I think troubleshooting has a lot of overlap with thinking along the lines of the scientific method. 1. You have to start having hypotheses that you test, but should be ready to throw them away as quickly as you thought of them, when the re

As I understand, the vulns come because of a big messy codebase and the idea to solve everything with another 3rd party plugin. Processwire OTOH is fantastic in this regard. Super small and generic core with minimal, close to non-existent a

Pimsleur is awesome, and the next best thing besides immersion/interaction with real people IMO. Great if you have 30 min uninterrupted time daily during commuting or similar (this is what I use my bike commutes for, although with bone

It was an eye opener for me to realize the simple fact that: You will learn what you practice. If you practice reading and speaking words, that is what you will learn. Unfortunately the language is not in its essence consisting of words (al

Yeah, I also don't imagine using the raw output directly that much, but realize there must be many things one could do with the help of the new capabilities. I've been thinking about things like automatically generating Anki flash

I learned to play the keyboard on my father's DX11, in the late80s/early 90s, and remember the sounds with warmth. The DX11 doesn't seem to have been at all as well known or iconic though, and have only seen the DX7 being wri

There is even a lot of potential for communicating more effectively here: By giving 2-3 examples, that describe the same thing from slightly different aspects, you can to some extent overcome the ambiguities of language, by letting the read

This is super exciting! I've written before about how I think the more FBP-style concurrency of Go and the message passing one in Erlang complement each other as much as streaming DNA processing inside the cell and fire and forget cell

Looks cool, and definitely like the standalone binary format. Tangentially, glad to see more biotech stuff finally making the front on HN! :D

One of the few places these kinds of jobs still exist is within the universities, in various labs or research cores. Pay is often lower, but quality of life and work often way higher, with much more freedom under responsibility.

A bit tangential, I had this revelation one day that data itself is really quite cumbersome to work with. More cumbersome the higher the quantity you have of it. And also, it is actually mostly merely a serialization of knowledge that is in

I find the analogy itself super interesting and thought-provoking, and might be quite useful in studying biological systems. The idea that we need to move away from understanding the genetic code as static machinery also aligns well with re
