   I use disk partitioning to logically separate my files. This helps reduce the sizes of my backups and excludes system files from indexing/searching. For example, WizFile and WizTree are two very useful programs that work best with file

   I switched from Yarn (2) to pnpm last year. Right before I switched, I helped someone with a problem deploying a prisma project to Vercel. Yarn just worked (or maybe it was vanilla npm?), but pnpm needed a crazy work-around. I think the iss

   FP didn't really start to "click" until I found "Functional Core, Imperative Shell"[1] last year (2022). The HN comments from that thread were very helpful, too. I didn't really grok FP until 2022, but I learne

    The Vercel adapter may get some more attention and features first (like ISR[1]), but local development only requires NodeJS. So I think you can self-host SvelteKit anywhere that supports NodeJS. SvelteKit is designed to be serverless-first,

    I like Taskpaper-style tags with values like `@done(2023-05-04)`. Unfortunately the only good Taskpaper client is on Mac: no decent Windows/web/mobile clients. Someday, I'll get my PIM built... it will be a cross between Task

    I think both #1 and #2 have side effects (interactions with external mutable state.) 1. The side effect here is an input, and affects the output value of the function. 2. The side effect here is an output (or "action"). Displaying

    Tip: Safari on iPhone does have a draggable scroll bar. 1. Scroll so the scroll bar shows. 2. Put your finger over the scroll bar. 3. Wait for the scrollbar to get bigger, with haptic feedback. 4. Now you can drag the scroll bar!

    Thanks for sharing your app. - The onboarding experience was quite unintuitive for me. It involved swiping right to continue; swipe was only detected in a few areas of the screen (like the text inputs). It was extremely frustrating to figur

    Thank you! Finally got a definitive answer. It's very hard to find these answers, as "* * *" is not indexed and cannot be used as a query on most search engines. Perhaps a more descriptive, search-able message would be better

    I'd like to add that there is a spectrum between "brute-force" and "precision" marketing. So some people say/think they are doing precision marketing, but they are actually doing "brute-force" marketi

    Oh, that is interesting! I didn't even know non-links could be dragged into the bookmarks bar. How did you even discover this feature? Then on top of that, how did you figure out a comment like that would turn into the name of the book
