AFAIK you can just use ! alone if you're feeling "ducky". Saves a few clicks, although it's not as cute.

Genuine question: What’s the benefit? And how would you solve the vote-by-mailproblems the US has now because of this?

Thanks! Another idea I was entertaining was teaching them Lisp (Racket?), Haskell and Prolog, just long enough for them to get a feel for other programming paradigms and ways of thinking. However, I settled for the project, eventually. Anyw

I’d call this a “rational” diet; unfortunately, most of the diet plans I find on reputable sources are for “constrained” people (vegans, vegetarians, or people that are allergic to something). Being unconstrained, I’d assume I’d have an eas

I’m not using Julia actively, but I’ve been following the news and I there was a lot of improvements made to the VS Code extension, and better debugging experience as one of them. You should try it out again.

Which books would you recommend to solve the first problem? I’m a CS student, but would love to work with data one day, so I’m looking for some probability/statistics/data science books to read through. I’ve heard great things abo

That's an interesting viewpoint, and I'd love to be able to "do what you want and enjoy doing, when you feel like doing it" rather than use biological tricks to push myself to do something. Could you maybe elaborate a bi

Who _are_ you? Now, don't take this personally; there's just not many people that I know that could out-smart plain old dishwashing on such a fundamental philosophical level. I'd love to know what's your background and h

Thank you very much for the detailed description of the process behind design; I appreciate that you put it in concrete terms and actionable steps. I'm specifically building an internal tool for service-requesting, thus the users will

Thanks for the links! Do you happen to have any resources specific to web-design as well? I was recently given the task to program a frontend and the design-part proved to be the most complicated one. The more the better; not only geneal gu

Not sure why you are getting downvoted — I didn't know about this lack of sources and took all of the information about the region for granted. Thanks for reminding me that even things that sound plausible (or especially those things)

No worries, I'm carefully weighting each purchase, especially when it's one third of my monthly budget (greetings from Europe!). It seems to me that it's considered a classic, although I've never heard of it (probably du

Thanks for the comprehensive reply! I also think that "self experimentation" (basically scientific studies with n=1) + comprehensive data collection could work. It does for science, after all. But as you said, we'll have to c

I guess it depends on how you both define left wing. From the economic perspective, maybe not (except medical care for all, maybe); from the human-rights perspective (e.g. gender rights, race-related policies), the more popular subs are sur

I, for one, enjoyed your little foray into the field of statistics. So much so, that I'd love to learn some of this stuff as well! I'm a bioinformatics student, so I have a rigorous math background (analysis, linear algebra), but

I LOVE the first talk, I think I discovered it on HN. I study bioinformatics and had no idea something like that existed.

It surely is easy to procrastinate by inventing more and more complicated systems, but I don’t think the (base) Zettelkasten is an example of such procrastination. > active note taking, e.g. while watching a lecture, is a crucial part of

I’m curious what do you use block transclusion for? When I used Roam, I did occasionally have a need to link to only a small part of some note, but that happened so rarely that I happily traded that in for the Obsidian-specific features (md

by Eugeleo 6y ago
Just a quick notw, I think everythink (need to archive content, ease of migrating data etc) is solved simply by Obsidian being offline-first and markdown-only. I.e. you don’t need the app to be open-source in the end.

I think Andy Matuschak has some utility that automatically inserts the “Pages linking to here” into a mardkown document. Not sure if it could be used for Bear, but you might check it out.
