   As a scientist, I'm interested how computer programmers work with data. * They drew beautiful graphs! * They used chatgpt to automate their analysis super-fast! * ChatGPT punched out a reasonably sensible t test! But: * They had variat

   Stop talking to your email server! More seriously, it's called an "address" because people can "address" you with it. There's a natural overlap between at-ing somebody, and putting your name up so that people c

   If it isn't, I've failed. I think you can learn suggestions in 5 minutes. I've been using git for 10 years and still feel like an amateur.

   That's a really interesting point, I'll think about it. There's a tension between "making it clear what the change is" and "making it clear what the old and new versions are". One approach would be somethi

   Hopefully fixed now. CSS is not very newbie-friendly :-(

   I’m considering this for the suggs command line tool. You can already autoaccept or reject all changes.

    There’s an awful lot of confident statements be made about the law here. I wonder if anyone who is actually a lawyer would like to chime in.

    I've tried to get coauthors to move to github and it is a huge blocker. Even just installing git is painful, then they have to learn about add/commit/pull/push. They don't get it.

    Too complex? It’s got to be super easy to use…

    Thanks for all the comments. The software is at https://github.com/hughjonesd/suggestions ; it’s my first rust project and very early stage. Thoughts on the spec are very welcome. I’m considering --[ deleted /&#x2F

    A lot of academics use TeX. I hate TeX, but use rmarkdown a lot. Then there are alternatives like typst.app.

    CriticMarkup seems to emit more correct HTML, but is more demanding (e.g. it recommends against embedded newlines). It doesn't emit TeX. It does have more (i.e. any) editor syntax files. I mildly prefer having the marks outside the bra

    I'll think about that. Some syntax like %%[ % ... would work % for an aside... %%] but I wonder if it is too much effort for most people to arrange. The html formatter prints comments in <aside> blocks, whi

    I think it's fun to think about. Start from the premise that Anselm was serious, and wasn't an idiot. How must he have seen the world for this argument to make sense? (This is, very loosely, the approach of the Cambridge School in

    You shared things and people used them, yes. Now the new approach is… what exactly? Write software aimed at a minority of activists who pass its purity test? Be my guest, but spare me the piety and attitudinising of OP, and don’t be surpris

    If privacy advocates want to persuade people outside their bubble, this is surely not the right attitude. Imagine telling someone who wants iCloud sync, "oh you're hurting your own credibility"? Uh yeah (backing off slowly),

    This was extremely cute! I like the fact that each small puzzle had its own reset point, so you were never overstressed and could just keep retrying.

    Boy am I glad to see American Gods on that list. I started reading it on someone else's recommendation, whom I obviously should not have trusted. I gave up halfway, convinced that Neil Gaiman is a pen name of Garth Marenghi. To anyon

    I would love to see a video of the game, perhaps that would be a good idea for the home page.

    I’d also be interested to know how the tidyverse’s “tibbles” perform here.
