Re your first and fifth points, how do the preliminary and final notes look like? Do you aim for 100% information coverage (or 95%), or do you only write down your aha! moments and have the textbook as the primary source of information?

Thanks for the reply! Yeah, I was implying that I'll miss custom tags, so I'm glad to hear they are planned! I was planning to do something similar myself (note-taking/blog-making system with good defaults and customization i

Seems like a good idea, however I think it takes Markdown only a step in the right direction, without going the full way — allowing the user to specify custom "tags" and allow for custom styling of those tags (with html/css o

Oh, hey! I worked with you on a Racket VSCode project a while ago and wondered why you suddenly stopped responding. The GitHub ban might've been the culprit there. Glad to see you working on another interesting project!

I think it wasn’t the OP’s point to question the design process behind Python — he was mostly just reacting to the commenter above who claimed that: > Python is a very powerful dynamic language. It lets you code with any paradigm that su

I started keeping a journal a few months ago and it helped me to keep it simple, quick and as painless and fun as possible. I've been heavily inspired by technique called minimalist journaling [1] which is something I read about somewh

On the 16th there were big protests again, as lots of people are generally unhappy with the state of affairs here in Czechia. Even Czechs no longer living here joined the protests in 63 cities around the world. CNN did a nice short article

I have heard about Racket’s metaprogramming capabilities multiple times (and even played with it myself), but I still don’t know how can one use DSLs to solve problems. Could you provide some examples of how exactly does building DSLs come

This is mostly tangential, but the (I pressume) owner of the site, Eliezer Yudkowski, is the author of Harry Potter and the Methods of Rationality, which is a great book about rationality, cognitive biases and the scientific method as appli

Well... Julia. Of course, the tidyverse is big and I guess there isn’t one to one ration of features between tidyverse and Julia, but mostly it is true. For example, in Julia you can work with the dataframes in a SQL/LINQ/dplyr fa

Ok, thanks, I’ll be on the lookout for that one. I have some basic linear algebra and analysis under my belt, not too much probability nor measure theory, though. I hoped there might be some way to introduce the concepts in an intuitive man

I've had an unhealthy fixation on my opinions/ideas, which usually resulted in me being overly emotional when they were attacked or disproven. I found out this has been a great source of frustration for me, and for the people arou

Sure. It helps if you can formulate the pros and cons of each course of action, though, because that's the first step of finding a proper compromise. From my experience, that is what debate teaches you. For example, most of the debates

Thanks! I heard about advanced R, but as the author is also the author of the tidyverse packages, I feared he might be inclined to use them in the examples etc. I'm glad to hear it's more generally oriented book.

Hey, author here! The extension is only a syntax highlighting one atm (albeit a pretty good one, I hope), but I have bigger plans for it. The problem is, the development of Racket LSP has slowed a lot as of late, and I'm not skilled en

I'd like to do my notes in markdown, but as a maths/cs student there's a lot of structure in the data (proofs, lemmas, intermezzos, sidenotes) that would be lost should I go down (eheh) the markdown route. I've been usin
