I'm sorry to hear about your loss of faith in humanity. Especially hearing how you don't play music with others anymore. I'm a musician and not being able to make music with my friends would be a huge loss. I hope you find pe

maybe it's pedantic but I don't want to read an article that can't properly capitalize sentences.

Calories burned is just the start of the benefits of exercise. It also promotes muscle development which will cause fewer aches and pains as one ages. It increases lung capacity through deeper breathing, which promotes the parasympathetic n

Exercise and calorie reduction don't have the same effect. Running stresses the body which promotes muscle growth and reduces resting heart rate (among lots of other physical benefits). Calorie restriction forces to body to fill an ene

It's true. I'm sad to see how far downhill Spotify's UX has slid on all fronts, but especially native. They are also suffering significantly on the customer service end. I asked for a data dump months ago and haven't got

I'm using a combination of Elixir, Hugo, a bit of Python and GitHub Pages for a personal site that hosts my poetry. I set up a simple hourly job in elixir to check Evernote for any new poems I've tagged with poetry:publish. If a n

Nice little tidbit about searching from normal mode, I'll be sure to copy that into my own .tmux.conf!

What are the advantages of switching to an interpreted runtime? Btw I used htmx for a small project a few months ago and it was super easy to get working. Definitely recommend it, and looking forward to trying out 1.0 as soon as I have a ch

I'm a bit biased as someone who's already used to nvim, but the coc-elixir support is fantastic. Takes a bit of configuration but once you've got the language server set up it's better than any IDE.

Programmers and problems come in a bunch of varieties. Some programmers only need to solve a small subset of problems, so understandably their skill set doesn't need to be particularly broad. It's ok to be capable in a niche area

Are humans really designed to live life in auto-mode, of is that a byproduct of living in a modern society? Philosophers of the past may not have been exposed to the same amounts of information we take for granted daily, but biologically th

Looks a lot simpler than contracts... I'm much happier with the aesthetics of using interfaces for generic constraints. Looks a lot simpler to use. Besides, it's completely compatible with existing code, only a minor update will b

I've become quite a fan of Shobu lately. It has very simple game mechanics, even simpler than chess, yet still involves a lot of strategy and tactical thinking.

Isn't that why most people use Docker nowadays?

Haskell's an old language, pushing 30 years now... Rust is still a relatively young technology. There are lots of improvements that could be built but only a handful of people to build them.

A former colleague of mine used to rail on Docker for MacOS a few years ago. He always complained about it being super slow to sync with the local file system. I never had any issues but was running everything on Linux. Since then I've

Purely anecdotal evidence, but Julia's support for basic HTTPS server capabilities is immature at best. Sure, it is capable, but the amount of effort to build an web API is much higher than in a language like Python which has had many

I just sent in my spit last week and I thought they were very transparent about their data protections. They allow for you to delete your data and deny access by third parties, albeit they require 30 days to process any changes. I'm in
