That looks great, I will definitely try that out. How well does the time-to-response work as a proxy for how difficult it was to remember something? Is there an option to specify that manually instead?

I'm curious, what format do you use for cards to do this? Do you use Cloze cards like: My delivery driver is ___? How do you specify in the card which co-worker you mean?

Do the breaks tend to affect the TS declaration files, or are they more to the language itself?

What is the proportion of JS libraries in the wild which provide TS type declaration files, either via DefinitelyTyped or provided by the lib itself? Is it normal to have to write your own declarations, or do most libs provide them these da

It's written in a mix of Java (older legacy code), Kotlin (new non-Clojure code) and Clojure.

But if you look at the contributor history for the repo, he's at #54, just after JetBrains' actual CEO . I don't think you could make the claim that Google contribute significantly to the language itself based off that. I de

Do you have a source for this? I develop a plug-in for JetBrains IDEs professionally, I talk a lot to people there and I’ve never heard this.

Thanks, that's very interesting! And yes, I definitely agree about seeing your doctor. We're often unreasonably embarrassed about things like this, but a good doctor will have no problems putting people at ease. And obviously the

This is something I've been wondering for a while, perhaps someone here knows. I've had two colonoscopies, and my understanding was that what they used was a sedative, but I was definitely totally unconscious. What's the line

The court's decision was more nuanced than that. They basically argued that it was technically not legal for a brief period, but justified, necessary and reasonable under the circumstances. It wasn't exactly an erosion of democrac

Here in New Zealand where very few people died of COVID, overall mortality dropped significantly during lockdown. This seems to have mostly been due to a lack of traffic deaths, air pollution improvements, as well as a massive reduction in

Piano Marvel allows you to add your own pieces to the library, I did it with one I found online. What they recommend is using Musescore to convert the MIDI to a score, fixing it up in Musescore and exporting as MusicXML. Musescore did a cre

What about: 0. Platforms may not customise information presented to an individual user based on knowledge the platform has about that user. I guess the issue with that is how far do you go - a webmail client could be considered to be custom

In the US? I doubt it. The US is currently pushing COVID-19 misinformation from the very top.

I need Twitter for support for my product, but I don't really use it that often. So a while ago I set it up to be basically write-only: I use Zapier to send me emails for @mentions and relevant search terms, and I reply to those from a

From the article: We know from studies of patients who had Sars - one of the family of coronaviruses - back in the 2003 epidemic, that almost half of survivors went on to have chronic fatigue or other long-lasting symptoms. So it should no

FWIW I’m a native English speaker and the same happened to me when I learned Spanish. I suspect that with any language, native speakers have a much wider vocabulary and use more colloquialisms, not to mention speaking much faster and more c

How do you manage multiple monitors with MacOS? I was doing this until recently and every single login involved rearranging my windows because MacOS moves them all to whatever display woke up first. I finally got sick of this and wrote a

Interesting, thanks for the feedback. I often miss having a type system in Clojure and I was really hoping that core.typed might be more ergonomic these days. It sounds like it's still a pretty serious tradeoff, and probably not worth

by lemming 6y ago
This is interesting to me as a Clojure person - you would be approximately the first person I've seen using core.typed since CircleCI's post in 2015 discussing why it didn't work for them. Are you using more modern versions o

This is absolutely true. I'm lucky to have it 45 minutes down the road from where I live, we visit frequently. It's gorgeous. (Hi d_t_w!)

Well, I wouldn't use the word "bullshit" to describe the book. Reading (most of) the book caused me to change my priorities from basically "I don't care about how much sleep I get" to "getting enough sleep

Yes, I saw that following links from this thread, and have spent more of the morning than I should have reading it and the various threads discussing it. I think the criticism seems valid, and it probably means I shouldn't use the book
