My beautiful Pebble Time Steel died of salt water damage, the prior Pebble 2 SE got disintegrated by sunscreen. I have to take ruggedness into consideration.

Car coordinates are mirrored from a live NES emulator running the original game side by side with the Unity port. It gives the game controls authenticity. To my knowledge, it is the first such attempt.

I'm assuming you replied to the wrong comment. If not, then all I see is straw men about performance, and I didn't mention none.

The parent comment illustrates the problem with one clear example. In real-world code functions pass around amorphous maps, they add, subtract and transform fields. There is no way to know what's being passed around without reading the

My first language and IDE :_) By chance I had this thick beige manual in my household. Once, when I was a kid, I caught chickenpox. I spent a week or two in bed with GW-BASIC manual and an English dictionary. That's how I learned two m

SQL is around 40 and there is still no reliable tool for SQL formatting comparable to Prettier or gofmt. At least not for Postgres. There are several formatters but they break on advanced features like stored procedures. If someone is looki

Thank you for sharing. The trait of using incorrect synonyms is interesting. Perhaps this shows the limit of their cognitive ability.

Very interesting and well written. I have a thought that if you have entities in your head, you may as well make them pay rent. If you record the conversations or just your experience, other people would be willing to pay to learn about it.

Indeed. In practice, SQLite is the only embedded SQL OLTP DB. It doesn't have a rival. What we need is more competition in this space. I for one would love to have something with a feature set and strictness comparable to Postgres. A d

This was probably the single worst design decision of JavaScript. It is the only language I know of that has two "absent value" types. If null was a billion dollar mistake, then undefined adds an order of magnitude to the problem.

If the goal is to make a window-based store, then why do you need AI at all? Just release the hat once payment goes through. This reminds me of thousands of blockchain projects that used the technology to flip on light switch.

You are a lucky parent. I would start with Scratch and then move to a Basic with 2D drawing capabilities and then to Blitz3D which is a Basic with a 3D engine. Have a look at all the positive reviews.

On a practical side of things, how did he manage to make it to 100? Did he maintain a nutrition plan, was he physically active? Fun fact: Henry Kissinger was elected an international member of Russian Academy of Sciences in 2016.

I can give an example. If something moves back in time, it interacts as if it has negative mass relative to us, who move forward in time. Of course nothing moves back in time but tachyons which exist only on paper. The worlds of things movi

Yes. Maybe I took it too far. I was implying that the fewer choices you give to the user the better scalability you will be able to achieve.

Indeed. A query builder is only really useful for dynamic queries and in practice they are few. I would argue that for performance and complexity reasons dynamic queries in real-world applications should be avoided.

It looks like one poor choice leading to another poor choice. They probably chose Prisma because it may have helped them with GraphQL, whereas they most likely don't need any GraphQL at all. Then they are screwing around with AWS Lambd

The whole thing is enticing. I'm looking at it as a replacement for tool version managers like NVM, pyenv, asdf and probably as a replacement for local Docker. There is, however, a doubt that I might fight it more than I would benefit

The ultimate failing of Clojure as a tool is its inefficiency measured in $ per feature. The language is not very approachable for junior programmers. You can grab a Python programmer and graft them on a Java or TS project and the same week
