If only there were jobs in Elixir, god I switched in an instance. Sadly here in Belgium there is not a single company looking for a senior Elixir dev :(. I love that language...

My dad had a full collection of minidics and our car had a mini discs player. I remember my dad telling me it was a superior technology but sadly wouldn't get any traction. I never had a minidics player, I had cd's and after that

Exactly this! I have no clue what it means and googeling for its gives me "live editor". To me a notebook (in terms of computers) is a small laptop. HN enlighten us!

As a developer with dyslexia I hope this never becomes popular as I would be out of a job. Kuddos to the author looks cool but personally I wouldn't be able to make a single thing work.

Don't forget that this is just a social construct. Without anything tangeable (physical) we just have to agree that a NFT is unique / original. Compare it with paper notes, they are worthless but sociaty gives it value. If we all

In 2 years we all frown on main and think how stupid it was and we change it to default /sarcasm?

- Years of muscle memory - git itself uses master - a lot of tooling / commands expect master do they now need to be aware of main vs master - I understand the need for some to allow to change the default but just changing it for ever

Replacing the word master in ctrl-r fashion. Master as a word has a far more deeper history than just master-slave

Unpopular opinion: Sticking with master as this is being political correctness taking way to far. Are we also going to rename master-bedrooms? [1] At least keep the default master and let people customise it however they want. [1] https:&#

I think thats because they don't know anything more atm. CenturyLink didn't do a postmortem yet so they can only guess and see what happend. What they suggest all seems possible, but it will be guesswork until CenturyLink explains

It's one of the reasons I bought a Kobo e-reader is because they had support for a Dyslexia font (not sure which one it is but looks similar). For me that font helped me in both reading speed and correctness. I can now enjoy any book w

How does this compare to the sorbet project? Is it two different implementations for the same goal or is it adding support in ruby so sorbet can also benefit?

We used it for a b2b backend system with a lot of configurable knobs that change data entry drastically. It meant that we had almost no possibility in caching anything so we saw a good fit in Graphql. Especially when 3th parties need an API

Cool magic trick but I fail to see anything useful coming out of it. I would not blindly rewrite code, rather see how it can be improved and maybe dig a bit in the existing functionality, clean it out, use the new language in my advantage..

Elixir is the only language that really blew my mind in its capabilities while still using a readable and fairly easy syntax. Everything is just thinking in terms of message passing between lightweight processes

I use a paper A5 atom notebook. You can easily rip out pages and rearrange them. I mostly use it for quick todos, db relation schemas and writing down some logic. I do take some notes with Apples Notes but I periodically clean them out. I d

Ha the beauty of calling defrag.exe and hoping your pc would run faster after it. So relaxing to see blue block move around (with the occasional horror of a red block indicating an error)
