Looks good, and I really appreciate the "single player mode"! (My friends don't need to know that I'm socially inept enough to need an app like this...) I alos love the name, assuming it's from the Hindi word for &q

I wonder if you're being obtuse, but I'll try to explain anyway (I'm not parent commenter, but let's see if I can capture why they think this statement is spin.) Gab claim they're being smeared for "defending f

I prefer a third possibility -- that time machines are possible, but can only travel back in a non-recursive manner for a limited sliding window. And we haven't arrived at the boundary of that window yet.

"Anecdata" is usually online shorthand these days for saying, "I know the plural of anecdote is not data, but fwiw here's my experience."

Well, sure. But a governance model that relies on a couple of hundred self-policing contributors needs to evolve with scale, right?

Any open source project that gains enough traction to require a proper governance model has adopted a code of conduct. (Although I'd be interested in seeing if there are any notable counter-examples). Whether or not it is based on the

Interesting. I tried this for a while, then for some reason got really conscious that the over-use of "I" and "me" in the response made me sound too self-absorbed. So nowadays I'm usually slowly thinking through whe

3 hours? I think it might be matter of practice. It takes my partner and I about 30-40 mins to cook a full Indian dinner for the two of us from scratch, these days. I remember it used to take about 80-90 mins when we were less coordinated i

I'm in a similar camp to yours. I've used tonnes of text editors across Windows / Mac / Linux, and Notepad++ was simply the best amongst all of them. TextMate comes closest on the Mac which is why it's my primary GU
