I don't know how useful it is, but this depiction of a lexical scanner in Bob Nystrom's Crafting Interpreters always stuck with me. https://craftinginterpreters.com/image/scanning/lexigator.pn...

Great read, congratulations on giving someone another chance at life. Donating stem cells is one of the most unambiguously selfless things a person can do. About 2 years ago my dad was diagnosed with ALS, a particularly aggressive form of L

Are you playing on a phone or using a high DPI monitor? By default HTMLcanvas (which most game engines use to handle text) does not take into account high DPI scaling (I would guess due to performance). This isn't inherit to JS game en

I find it hard to fault a newspaper for pushing an opinion a large majority of it's readers share [1]. Also 9/11 was literally in their backyard. If someone flew a plane into your neighbors house you'd behave pretty irrationa

I know very little about the embedded world. Does anyone familiar with that space know how this compares to SQLite?

That's very interesting because my boss is Indian and he hired only one other Indian person out of like ten new hires over the years. Then again, my company does have a lot of diversity and inclusion folks looking over the hiring proce

I actually saw this on my trip to London last month. Definitely one of the more interesting exhibits there, part art, part historical exhibit, part philanthropy. Definitely worth a visit in person.

I agree, but that doesn't extend to top level stuff like gating content behind logins. That's kinda what I was trying to say.

Is A11y a nice to have? Doesn't the ADA mandate a certain level of accessibility on companies of a certain size.

by koshergweilo 4y ago
Accessibility mostly means that the intended experience is preserved if you need to use tools like screen readers. Accessibility != User Friendly

I actually met this guy before, he's been making these custom eyes for as long as I can remember. He said it took him a while to get comfortable making something water-tight enough to stick it in his eye. Last I talked to him he was ta

Oh I agree, it doesn't apply to this particular case but it is the textbook definition of a reasonable limit on free speech. The poster I was replying to seemed to be under the impression that the first amendment protected all forms of

First amendment has limitations. Saying fire in a movie theater, for example. Multiple courts in a number of separate jurisdictions have ruled that the first amendment does not protect Jones in these cases

An interesting tidbit that I found in the source code is that it only accepts integers from 1 to 20. Perfectly sufficient for its use case, although not quite extendable as I would hope

Great write up! I still don't really see the point in pre-rendered backgrounds for PC/console games anymore though. GPUs nowadays are powerful enough and storage space is limited enough that you can just render everything realtime
