Hi! I've used your library in various projects and am very grateful for it! I figured it'd be worth a shot to ask you this here, since I just caught you: have you considered adding some support for "rehooking"/&quot

Ah, I expect that this is where things might go south! Since many apps are built for x86/x64, I'm sure that when you migrate to the M1 mac, they will run in intel "emulation" mode or just crash/fail! I'm not ta

These are all just anecdotes. From you, OP, and me... > Been running Xfce since 2004 with no stability issues whatsoever. I ran Linux (and was a _fierce_ OSS fanatic) from ~2002 to 2012. I've been a mac user since 2012. I moved arou

I have churned through three macs since 2012 and have never once installed fresh. Time machine has helped me move between them. At one point I had to temporarily move back to an old one while the other one was being fixed, and I did the exa

Sequence diagrams are the one UML diagram I regularly still produce to communicate behavior both to other developers and less technically minded people. I personally find them great (as long as you don’t get carried away in very minute nota

People in these arguments always talk about the algorithms, but I think that entirely misses the point. It rarely is about the algorithms themselves, but, rather, it's about the data structures. One is obviously tied to the other, but

Holy cow. Is there proof they were the ones who did that? Can't that be considered slanderous in some parts of the world?!

I was still actively lurking around slashdot when the new guys came in and bought slashdot and sourceforge. I don't know if any of them are reading, but I think you've done a remarkable job. It saddens me that I don't get to

socat is an invaluable tool. I first came about it at my first job, where we (just two clueless dudes) had to migrate the mostly undocumented infrastructure of about 15 machines at Digital Ocean to Linode, adding replication and failover on

Someone must have tripped over a couple of wires back in China! EDIT: Clearly, I failed to make it obvious, but I meant this as a joke. I don't believe our traffic is "hubbed" or affected by China in any way whatsoever...

Alas, I am OP, the one with the Cookie Clicker tab, and I came to Cookie Clicker after Universal Paperclips: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=26469366 I have to say that UP was definitely a much better experience.

I've played Universal Paperclips from start to finish 4 times! I loved it. In fact, I loved it so much the last time around that I wanted to have another game "somewhat like it" in the background -- that's where the rece

I keep 3 pinned tabs in my browser: - Reddit (my main source of addiction) - HackerNews (the second source of addiction) - Cookie Clicker (a rather recent addition that I'm slightly embarassed of) At a point in time I also had facebook

Clearly the next step is to move NAO to the blockchain, so we can play nethack in the most immutable and verifiable way possible! (Congrats to OP. I find the project fascinating nonetheless :))

Perhaps OP means the games themselves are not open-source?

Precisely.

> Yes, exactly. You want to understand how a codebase changed and evolved over time? Git is your friend. If you want the facts of the code today? The source code is your friend. 100% agree. Though I don't mind if comments also leave

I find it highly backwards that documentation on "what to use instead of X" is in the commit message disabling X. One _might_ do it and might remember to do it, but IMO it makes absolutely no sense for this not to be documented pr

It seems to me that "Flutter (2) for Web" is still mostly "rendering widgets/elements to a canvas", and therefore lacking native HTML/CSS, etc, making it pointless in many ways. Am I missing something or did th

You have no idea how much I feel the same too. I sometimes journal my thoughts, and I have a bit of my journal here to share with you which reflects exactly what you mentioned about "feeling bad about feeling good": --- For most p

Lockdown has allowed me to properly realize how much I really do not care about going out. I may enjoy social outings, and for a while I used to have weekly scheduled social outings having much fun in them. In spite of that, I've alway

Many years ago, I wrote jar2app: https://github.com/Jorl17/jar2app At the time, I had a Minecraft jar on my hands, and I was tired of it not showing up in Spotlight's results because it was "just" a Jar.

I instantly thought of something similar when I looked at your code. I like the simplicity! I used to combine RabbitMQ and Celery for async tasks. Mostly because it's what I learned to do since it was already in use at my first job. Bu
