Based on the wiki for WaMu, the numbers are not inflation adjusted. According to the BLS CPI calculator, $1.00 in October 2022 has the buying power of $0.73 in September 2008, when WaMu failed. 20.9b is closer to 15.3b in 2008 dollars. B

Personally, having an ergonomic workspace works the best for me. I used to get pain in my neck, shoulders, wrists, and even the joints in my hands. Everyone is different. Here is what I recommend and do myself. * Get a good chair. I bou

I really enjoy creating in Godot. However, I am far from a AA/AAA game dev. Godot is a great tool for creating games independently. Creating 2D tilemaps is significantly improved in Godot 4. For me, the most exciting thing to happen

My Steam Deck arrives tomorrow. I'm really looking forward to it as I think it will be a game changer for some of my favorite games. At a certain point I stopped enjoying playing games at my computer. Since then I've mostly stu

Designed in late 2014, it slightly pre-dates the official Elm Architecture, although thankfully we picked up foldp ideas from early Elm games https://day8.github.io/re-frame/re-frame/#why-should-you-car...

My personal favorite is re-frame for ClojureScript. I have used it to build things like a LaTeX editor with live preview, electron app frontends, and web-apps. There are wrappers like Kee-frame that extend re-frame by linking the URLs que

I don't see MySpace as a failure. It had its time and place and remained relevant for surprisingly long time after Facebook took their crown with MySpace Music.

For fun, programming microcontrollers with Forth. Personally, I find programming an Arduino Uno with Froth much more enjoyable than using the Arduino IDE. You can issue commands from your terminal to your microcontroller to test out diffe

Personally, I never stopped because there are still occasions where the best way to view something is in printed form. Those occasions get fewer by the year of course. For example, in the past I would print directions from MapQuest, and l

I found this paper interesting in light of yesterday's discussion on the future of airships: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=32934121

As with LTA, he’s pushing the humanitarian applications of airships, having entered into a partnership with the World Food Program that he hopes will eventually see his invention delivering food to famine-struck regions. Interesting

You should give something like FlashForth a try if you want something different.

I'm very fond of my Kinesis Advantage2 LF. However, it takes some getting used to. For me, it also makes using standard layout keyboards difficult because my brain has been rewired to use the Kinesis. It is very ergonomic. I no long

When I tried to use jaylib I was not able to get it to work at the time. Might have to give it another shot. The http server used in Chidi is actually fairly new and I was not aware of it. It is part of the spork package. About two month

I use Janet most often as a glue for shell utilities using the sh package ( https://github.com/andrewchambers/janet-sh ). It's a great tool for building small containerized jobs. I think it has a ton of potential

Thanks for all of your work Sean. I've messed around a bit with Joy and have been keeping an eye on the development of the framework.

I felt the same. Books 5 and 6 are a real slog. I haven't been able to finish book six, but I'll try to before the next season is released.

I thought the popup with Changes you made may not be saved. when hitting the back button was a nice tough. All of this is 100% true. I rarely make it all the way through the soft content barriers sites that really do this. I agree with

Thank you for creating Janet. It is a fun language and it's exciting to watch it evolve. With the addition of the event loop and networking I'm curious to know if an http client and http server based on these will be added in th

Thank you for sharing Ferret Lang. I'm excited to try this one out. A year ago I went on a quest for something lisp-like on the Arduino. I came across u-lisp but it seemed limited. I ultimately landed on Forth (not a lisp), which w

Personally, I found myself frustrated with Apple before this announcement. That was an odd experience because I normally find Apple devices to be frustration free. It only bothered me a little that iOS devices are so locked down, but not

I'm always hopeful that airships will make a comeback. I would love to be able to travel from the United States to Europe on an airship, just like they did at the in the early 20th century. I can see a lot of advantage from a comfort
