I have a similar project but it just serves a single wiki via http and doesn't support WebDAV or authentication, and it's in Rust rather than Go. https://github.com/steinuil/twkwk

I should probably finish last year's. I did all parts mostly in time except for day 20, I couldn't figure out part 2 and just refused to do it.

Author here, kind of. Most parser combinators only deal with strings and streams of bytes, but they can also be used for transforming other kinds of data. I think they're pretty useful for working with stuff like JSON or XML and I&#x27

I also do the same for every album that enters my collection and I share a similar distaste for getting info directly off of online sources. Rather than an auto-tagger I've actually thought about writing a tag linter: something that ch

This is a good thing to think about if you want to make something a habit, or you simply wanna do it more often. I picked up some hobbies that I hadn't been doing very often since I started working by writing some glue code and setting

Middle school is bad just about everywhere, not just in the US. All the teachers I've talked with (mostly in Europe) also observed the same thing. Keeping kids in school at that age is just a bad idea, and if anything that 's wha

Apparently this is in preparation for the new "Proton UI", which is one of those things the design teams in big companies do to justify their existence. I just downloaded Nightly, which already has the Proton UI, and indeed compac

This is nothing new, "static" software with yearly licenses has always been around and if anything it's a guarantee that bugs will get fixed, features will get added and your data won't be sold to third parties.

4chan does strip exif data. Sometimes when people posted photos with location data somebody would notice and order a pizza to their location, back when it was still a relatively civil place, then at some point they started removing it.

I wasn't criticizing DSLs in general, they're great, but in the specific case of web development I prefer React's approach over using a DSL like most other frameworks.

> It's a set of AST nodes. Ok, but you could make the same point about plain JS as in Svelte. I haven't looked into it too much, but from the readme Solid.js looks more like a compiler than a library, so whatever it outputs whe

I should also explain what I mean by "thin syntactic sugar": JSX is a local transformation which doesn't need any external context to be translated to plain JS. `<div className="greeting">Hello</div&gt

by steinuil 6y ago
Yeah, but it's still a DSL and that means that I can't be sure that everything I can normally do in JS is valid there, and external tooling won't be able to make sense of it without additional work.

> JSX is not "Just Javascript" It's very thin syntactic sugar over a function call. It has a very simple 1:1 mapping to the output code, as opposed to "magically reactive `foo = bar`. > I'm sure not many peopl

Average users are absolutely not gonna read all that stuff, much less understand it, when they accidentally install a malicious extension. I'm all for more powerful browser extensions (I really miss vimperator...), and I agree that per

In my region (Piemonte) we certainly do. One of the most distinctive dishes is bagna cauda , which is a dip sauce made mainly of anchovies and tons of garlic. It's usually recommended that you eat it before a day where you don't

Nice, I never thought of testing with "__proto__"! "constructor" is also a fun one.

This feels a lot like what happened to Hack, which at first was compatible with PHP and could be compiled to it, but later became its own language to better fit FB's needs, and it seems like they're giving OCaml the same treatment

> Users often perceive aesthetically pleasing design as design that’s more usable. Is that right? Personally I feel like the opposite is true; I'll take an ugly looking but very usable UI over one that has all the bells and whistles
