Show HN: Oxbow, a dynamic tiling window manager for the Wayland compositor Riverhttps://oxbow-wm.readthedocs.io/en/latest/It's inspired by dwm, but it's configured via an ipc/init script, like river-classic, which makes it a bit easier to get into/test. Specifically, it has:- Tags: Group windows with tag sets, per-tag layouts, and operations on tags.- Layouts: dwm-like tiling, niri-ish scrolling in four orientations, “alt-tab” overview, and pure floating.- Windows: Scratchpads, sticky windows, user labels, window swallowing, and drag with retile.- Rules: Regex window matching to configure initial tags, output, floating, size, and presentation.- IPC: Control windows, configure tags, query objects, and subscribe to events.Maybe you'll use it, or it inspires you to write your own (since River does all the hard stuff) :DRiver: https://codeberg.org/river/riverOther River Window Managers: https://codeberg.org/river/wiki/src/branch/main/pages/wm-lis...

Ask HN: How does a theory of simulated reality not undermine itself?https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=49402696Bostrom’s and other popular arguments for simulation theory seem to rely heavily of the premise “post human civilizations could run vast numbers of ancestor simulations.” and makes probabilistic assertions with that in mind. However, those premises come from our physics and computer science. If the conclusion is true, that physics describes the simulation, not the substrate, so we have no basis for the feasibility claim about the base level nor the basis to distinguish artifacts of a non simulated physical environment from a simulated physical environment. The argument undermines the foundation it builds upon. Bostrom is certainly smarter than I am but I can’t get past this obvious non starter.
