> At the same time, I am also dismayed at the block a lot of people have at any phenomena that doesn't seem to be physically-based. For me it's a matter of the scientific method — if it doesn't hold up to appropriate scrut

The Web pages of college and health care providers are usually limited by the back-end in my experience, but modern Web apps can be the worst of both worlds — ClickUp, for example, is both very slow to load and sluggish once loaded. I'

To add to [1]: if .io can teach us anything, it's not to build on top of ccTLDs. I'd even call into question whether Google's new global TLDs are in the same class as a .net or .com.

This is cool for sure, but I fail to see the audience. Microblogging may work well enough, but for anything more substantial you will likely still need to make edits within their app down the line — even immediately after posting when your

Trying to get Eduroam working soured me on NixOS as a desktop/laptop OS. If conventional methods fail, you're left with a completely non-standard OS designed to prevent quick hacks. But NixOS spoiled my entire mindset around Linux

I get what you're saying, but syntax is the least of my concerns. With a modern IDE, or even just a decent language server, I run into syntax error very, very rarely. Everything else is the hard part.

What is the use-case for this feature? I get specifying byte ranges for parsing headers and whatnot, but I don't know a curl workflow that benefits from this.

The situation at large is even worse if you consider how Discord moved a significant portion of discussion away from the indexable Web. I thought of mailing lists as archaic, but maybe we just regressed from there.

That sounds like one such folklore-esque belief. At least, it's something you tend to hear before a project is taken down.

I'm not sure how these services work, but are you planning to offer hard covers as well for a "next print"? I've had my eye on Crafting Interpreters for a bit now, and I don't mind paying extra for a nicer version —

This issue aside, thanks for doing what you do. I was kind of expecting Itch to get sold to some holdings or casino company at some point, as good things tend to go, but I've been happily surprised to see it mature independently throug

I wish desktop OSes had evolved with such a model in mind. There is no reason why a calculator should be capable of reading my downloads folder — in fact, I'd even prefer it if I had to give explicit permission to access my network, I

That looks great! I moved from Fish and NuShell to Zsh because of its reasonable compatibility with bash, so OSH seems right up my alley.

I really like the styling of this blog. It's nice on the eyes, gets out of the way, and the collapsed containers for extra info is a nice touch. There's a bit of layout shift though, but that's about it.

Interestingly, this prompt breaks o1-mini and o1-preview for me, while 4o works as expected — they immediately jump from "thinking" to "finished thinking" without outputting anything (including thinking steps). Maybe it

I can think of many reasons to stop posting on X, but leaving right when a new president takes office strikes me as odd. If it's about Musk unfairly promoting Trump, why wait? It's already happened after all, even if Musk himself

I've been meaning to give something APL-ish a shot, but I don't see how such languages can be justified in a non-academic engineering environment. I doubt any company would like to limit themselves to hiring programmers who are ca

It's just called "markdown". I used it to make this template a few years ago: https://gist.github.com/te-lang-wakker/b401bcf7f05658c624fab... Only problem was that hyperlinks are converted into footnotes

Remark.ing sounds incredible. I've been considering building something like Memos but based on Markdown files rather than a relational database for personal use, but this comes really close to what I was looking for. Are you planning t

I love Typst, but I've found its typesetting not quite on par with LaTeX last time I checked. Not sure why you wouldn't just convert your Markdown to LaTeX if you're not writing source code yourself anyhow. There's even

[3] is really interesting. I'm not surprised, but it really feels like history is happening when even the mundane starts to reflect it.

That's simultaneously really cool and horrifying.

That seems inappropriate to me for a README — at least in its current, somewhat inflammatory, form. Is the commit itself an act of protest or is this a genuine attempt at getting it pulled?

This is neat, but I'd rather just pick my platform from a list of binaries. Those who don't know what they're running probably aren't spoofing their user agent either, so you can just* serve them the correct option with

This reads like a thought experiment, but its sincerity makes me uncomfortable in the way good art does. Thanks for sharing.
