I think the examples by naysayers of what AI can’t do are often cherry-picked. The way has been shown with the web. Now many people who would have been paying a designer are using things similar to Wix. A lot of people don’t need top of the

I mixed up two things I was trying to do. I was writing an async generator and making it so inside the loop it could decide what to do with the delay. That way you could add a half tick if you wanted. :) But here's how I would rewrite

It doesn't just handle the gap but when the first one sends. Suit yourself, though.

Thanks! You can paste this into deno repl and watch the seconds count up :) for (const [s, d] of (function*() { while (true) { const m=new Date().valueOf(), s=Math.ceil((m+10)/1000); yield [s, s*1000-m] } })()) { await new Promise(r =&

hmm, it didn't occur to me to use a timer rather than hit the up arrow and enter. Now I have this to watch the time count up :) async function* seconds() { while (true) { const millis = new Date().valueOf()

I watched in `deno repl` neatly sandboxed :) new Date().valueOf() / 1000 I was counting down by thousands of seconds, rather than millions of milliseconds, which is why I divided instead of using the native js value. Happy 1.7

If you viewed the whole action, like I did, it's clear. I bought a FitBit, took it with me to Latin America (with pics to prove it), and then Google went along and bought FitBit and now they're discontinuing it from Latin American

That's quite a destructive action by Google.

Of course. I was just saying that a lot of the time hashmaps don't get very many entries. There is serialization and deserialization where Cap'n Proto, Flatbuffers, and Protocol Buffers have a savings over JSON by not repeating ke

Why hashmaps? Python has named tuples. Oh - this puts a lot of keys into one hashmap, not a ton of objects with the same keys. :)

The age gap explains a lot of difference for me. I expected it with Douglas Adams. They should make a big deal about it when someone passes at such a young age. (And 70 is also young) However, it was still too much. If Jobs' passing go

Not ironic, maybe inappropriate, especially if his health is rapidly declining. Since I believe, and really want to believe, he's got a lot of good years ahead of him, I'm glad to see people speaking freely.

By calling it "repos", they're trying to capitalize on the popularity of VCS repositories, but these don't have their history implicitly tracked the way Automerge does, just explicitly tracked by committing and pushing.

I thought it must be gojq at first, it's easy to forget about Emscripten when golang- and Rust-based WASM are gaining popularity I looked at aoili briefly. I didn't see how to reproduce the build.

Indeed this is not news to me. However I just learned something. It looks like Colombia and Ecuador give their own name to UTC-5 while Panama lets their use of it be called Eastern Standard Time. https://es.m.wikipedia.org/w

I'm welcome to simply ignore PlanetScale unless I want to learn MySQL or need some performance characteristics that only make a difference in rare cases. Even if it is good enough I don't want to read the MySQL docs. If PlanetScal

Not accurate IMO. It's marketing a feature for giant users like YouTube and GitHub as important for everyone. Neon and sqlite are winning from my perspective. The BlueSky move to thousands of sqlite databases should inspire similar arc

I know that term, but I don't think it's that much more clear. When someone forks the code and makes changes but doesn't contribute it back to the community, them having been allowed to do that is more permissive. However, wh

It's forced for those who can only use it under the license (everyone except Element/Matrix). It isn't forced for the copyright assignee (Element/Matrix). That isn't more open to me.

This reminds me of the thread when 12ft was taken down. Does anyone have any insight into how it would take Vercel hundreds of hours of support time? https://twitter.com/rauchg/status/1718680650067460138

Not to me it doesn't. When the thing is a movement in the software community, the perspective changes the essence of the thing.

I looked through just again and it seems like a nice design, a little complex but powerful :) I might start using it. Edit: played with just and got confused about how it works. Not going to use it just yet.

That's some more indirection, besides putting a disconnected python file in the project directory. I'm not sure whether it's suggested to install it globally, as a development dependency with poetry/similar, or with pipx
