If that's the criteria then we still have an inconsistency: tobacco and alcohol should be banned. The alternative is to be consistent in the other direction (which to some that are after "freedom" sounds more appropriate).

I'm also curious about this but don't really understand this explanation. Can you elaborate more on what "uncloneability of digital assets" means exactly and why it's a pre-requisite of proof-of-stake? Happy to take

There is a lot of parallels with Matrix here. I'm sad to say that the Element client just isn't polished enough to win me over Discord. Most people, including myself, don't really care about the proprietary nature of Discord.

What could possibly be easier? You need to at least upload your website.

This is really cool. Just a bit of pedantry: is Python higher-level than C? If so this isn't a transpiler but a compiler :)

I'm also not sure why I'd use WSL2 and there are at least three big problems I ran into with it straight after upgrading: * It broke my ability to flash my ESP32 via USB (guessing WSL2 has trouble accessing USB devices) * It uses

I’ve built a lightweight Discourse clone that you may be interested in checking out. We use it for the Nim programming language forum. https://github.com/nim-lang/nimforum

Seatbelts also affect your passengers (if you are wearing no seatbelt then your body can kill your passengers). So it's not just a personal decision.

hey, just an fyi. I believe we definitely reached the $500 during the 48 hours. Not sure if you matched it yet, but even if you don't get a chance to, thank you for helping us get donations :)

I disagree with this and I guess most here. I think the screenshot that Drew displays is actually showing a stale bot that's misconfigured, maybe this is how GitHub's stale bot works by default, but I would say the crucial bit is

Wow, amazing. Thank you so much! Unfortunately this thread was demoted by HN mods so unlikely to be seen now, I don't suppose you'd allow me to tweet this out? :)

Done. Nano added to https://nim-lang.org/donate.html . Thanks in advance!

Great! All conferences should transition to having an online edition (in addition to an in-person event if there is demand). Not everybody can travel half way around the world to a conference. It's also often much more inclusive- perso

This sounds awesome! But is it the right approach if I am just running a simple Prometheus instance on my home NAS? I've wondered for a while how I can persist my Prometheus timeseries, I guess I could use promscale for this, but maybe

I was expecting something completely different. As somebody that hasn't really liked Stardew Valley that much, this just looks exactly like Stardew Valley. Maybe these games aren't for me.

That's absolutely fair and we appreciate the donation a lot. One additional thing that would have been fairly cheap: call out the smaller open source projects you donated to. To some the exposure can mean a lot in a blog post like this

Really cool to see $100 donated to Nim as part of this, although it does pale in comparison to the $23k Rust + Rust projects have received.

It would be interesting, yes, but the maintainers of that have explicitly refused to add Nim (and other "new" languages).

Instead of beautifulsoup you're honestly better off just running an instance of Firefox/Chrome and scraping data that way. You can do fairly easily these days and I have a library that allows you to do so in Nim: https:/&#x2
