容器的大小大于各网格项之和时,auto-fill 会持续地在一端放入空行或空列,这样就会使所有网格项挤到另一边;而 auto-fit 则不会在一端放入空行或空列,而是会将所有网格项拉伸至合适的大小。

    1. We will also show you how to de-link your Chrome profile from your Google account(s) by stopping Chrome from syncing with Google in the first place. This will help keep your Chrome profile separate from your Google account and enhance your online privacy.
    2. To do that, Chrome automatically links your Chrome profile to a Google account when you sign in to any Google service on the web. That helps Google deliver a ‘seamless experience’ across all devices by letting you sync your history, bookmarks, passwords, etc., across multiple devices. Meanwhile, privacy-conscious users see this as a major threat to their online privacy and advise users to remove their Google account from Chrome.
    3. As mentioned already, Chrome automatically signs you in to your Google account every time you sign into a Google service, like Gmail, YouTube, Google Photos, etc. It also links your current Chrome profile to that account. While Google says that it does so to offer a ‘seamless experience’, it is a privacy nightmare for many users.
    1. Some Chrome users may like the new functionality as it makes it easier for them to sign in or out of Chrome and Google on the Web. Others may dislike it for privacy and user-choice reasons. Think about it, if you sign in to Chrome you are automatically recognized by any Google property on the web as that Google user.

    1. I have never seen the @Stale bot or any directly equivalent to it achieve a net positive outcome. Never. It results in disgruntled people, extra expenditure of effort (for reporters and maintainers), real stuff getting lost when people get fed up with poking the bot (I have no intention of poking it further), and more extensive filing of duplicates. You say a simple comment dismisses it, but it doesn’t—it only does this time. Next time, it continues to annoy. This is an issue tracker. Use labels, projects, milestones and the likes for prioritising stuff. Not sweeping stuff under the carpet.
    2. It is an issue tracker but we don't have a backlog, or planning sessions, or a project board. Or the resources to even triage and tag effectively. If it is important someone will respond / reopen, popular issues are exempt from the bot, we can't fix everything and this is pretty much our only view on stuff that need to be addressed. We need to make some attempt to make sure that everything is still relevant and reduce the noise to a degree where we can actually manage it. I understand the trade-offs with stale bots but we don't have many options. I appreciate your experiences but that doesn't make them a fact. We have discussed this internally and this is what we are doing. If you have any other actionable alternatives outside of saying the bot is bad then we are all ears.
    3. Closing issues doesn’t solve anything. Closing issues in GitHub just sweeps them under the carpet and helps everyone to forget about them, which is just not what you want—the fact that GitHub search excludes closed items by default is a large part of the problem with it. As applied to software projects with general-purpose issue trackers, the @Stale bot is fundamentally phenomenally bad idea, a road paved with good intentions. I presented an actionable alternative: labels. Possibly automatically applied, but it’s certainly better to spend a little bit of time on manual triage. It honestly doesn’t take long to skim through a few hundred issues and bin them into labels. 609 open issues? That’s honestly not a problem. Not at all. There’s nothing wrong with having a large number of issues open, if they do correspond to real things—even things that you may not expect to get to for years, if ever, because that might change or someone might decide they want to deal with one. Closing issues that aren’t dealt with is bad. Please don’t do it.
    4. Most issues have been manually labelled as stale rather than automated and closure will be manual too, so we have time to think.

    1. This semi-colon is added to prevent changing the code behaviour (the famous line ending with parentheses, etc) Most people will use a JS minifier If they don't, a single extra character is unlikely to change much If I'm right about all the above: Why don't we simply always add a semi-colon regardless of what the file ends with?

    1. About auto-close bots... I can appreciate the need for issue grooming, but surely there must a better way about it than letting an issue or PR's fate be semi-permanently decided and auto-closed by an unknowing bot. Should I be periodically pushing up no-op commits or adding useless "bump" comments in order to keep that from happening? I know the maintainers are busy people, and that it can take a long time to work through and review 100s of open issues and PRs, so out of respect to them, I was just taking a "be patient; they'll get to it when they get to it" approach. Sometimes an issue is not so much "stale" as it is unnoticed, forgotten about, or consciously deferred for later. So if anything, after a certain length of time, if a maintainer still hasn't reviewed/merged/accepted/rejected a pull request, then perhaps it should instead be auto-bumped, put on top of the queue, to remind them that they (preferably a human) still need to review it and make a decision about its fate... :)

    1. I was now about to form another being of whose dispositions I was alike ignorant; she might become ten thousand times more malignant than her mate and delight, for its own sake, in murder and wretchedness.

      No one knows what someone will be like after they've been brought into the world, but we don't lament every single person who is born. When someone you know is having a kid you don't say to them: "remember H.H. Holmes? Are you sure you want to have kid? They might be ten thousand times worse than H.H. Holmes!" Because that would be ridiculous.

      Quando a um sujeito faltam propósitos de vida, condição em que sequer se pode falar em planejamento e perseguição de metas, em que pode consistir mudar a vida?

      Em ter propósitos, em planejar metas e em adotar estratégias para alcançá-las.

      Primeiramente, a criação, o desenvolvimento e a prática de hábitos cruciais ao despertar dos próprios sonhos, à definição de propósitos, ao planejamento de metas e, por conseguinte, ao estabelecimento e à prática de estratégias dirigidas à sua consecução.

      A consecução de metas é uma conquista. Toda conquista propriamente dita é uma luta. Assim, mudar a maneira como vivemos a vida consistiria, então, num empoderamento em favor da luta.

      A questão que daí emerge - questão em geral muda e que não quer permanecer calada - é sobre as possíveis categorias de luta.

      Se nos atemos àquela que é mais famosa, hoje mais atrativa à academia e ao ringue, ficamos com a luta individual.

      Uma segunda categoria é a da luta familiar, aquela em que a família se une como um time. Embora valorizada e frequentemente associada à luta individual, a luta familiar goza de muito menos prestígio.

      Porém, ainda que muito menos atrativa - uma vez que extensa e intensamente vilipendiada, bem como de ainda mais difícil prática, há também a luta coletiva, categoria que não abole as outras, antes podendo abarca-las no seu seio, em benefício de todos os seus praticantes.

      Uma vez que são os propósitos a definir as inclinações, cabe considerar nos sonhos a sua vinculação a tais categorias.

      O que se deseja do viver? Se queremos mudar a maneira como vivemos a vida, em favor de que propósitos é que pretendemos fazê-lo? Os propósitos de vida de alguém seguramente não se confinam a um único ringue. A luta individual, a luta familiar e a luta coletiva são categorias não só praticáveis em conjunto, mas que até mesmo se beneficiam de serem praticadas desde uma visão do conjunto em que, aliás, necessariamente tomam parte.

      Livro característico dos discursos de auto-ajuda, O Milagre da Manhã, de Hal Elrod, certamente traz boas doses de um embriagante individualismo. Mas isso não quer dizer que o seu conteúdo não sirva até mesmo ao empoderamento para a luta coletiva. É questão de empreender uma abordagem que, longe de inocente às armadilhas da interpretação, esteja desperta diante de dois precipícios: aquele no fundo do qual ouvimos o canto de serei do individualismo e aquele que nos incita ao mero e tolo repúdio a tudo o que exalte a individualidade, quando de fato é neste que uma primeira e crucial mudança precisa ser operada.

      Afirmar, como o faço, que o sujeito precisa, assim como preciso, mudar a maneira como vive a vida não é o mesmo que dizer que o sujeito deve se confinar no estreito do individualismo, mas, isto sim, que uma mudança positiva do sujeito - portanto, com vistas a tornar-se, como se diz, "uma pessoa melhor" - envolve a atenção e o cultivo de três dimensões de nossas vidas: a individualidade, a sociedade , o meio ambiente.

      Essa perspectiva holística remete ao teor germinal de toda espiritualidade anterior e não confinável a qualquer religião. A integralidade da semente que em cada qual se compõe - ou pode se (re)compor - quer buscar a luz, a fim de germinar. Seus nutrientes precisam de qualidade na percepção, na afecção e na concepção das relações que tecemos na intensidade e na extensão do indivíduo, do coletivo e de nosso meio. No que concebo como "o melhor", essas dimensões são indissociáveis, sob pena de nos mutilarmos, a cada qual e ao todo.

      Todos os dias, cada pessoa - ainda que não o saiba - está diante da oportunidade de começar um milagre pessoal. E também a oportunidade de tomar parte na tecitura de um milagre mais vasto, que nos inclui e nos supera, se estendendo para além de nós, milagre que depende de nós, o Milagre do Amanhã, daquele amanhã que figuremos como futuro desejável para as vidas pessoais e a vida coletiva, para a vida humana e de tudo o mais que vive, para a vida no planeta. Para a Vida, o milagre de afirmá-la, ainda mais quando muito a absorve e mutila e nega em sua beleza, extensão, potência e diversidade.

      Quaisquer que sejam os propósitos, quaisquer que sejam as lutas, xs leitores de O Milagre do Amanhã podem se beneficiar, cada qual a seu modo, das lições passíveis de serem depreendidas da leitura. Tanto melhor o fará - eis a minha perspectiva - quanto melhor se equilibrarem entre aqueles limites, cientes de que a leitura é diálogo, quer consigo, quer com outras pessoas, quer com a vida, quer com o mundo que nos atravessa. Deste mundo nos cabe cuidar em pelo menos dois sentidos: cuidar que as forças que o reduzem, com isso nos reduzindo, não venham a prosperar sobre nós de modo a nos tolher a própria potência da vida; cuidar para que se amplie a nossa compreensão do mundo, individual e coletiva do, assim o fazendo pelo bem próprio e pelo bem comum.

      Que os ritos propostos como 'life savers' nos sirvam a todxs na amplitude de seu possível alcance, portanto na salvação de vidas.

    1. These models are emerging, which is why its exciting to be involved in the ground floor of this sector, however some models clearly make sense already and thats largely because they closely follow the models free software itself has shaped. If you want status, then you can make a name for yourself by leading a team to write the docs ala free software itself, if you want money then build the reputation for the documentation team and contract out your knowledge (eg. extend the docs on contract ala free software).

      Creo que hay que conectarlo con modelos de microfinanciación y tiendas independientes tipo Itch.io y que el experimento debería ser progresivo pero dejar un mapa posible de su propio futuro. Algo así intentaremos en la edición 13a del Data Week.

    1. Looking for cheap car insurance in Virginia should be carefully reviewed. Buying an car is expensive and you will be tempted to compensate the expense with cheap insurance. Cheap car insurance will result in being cost effective at the time of accident. You should buy inexpensive car insurance that gives you the compulsory minimum cover requisite in the Commonwealth of Virginia, the important covers to take care of your major expenses during an accident, and eliminates minor covers that may saddle you with a hefty premium payment. This will give you the satisfaction of driving a car with the support of adequate car insurance.

    1. When you contain the source of a thought, that thought can change along with you as you acquire new knowledge and new skills.  When you contain the source of a thought, it becomes truly a part of you and grows along with you. Strive to make yourself the source of every thought worth thinking.  If the thought originally came from outside, make sure it comes from inside as well.  Continually ask yourself:  "How would I regenerate the thought if it were deleted?"

      I really don't see myself being able to do anything like this

    1. ¿Es posible pensar en configuraciones no totalizantes que no se comporten como sistemas convencionales pero que, sin embargo, actúen como un todo? Dicho de otra manera, el pensamiento de sistemas se basa en la idea de que el todo surge de la interacción de las partes. Durante las últimas tres décadas las teorías de emergencia y auto-organización han puesto de relieve el hecho de que estos procesos dan lugar a sistemas complejos que no son fijos ni estáticos sino abiertos y adaptables y, a menudo, existen dentro de condiciones de inestabilidad y lejos del equilibrio

      O en equilibrio dinámico.

    2. Para los posestructuralistas puede ser cuestionable el uso de este concepto que, como la estructura, la identidad o la esencia, ha sido fuertemente criticado y deconstruido por sus conexiones con la organicidad, la totalización y el comportamiento a la manera de una ley, sin siquiera mencionar las aplicaciones militares-industriales posibilitadas por el análisis de sistemas. Esta crítica es importante; sin embargo, es otro ejemplo de la manera como el posestructuralismo deconstruye demasiado y no reconstruye lo suficiente. Las nociones de redes y entramados (assemblages) han sido, por supuesto, importantes agendas reconstructivas (e.g., Latour 2007; de Landa 2006) pero es justo decir que la cuestión de las totalidades (wholes), la forma y la coherencia sigue sin resolverse en la teoría social. La teoría de la complejidad ofrece pistas útiles en este sentido. Como Mark Taylor (2001) señalara al discutir estos conceptos “después de considerar la lógica de las redes debe quedar claro que los sistemas y las estructuras —sean biológicas, sociales o culturales— son más diversas y complejas que lo que los críticos deconstructivos piensan. Los sistemas de auto-organización emergentes actúan como un todo pero no totalizan [...] En vez de reprimir las diferencias [como temen los deconstructivistas] la actividad global [i.e., sistémica] aumenta la diversidad de la que dependen la creatividad y la vida productiva” (

    1. Muchas personas consideran que la teoría de sistemas vivos es la base del diseño para la conservación, regeneración y cuidado de los sistemas naturales; estos objetivos involucran ‘sembrar’ todos los sistemas socionaturales con diversidad y crear resiliencia a través de redes inteligentes, aprovechando el potencial de autoorganización de los sistemas naturales y sociales. Algunos teóricos de la ecología van en contra de la dominancia del diseño experto y claman por [...] un proceso profundamente participativo en el que los lenguajes y las barreras técnico/disciplinarias se transformen hacia una comprensión compartida del problema del diseño. El diseño ecológico cambia las viejas reglas sobre qué importa al conocimiento y quién cuenta como conocedor. Sugiere que la sostenibilidad es un proceso cultural más que experto y que todos debemos adquirir una competencia básica en la formación de nuestro mundo [...] Durante demasiado tiempo hemos esperado que las profesiones del diseño transformen un mundo considerado como inerte de tal forma que funcione. La alternativa es tratar de catalizar, suavemente, las potencialidades de auto-diseño de la naturaleza (van der Ryn y Cowan 2007: 147, 130).

      [...] El enfoque de diseño ontológico de Ehrenfeld (2008: 21) lo lleva a concluir que la sostenibilidad puede ser posible a través del diseño, pero para que esto ocurra debe tener lugar una “convulsión cultural”. Podemos colocar esta declaración en la misma clase que las convocatorias a las transiciones civilizadoras que discutiré en el Capítulo 4. Para muchos movimientos sociales étnico-territoriales la sostenibilidad involucra la defensa de toda una forma de vida, un modo de ser-saber-hacer. Estas son algunas de las contribuciones más importantes a la red de conversaciones recurrentes que componen la crisis ecológica y los intentos por corregirla

      Quizás las primeras prácticas para ese diseño que se inspira en lo local y lo vivo pasen por dinámicas que potencien individuos y pequeñas comunidades, como el proyecto de trabajo en abierto que surgió del reciente encuentro con bibliotecas públicas.

    2. el metarrelato del ‘razonamiento abstracto’ del conocimiento ignora una característica muy importante de la producción de conocimiento que el pensamiento de diseño no olvida: el hecho de que la creación es siempre emergente, en los dos sentidos del término, es decir, auto-organizada y ‘alter-organizada’. Este último calificativo significa que el académico/diseñador también establece elementos y toma decisiones que permiten que la dinámica de auto-organización despegue y haga su trabajo.

      ¿Hasta qué punto el Data Week y las Data Rodas han permitido alter-organizaciones?
