   I wanted to learn about state machines so I searched for reading material here in hackernews. Found out about statecharts and used it immediately to rewrite a frontend app. What a fantastic development experience. It feels like I finally gr

   Interesting, any reason why you chose this over recaptcha?

   On one hand I'm scared that I don't understand how AI tech works on a fundamental level. I have not integrated AI in my workflow yet (copilot, et al.) nor have I explored the wonders of ChatGPT/GPT-4 which comes up pretty fre

   Admittedly I only use the gmail web client for viewing email and not much else, but I have never had issues with gmail on firefox. What problems are you experiencing?

   That sounds questionable. I'll put this to the test as soon as the next GOG sale.

   On my linux machine, dns queries would sometimes last 5 seconds with ipv6 enabled. It made my internet surfing experience extremely frustrating. Disabling ipv6 resolved this issue. Don't really understand networks yet, but I guess it w

   One other notable application is gud (realgud?), although for some reason I'm having a hard time getting used to it. Must be my vim bindings.

   I don't get it either. One would think that corporations would cut unnecessary costs by not sending paper bills at the advent of electronic communication. Is there a legal obligation to keep sending them, I wonder.

    Interesting story. Thanks for sharing. Not trying to blame anyone here. Did no one guide him? Just by virtue of him being a young student, surely his unproductive proclivities were easily correctable? Was he averse to mentoring?

    When I read anything about the OSI model it always reminds me of this article https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=26607983 > I have said before that I believe that teaching modern students the OSI model as an approach t

    This was me as well. For a long time I put off writing my blog because I wanted to write something impactful/meaningful/substantial. However, I came across one blog which had numerous entries, starting from when the author was in

    Are there any SimCity-like games you would recommend? Or any comments on Cities: Skylines perhaps?

    I was confused as well. I looked it up and apparently it's a reference to The Last Starfighter movie.

    Is there any reason, technical or otherwise, for separating username and password to two pages? Gmail does this and it's a bit frustrating not being able to use my password manager effortlessly.

    Putting aside the morality of it, I wish we could study a case where twins are raised differently: 1. one where youtube (or any form of media under the sun) is part of daily life, 2. and another where youtube (and any alternative image&#x2F

    That's a lot of podcasts. You must have one hell of a commute. But seriously, how do you find time to listen to all of these?

    I remember for the first two weeks (maybe a month? it was so long ago) learning vim was painful as hell. I had to fight the urge to just stick with non-vim mode typing like in default vscode. Despite that I willed myself to continue using v

    I guess it depends. I am alone and almost never say anything, but I'm almost always wearing only underpants 23/7. Perhaps for other people, home conversations are more sensitive and they dress sensibly inside the house.

    Please correct me if I'm wrong, but your comment seems to imply that the US directly intervened/prevented the Japanese from making their own operating system. Curious, I read the wiki page and if I'm reading it correctly, at
