Tiddlywiki is a lot (exactly?) like this.

This was also my exact reaction when I first came across a couple months ago. I promptly forgot about it until now, because I can't save it in my feed reader...

Definitely - searching for bespoke shoes yields quite a fair number. Before the reddit blackout, /r/goodyearwelt was the place to discuss fine men's footwear across the price spectrum. They tend to be dress shoes or workboots

I made a uniform of my own - same set of black tshirts, black jeans, one or two slightly different pairs of shoes. It was great for a bit! I felt more well dressed, I was always comfortable, and it was incredibly functional. Now I realize I

Everyone says "users need to pay" but there's a second alternative that is, imo, much better: technical folk run servers for their friends and families. This is how the fediverse works, and it's _vastly_ better than any

My guess is that OP did indeed mean "knocking boots" as a reference to Operation Paperclip, where the US government granted amnesty to a bunch of Nazi scientists in return for pivoting their research to US national security purpos

Yeah, I'm also surprised that folks here seem so pessimistic about building a community that supports each other. It's not a political stance, to help your neighbor. Maybe "the library" concept reeks too much of socialis

Tool lending libraries exist and function perfectly well - there are 3 or 4 in my city (the nearest is a... oh wait, 15 minute walk from my house.) They have tool maintenance and repair nights every month - I've attended and it's

I've had a $100 Weller and a $25 Yihua soldering station and found them pretty comparable to each-other. What's most important is that you get an electronics soldering _station_ of some type and not a basic plumbing/electrici

It seems you are out of touch with the liveaboard boat market. It's totally feasible to pick up a boat suitable for coastal cruising for a couple of people for $2,000. Budget another $2,000 for upgrades and you're good to go.

Yrvind is such a legend - he has had me on a micro-cruiser kick for quite a while now. He has a youtube channel that's worth checking out - he's a character that's fun to listen to as well. Other interesting boat designers (t

I'm a lefty and have found cursive very comfortable (and I'm also both an underwriter and an overwriter.) Perhaps if you're a sidewriter you get the worse experience of pushing a pen. I definitely find writing a nicer experie

Well, I would probably put WotC somewhere in the middle of the spectrum, but that's still pretty different from the old-school style of play that XP-for-gold really shines for. WotC also isn't really pushing narrative play mechani

IME the xp-for-loot system works really well for a very particular type of game, a type largely ignored by mainstream TTRPG media. One much pulpier and closer to the classic sword-and-sorcery source material like that written by Fritz Liebe

The organizational control is already the case :) I had to set it up when I was added to my work's GitHub org.

This isn't that very different from having a "deploy-state" branch that runs alongside your master branch too, bringing it even closer to a true monorepo.

If you want an alternative to GM (I can see why you might want to, but I'd be curious to know how many people see it as a problem), "referee" works well. Has an old-school flavor, and because it's an old term it won&#x27

Where I live (one of the most liberal cities in the US), it seems that most taxes get passed - even the poorly structured or regressive ones. It's frankly frustrating to see our profoundly mismanaged school district get yet another 10

This right here is a great example of why unions are essential. They're the only bargaining chip employees really have.

Super happy to see they're doing well and growing - so far the best collaborative whiteboard tool I've come across. A few reasons: 1. No account needed, just send a link. 2. Speedier than alternatives. 3. Some kind of magic making

I use a tiling window manager configured to work alongside XFCE, which provides many of those things you listed, with maybe the exception of hot plugging an external display and the keybindings for volume/brightness. It means I get a p

I graduated from a CS program 6 months ago, and encountered red black trees in just one of my courses, so your experience isn't too different I think.

Happy to see a mention of democratic schooling [0]. In my opinion, as someone who not too long ago left the American public school system (but was also 'unschooled' [1] for the early years of my education), so many of the problems

I got here a touch late, but this seems inspired by or at least a descendant of the Cincinatti Time Store[0], which at the time (1827) was the most popular mercantile endeavor in Cincinatti. [0] https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wi

I wish I could push this post higher - I have worked a few customer service positions (tutor while in university, cashier at a little natural foods store) and I found both of those positions really flexed my social skills and have made my l

As someone who lives in a neighborhood full of stop signs (just about every other street is signed), I find that it actually does exactly what you're saying, i.e. shape drivers' natural behaviors. Almost everyone elects to drive

I was really thankful that I had the same opportunity, and I personally loved my CS ethics course - unfortunately, it seemed like the value and necessity of such a course was lost on a fair number of classmates, who vigorously argued that
