As someone that owns more than a few synths and pedals, I hope one day that someone releases a decent multi-port USB charger that can power a bunch (10+) of 12V and 9V devices easily. All the ones I've found don't extend PD (QC3 w

Yeah, I definitely see the appeal on that. I'd pay for this as an offline app that doesn't hand over all my emails to a random third party though. Pity it's only Goog/MS/Yahoo so far too. Really, it should be any IM

I came to the same conclusion for the same reason (an address I've only ever used for communicating with xfinity). I don't recall the exact time span however as I did the usual, disable the address and move on with my life (and I

The context of this is entirely what is the lowest amount of ceremony that we need in order to reduce the teaching overhead of a java program. This really comes down to simple first up, with easy exits towards more complex. That very much l

Yeah, I hadn't quite figured how you'd mix this such that the arguments are passed by convention, so your point about single function interfaces is a good one there. BTW, I think the pedantic view on this based on the (mailing lis

That really should be an offline tool, not an online one that requires full access to all your emails.

Another option is any classless java file is just a class with the same name as the file implementing Runnable. E.g. Foo.java println("foo") Becomes: class Foo implements Runnable { void run() { System.out

A quick dnsimple / fastmail question, what is the purpose of the _client._smtp SRV record in you fastmail template? The only thing I can find about it seems like a draft rfc standard that was never finalized. FastMail definitely doesn&

Rather than Arduino, something by the raspberry pi foundation might hit the spot and make this sort of thing ubiquitous. Perhaps call it the "Raspberry Phi"?

This tracks. I recall being surprised by the behavior of the Cmd+W keyboard shortcut in the new IDE that closed the window rather than the tab[1]. Keeping it simple seemed to be the main factor driving the way UX choices were made. [1]: ht

I don't think I'd ever noticed this. Flipping between the system font option and Proxima Nova, there's not a huge difference (on a Mac). I do find it subtly easier to read however, so would agree that attention to detail is

Words per minute spoken - 120-150 Words per minute read - 220-350 When doing some other task side by side with consuming a movie with captions, the combination of reading and hearing allow a better comprehension than just one or the other.

You don't have a software problem, you have a people problem. You have some directly measurable consequences of the underlying issues, as well as some obvious risks that are generally being ignored. Start with those: 1. Productivity is

Sounds like the author realized they have a pet that they've been trying to treat like some weird franken-cattle for some time. The note about dns is fairly orthogonal to this though. Sensible naming should be the default regardless of

The meta answer to the question is this info belongs at the non-existent doc - https://nixos.org/manual/nix/stable/installation/macos.html , but no-one has put it there yet.

Look at it from a frequency perspective instead of genetic. When you overlay two waveforms that are related x:1, the zero points of the waveforms align. The wave resets at the same instant. If instead the waveforms are related not exactly,

Expertise / knowledge doesn't really matter. It's gone when your lifetime ends. Pick something else that remains. Impact. Take a look at https://80000hours.org/ for some inspiration. You have 80,000 hours

The fun thing about this book (which I haven't read in it's entirety) is that it really shuts down a lot of the maximalist ideas in a few places (here's one particular section). There are really two questions lurking here

I just found out the other day that the original AC-LR is no longer supported in the most recent controller software and hasn't been for a year or so. It still works though. Probably time to upgrade :D
