One can only assume the system that updates the status page is down.

Nope. Not CTRL+Z/X/C/V.

I'm curious as to what you've worked on in your career? I mainly ask because we are 100% Django/Flask. :)

Maybe it’s not such a great thing that we all have an equal voice.

In my search for a senior Python developer I have encountered dozens and dozens of resumes whose Python experience consists almost exclusively of Numpy and data entry. Not at all the skill set I’m looking for.

I’m a very happy GCP user. Cloud Functions are ass but Cloud Run is amazing, and as far as Python versions go, if you can make a Docker image of it you can use Cloud Run. Scale to zero. Automatic load balancing. Any Docker image. Yes please

You can’t just hand wave away the benefits of the ctrl-z/x/c/v which cannot be remapped. Each of these incredibly common and useful shortcuts must be fully abandoned or used with both hands in Dvorak, causing the right hand t

Hard disagree to “Just use Dvorak”. The most common keyboard shortcuts all require two hands in Dvorak meaning that if you’re used to ctrl-c/v, you must remove your hand from the mouse for each one. Colemak fixes this issue completely

This is Colemak’s killer feature. Changed my life

The solution is as obvious as it is effective: take our voices off of the internet. Only face to face can possibly matter or be trusted. Yes, it will slow down the pace at which we hurl ourselves into technological nihilism. But that’s a go

My comment contained some snark. I’m just tired of the “both sides” that even your comment is full of. Social media preys upon inherent weaknesses in the human psyche because humans were never meant to be this connected and we lack the ment

Social media is cancer. Full stop.

The problem is that we don’t want to die. That instinct can be ruthless, even when it doesn’t make sense.

Parties are the result of social interaction, not the cause of it.

I _hate_ time travel in movies unless the movie is only about time travel. It's such a cop-out. Can't figure out how do to it? Just use time travel! But the rest of your comment I agree with.

We didn't lose it, so much as we gave it away when we had the opportunity. The choice provided by the Internet -> streaming dissolved that glue as each of us chose what to watch according to our own preference. I think there is a la

Parents in walkable cities also want extracurriculars for their children. It's the suburb that makes the shuttling to/from required. Sidewalks are illegal for cycling, and even if a stroad had a shoulder, the vehicle speeds make i

Right? Because that’s totally why Firefox’s market share has gone down and is not at all related to a billion dollar corporation ruthlessly and relentlessly pushing its competitor…

I’ll always upvote a Colemak user. Looks nice!

by wussboy 4y ago
Fully agreed. Suburbs are a disaster for families. I spend hours every day driving my kids to school and activities because there is no where they can safely walk (no sidewalks! high-speed car traffic!) and nothing within range of walking (

I heard they have pipes that big at the Liverpool cathedral, but they only use them when the Queen was there, as they are literally wrecking the cathedral.

I think one of the original use cases for stilts was the increase in speed. Was it 250% though?

Great link. Watched the whole thing! Fascinating!

by wussboy 4y ago
I won't argue that it wasn't possible. But that link shows 20-40 books, and covers 3000 years of human culture. That's about one anonymous book per century. I think we need more anonymity than that. But I think the amount of

Perhaps. But if you consider: 1. The cost of printing/transcribing something 2. Literacy rates 3. Constraints tied to physical distribution ...the reach of that potentially "anonymous speech" was the tiniest fraction of what
