Meta: I submitted it ~2 months ago because I ran into the topic for work reasons. I found the connection to Minsky reason enough since I didn't know that, and also the technology itself is of course very cool and probably not well know

Wow! Great to see this here, I'm being slightly nostalgic but this feels like it really deserves some kind of success. I bought the predecessor (v3 because reasons) in 2010 for $27, it's impressive that this new version which has

True, and now we also get typeof() so there is more than one way! const typeof(var1) tmp = var1;

I don't know what to say about this subject, not having been subjected to it (and also having a lawn and sometimes considering getting a (battery-powered) blower). I found this part of the article annoying in a misleading bad-sciency k

Meta: the missing comma compared to the original makes it very hard to parse at least for me as a non-native speaker. I suggest just "Hans Reiser speaks from prison" or something.

Wow, that's cute! And it has a (weirdly written in the specs, but I'll reinterpret based on images) 160x40 color screen connected over 4-wire SPI. That means it can be fast, and having a full keyboard and a decent CPU means ... th

In other words, it's a known source that posts semi-regularly about pleasingly low-level and technical things, with authority and often including assembly code in the posts. Sweet. For me it's an almost certain upvote, i.e. I&#x27

Meta: I think the title is click-baity and could be clarified. Perhaps to something like "YouTube doesn't work with ad-blockers enabled" or something.

In Sweden he is called Billy, probably because "bandit" means gangster/thug/criminal, kinda. Most other names of main characters are unchanged, I think. We really love Bluey.

It's way past fridge, and into the serious (deep) freezer range. Our home freezer is set to -18 °C which would be 255 Kelvin). Around 45 Kelvin away from room temperature, I'd say without looking up the formal definition.

This looks like a fun historical view of programming in the 70s and 80s. The section about C, though, I'm sorry to say is littered with flaws and should be rewritten and/or proof-read by someone with more knowledge about the langu

Wow! Thanks for responding, and providing such an awesome answer. Yes, that sounds very much like a lack of "static", which makes it even more confusing. It sounds unlikely that someone would start a browser project in C and not k

Cool, I remember the name Dillo from ... way back when, I guess. Interesting to see a mix of C and C++ in the same codebase, that always makes me curious if there is some internal/mental "pressure" to convert the C code to C+

Meta: the title is truncated and missing the last word, "ever".

Ah I did not get that meaning, then obviously it's a perfectly cromulent word. Thanks and TIL.

Is "ampacity" really a better word than "current"? And the unit symbol is just "A", like "30 A". I realize I'm nitty but this is a technical-minded forum after all.

Please note that "glibc" is the GNU C library, which is highly distinct from "glib" which is the general-purpose utility library underlying GTK and many other GNOME-adjacent technologies.

Standard in Sweden (Europe?) is 10.6% sugar. This is printed on the can, in the standard nutrition info table that is on all packaged foods. I'm surprised this is not common knowledge, but I guess people in general don't read labe

Also not a native speaker, but the second "of" makes that interpretation impossible (in theory, obviously not for you in practice).

It's a software implementation (on the ESP32 microcontroller) of something that the Gameboy will think is a printer. You print to it, and images are made accessible on the ESP's web server instead of on paper.

Sounds weirdly cool (especially if it's part of the tire , thus breaking the general usability of off-the-shelf tires). Unfortunately I couldn't view the movie due to some cookie-shaped bug. :/
