This is just me, but I would have written the 2000 word article, and made it it a md file on github as future home of the code you're going to drop. Then link it from the 950 word IEEE article. Then you'd already have a crystalliz

Thanks! To be clear, it’s totally fine to write articles like this, obviously. I just felt that some who goes above and beyond on such an esoteric subject would be vibrating with energy to share as many details with likeminded enthusiasts:)

I had the Hp15c (and still have) but always deeply longed for the hp28s, which was the first to implement a lisp-like programming language in a calculator. Had I bought that one, who knows how different my computing life would have been…

Maybe I’m getting senile, but the article lacks even the tiniest amount of detail and contains no link to the implementation. I found also nothing on the intarweb about it, other than this article and a few clones of it. I wonder if this is

Litestream releases 5.9 and newer have a bug that causes instances to sync an insane amount of data. a DB with <10K of data in it and practically no writes/reads causes something like 10GB of daily replication traffic. For my toy pr

Maybe the insanely expensive ($400 +, for no good reason) kitchen mixers? Though, one can buy inexpensive chinese ones if one knows where to look.

I think most people wouldn't care either way. On HN, maybe 95% ppl care; outside, not so much. So the PR risk here is I think reasonably low.

Why would any company brag about their margins ? Yet they do, to attract investors.

Sure, but they do after hackers like the ones attacking Based Apparel. I wouldn't hire a doctor either that has food poisoning every two weeks. I wouldn't hire a security guard that gets held up often.

It would be great to have a "rural revival" where it's worthwhile to go back to the howling old owl in the woods, hunting the horny back toad. Maybe the wave of AI layoffs can actually make that happen. We would need a vision

It has not worked for Borders in Palo Alto. But that was a chain, maybe other locations forced closured everywhere, and that Borders could have survived. I doubt it, however.

That seems like a smart move, given how much the Trump Dynasty seems to be enmeshed in the Bitcoin ecosystem. [Hearsay, I don't actually know more than what has been reported in the news ...]

I really do think there is a good chance that say MI5 or the BND or the DGSE flagrantly ignore the law to catch non-national evildoers, just as much as in the US. The temptation to do this 'in the name of security' is very high. O

I never interface with the peripheral in an ESP32 directly. I guess I really need to read the Free-RTOS code. Micropython just uses that, last I checked.

I didn't say anything ab out that. I am saying that, as a developer (is it really only 1% of laptop owners?), the pixel/chromebooks were not really that useful. Who knows, maybe that's changing with whatever OS this is runn

One of the really nice things of the Macs (from Neo to Studio) is that they have a single UI (that might or might not be ideal for you, but it is unified,) yet underneath it has a Unix OS that lets you run standard compilers, docker contain
