It’s really cool that you did this. It’s like a personal exercise to develop a particular aspect of yourself, in this case ‘focus’. Did you know there is a similar challenge between comic-book creators called the ‘24h-comic challenge’? The

I’ve followed Crystal with interest for years, and I’m surprised it has not gained more traction over time. It’s a cool ptoject!

There is a very good wargame by Multi-Man Publishing about the Yom Kippur war, ‘Yom Kippur: The Battle for the Sinai, October, 1973’ (1995). It’s part of their ‘Standard Combat Series’ which is a series of wargames sharing a similar core ga

You divide the cards stack in two and put the top part at the bottom of the other part (which was the bottom part and will be now the top). The relative order of the cards is maintained: you don’t shuffle them. But if you cut them in this w

I’d like a terminal email client inspired by vim’s usual keys and behaviour. I didn’t particularly like mutt’s default keys.

On this topic, there is still a community of players and creators around adventure games (or 'interactive fiction'). Check ifdb.org for reviews and recommendations. I'd say modern IF games are often more playable than classic

Code reviews are great, they prevent silos. It gives other teammates the chance of looking at your code, and understand what it does. It’s a knowledge-spreading tool, apart from their bug-catching aspect.

I worked as a contractor some time ago in a project that, I did not know it, but was managed by contractors from McKinsey. It was an awful experience and I left as soon as I could. They gave me the worst of impressions. A mixture of arrogan

Logicomix is a comic book drawn in that style about the search for the foundations of mathematics. Recommended! I have the impression that lots of HN readers would like it. https://www.logicomix.com/en/index.html
