I love FortNine, they always manage to be both funny and informative at the same time. And the way they do really long takes in their videos is really cool. Even the segment about the sponsors is well integrated into the video. The first vi

I also have one (model A1263) bought on Amazon FR. Anker doesn't list it as recalled on their FR site. It lists others though https://www.anker.com/fr/rc2506 Maybe the faulty batteries were only used for some mode

I work on Scala projects. Adding a log means stopping the service, recompiling and restarting. For projects using Play (the biggest one is one of them) that means waiting for the hot-reload to complete. In both cases it easily takes at leas

I use a notebook. It forces me to slow down. I don´t like to cross/erase blocks of text so I actually think about what I'm about to write before writing it. It helps the same way rubber duck debugging does. Also: I just like writi

I have a Toaks burner, I agree it's quite fast ( after the alcohol is heated enough and starts to vaporize, which can take some time when temp < 10-15 degC) but it's nowhere as fast as my gas burner. But it's a compromise

Most of the stoves used for backpacking have the same basic design. I have two: an Esbit and a Toaks, the latter is lighter (it's titanium) but both have the same design as a small Trangia or the one in the article. It takes 7-10mn to

I have one, I used it a few times. Once for a 3 days backpacking trip, it was difficult starting it in the morning as temperature was only a bit above 0 degC. Then for another 3 day hike where I used it to boil water for two persons it took

I take some when I go hiking for a few days, they can handle spending a few days in a backpack and have a good calories / weight ratio.

All solutions are compromises. For example here in France: Wolves ? You have to get guardian dogs (a requirement to get compensated for attacks), accept that a part of your herd will be killed each year (disrupting the dynamic of the herd I

I'd say most of its niches (async with Futures, akka, spark) now have other options. Also, Scala 3 happened.

Intellij is also a subscription, although with yearly subscriptions you get a perpetual licence for whichever version you get while the subscription is active.

It's mentioned in the article: > If I had heard about Janet when starting this hunt, I might have stopped there and not gone on to CL. Nice syntax, small, fast executables, C FFI, a fun intro book. It checks all my boxes.

> ABCL does not exist? I've only played with Clojure (not used it professionally, I'm working with Scala) but Clojure interop with Java is way better than what I can see here: https://abcl.org/doc/abcl-user

I hope I didn´t sound like I did not believe you, I honestly had no idea. I don´t get an update for iTerm2 every week so I figured it was mostly stable / had no sec issue. Following this discussion I decided to give Ghostty and kitty a

A vuln every 7-8 years is "a string of unique and extremely bad vulns"? I use iTerm2, mostly because that's what I'm used to: I installed it on my first Mac years ago when Terminal.app was really bad. I'm willing to

Senior here, I started to use LLMs recently but I still use a debugger. Working with complex code it helps me find the difference between what I think should be happening and what really happens. I don't think a LLM could do better for

I think Haskell seems harder because it's built on another set of abstractions (laziness, typeclasses) where Python abstractions (iterators in this case, plus the with statement for resource acquisition/cleanup) are more common, b

The Haskell version parses the contents of the file. One answer also explains how to lazily read the file to process it as it's read, using the ByteString package. I think part of the overhead here is due to this lazy processing, plus

I would think that "pressing the button to turn on the backlight so I can check the time" would be a good indication that I'm awake :)

Not OP but I have a Fenix 7x. What happens very infrequently is that I would wake up during the night, and then be absolutely still (I'm trying to go back to sleep) except for checking my watch every 15-20mn. This does not get detected

How can you legally stay in Thailand with no retirement or work visa? I don't remember the details (I had a work visa and retirement is still 2 decades away at least) but to get a retirement visa (valid for one year) you need proof of
