If your ChatGPT desktop app on macOS opens to nothing but the logo in the center—and never loads—you’re not alone. I ran into this issue myself, and the usual fixes didn’t work at first. Here’s what I tried, what failed, and the solution that finally fixed it. The Problem After launching the ChatGPT macOS app: The window opens normally Only the ChatGPT logo appears The app never loads the interface No error messages are shown What Didn’t Work Before finding the solution, I tried the obvious fixes: ...

Work in Progress, but the important tips are already included! Bulid Toolchains You’ll need basic build tools such as gprbuild, gprmake, and those are distributed with GCC. On Apple silicon you should use simonjwright/distributing-gcc. Download release with the name aarch64. Follow the wiki. Bug basically you’ll do Right Click the downloaded file to install Add the path /opt/gcc-VERSION-aarch64/bin to $PATH Then, you can check the installation with $ which gprbuild. Output should show the location of your gcc(default: /opt/gcc-VERSION-aarch64/bin). ...

Preface As stated in the Handbook, as of December 2023, Gentoo officially supports installing binary packages. Following this update, I installed a new Gentoo machine on a VPS, and this post summarizes how to use binary packages along the way. binrepos.conf In addition to /etc/portage/repos.conf/gentoo.conf, we now write /etc/portage/binrepos.conf/gentoo.conf for binary packages. (This example uses the KAIST mirror.) [binhost] priority = 9999 sync-uri = http://ftp.kaist.ac.kr/gentoo/releases/amd64/binpackages/17.1/x86-64/ Make binary default If you want binary packages to be installed by default, add the following setting to /etc/portage/make.conf. ...

My not so Extremely Minimal Alt + Ctrl + Shift. Moved to Modular Structure from Literate Org-Mode config This post doesn’t strictly follow the most recent version(Updated: 2024-04-05). That’s available on Github. (Prefer Built-in packages over 3rd Party ones.) JEMACS Emacs really does stand for “Escape-Meta-Alt-Control-Shift”, and not “Editing Macros”, as you may have heard from other disreputable sources (like the Emacs author). — The Gnus Newsreader Manual > 12.7.1 Keystrokes BTW, I prefer all headings fall nicely under the main & top node, so the H1. ...

This is a list I put together for my own studies. So if you have any questions about the curricula, please direct them here. At Least Must study at least these two books.

This is a list I put together for my own studies. So if you have any questions about the curricula, please direct them here. Start with Algebra Pre-Algebra covers ‘natural numbers, integers, fractions, decimals, percentages, real numbers, linear equations, basic geometry, and graphs’, which you would ‘normally’ have learned in secondary school, so I consider it an optional step. Pre-Algebra, Nichols Elementary Algebra, Sullivan, Struve, Mazzarella or with Discrete Math Pick one of below, but 2-4 are really hard. I would take 1 & 2. ...

This is a list I put together for my own studies. So if you have any questions about the curricula, please direct them here (original) or here (updated). Before You Start Getting Inspired The First Three Minutes by Steven Weinberg (Level: Easy). An account of the Big Bang by one of the most brilliant physicists of all time. The Character of Physical Law by Richard Feynman (Level: Easy). A brilliant, inspiring little book on the laws of nature. The Particle Odyssey by Frank Close (Level: Easy). A brilliant popular introduction to particle physics and its history, beautifully illustrated with amazing figures and photographs. (Unfortunately it’s a bit difficult to find online right now, but if you find a copy, you should buy it ASAP!) Black Holes and Time Warps by Kip Thorne (Level: Easy/Medium). My absolute favorite popular introduction to general relativity. The Theoretical Minimum by Leonard Susskind and George Hrabovsky (Level: Medium). A solid introduction to classical mechanics. Is best understood around level 5 in the undergraduate curriculum. The Feynman Lectures on Physics (Boxed Set) and Feynman Lectures on Physics (Kindle Edition) (Level: Medium). Feynman’s Lectures are essential readings for everyone interested in physics, and you’ll find a copy on the bookshelf of every amateur and professional physicist. These lectures are what got me into physics: my astronomy professor told me to read them and see if I liked physics - they changed my life! They are somewhat difficult to understand if you are just getting started, but they will make more and more sense by the time you reach levels 5 and 6 in the undergraduate curriculum. Deep Down Things: The Breathtaking Beauty of Particle Physics by Bruce Schumm (Level: Difficult). The very best popular book about particle physics — it clearly explains the most difficult concepts without resorting to speculation. (I had the honor of working with Bruce on a search for supersymmetry at the ATLAS detector.) This book is a great read while you are starting level 7 in the undergraduate curriculum. Mathematics Why Math? by R.D. Driver Undergraduate Introduction to Mechanics University Physics with Modern Physics by Young and Freedman (essential). Work through all of the “Mechanics” chapters (in my edition, these are chapters 1-14). This is the best introductory book I’ve found, and you can use it when you learn electrostatics and modern physics, too. It does a great job of introducing the relevant mathematics, but you’ll need to be learning calculus alongside it. There are plenty of great example problems to work through, and the solutions are easy to find online (though you can also buy a Student Solutions Manual). Please note that you don’t need to spend $250 on the new edition — Amazon has lots of copies of the 12th edition, the 13th edition, and the 14th edition that contain the same material. You’ll need to learn calculus while working through University Physics. My favorite introductory calculus book is Thomas’ Calculus (you can also use the earlier editions), with Stewart’s Calculus(older edition here) coming in as a close second. Work through each chapter, and make sure you can solve problems at the end of each chapter before continuing to the next. Electrostatics Keep working through the calculus textbooks (Thomas or Stewart) while you work through the basics of electrostatics, but you should finish them by the time you finish the electromagnetism chapters in University Physics. You absolutely must understand the basics of calculus before you move on to the other topics in physics. ...

🔧 Back to the Roots Those of you who, like me, care about where things come from probably already know this: the reason Bill Joy’s vi uses h, j, k, l as arrow keys, the reason esc is used to switch modes, and especially the reason Unix-like systems started abbreviating the home directory as ~ all trace back to the ADM-3A keyboard. That’s because this is the keyboard Bill Joy was using while he developed vi. ...

I know fcitx, scim, and others work well too, but I’ve been using ibus ever since I first started using Linux, so this guide is based on ibus. Before We Begin (1) If You Use Gnome Gnome is now developed with ibus integrated. On most distributions, if you use the Gnome desktop environment, you can do the steps below through the Settings app. Check the Region & Language options! (2) Characters Show Up as Boxes? When Korean characters on a web page show up as boxes, regardless of input, the cause is the font. Fix it by installing a font that can display Hangul, for example noto-fonts-cjk. ...

the Grand Unified Settings Theory This isn’t an explanation of any particular distribution’s features but my opinions; all my opinions on various programs are collected here. Gentoo + Dwm 😊 (I run dwm/st/dmenu with nothing but source edits, no patchez) Criteria for Preference 0. Documentation Basically, and personally, my broad preferences come down to how well something is documented. For example, For distributions, the old Gentoo wiki, the current Arch wiki For window managers, Xmonad For terminals, kitty, which even has separate documentation just for its config For color themes, Dracula or Nord I prefer things that are well documented like these. ...

How to set a proper password Preface People who are interested in cybersecurity or who work in development probably already know this, but I’m writing it because so many others seem to either misunderstand it or not care. Below, for ease of understanding, I describe the estimated time to ‘hack’ or ‘guess’ a password, but strictly speaking it isn’t ‘hacking’ in itself. It’s ‘the estimated time it would take to find the right answer when the only goal is to find the password’. ...

Preface This post walks through ways to manage dotfiles in stages: manually, with Git, with symbolic links, and with GNU stow. Dotfiles On Unix-related systems (Unix, BSD, Linux, etc.), putting a . in front of a file name makes it a hidden file that isn’t shown by plain ls. Taking advantage of this, plain text files containing various program settings have traditionally been named with a leading .. For example, suppose that while building a program called Hello, ...

Preface As with the Arch Linux installation guide, my basic criterion for deciding whether to write a new post is ‘was this actually hard for me to learn?’. Writing about things that already have plenty of good guides in English or Korean, things I had no trouble learning on my own and that people after me can easily learn too, would be nothing more than showing off, along the lines of ’look at all the cool stuff I know’. ...

A Little History In 1991, Linus Torvalds announced ‘Linux Kernel, ver.0.01’. It then incorporated the utilities of Richard Stallman’s ‘GNU (GNU is Not Unix)’ and established itself as a true operating system (OS). In 1991, H. J. Lu’s ‘Boot-Root’ was born as disk images that included the Linux kernel. To make up for the difficult installation process and limited package management of the very early days (1991–92), ‘SLS (Softlanding Linux System)’ appeared. It reportedly included a graphical environment via the X Window System. It can be considered the first appearance of the distribution format that continues to this day. ...

Preface If you aren’t particularly curious about the history of UNIX, you can jump straight to ‘Types of Linux Distributions’. UNIX To explain the history of UNIX (hereafter ‘Unix’), we have to go back to the mid-1960s. At the time, MIT, AT&T’s Bell Labs, and GE (General Electric) were working on an experimental time-sharing operating system called Multics (hereafter ‘Multics’) for the GE-645 mainframe (the ancestor of today’s operating systems, where multiple simultaneous users and multitasking are taken for granted). Disappointed by the size and complexity of Multics, Bell Labs gradually pulled out of the research, but Ken Thompson, Dennis Ritchie, Doug McIlroy, and Joe Ossanna, who remained interested until the end, did not. Judging that the project had simply been ahead of its time, the four wanted to keep experimenting on a somewhat smaller scale. ...

Preface I often see people asking why they should use Arch Linux. I can’t objectively and crisply explain it as ’these are the strengths, these are the weaknesses, but this is what makes it attractive’ either (of course, the strengths and appeal I feel are clear to me, but they’re very subjective). What I do know clearly, and can share with you, is that ‘installing Arch Linux isn’t nearly as bewilderingly hard as it seems’. ...

Preface This Gentoo Linux installation guide has completely changed direction. It’s now meant for people already familiar with the installation, for when consulting the Handbook is a hassle. If you’re new to Gentoo Linux or not yet comfortable with Linux, please refer to the Handbook. As of December 2023, Gentoo officially supports binary packages. I’ve written a separate post on how to install binary packages.
