I for one liked the illustrations, just think they were a bit large compared to the text. Maybe fewer would be good, but I liked the Rust-crab theme. The balloon one is a bit busy and I didn't find it to have much explanatory value in

Also maybe losing all scientists to America and half of the country to Russia for 30 years might have contributed here. A cultural aspect may be that Americans are more willing to try and fail, which in software has almost zero cost. In eng

Yes, I recommend this, too, if you're in some American bread desert and short on time. If you have time on the weekends only you can do amazing bread and freeze it. I prepped it on Friday or Saturday evenings, baked it the next morning

I bake my own bread. It's very little work. The problem is the time commitment. You need to be there for a large part of the process. The first mixing and kneading takes the longest, maybe 5 minutes. After that every 20 minutes you nee

I can only recommend flour, water, salt, yeast by Ken Forkish if you want to get amazing results. However there is some amount of time commitment that I think might be hard if you don't have the luxury of working from home or being

Which is true for sugar. It's good if you get a few grams of sugar while running around the forest all day. It's not good to get half a pound of sugar from big gulp softdrinks while you're sitting in traffic.

If you want even tastier bread I'd recommend Ken Forkish - Flour Water Salt Yeast. I started baking bread after moving to Canada because American/Canadian bread is horrific. It was never as good as the bread in Germany or France t

The funny thing to me is that chatGPT frequently spews confident bullshit. That the marketing employee at Google that greenlighted the ad didn't notice is a failure of human, not artificial, intelligence.

Yeah, my impression is that monetizing could be worth it for professional bloggers, but then it would need to be more than a one trick pony like this. I'm also not sure if this is the only effect the app can do.

Elixir also has better ergonomics than Erlang in that regard and uses the same OTP/BEAM mechanics.

Apart from not shipping what you need, you often only get a fraction of the versions you need. For development you may want to test your code against multiple versions of the system libraries. This is not easy using a distro package manager

One of the issues is also that there's usually no good way to search for exact configurations when looking for traded in machines. Meaning that it's harder to convey the value to the end customer.
