I didn't know, and still assumed the blog post on localforge.dev was written by the localforge.dev people. Who else?

I also often limit myself to 3 hex digits. The colors look very similar (except the really light ones), and it's more convenient to work with 3 hex digits than with 6 hex digits.

Ah, I thought they were all permissively licensed! Good to know. Can I at least distribute the woff2 of each? Is there any common thing that I can do with all the Google fonts? I suppose I can at least look to them from a website? But not

There exist many problems for which it's easy to verify the inputs-outputs, but much harder to write the functions to convert the inputs into the outputs. Just write an executable spec and have the AI generate the code that fulfills it

This is almost too obvious to write a blog post, no? Many great artists died in complete obscurity (eg van Gogh). Some have found their fame posthumously (eg van Gogh). I'm sure many who were even more ahead of their time remain in obs

At my work, we play much much better board games than Settlers of Catan and Ticket to Ride. I feel for Zuck and his colleagues.

What? There's an endless supply of permissively licensed fonts, eg on Google Fonts. Many of them are actually pretty good. Yes, you'll find some bad ones too.

But the git repo is also fully on their local computer. Isn't that owning ? Just because there's a copy elsewhere does not invalidate the local copy!

Good. Then you can live off grid actually! "Using the grid as a battery" is the unsustainable part.

Verification is a different thing than a "blue check". I might be against blue checks, but for sure I'm for anyone being able to hand out verifications. It creates a web of trust, and ideally one can choose who they trust a

Oh wow, are we living in the same universe? To me the one-line example and your example with line breaks... they just... look about the same? See how adding line breaks still keeps the `|w| w.alive` very far from the `filter` call? And th

You'll need a lot of batteries. It might or might not be economical, but definitely not ecological. So... depends on your values and goals.

This is unsustainable: you deliver power when its real market value is close to zero, and you want to take power out of the grid when its real market value is large.

Yes, what you did is strictly more powerful than what the Python people did. And you did it 20 years ago. Well done, have an upvote. And yet, here we are in 2025 with Python popularity growing unstoppably and (approximately) no one caring a

Yes. Due to an unfortunate event, I'm a single father. My life improved dramatically when I started doing all the chores while the kid was awake: - We do the chores together. - Yes it takes ages, but I need to kill the time anyway. - T
