If people wanted to use things like generics and metaprogramming with Hare, what's the solution? Write a transpiler, or just don't–use another language? I admire wanting to keep the language simple, but generics usually makes my p

One thing you do all the time on computers is moving your mouse. And 240hz doubles how smooth that is. Sounds boring, I know, but honestly the thing I love most out of my 280 monitor is how nice and snappy the mouse moves around. It's

After this change, the TypeScript compiler will now be compiled with esbuild. I feel like thats probably the best endorsement esbuild could get, hah. Surprising they call out the 2 space indent level that esbuild is hardcoded[1] to use as a

Here's some of the features I am looking forward to in JXL. Better lossy compression than JPG, similar compression to AVIF. AVIF ekes out a little more quality at the very low end, and JXL excels at the very high end. Better lossless

Hmm, on Windows 10 Chrome/Firefox the demos with the movable ears don't work very well when the position changes. Both browsers output horrible audio in those sections. edit: If I limit Firefox to 60fps (down from my display'

Dayjs is 2kb. That library is 70kb+. Dayjs has the familiar momentjs API. Both libraries have the greatest differentiating feature from moment: immutable objects. Being able to compose dayjs objects together without fear of modifying them a

Even though there's no consensus, there are a bunch of great metrics that are in use such as Butteraugli. I believe JPEG-XL uses it. In JXL the quality setting has been tuned especially well to give predictable speed/visual qualit

That sounds like the entire internet is unlawful. How would a German access any content outside of Germany without going through the tens-hundreds of intermediate routers? There's nothing stopping those routers from logging IPs going

Amazon/Netflix/Disney all provide 30+ subtitle tracks for every show, by the way. I don't think you should make any conclusions from the amount of subtitles. And besides, for all we know, they could be very bad.

For me, the explore page ALWAYS says I'm interested in the topic "vorbis audio" because of the 'topics that i follow' (I follow no topics), so that's a nice bug. 75% of the repos there never change for me. The

fwiw, I use github stars also as simple bookmark list, with about 100 stars. When one of my (quite obscure) repos get stars, I feel joy. I like to think starring someone else's repo has that same reaction for them, too.

I think there are a bunch of decent uses for that, like rich text editors (eg select text, hit ctrl-b, and the text is bolded). There are also some sites that popup a small box above your selection with a share box. Straight to hell with th

I feel like if you've selected some text, then pressing copy should always copy that text and nothing else. But then: what's to stop websites from detecting you've selected text, unselecting it, and copying the bad text in, a

From the chrome bug[0] it seems like this was changed to work without a gesture because the new tab page needs to copy text for a Google Doodle... So instead of changing their new tab page to require a gesture like all other sites... they d

Easy way around that is to use a CI service like GH Actions. Build it there, push it to dockerhub, and you're done. Have it run on a schedule to keep it updated, if necessary. Alternatively, GH Actions allows you to set a manual trigge

Interesting to see the responses here are mainly negative. I think email (and by extension, mail) is traditionally static because the medium never allowed for dynamic updates. I don't see the harm in trying to improve upon that. If a s

I made one for youtube that moves the seek bar below the video, instead of on top of the video. In addition it removes the gradient etc. I've always hated how it covered up the content. (pure css, but still)

Nice visualisation. The pedant in me hates that "zooming in" doesn't keep the point around your mouse stable, and there's no way to "drag" the background to move left and right.

It seems like bun caches the manifest responses. PNPM, for example, resolves all package versions when installing (without a lockfile), which is slower. The registry does have a 300 second cache time, so not faulting you there, but it means
