This parallels the conversation going on in the ML world right now. "They just so happen to look like gorillas!" This is not okay. I know it's just a pile of linear algebra and there's no conspiracy to screw a particular

It was mostly a theoretical problem and not something I went through with. I only thought about it because I was also saving the expiration in a session table in mysql and my expires column is a `timestamp` which is 4bytes. I was using a la

I was recently trying to set a cookie to "never" expire. Apparently there's no good way to do this other than pick a date that's far enough out in the future. A stackover answer gave an example setting it for 10 years. I

I think this misses why subreddits work. I have seen subs with very inactive mods and ill-defined subreddit rules still flourish. This is because most content is self-policing by upvotes. Downvoted post dies in new so trolls know they can&#

I am one of those guys who had a 4.0 GPA in college but I never used spaced repetition because what I was doing seemed to work well enough. Post-college I tried it for learning japanese and it seems like a downgrade from my usual approach.

If you generate a typical react app with create-react-app, you get ~1000 dependencies in node_modules: `npx create-react-app some-app-name --typescript` (it was actually exactly 1000 dependencies which is freaking me out because the number

There's definitely a language/paradigm switching cost if you jump back and forth too much. What I found helpful was to prototype all the migrations and queries (of whatever feature or user flow you're building) in a .sql file

I think there's an sql injection in your /settings route. feed-query also looks extremely sketchy too. In general never build queries with javascript template strings from unsanitized user input.
