We Live In The Year 2779 From The Founding Of Rome

We live in the year AUC 2779, or AUC MMDCCLXXVIII in Roman numerals.

Ab Urbe Condita, often abbreviated as AUC, means "From The Founding Of The City". It refers to the year of the founding of Rome, which was the Epoch used in Ancient Rome.

Or it is feature complete and doesn't need constant updates?

As long as it is being used daily, I think a project is still alive.

I completely agree with you.

It even got to the point where I implemented my own Insomnia/Bruno alternative and I have been using it exclusively for months now. Because Bruno lacked some features I needed.

Last time I checked, Bruno implemented these features, but my version is still much faster and uses minimum resources in comparison (C++ and wxWidgets).

There's no difference with the "real" world.

It's like you never read the quote, and if you read it you did not understand it.

Let me guess: you definitely don't consider the possibility of trying your best to be realistic.

Thank you so much for sharing your story.

It also gives us a change in perspective about things in life. Not only about luck, but also about science and the wonders of the modern world.

I can't upvote you more than once, therefore purchasing the book seems like the logical option.

I enjoyed a lot the small sample of jokes you have on the website.

Kudos to you!

You may get the same guarantees on paper, but at this point there's absolutely no reason to trust any AI provider.

At best they get a fine, and it will not make a dent in their cash reserves.

You definitely can. There's the framework laptop, and also many Lenovo models are bulkier and more robust.

Yeah, it has to be a friend phone as mine has command line via ssh (and tailscale).

Woah, I certainly did!

I am interested in the following use case: convert the PDF to e-pub, then edit it with Calibre to fix some issues that always happen.

Currently using pandoc.

Is there anything in this project that was not already easily available with command line tools?

It read to me as a case of: "only webpages are software, and I'm afraid of the command line".

Really. All he wants was very easy to do already.

I wish that twitter format was unfamiliar.

Really.

It has been spammed all over for the last 15 years.

I just do my part to discourage it.
