I use `!rust` all the time when I just want to pull up the rust docs quickly, since their search is much more effective when I just want to know about the API for a File or something, though I don't get much more value out of them than

I agree that Github is not the solution the open source community is looking for, and feel the pain of the lacking privacy controls. Still, I feel that development on Github is much more accessible than that on a mailing list, and there

I can't speak for others, but I'm driven away from contributing to projects that use mailing lists because there's a high barrier to entry, and here's a source of other people having the same issue[1] to corroborate my a

If you’re on macOS, the screen blanking is a known issue that’s happening because of some unknown interaction between the OS rendering and Emacs double buffering. IIRC, the mailing list thread about it concluded saying that nobody who wante

IIRC, this is happening because of the complete internal rewrite - the relevant APIs to expose to extensions simply don't exist yet, and they're implementing them to get the most-wanted extensions available first.

It lets you check that a+b > a for unknown unsigned b or signed b known > 0, to make sure addition didn’t overflow. I’m rather certain all modern C compilers will optimize that check out.

I've found this kind of pattern much nicer in an application context. Rust sort of has this going on with anyhow[1] for applications and thiserror[2] for libraries (or just writing your own Error type). [1]: https://crates.i

Definitely. At that point, they need to weigh the cost of migrating their existing project to a new platform, or to maintain the patches that will allow the old platform to have the flexibility they need. It's important to remember tha

I don't understand your argument about ecosystem being far more important. People ceasing use of any of the tools necessarily removes them from the ecosystem and community. They have no reason to care about those things.

Your fork isn't a significant amount of work, unless they've really threaded in the must-be-in-Elm-Kernel check throughout the entire compiler. Versus trying to rewrite your dependency in Elm rather than enabling importing JS, ena

What would they do? I'm not sure there's an actual threat to follow through on. They can't block a forked compiler from, for example, using official packages without close-sourcing their own compiler (to prevent it from bring

I’m sure the company will be able to suffer through the losses - and if it can’t, was it a viable business in the first place?

Since we're seeing business in a rent strike, I wonder how well a rent strike would work for the average citizen.

Anecdotally, I feel like my hands have changed to be slimmer after 3.5 years of estrogen, but I haven't taken any measurements and don't have detailed photos of my hands before/after.

Here you go: sort all files in the current directory by modification time, whitespace-in-filenames-safe. The `printf (od -> sed)' construction converts back out of null-separated characters into newline-separated, though feel free t

For plain old `text-gray-500`, they're pretty similar. One advantage that Tailwind has is screen sizes - you might write `flex items-center justify-between mobile:flex-col` for a row that turns into a column on smaller screens where th

I do this in production a few places by setting a div with no content or only absolutely position content to have padding-bottom of the aspect ratio in %. That gets calculated from the width, so if the image is 4:3 my ratio is 75%; 200px wi

You might consider changing overflow: scroll to overflow: auto so that on short bios it isn't forced to show scroll bars.
