   This is the correct take and why productive conversation around this topic is so challenging. Even if their actual goal is their stated goal their world view is so different from those who disagree with them it’s near impossible to use evid

   Not a lot of packages but more than 0. For example I’m working on a small static site generator so I’m using lunamark. Fennel has the ability to compile[0] to a binary that works pretty well and very well so long as you don’t have any dynam

   Maybe it would be more accurate to say the ecosystem seems abandoned? But I think what’s actually happening there is I’m coming from the nonsense that is npm so I see one option for making http requests that is just bindings to libcurl and

   I’ve been playing with Janet recently as well and really enjoying it. It does seem slightly abandoned though. I can’t tell if it’s similar to what’s happening with Common Lisp where thins are simply complete, or if the small ecosystem that

   This is largely a legacy of reconstruction as well. To prevent the lower class uniting based upon their shared class the upper classes pushed division based upon their differences.

   I fell as a child and the damage killed two adult teeth before they could grow so I still have two baby teeth. My dentist without fail reminds me I’ll need implants eventually and I always say I’m holding out till they can just regrow my te

   I was able to renew my passport fully online last year. We were finally getting somewhere with building good government tech. Really sucks that in order to prove their point that government is always useless they’ve decided to just destroy

   That makes sense. I’m just thinking statistically though. All we’ve proven is that some asteroids have R-amino acids. If it’s a 50/50 shot you could easily find a dozen R asteroids because it starts to look really bad for it being a 50

   That’s definitively helpful thank you. I guess I’m still surprised that this finding is being taken to mean left handed molecules couldn’t have come from asteroids. If anything it seems to me to increase the likelihood of the panspermia hy

    I don’t know a ton about how chirality works. Couldn’t it just be that half(or some number) the asteroids contain left handed and half contain right? We only have a sample of one. Or is there something fundamental about left handed molecule

    I agree with your takeaway however the comment you’re replying to is reacting to the tone and the presentation and I agree with them. The two points in the article, that 80% is done by 20% and that to get to 20% all you need is relatively l

    I agree it’s a huge disgrace and half of the US is living in a fantasy land. However polls show that Americans don’t like Putin. A poll two weeks ago[0] actually showed 81% of Americans do not trust Putin. Finding 81% agreement about anythi

    This is true of all levels of abstraction. The next question is: does this level of abstraction cost more than it’s worth.

    One of the cool things about groups openly publishing their rules of engagement is that others can decide if they want to engage with them. You find these abusive. Others find them helpful. By publicly stating these rules it helps people to

    I’ve been self hosting linkding[0] and it has archiving capabilities. Saves in html not markdown but that’s basically the same thing. It’s been very useful and then I back the folder up to R2 for free. I enjoy knowing that if I find somethi

    I still think very fondly of my 11” MacBook Air. The idea of a 12” framework laptop is very appealing.

    This is an awesome tool. I noticed a really fun bug here where if you start a new faster sort before a slower sort finishes the slower sort keeps going and you end up with a the two sorts running at the same time, I think against different

    Lua is a much cooler and more useful language than I think it, publicly, gets credit for. I know it’s widely used in many industries but so many times I’ve read an article like this and thought that it could be even more widely useful. I’m

    My understanding is that it was due to the moon being full which caused them to not have as much of an ability to observe it during the past few estimations. In an article[0] linked from the above link they state: > Now that skies are da

    This is what makes this whole discussion so difficult. The US government isn’t as efficient as it could be. No one with any exposure to its inner workings will disagree with that. But the discussion is being framed as “well either you love
