That's a really disappointing attitude to see in the wild.

Why would you switch to the moonlander from the Kinesis? The curved design of the kinesis is way better for reducing strain than the flat style of the moonlander/ergodox. If the only factor is programmability, then I think that facto

I think I'm going to copy this site, but actually make it real-time. What I've read about how the creator implemented it seems like it would never actually be able to achieve that. It also seemed like quite an expensive approach a

Kafka's entire design is based upon leveraging spinning disks and the OS's file cache. So the whole "nobody uses spinning hard drives anymore" is very incorrect. In fact, Kafka in some cases can be faster on spinning dis

"There are popular bad libraries out there that people base their software on." "I use good libraries" Not really relevant.

It was a good nitpick since I read the first sentence and was really confused what the person was on about.

Why live for years in the forest and write a book to be released afterwards when you can just show off how minimal you are in realtime? Thoreau would've just micro-blogged all of his thoughts on Twitter probably.

Everyone I've talked to (including myself) who have to translate between Japanese and English do the same process. Let the machine give you a baseline, then clean it up where it has it makes mistakes/has a weird tone. Though Deepl

A US citizen not living in the US still has to consider US taxes for income not generated in the US. US expats have a worse system to deal with if they don't intent to be US permanent citizens anymore than with most countries. So your

Calling it cultural doesn't make sense to me, considering every difference you pointed out was based on the language's support for macros. C macros are a text generation hack from 40 years ago, lisp macros are a first class citize

Unless you're fluent in reading and speaking Japanese, don't move here. It's a nightmare. Pick a country where you know the language. And consider renouncing your citizenship to avoid taxes if you have the prospect of attaini

That would explain the abundance of available mini-models that they could machine. That does take the wind out of the sails of the argument that it could've had a broader focus than just the differential engine. In that case I'll

I remember playing with a differential engine in those Lego gear sets many many years ago. When you have a bunch of the pieces lying around and free time, you'll probably accidentally make a differential too. As for this video itself,

I agree with this, and setting it up with Fastmail was so easy, I set up two more domains just for fun. Same goes for adding import from Gmail/Softbank/Apple/anywhere. It's like a 1 minute procedure to import an account,

What I always wonder with selling physical goods is how the process of getting production lines going went. There have been times when I've wanted to sell a physical product, but the lack of experience in that area and relative risk (f

The server is up and running if you want to try it yourself. I personally launch it with `nvim +"lua require'typeracer'.join_random()"` or `nvim +"lua require'typeracer'.create()"` mostly. I live code

It's not going to be static compilation or give any sort of speedup. That's just a bundling command basically.

Did you consider that I had done that and it didn't help? Your suggestion wouldn't have helped anyway, so your only intention was to attempt to ridicule me. I don't think that's a particularly good goal to set with makin

I don't understand the use of the word creative in this context as a noun.

With opengl, libuv, and libcurl, and Dear Imgui, I can write a C program resulting in a binary that's about 400kB unstripped, to put 5MB in perspective. And for a simple program like what you wrote, I don't even bother trying to f

Depending on the size of your files, burn a burn of duplicate DVDs or BDs. They have the longest lifetime in cold storage tradeoff vs equipment/money investment. Period. Store those disks in a fireproof bag or box and they're pret

You should probably create an index on the tables first and save the result into a temporary table.

I wouldn't call it amazing, but it is fine. It's bloated on the frontend side of things, imo.

I have a JSON viewer/editor/formatter/validator in the form of Neovim, and it's been difficult to find one that can offer features that it can't. I use a terminal viewer which has been fairly ok in limited use-cases

As part of the neovim team and the author of the built in LSP for Neovim, I'd say that 0.5 is where things will really diverge. One of those factors is the built-in LSP support, but the others are the ramping up of Lua plugins being
