Very nice! As someone who wrote a native tool to do pretty much this (Recut / getrecut.com) it's super impressive to see it done in a web browser. The editor feels very fast and fluid. Doing it natively was hard enough, and recent

Oh hey, I made that! Glad to hear you’re getting good use out of it :) It’s Mac-only right now but I’m currently working on a Windows version. I’m a big fan of one-time licenses and the Sketch-style “1 year of updates but use it forever if

I’ve used flash cards with Anki in the past for memorizing the IPA symbols, Swedish words, and a few other things. It worked pretty well. What I’ve realized recently while learning Rust (no Anki involved) is that, for me at least, new infor

That sucks, sorry. People really have no shame. I've had it happen to me too, one guy cloned my whole site a while back :/

This feels very relatable to me. Looking back, I'm pretty sure a few large projects spawned out of procrastinating on some other project I was supposed to be doing. One was installing a tile floor in the kitchen, including lots of re

I wonder if this is actually true. Or maybe if it was, I wonder if the tide is changing. It seems there's more and more "subscription fatigue" these days (parent's reply is a good example). I sell a one-time-purchase Mac

Interesting, I think I just dealt with this problem! I'd heard of the push/pull distinction but had interpreted it as "pull = drive the video based on the audio" and "push = some other way?". I think I saw &quo

Good overview of all the parts involved! I was hoping they’d talk a little more about the timing aspects, and keeping audio and video in sync during playback. What I’ve learned from working on a video editor is that “keeping a/v in syn

I'd say my goal is not so much about avoiding math but more about learning intuition-first rather than equations-first. Top-down vs. bottom-up, maybe. Most of material that I've encountered about math-heavy stuff tends to do the

I’ve wanted to learn more about DSP for a while and recently started working through The Scientist and Engineer’s Guide to DSP [0] and it’s been fantastic. It’s much heavier on explanations and lighter on math equations than other books or

Yep, I've just got the CS degree too, and same here re: EE stuff. I always thought it'd be fun to get into electronics but I couldn't get very far with it. I like that the author takes time to actually explain the concepts wi

Hah, maybe! I haven't gotten to that point yet. There are definitely some things that seem dated.

I haven’t finished this yet (only at the start of chapter 6) but The Scientist and Engineer’s Guide to Digital Signal Processing [0] has been excellent so far. DSP is one of the subjects I’ve wanted to learn for years but could never get my

The other day, an HN post showed RadioShack.com has changed hands and the home page is all about a new type of crypto. Just checked, still is. I’m surprised that RadioShack link still works, including the Add to Cart and Checkout buttons! M

This is one of those weird little details that pretty much doesn't matter, because you just try both, and you do that every time, and it's fine. Maybe knowing the difference saves you 15 seconds. I had an aha moment a little while

Cool to see this here! I've been following your journey on the Software Social podcast [0] and it's awesome to watch the project progress. I also really enjoy that the podcast is not all sunshine and rainbows, like you actually ta

I’ve been using Mark Lauren’s material for a few years. He has a few books with exercises and progressions - You Are Your Own Gym, Strong and Lean, Body by You. There’s also a subscription video service which I’ve gotten a ton of value out

In regards to `-p` -- Lazygit does this. You can press Spacebar to stage individual lines and then partially commit or stash the staged stuff. I like it better than git's built-in `-p` because you don't have to rely on git chunkin

I looked into it at one point and it sounded like WASM isn't as fast as native (yet?), and the main benefit would be the ability to run in a browser. That'd be useful for making a web version and I might look into it again, but fo

Tauri seems like a nice option. It's not as full-featured as Electron yet but their focus on security is great to see (last I saw they were getting the codebase professionally audited). The main reason I didn't go with it was just

Thanks, and yes! "Choose Boring Technology", love this: http://boringtechnology.club/ The idea of spending fewer "innovation tokens" was definitely on my mind when I was thinking through this.

Being very conscious of those downsides, I'm putting in extra effort to make sure it's fast. So far it seems to be working! It uses less CPU than any other Electron-based video apps I've seen (and even less than a few Qt-base

Yeah, I really like Svelte for this. I did a whole blog post this way, with little embedded animations to show various operations on linked lists. Each of the animations is a Svelte component, but the surrounding page is just a static HTML

Weeks to months, hopefully by the end of the year? We’ll see! A lot depends on what other challenges come up, heh.
