I've always struggled with AoC in the past due to work and family commitments, but this year is different. I now have a work from home, flexitime job and thus so much more time to devote to it. Hope to make it beyond day 2 at least!

I sometimes find myself firing it up to play with my daughter, and then still find myself playing it long after she has gone to bed..

Ah thanks I missed that. (It was too close to the 'share this' section for my eyes to wander down there!)

> 106,400 IU vitamin D This is quite a lot of vitamin D? > I think the best way to take action on these findings is to maintain 25(OH)D in 30-40 ng/mL. Also what does this mean in layman's terms?

I worked in an office that had no mobile signal. So for me a 2fa SMS involved walking out of the office and down the road for a few minutes until the SMS came through and then running back to my desk in the hope that I get there in time to

Rogue can notify you when their kettlebells come in stock. I managed to nab one the other week. You have to act fast though, because they sell out pretty quick. https://www.rogueeurope.eu/rogue-kettlebells-eu

Yes! The build tool to use is Spago ( https://github.com/purescript/spago ). It uses package sets which ensures all the packages you use are compatible with eachother. It is incredibly simple to use. spago init

Thats interesting. I don't quite understand how that would work. So can you work around that requirement by just going: if false then <use my type> else <do my things> Technically it is used exactly once,

What are the best resources to learning WebRTC at the minute? It seems to be a pretty fast moving area, a lot of what I find out there is outdated.

"tis just a flu" is probably the least harmful of the lot. There are fairly influential figures out there pushing far more dangerous stories. The virus was manufactured by Bill Gates in order to push a vaccine that contains a trac

Read it to myself and my eyes glaze over, and I've spent the past couple of weeks trying to decipher all the acronyms involved in WebRTC!

https://codersteve.dev/post/ I've been writing about PureScript - primarily with Halogen. You should read it because I think the world would be a better place if more people used PureScript! :-) My (highly opinion

Uptime robot ( https://uptimerobot.com/ ) can be set up to alert you about any upcoming cert expiries. It has saved our necks a few times.

Indeed, this is a perfect example of why it only works when your types are sufficiently polymorphic, and how Haskells type system can't always capture all the required logic needed.

Elm is made for one thing - web apps. It does it well, but it's probably not the only language you would ever use. ReasonML/Ocaml is a general language. You can use whatever framework and platform you like. There is an Elm framewo

If you've not used an ML before, start with Elm. Once you feel you have that sussed - it shouldn't take too long - pull up ReasonML and give it a go. Use the Bucklscript-Tea library - the architecture will be familiar from Elm. Th

I've probably spent a similar amount of time tracking down memory leaks in C# as I have with Delphi. Garbage collector or not - desktop gui app, with lots of event handlers can cause things to hold on to memory a lot longer than they s

Interbase was a proper client server db. If you wanted embedded you needed Paradox. Ah, I have many happy memories of pulling all nighters repairing corrupted Paradox files...

Sure. You are basically specifying operators as aliases for functions, so all these are equivalent: F.applyFlipped blah rhubarb blah `F.applyFlipped` rhubarb blah |> rhubarb (|>) blah rhubarb The number (1) is the

For the record, this doesn't exist in PureScript by default (the default is the symbol `#`, which I don't find as pleasing on the eye). You need to define it: import Data.Function as F infixl 1 F.applyFlipped as |>
