That's Link Time Optimization, right? Put everything into one place for the linker to optimize.

This Triple-Layer Sunlight Catalyst Supercharges Green Hydrogen by 800% in c/science@mander.xyz

The new material has eight times better performance than pure cubic silicon carbide

Nowhere is it stated how efficient either material is, other than to say that the researchers are 5-10 years away from a material that's 10% efficient. So they must have an efficiency of less than that I guess.

From the paper, the closest I can see is:

The applied bias photon-to-current efficiency (ABPE) of the Ni(OH)2/Co3O4/3C-SiC photoanode reached 0.47% at 0.65 V vs RHE, which is 15.6 and 1.8 times higher than that of the 3C-SiC and Co3O4/3C-SiC photoanodes, respectively (Figure 4b)

I don't know how representative that measurement is though.

End of 10 - Windows ten is ending. Microsoft wants you to buy a new computer. But what if you could make your current one fast and secure again? in c/technology@lemmy.world

I see. Surely that means that the source files have to be structured in a certain way then. If a design for a piece of print media was flattened to a single rasterised layer, or a video project had all the effects baked into the clips, a freelancer could deliver in the right format, but that file would be much less useful than if every operation was preserved non-destructively. I would think some artists wouldn't want to just give away how they achieve certain effects.

I don't know if that's much of a thing in creative fields, or if there are conventions on things like keeping text as text, not editing it as vectors or pixels.

Ah, I see. I guess that varies by client but you wouldn't want to limit the work you take like that. That's a difficult situation to change.

Why would a freelancer need to follow an industry standard? Do you have to share project sources with clients in proprietary formats rather than just the final output formats?

There are still opposite charges - each colour has an 'anti'-colour. So R+~~R~~=colourless G+~~G~~=colourless etc. This is how mesons work (pairs of quarks). Baryons are triplets of quarks but there are also combined tetra- and pentaquark states also.

You can think of anti-red as being cyan etc. but the colour theory can be more confusing than it's worth.

What do you use for listening to podcasts? in c/selfhosted@lemmy.world
[–] Morphit@feddit.uk 1 points 2 months ago

I see. mygpo is the code that runs gpodder.net. I guess it could be self-hosted, but it doesn't look straight forward to do so. I missed it since in the docs it's under the developer section, not the user section. gpoddersync seems much easier as long as you're ok using Nextcloud. It would be nice if mygpo were packaged for Nix or docker. Maybe I'll give that a go at some point.

That doesn't clarify anything for me. Is the client application also the service, or are they (as I believe) two different things with the same name?

What I'm really getting at is that FreshRSS is self-hostable and as far as I can tell - gPodder isn't.

I don't think I understood what gPodder is. The website says gpodder.net is a sync service, but doesn't seem to indicate that it can be self hosted. The list of clients has gPodder listed as a desktop PC client to gpodder.net. Does the desktop client also work as a server?

AntennaPod can sync to gpodder.net (only at that url?). When I tried it I got a load of timeouts. Instead I enabled the gpoddersync NextCloud app to my own server. That worked like a charm between AntennaPad and kasts on PC.

Thanks for posting this. I see it was on a few other communities last week but I missed it somehow. Great debugging and reminds me of the classic GTA5 online mode fix.

Does anyone know how debug symbols came to be available for the old games?

Infrared lasers aren't visible. They're still higher frequency than radio waves. To say that visible light is visible radio is to say that the sky is green, just that it's predominantly blue coloured green.

Secret Level (feddit.uk)
 

Has anyone watched the Secret Level shorts released so far?

Unreal Tournament was a huge nostalgia hit for me and I think the episode was a great interpretation of it. I highly recommend for anyone who played.

The Warhammer 40k episode was also great though I don't have the same kind of investment in the games or media there. The others seemed fairly good for what they are but there's only so much that can fit in a 5-15 minute piece.

Amazon Prime Video link for anyone interested.

No monospace code blocks? (feddit.uk)
 

I'm upset that a meme I tried to remake with Unicode box drawing characters lines up terribly in apps: https://lemmy.ca/post/28490027 Shouldn't code blocks render in monospace?

On Lemmy's web frontend it's perfect:

On Connect it looks like this:

On Jerboa it's basically the same:

Eternity does use monospace but the box drawing characters seem to be too wide.

All I can find about it here is one post from a year ago: https://lemmy.ca/post/1492857

Envious of thumb clusters? Have a gap in your matrix? Why not spend an inordinate amount of time extending your keyboard? (feddit.uk)
 

cross-posted from: https://feddit.uk/post/12276336

Sorry for the crap photos - I just wanted to share these extra keys I added to my Lily58.

I noticed there was a gap in the matrix so I tacked a spare hot-swap socket to the pads on the back of the PCB. That worked with minimal modification to my QMK set-up. I couldn't really use it dangling off some wires so I set out to make an extension that would slot in and be retained by one of the standoffs. I don't have a laser cutter or 3D printer so I just hacked these out of a sheet of ABS plastic following a printed template and glued them up. They're nice and solid and line up really well, despite being rather rough around some of the edges.

I'm finding the 1.5U keys a bit confusing at the moment, swapping them out for 1U keys makes it a bit easier to home my thumbs. These are certainly much easier to access than the outermost keys on the lower row or the keys below the display. I'm thinking they need to be called Lily Pads.

[Help] User service with Python packages for Jupyter (feddit.uk)
 

Hi All,
I'm still very new to Nix but trying to daily-drive NixOS.

What I'm currently stuck on is injecting Python packages into a Jupyterlab service. What I have at the moment in the home-manager.home portion of my system flake is the following:

  systemd.user.services.jupyter = let
    jupyter = pkgs.jupyter-all.override {
      python3 = pkgs.python311.withPackages (python-pkgs: with python-pkgs; [
        numpy
        matplotlib
      ]);
    };
  in {
    Service = {
      Type = "simple";
      WorkingDirectory = "${home.homeDirectory}/notebooks";
      ExecStart = "${jupyter}/bin/jupyter-lab --no-browser";
    };
  };

This fires up a JupyterLab process that I can connect to and which runs fine, but numpy etc. can't be imported. From a devshell, I see that the python.withPackages mechanism seems to rely on $PYTHONPATH to pass in a python3-3.11.8-env package that contains a lib/python3.11/site-packages. I'm guessing that the systemd service just needs to have an Environment key, but where do I get the python3-3.11.8-env path from?

The Jupiter executable is in a /nix/store/#-python3-3.11.8-env/bin location, but the site-packages only include the modules for Jupyter so I assume there's another python3-3.11.8-env in the nix-store that does have the python packages I'm trying to get. Trying things like jupyter.env gives errors like *** Python 'env' attributes are intended for interactive nix-shell sessions, not for building! *** but I'm just taking a stab in the dark here.

I'd appreciate any pointers on this. I see there are helpers like JupyEnv, but these seem focused on setting up ephemeral devshells, not running a service for long-term notes and seem like overkill for what I want.

[Bug] Unremovable account (feddit.uk)
 

I seem to have gotten a saved account that can't be switched to and therefore can't be removed.

My instance had some server side issues and on PC I had to delete my cookies to get the desktop site to work. Connect wouldn't work and I had to add the account again. At some point the account name has changed to my email address @feddit.uk, which looks weird since it has two @ symbols. The newly added account works fine, but there's this stuck second version of it.

When I try to switch to the broken version I get an error pop up that just says "Error: unable to switch to 'me@email.domain@feddit.uk'" and it seems to retain the currently selected account.

Since I can't switch to that account, I can't sign out to have Connect forget it. So I don't see a way to get rid of it.

Has anyone else run into the same problem? Any suggestions?
