I've experienced something similar! But for me, it only happens when I'm sick. I can at times almost use it as a precursor that I'm about to be sick. I think it might be called "Alice in Wonderland syndrome".

Oni is really cool, but still early days. Since it's just a frontend for neovim it actually seems to use less ram than Atom and VSCode. But VSCode has a big head start and a team behind it optimizing stuff the best they can. I'd l

I love when people try to reinvent stuff like html, but with JSON! Like html somehow would be better with JSON? If he didn't want to use GTK, nor HTML, then he could have just gone with Qt Quick. Qt Quick offers a declarative GUI, it e

I agree; that is problematic. At least the article hinted at the possibility to have a built-in time limit to avoid a deadly dose. Hopefully, this might lover the number of deaths from tasers.

I'm using Webpack, and a Travis CI script to build everytime I push to the main branch. Works fine, no need for a fancy "static website generator", Webpack got you covered.

According to Wikipedia's article on railroad diagrams one of the first appearances of it was in "Pascal User Manual" written by Niklaus Wirth in 1973. Hardly a new idea. It's been used in academia for ages when first tea

Notepad++ has existed for 14 years. Just searching text editors gives tons of alternatives. I'm certain I could find at least a 100 free / open-source ones, not to mention IDEs like Eclipse.

I'm quite happy with Apple Notes. But there are a few things I'd like to fix (Git support, Code highlighting) so I have started on making my own app.

Some git hosting services let you turn off the ability to accept force-push. Github and Bitbucket both support this. That's usually the first thing I do when setting up a shared repo for a project.

The sad part is that he didn't learn his lesson. The problem obviously isn't with Visual Studio Code, but with Git (or whatever version control software he tried out). It seems that he didn't know anything about using git and

I love the idea, however: - Dark colors on black don't work that well, just makes the UI-text hard to read. Couldn't you add some more contrast? Or even better, switch to a white background and just use black text. - I'd also

Bookmarks are where links go to die. So yes I do "use" bookmarks, but never revisit them. What I instead do often is either keep the tabs open or, save them as notes in a note taking app. I feel that the note taking app makes it e

Neat idea. What about a catalog where I can just look around for stuff, instead of having to search for something I know exists? Would be nice to find shows I haven't watched but can bing watch. I would also like to be able to filter i
