“We all agreed to breathe harder when talking about it, and you have no right of vote here”. That’s how I perceive this art thing. It often is objective, but it’s always amplified 100x+ by some heavy breath and tonal attitude. General subje

Of course it’s therapy. He should find a good non-rich CBT therapist (just for the sake of not falling prey of rich-man-wive’s leeches type) and start asking questions on why he’s not at ease with the success. Something sabotages it, and th

This is another good example of people writing the problem off to social without even trying something more sophisticated than a counter: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=42578134 The amount of trivial self-defeating

I can imagine access to raw data instead of some stupid come-on-game-me-able predefined indicator, and that I can run some private statistical analysis over it. People would use (and share) different algorithms and gamers will at least wand

That saying said, people often wrongly call technical problems social, being blind to obvious technical flaws that drive users into various directions. They attribute it to some inherent user property when in reality it’s a technical nuance

Ready to use (or buy/download) controls in appdev usually pack some ui wisdom into themselves for free, borrowing most of it from the base system. Webdev is constant reinvention of a wheel in all sorts of wrong ways, with “components”

I wasn't aware this had more or less landed. That’s usually a sign nobody uses it because it has at least one large issue. Personally I stopped falling for “there’s now X” advices long ago because if it worked, it would already be ma

The proper way is to use /usr/bin/cdecl or https://cdecl.org and extract as many typedefs as reasonable from the gibberish, because in C most of the times you’ll need these anyway to address lifetimes and ownershi

I thought about it too (layman). When I learned about embeddings it almost immediately clicked as a sort of an ascended language, not sure why no one seems to talk about it. Exchanging embeddings must be so much “wider” communication channe

That’s only formally a choice. In reality, you’ll depend on some delivery system (among many other systems) that is a part of some build/dev system that is a part of a job market conjuncture. And all of that is completely out of your c

When something complex exists it’s usually because alternatives are worse. Would you have less issues with 10MB updates? 1MB? One megabyte is a lot of text, a good novel for a week of evening reading can be less than that.

That’s the issue with these “semantic” color schemes, high complexity with (maybe subjectively) low value. Look at this.name(), is it a variable, a property, a method, a bird, a plane? Who could tell without that lighten(resaturate(green, -

Antennagate didn’t affect everyone though, only those 90s businessman nokia-in-fist style holders. Anecdata ofc, but everyone I know already held phones in fingers back then, rather than hugging it as a brick.

The problem is, if we are talking about Lua API, typically you are on the other side of “embedded in another project”, as an embedder. My reply shortly above goes into some details. (from elsewhere) It is a low-level API for creating bindi
