I learned the top / middle / bottom from a book in elementary school in the early 80's. I did it for a talent show and kids accused me of watching the guy mix it up and memorizing the moves (that would have been more impressi

It depends on what subset of Notion you use. Nothing (including Notion) is perfect for me. I'd like to build my own eventually, but I'm currently using Obsidian which doesn't hit your "works in the browser" require

It's been a couple of decades, but I believe that was the one that had an issue at time of purchase (which they replaced). The replacement worked about five years ago when we last watched it.

My Dad took me to the Dayton, Ohio Hamvention a few times back in the late 80's/early 90's. It looks like they still exist. I didn't really have a lot of money to spend, but it was fun experiencing the culture and lookin

I've been putting a .gitignore file containing a single * inside my scratch directories. But ~/.gitignore sounds like a good idea for local things that I do in every repository.

This game was one of my favorites. And many years ago I was pleased to learn that the lobby in the game was inspired by my Dentist's office (450 Sutter St in San Francisco). https://www.doublefine.com/news/450-sutt

I've attempted to use the sandbox-exec utility, but didn't have the stamina to get a working sandbox file written. In general, I'd like to be able to sandbox more things. I'm using the app store version of slack because

In my previous house, I had mice get into a bag of gochugaru, so I guess some mice can tolerate it. For squirrels, I've only sprinkled it on the ground to keep them from digging up my garlic cloves.

Thanks for the post. I see now that it's bananas, but I didn't quite get that from the blog post. You list the things this agent can do, but I immediately assumed it went in the other direction, because anything else would be bana

I see. I was intending to use a container to sandbox npm/yarn, it sounds like that is pointless. npm scares me - if there is a way to sandbox it on a mac, I'd like to know.

I did the same a couple of decades ago and enjoyed it. It was especially interesting to see a slice of early sci-fi. It's been a while, but I remember enjoying "The Big Time" and Connie Willis' books.

I always used a solid background in X (usually slate gray) to save memory. I've continued to do that in general, but happen to have a Monument Valley background on one of my laptops at the moment.

It would be nice if node did tail call optimization, but that seems unlikely at this point (v8 added and then removed it). I've been using bun as a backend for my toy language because of this.
