   I extracted the TempleOS font (which itself was mostly ripped from FreeDOS apparently) and used it for all the text in my browser with a CSS override addon a few years ago: https://github.com/rendello/templeos_font

   I wonder what percentage of Rust users have significant experience with C. The difficulty curve of Rust was too high for me when I was coming from Python, but after doing HolyC and Zig, I find it fairly straightforward to conceptualize, tho

   I'm curious to know the difference in approach where it's is effective, and where it's not. I've heard nothing but good from HF with regards to places like Finland, but this CBC report from Ottawa is grim: https:/&

   I saw that! I just got to Fundamentals II today, after seeing what was in the diagnostics test, I'm really excited to keep going.

   I saw that and thought it was a shame the line would take 15+ years, then I remembered what year it's about to be.

    Thanks for the response. I've enjoying it and learning a lot. My base in math is a lot weaker though, so it's taken me quite a long time to get through even Fundementals I. I'm almost there. I went into more detail in another

    Did you start at that level or did you work up to it? I'm about to finish Fundamentals I and I'm curious what other people have to say about the site.

    I download this game every couple of years and replay it, it's a lot of fun. It looks like it was made as part of a university course in 2009. Another small game that drops you in with no context in Knossu: https://jonathanw

    I like syntax highlighting and basic automatic indenting, but not much beyond that. I can't stand autocomplete if there's an automatic popup. I tried some LSP stuff and it was quite nice but I couldn't turn off some features

    I think a lot of it comes down to what the forum incentivizes. Hacker News is anonymous, but people tend to be quite nice, the worst thing I see here is people being pretentious or know-it-alls, but nothing like the absolute vitriol you see

    I found "The Two-Hour Cocktail Party" on Hacker News, and the advice really resonated with me although I haven't had the opportunity to host yet. The author suggests doing a few of these cocktail parties before a dinner party

    I like the idea of the automatic format, I've been to a lot of tech meetups with bad formats, or bad speakers that way overrun their time.

    Drawabox is based on doing exercises to improve your mark making (the accuracy of the marks you draw on the page) and eventually leads to you drawing hundreds of boxes in perspective as a consistent exercise. A lot of people swear by it. I
