That’s called a job buddy. There’s no way I’d be using windows otherwise.

Very, and even people that don’t make it about god, somehow don’t like that I am not religious.

And what about all the children with cancer that were in there getting treatment with you?

This. After leaving Reddit I feel like I lost a place I could post about my little foss app and get people to try it. Specially in the niche topics.

I am trying my best to get people I know try but they don’t understand the domain, and I don’t have a reach to people that will understand

I recommend you gnu parallel. It does similar things, but runs the commands in parallel. And it’s way easier to pipe than xargs. If you really need it to run one command at a time you can give number of cores to 1. And it also has progress bars, colors to differentiate stdout fo different commands, etc.

Basic example: to echo each line

parallel echo < somefile.txt

To download all links, number of jobs 4, show progress

parallel -j 4 --bar ''curl -O" < links.txt

You can do lot more stuffs with inputs, like placing them wherever with {}, numbers ({1} is first) that allow multiple unique arguments, transformers like remove extension, remove parent path, etc. worth learning

Why didn’t we just have people that apply for grants, then people who work on research. Of course the person that applies for the grant should be familiar with the capabilities, and verify the proposal is sound before applying.

I like not seeing people’s pictures in discussions.

I feel like I get a diverse opinion from people of all age, race, and other background. And we are united on our common interests in the topic without an implicit bias.

It might have shortcomings, and my case is for not having your real picture in your profile.

I don’t know the software my uni uses but it marked the bibliography section for plagiarism lol. Not the whole section at once, just a lot of multiple sections containing few bibliography entries, which are alphabetically sorted.

But you need tdf installed on the server for that right?

I realize I rarely have to do it so I tend to just download and open the pdf, or use X forwarding. Or while using emacs I just open the remote file (which basically downloads and opens I guess).

I was thinking I’d appreciate a website/community where people talk about potential new open source software ideas and interested people can collaborate. Could be small things. And able to filter by category, language, etc.

But I don’t know how the logistics would work. But at least minor things that could be fun. But it could be abused. It’s just my thoughts when I’m like “I wanna make something this week”. Or when I start something and I don’t have the skills for all components.

If you swallowed then yeah, extra protein.

If you find half a worm, you just spit it out, cut/bite out the wormy part and continue. Can’t throw the whole fruit. Although the worms I remember in guava make hard shells around them as they eat, so most times you bite into it, know immediately, and throw that part.

For me it’s making something. Mostly coding a new feature on my personal project. Making a new map/plot.

Sometimes just winning a videogame match, or getting that in game achievement.

Wow I have opposite problem. I don’t like reading papers that much. And while I do write I don’t like to spend too much time there either, so I just end up procrastinating by making new things with plots, analysis, codes, helper scripts and such.

I do have a career, I am a specialist of (kinda) GIS and data analysis related to hydrology. I’m currently on the path to complete my PhD within the next year. I have been really successful at pitching my programming ideas on non-programming domain. Solve problems for clients, make applications/algorithms that can outperform what they had before. It does sometimes make me feel like I’m a bit too wide on my skillsets related to others in my field, but at least in my immediate circles, I am still as good in the core aspects of my field. But there are so many people that are better specialist than me if I search around.

But now, due to the current climate, and situation in the USA, I have been thinking I might have to move to another country before I finish PhD, and I might not be able to find a job in another country immediately, so I’m thinking of finding some small gigs I could do for some side income.

Thank you, something like this would work well, if they are small tasks that help the main contributor because they don’t have the time. I do have experience working on those for free :D

I don’t know about the big examples like the one in wiki though

I had upwork account since a long time, last time I tried (was a few years back), it just said “we have a lot of people with your skill, so no” lol
