Think twice before abandoning Xorg. Wayland breaks everything!

Hence, if you are interested in existing applications to "just work" without the need for adjustments, then you may be better off avoiding Wayland.

Wayland solves no issues I have but breaks almost everything I need. Even the most basic, most simple things (like xkill) - in this case with no obvious replacement. And usually it stays broken, because the Wayland folks mostly seem to care about Automotive, Gnome, maybe KDE - and alienating everyone else (e.g., people using just an X11 window manager or something like GNUstep) in the process.

The Wayland project seems to operate like they were starting a greenfield project, whereas at the same time they try to position Wayland as "the X11 successor", which would clearly require a lot of thought about not breaking, or at least providing a smooth upgrade path for, existing software.

In fact, it is merely an incompatible alternative, and not e

At the beginning of 2030, I found this essay in my archives. From what I know today, I think it was very insightful at the moment of writing. And I feel it should be published because it can teach us, Rust developers, how to prevent that sad story from happening again.

What killed Haskell, could kill Rust, too

What killed Haskell, could kill Rust, too. Why would I even mention Haskell in this context? Well, Haskell and Rust are deeply related. Not because Rust is Haskell without HKTs. (Some of you know what that means, and the rest of you will wonder for a very long time). Much of the style of Rust is similar in many ways to the style of Haskell. In some sense Rust is a reincarnation of Haskell, with a little bit of C-ish like syntax, a very small amount.

Is Haskell dead?

This article is inspired of the great guide of How to set up your own private RTMP server using nginx. https://obsproject.com/forum/resources/how-to-set-up-your-own-private-rtmp-server-using-nginx.50/

MonaServer is a tiny and scalable open source server which provide protocols RTMFP, RTMP, RTMPE, WebSocket and HTTP. Server applications are written in lua and clients just need to support one of these protocols.

The interest of MonaServer here is the RTFMP broadcast feature that avoid congestion (because it is a UDP protocol) unlike RTMP.

This guide will presents you an easy way to broadcast a video with OBS over RTMFP. Don't worry, you will not need to configure or write any code here :)

"It has become appallingly obvious that our technology has exceeded our humanity." -Albert Einstein

##Intro

Technology is constantly evolving. For better or for worse, technology has moved forward faster than anything in history. With new devices coming out every few years and our human needs craving for bigger and better things, it make me wonder if technology has moved on in all aspects of life. For example, say the medical field. The medical field is one of the oldest fields in history and having something so new like technology can pose a problem especially when it comes to human life.

The rapid growth of technology has given many fields a chance to grow. However, the medical field has no really embraced its techy roots. Humans are skeptical when it comes to machines for fear that it can be used for the wrong reasons or that the machines lack a conscious. Regardless, it has not stopped dev
