Why just that one? The thing is the vast (vast, vast) majority of blogs are all about profit maximization. I view reading any of this rubbish as simply advertainment and refrain from it. At least they're honest about it. Hell the New

Can't you just do that outside of Spotify? It would be nicer if you could in app, but with pavucontrol I have Spotify send music where it belongs.

I constantly come back to some of the incredibly high quality documentation I see in places like Plaid, as my examples. Provide API docs, with examples, bonus if you can provide multi-language samples. Doing so saves me tremendous amounts o

Yes, this is easily splitting Talmudic hairs. In English lovingkindness is really loving-kindness, a form of kindness that is done from the place of love. But lovingkindness is the notion that love and kindness have equal weight.

Of course - you cannot bury yourself. But, I'd argue that it's not the kindness translation of חסר but lovingkindness, more ברסלבish

Since when has ZAKA not trained with, and trained search and rescue? After basic, and initials there's are courses with ZAKA. ZAKA wasn't the provider of service, just of training.

It's more than that. Part of it is army training, but a giant part of it is organizations like ZAKA ( https://zakaworld.org/ ) whose mission comes from our core religious beliefs. As Jews, we're ideally buried fully

It's funny - the reality is that it depends on the organization. It's not lost on me that everyone wants to hear about your side projects from a technical and general interest perspective. It serves many companies as a reasonable

If only the same freedom existed across all platforms. Like say HN. I do find it frustrating that the same freedom isn't accorded to you here.

Right - whereas I find this the most exciting series of things I get to do, by far. It's always a game of hunt the wocket - especially when you're trying to not just hack a solution together.

Unfortunately we ended up giving in and using multiple GitHub organizations. There doesn't seem to be a better answer like repository tagging or labeling. It's not ideal, and has definitely resulted in lost issues, duplicated eff

Colour me paranoid.. but I think I'm a realist. From China's point of view, the creation (and concentration) of (large amounts) of wealth in the hands of individuals, leads to the concentration of power. That power in turn, become

I find questions like this fascinating. As a religious person, I guess I don't really see the question. There's no way for me to (currently) prove or disprove the existence of a deity. Ultimately I make a faith-based decision base
