One normal 16TB drive + two external 14TB backup drives which are being used in alternating order. I would consider it the minimal defense against certain technical malfunctions. I should add another offline copy at some relatives, to prote

Thanks, I created a Patreon account just to support him :-) For anyone who is still hesitant: Just do it, it feels so good to put your money where you mouth is ;-)

> What I find particularly remarkable is how... ...Bartosz always manages to over-deliver despite very high expectations. Amazing! Maybe we should give him an impossible task, like explaining different types of neural networks ;-)

Todo lists are tools, like a hammer. Hammers can be used to end life, but also to build houses. The tool is rarely good or bad in itself, but either suitable or unsuitable to do a certain job. In my experience, todo lists are suitable for k

I am very happy with my Eneloops. I used Ansmanns before (and still use the Ansmann recharge device), but they died after like 20 cycles (note: those Ansmanns were models from before the low-self-discharge era). The Eneloops are 3 years old

Does someone know, why Websockets are sometimes considered a security risk and blocked by corporate firewalls, even when the rest of the website is considered to be trustworthy?

I agree. While there are many things to admire about Smalltalk (e.g. clean syntax, real Object Orientation, feeling of a high-level language), the image idea is certainly the least favorite of mine. The idea of a bundled IDE is also somethi

I think the whole problem with systemd wasn't just about technology. The results were spectacular. Before systemd normal Linux boot times were well over a minute. After switching you could get below 10 seconds on the same hardware. And

Actually, it is just a word to describe the property that if you do something repeatedly, it leads to the same result as doing it just once. So the latter executions don't change anything. And because it is such a common property when

I don't think there is so much of difference between labeling and understanding things. I mean, we humans don't even understand ourselves and yet we tend to use our intelligence as the general measure of intelligence. But if label

I am not a physicist, but I am wondering if light is a good example to explain a spectrum. My primary concern is, that light indeed has a primary order (wave length) and composition of wave lengths isn't being talked about here. While

I think comments should be used much less than we have propagated for years. First, idiomatic code often doesn't need any comments at all. Second, every project requires some level of documentation, but the documentation should be a hi

Yes, TiddlyWiki is great, but isn't it full of JS? I mean, the somewhat special thing here, is that the page is built without JS.

by arendtio 5y ago
Well, there is an audience which likes to avoid websites with JS. I think their biggest motivation is tracking and bloat. So having a technique for a user experience without load times (after the initial load) without JS is what makes this

Thanks for the extensive reply. I also had some good experience with Go so far, so I can understand how you came to that point ;-)

I am alternating between WOW and wtf. Pretty cool stuff. I just wonder how on earth you want to be able to support all the binary formats out there. I mean, jq supports json, not all structured text data, like json, xml, csv, ini, ...

I think it depends on the use case and the organization/ordering of the boxes, which is not the focus of this library. So for example, if the user is responsible for organizing the boxes and there is also a way to create custom arrows,

Is 'buy' the correct verb in this context? I mean, if you would buy it in the traditional sense you wouldn't have any monthly payments you could miss and you would actually own the car. But this case seems a bit different.

The headline of the post misses the point. The problem the author describes, revolves around active vs. passive learning and the '3x Speed' part is just part of what he refers to as passive learning. I completely agree, that passi
