Yeah... I don't think the original post is the best. This blog post doesn't add much context. Maybe the URL should just be updated to the github document the blog post links? [0] [0] https://github.com/RupertBenWis

Yeah, I don't understand why they focus so much on this. I guess there's a market in true "font nerds" but most of us aren't going to fixate over these small decision points. That said, you really can just install t

I worked this way for ages, but over time I came to appreciate some modern IDE-like conveniences like linters (I use ALE for this stuff). Especially thanks to LSP (which neovim supports natively, though I stick to upstream Vim myself) you c

I find the same. Vim has some core concepts that are unique and (for those of us who adopt them) very sticky. My entire career has been spent trying out IDEs every few years in hope of switching, dating back to Eclipse. I always try their v

And to your point, it was useful to paint the revolution as being some high minded, noble affair, rather than realpolitik wherein they recognized an opportunity to seize power from a weakening crown that tried to overplay its hand. History,

It's bizarre to me too. I think there must be some seriously big holders doing wash trading to prop things up on paper. Anecdotally, all of the normies I know of who were really "into crypto" during the pandemic are coming ar

Not OP but I'm a similar age and never had a cavity either. I grew up in a rural area and drank well water as a kid. They did occasionally provide topical flouride in the schools. I stopped going to dentists in my mid 20s. Routine clea

I think this is really what we're seeing now. One can suggest that recent decisions were "blunders" due to the problems they have encountered, but maybe there just was no path forward for them simply because there's no

Indeed, you can't simply pretend that there's no value in these platforms for end users. As awful as reddit may be, it has many users and a lot of valuable information. I don't think that things like this client (or e.g. nitt

Yeah, and I immediately realized Nitter was back when I saw 100+ unread tweets in my RSS feed. I just marked them all as read and moved on. I guess this Nitter outage may be the thing that finally pushes me to find the people I follow on ot

There's a fine line between being a parody of a style and just being bad. I'm not certain where this one falls, but it's not really working for me either. Perhaps a subset of HN is just excited to take the "rationalist&q

I'm curious as to why you use this standalone tool versus a full fledged test suite. It seems like a browser based approach (like Selenium) would be far more powerful and overall useful in a testing context.

I use the Aeropress all the time and I've had this thought before as well. You can perhaps mitigate the risk by making sure to brew at the "right" temperature (like 185F, not boiling). It is also possible to do cold brew in t
