At this point is there anything substantive any country could do at all that wouldn't irritate Russia? It seems as if the powers that be have become so utterly delicate that even something as innocuous as Sweden joining NATO is deemed

An above comment ( https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=30452129 ) seems to rebuke this: "Poland, Slovakia, Hungary and Romania are all NATO members. If Putin takes Ukraine, and redraws his borders, he's just adding

While not an essay, I'd throw Seneca's "On the Shortness of Life" into the mix. It's short and very eloquently raises ideas about what to prioritize in life.

Thank you so much for name-dropping YunoHost! The demo alone sold me on finally going the self-host route for things such as ebooks, music, and photos.

If you're fortunate enough to use Python 3.7 or newer, then you can forego the importing of 'pdb' and using 'pdb.set_trace()' (I think you had a small omission there) in favor of just writing 'breakpoint()&#x27

Since it's been around since 2003, I'm curious to know how many projects out there are using it. Would be great if there are some open source examples available as well. I mostly stick to Python, so I'm most familiar with the

I think I switched to this font a couple of years ago and I've been unable to find anything that even comes close! At this point I would consider JetBrains Mono to be my forever font.

This was also featured in Scott Alexander's Substack [1] earlier this week on Monday. The really bizarre part about this platform is that not only is the person posing the question responsible for judging the outcome, they also get a p

Hats off to the author! I've long been a proponent of the colon command due to its no-op properties, but this just takes it to another level. One would definitely have to provide add comments to the ":" function as there seem

Congratulations on getting something out there! As a nitpick: it's really difficult to understand what the product is trying to achieve, and my friend had the same complaint. Might I suggest a more concrete way to explain how this appr
