The beauty of Roam-style approach is that most of the work of updating the graph is implicit - you just reference a tag or a keyword, and it automatically gets connected with all other instances of that keyword (with context). And explicit

I mean, outliners are literally 60s/70s tech and they're just now getting their heyday (in the form of Roam and others). Give mindmaps time :)

It implements Roam-style syntax, backlinks and graph view, in what way is it not a Roam alternative?

Haha, it used not to be, but then Google crippled the feature. Firefox is looking better by the day.

Super cute! I assume it's using the pentatonic scale or other music theory trickery to make "anything" sound good? :) First try, came up with https://music-grid.surge.sh/#4-2048-8-2114-2-2370-2-2112-321... , a

Honestly I'm just glad that "Zettelkasten" as a concept is getting more exposure and it's being called what it is, instead of getting eaten up as "a part of Roam". The literal cult surrounding it certainly does

Whoa, it seems that AMD has really blown it out of the water here. Good to finally see competition!

Uh, LGPL explicitly doesn't prevent even proprietary software from using the encoder?

Wow, I am pretty surprised by this decision. I've been using Firefox Preview for a while, and while I do enjoy the new approach, I still regularly encounter bugs, including those that make me lose open tabs or other regressions for whi

Great! Sometimes you don't need huge magic libraries with tons of features, but solid, good, plumbing. Will definitely be checking out and potentially replacing requests and aiohttp.

Hahaha, despite playing VVVVVV around the time of its release (it's really been 10 years, wow), I realized I could still feel my muscle memory firing up when I saw this level.

In my view you just replaced an explicit API built on top of known protocols, by a semi-magical implicit API. The problem of serialization, deserialization, versioning, endpoint design... They aren't an artifact, they're intrinsic

Yup; don't mind a little informality, but all this shit and asses and fucks are trying too hard, don't really want to give my money to a project that markets itself as this hypercool.

Kudos for the project, but I am afraid that if people keep calling random AR experiments "Dynamicland", it will quickly lose meaning - see https://paperprograms.org , a project much closer to Dynamicland, but at leas

Contrary to popular belief, the browser can perform POSTs as well as GETs. An inline form on the webpage that POSTs the result is not a "webpage/separate tool". Option 2 would be to use the browser's dev console.

Right; it's somewhat silly to suggest standard compliance to a service obviously not meant for any sort of serious use, but this irked me too.

"Guessing" and "a bit like" are key qualifiers here; error correction codes in QR provide a pretty hard guarantee and won't scan corrupted. With this scheme, who knows?

Unfortunately, due to the OSS nature of the game, it's super easy to cheat :/ The patches to wallhack and autoaim are literally a 2 min google search away, and the compile process is well documented and easy. I wonder what kind of

I don't think a simple description will cut it; the idea is that with co-working, you meet up (physically) at some space, and all work on your projects. The simple fact of not being at your home and in the presence of other people with

What are you on about? kkrieger also makes extensive use of the Windows/D3D apis.
