   This makes me have second thoughts about getting the Apple Card, not sure I want to support this company after that.

   What version of Go are you using? It sounds like an older one. Try the latest (1.12.x). The syscall/js API is still in development and undergoing API changes. It’s not stable like the rest of Go’s standard library.

   I’m glad that Go Mono made the cut. I’ve been using it happily for a while, despite it being an underdog font.

   Fun can be different things for different people. Games can provide different experiences that some people seek.

    Haven’t deleted, but it’s effectively inactive and unused. I’m logged out and don’t check it. Maybe once every few months for a minute.

    I prefer to use the “5 < x && x < 10” style as well. I’ve arrived to the same general conclusion independently, which is reassuring.

    Re-Volt Classic on iOS. It was a very high quality and authentic port of one of my all time favorite childhood games. They released it in 2012 as a 32-bit iOS app. By the time 64-bit became a requirement for iOS apps, the publisher abandone

    Yeah, I was aware of the redirects, they're very helpful! It would've been okay to rely on redirects on a temporary basis if my long-term plan was to move everything to the new username. But I wanted the repos to keep their old UR

    To point out what might be obvious: this doesn't transfer _just_ the stars. It simply swaps two repos, which means the issue tracker, pull requests, watchers, forks, projects, etc., also get transferred with the stars. It's not po

    Nice writeup. It's very valuable that you took the time to share a unique experience with everyone. I've also done a 1.5 year sabbatical, and I can relate. It's both very challenging (to pull off successfully) but also can be

    I would explain it with sampling bias. Take 100 people, and suppose 1 of them decides to stop using Gmail, replacing it with a custom setup. 99 decide to stick with Gmail. The 1 person who spent hours on a custom setup is more likely to lea

    I think VR would be a great way to practice giving talks, especially in front of bigger audiences, etc. To practice being comfortable in that environment.

    The adblocker I use is not visiting websites with annoying ads (much). High quality websites tend to not have them.

    Commit dates don’t necessarily correspond 1:1 to the dates they became public though, so it might be hard to tell.

    I wonder how this can/will affect Go’s standard net package [0]. Will it be able to take advantage of this new Network framework (on macOS)? Or is the framework too high level for the low level primitives net exposes, and will need a n

    Riot probably has enough resources to pay its developers to target Metal on macOS by the time OpenGL is removed (some number of years from now). It’s the smaller scale developers and projects that might not have have such ability.
