Totally agree with this. A guy from a band I'm into (The Disco Biscuits) just started making band-themed NFTs and he's doing private events and stuff for the owners. The band also released a free limited one (I think 420 units, be

I worked through the first four chapters of The Little Schemer in Hy a bunch of years ago: https://github.com/andybp85/hyLittleSchemer I moved on to Racket shortly after (which I sadly don't use nearly as much as

I'm reading this now and while I already understood a lot of what he's talking about, the rest of what he's saying is the only complete, serious, logical take on human drug use I've ever read. Highly, highly recommend th

My company's going to be going with a hybrid model, which is exactly what I want. I hate purely working from home, but I definitely would pretty much every Monday and Friday.

I've been saying this exact thing about the copy and paste shortcuts for years. If I had a dollar for every time I copied the thing I was trying to paste over, I could afford to crusade against this injustice.

you have to use `npm ci`, which was added a few years ago. my team ran into that kind of issue right after `ci` was added, thankfully, or we would've had to do something similar. i now have this aliased to `ni`, so i get to say `ni` to

Aaaannd it's down. I can't wait until this comes back up so I can send it to a bunch of my ex-bandmates lol.

That's how I felt when I was learning to compile stuff from source.

Or, how to get your app rate limited in one easy step lol. Patiently waiting... The concept of "objectively good music" is hilarious enough that this is already a win in my book.

I never thought I'd be a programmer. I actually took HTML in grade school (late 90s) and C++ in high school, but they didn't stick. (Of course now I wish they did!) I originally went to school for TV production, which I had worked

I stumbled across J years ago when I was messing with Supercollider[0]. I wish I had a use for J, it's very cool. Slight tangent, Supercollier is one of the best langs I've ever played with. Smalltalk + J. Totally blew my mind whe

Depends on the venue; I've played things like coffee shops that required us and the people putting the show on to bring everything inc. drums and a PA system. That's also specific to musicians, like I said there's a bunch of

I did read that before I posted that comment, and the explanation isn't what I got from it. Things like productions (catering services come to mind too) fall into a very different category than emergency or humanitarian services. I cou

Autonomous delivery vehicles in a pedestrian-filled area sounds like sci-fi given the current state of technology. The amount of gear required for even a small production can be significant. I also do sound for a wedding DJ, and the rig tha

This sounds like it would suck big time for musicians and the like who have to transport gear to bars and whatnot, which I've done plenty of times since high school (I live just outside the city in NJ). Having to carry all my gear like

I borderline take offense to this lol. I first got interested in computers and eventually programming by playing with custom ROMs for my Windows Mobile phone when I was in college, circa 2006. If it wasn't for smartphones, I never woul
