Don't forget AdvJam 2018 (or other years) which have dozens of small games that actually are excellent. Favourite game is Spy Quest which emulates Sierra games of old. You can get AdvJam walkthrough videos on YouTube.
For legal / "ethical" reasons, I'd try this on dogs, horses, or some other domesticated mammal first. You're not trying to engineer humanity; no, you just want to reverse the degradation of pure breed subspecies.

> ” The thing is, that has nothing to do with open source, it's always project-specific, so the full post largely doesn't make any sense as a comment on open source.”

I think that’s exactly the point he’s making. To phrase it another way, open source is orthogonal to the relationship between the stewards and the community.
R12 isn't the only refrigerant though
I didn’t downvote you but the issue is definitely your phrasing (“disgusting”).

It took me all of 3 seconds to fall in love with Tailscale, but I think I agree with your point. This is a place of knowledge and curiosity, so digging into stuff and setting it up yourself is definitely to be commended.

For me, I just want a solution that works and I simply don’t have the cycles to spend on this specific problem. Happy to outsource, nothing disgusting about that.
The second, widest menu can be hidden (and keeps hidden) just with a single click.
What? You actually replied to a guy who said that people can already choose the potency.

I am in agreement with that. If they voluntarily pick the higher potency for their first time, let them experience how shitty it can be.
Germany and France got nothing but flak for trying to moderate the sanctions exactly for the reasons you stated. I feel like you are misplacing that particular blame.
I personally am curious to find out if what you are doing might amount to a generally useful paradigm, but you’re understandably getting some criticism because your work seems a little unconcerned about connecting with the rest of the world, and there appear to be things like personality and hubris at play.

I watched your video “farting around” and saw the mini language and the different terminals, but I still have no idea how that plus all the rhetoric in your blog post amount to something that people might want to use to solve real problems. Have you just connected up a bunch of concepts in your head and assumed that they are world changing? Would you be able to write documentation and examples explaining how people might use these concepts to solve actual problems?

It takes a certain kind of person, independently minded, to go so far down a rabbit hole and not care what people invested in the status quo (the overwhelming majority in tech) might think. And, since I’m also prone to this “style” of working, and also aware of how it interplays with personality, I’ve thought about it quite a bit, and my conclusion is that it’s potentially high reward in terms of innovation but it’s also high risk in terms of actually amounting to something.

It’s hard in tech, because if you were a visual artist your style of work would be rewarded as interesting and provocative but in tech it all has to make some kind of sense and guh can’t have any fun god forbid… it’s almost like we’ve been brainwashed… there’s not a lot of room for concept art in technical architecture (unfortunately).
Multiple people I know rec'd this.
He is clearly responding to people who have a misunderstanding of what open source is, so you cannot blame him for correcting the wrong understanding as if he is the one who defined open source to include these additional expectations that go beyond the license. He is merely pointing out how the way he runs his project is also in accordance with the license.
It's quite common that crypto currencies have an almost religious following nowadays, but she was one of the first. Where bitcoin was propagated by tech savvy people, One Coin collected money from average Joes. They took the term 'crypto-queen' to the 'real-world'.

We _can_, but will we? We're not fated to discover new resources to sustain ourselves. Fracking opened up new oil reserves, for sure, but that didn't mean that the concern wasn't valid.

That's superstition / survivor bias.

Minecraft has a couple of different ways that crafting is done:

1) the original way where you have a grid that you can put items/crafting materials on. If you put particular materials on the grid in the pattern for an item, it will give you the option of taking that item at the expense of the ingrediants
2) when they ported to consoles, they made it with a recipe book, where you choose what you want to make and creation just happens if you can - no need to remember patterns, no need to move items into the pattern. The recipe book shows things that you have some of the ingredients of, and has colour coded backgrounds for all the ingredients or just some.

Either way you craft things that the game already knows about. Building things in the world is different - you just place blocks or items where you want them. I'm not sure how that relates to programming. I can't say I really understood the article.
Was going to mention this. For example, I see HN posts via Feedly. But after each fetch for "new" articles, the most recent ones it shows me from HN are from an hour ago at least. For some other websites it pulls their "most recent" content from the previous day.
I mean, If you want to be pedantic you could define poverty in such a relative way that we’re all poor compared to Musk and Bezos. But I think you’d be surprised how much you have to inflate the definition of poverty to still fit 1.5 billion people into it. It’d certainly be the richest definition of poverty the world’s ever seen, with the lowest numbers of starvation, malnutrition, infant mortality, etc
I started out building websites as a hobby in about 1996 and somewhat professionally in about 2001. I’ve worked on many different web projects over the years, using various different platforms, frameworks and libraries. After 20-25 years in the game, it’s really only been in the past 3-4 years I’ve really felt like I’ve known what I’m doing. Even now stuff still throws me.

So, don’t be discouraged. Don’t think you’re stupid/incompetent for not knowing everything yet. It really can take a long time to understand how all the parts of the stack work together.

Aside from continuing to improve your craft, think about how you can improve your relationships with your colleagues so they become more supportive, or consider leaving and finding a workplace that is more nurturing to less experienced team members. Such places do exist and it’s worth making the effort to find a workplace where you feel supported and valued.

Good luck to you.
For those in the Apple ecosystem I recommend NetNewsWire. It can sync with iCloud without needing any extra services. I use it on my Macs, iPads and iPhone.

(I'm not affiliated with them, just a happy user)
Sounds like a very US specific problem to me.
> it's about clojure and open source

No, it's about Clojure. It's not in any way about open source. Software can be open source no matter how the person writing it runs their projects.
I’ve been very happy with https://feedbin.com

It’s a paid RSS syncing service and web app too, costs $5 per month, I use it with Reeder (and NetNewsWire etc). It doesn’t have any social cruft or AI assistants or ML companions.

I was also a Feedly user when I decided to try Feedbin, and I immediately noticed how much faster fetching the feeds was on Feedbin. I also like to have my email newsletters in same place (forward them to a Feedbin-provided email address), and I can have filters to mark things like sponsored posts and podcast show notes as read automatically, basically like mute filters.

Feedly premium tier costs pretty much the same, and I wonder how well it would stack against Feedbin. There’s also Inoreader which I think offers pretty similar feature set for a pretty similar price.

Feedly free tier is excellent, and you can work around many of its shortcomings by using an RSS reader app. For example, Feedly free doesn’t offer full text articles, but I can extract the full text with Reeder/NetNewsWire/etc on the client-side. If you really don’t care about speed, mute filters, or reading newsletters in your RSS reader, then Feedly free tier is already more than enough.
> > Energy is not free. No, nuclear isn't either.

It was a response to that the only byproduct of desalination is sea salt. It's not (or it's a bad-faith misleading statement). You need to account for the energy you put in which has its own byproducts.

I had the same reaction, though for me I have a bunch more tshirts, most of which I didn’t pay for. I just keep two piles of shirts on my shelf. In the morning I take the top shirt off the “active” pile. Clean shirts from the laundry go on top of the other pile. When they wear out they go into the garage as rags.

Side note, I think cost per wear should factor in laundry costs. I suppose you could consider that just part of overhead if everything is just wash & wear, but it would come into play if you had anything that needed special treatment (suits to dry cleaners or something).
Is there an easy to use self hosted solution for this?

My biggest pet peeve with Feedly is that it doesn’t allow for filtering by keyword (which could be done on-device to save server resources if that’s a concern) without a monthly subscription that includes tons of things I don’t care about, like this AI thing and whatnot. I’d even pay a one time fee for this right. But forcing users to pay for something so simple in perpetuity seems ridiculous.
>Privacy is important precisely because after your data has been collected and stored, there is no telling where it will end up and what it will be used for.

This can't be overstated. It's like a hole in the wall that can't be patched.

I've lived most of my life expecting an Orwellian life. While it was grounded in paranoia, complete transparency is pretty much the only lowest-stress way to live when anyone can theoretically dox you over just about anything if the fashions pendulum swings hard enough in one direction.
These sort of mistakes are the kind of things you will laugh at a few years from now. E.g thinking your sending data to one location to only find your pointing to a totally different location. Learn, grow and accept even in later years you will still make similar type of mistakes.
Aah this reminds me of my early days in software development. One time i had to recompile qmail over and over with debug printfs just because i couldnt figure out why it didnt work. Spent two weeks on it. Turns out i had the wrong permissions on a directory. Felt like an idiot. Could have used strace or something better instead - or heck i could have the manual! I still feel like that when i pick a radically different to what i am used language. 7 years ago when i first tried Haskell i thought to my self: “bro can you even code? what am i even doing here?”.

Fast forward to today and i usually get a “feeling” about why things might not work, and dont even need to dig deep to figure out why, i just “know”. Thats called experience. Comes with time and practice. Gradually you develop a sense to why or how things should work, and thats why experience is valuable.

So give yourself time. And sleep - sleep sometimes lets your mind work on solutions, hence the expression “we’ll sleep on it”.
The "lite" version of this article is fantastic. What a breath of fresh air.
It took me literally a few seconds to find this:

https://www.theguardian.com/society/2015/feb/16/skunk-cannab...

'Smoking powerful skunk cannabis triples the risk of suffering a serious psychotic episode, scientists have found.'

'Those who reported smoking milder forms of the drug, such as hash, did not appear to be at increased risk, for instance. Murray said that, in line with this finding, he recommends hash to patients who are struggling to give up smoking altogether.'
Consider that she did it?

Seems an odd coincidence for it to be fwd to her number of all people.
Thank you for sharing. This is the first chapter from Todd Rose's excellent book The End of Average. In the book, he also touches on the fascinating topic of context. For example there is no such thing as a person's average level of aggression - IF I am around my parents I tend to get aggressive, but IF I am around friends and strangers I am calm.

Any new tech deserves well-deserved criticism imo. It's the only way for devs to judge noise for signal

One real world example I am doing for a large customer is data integration across 10-20 large databases and APIs. Categories are ideal for this because they give you the adhoc interactivity of what you would get with SQL but when I am dealing with a bunch of different vendor databases, SQL is not an option. Plus I need to join against APIs and would rather use Typescript for that

A simple example of "crafting" is to resolve the database "connection" parameter to a routine. The problem with working w databases is that every query expects you to have established a connection first - and the minute you make a code change, you lose your database connection(s). This gets much harder when dealing with joins across 10-20 databases at the same time

Then what do you do w the results? Well, you probably want to cache them. This is where persistent memory comes in

My DB query results - regardless of the database - are usually a Typescript array - and I am not about to stuff them into another database. But I don't want to lose the array from memory every time I make a code change either. Persistent memory is a good place to stuff that array

I have CFS and to try and combat it I am experimenting with a low carb diet. This restriction takes a lot of thought out of meal prep as every meal is protein and veg/salad. Nothing gourmet required.

There are plenty of keto treats and zero calorie but tasty drinks (some based on just native plants) to scratch the sweet tooth itch.

It has been working well to quench a lot of CFS and also I am losing weight through better hunger regulation although that isn’t a primary goal (but I am overweight so it is not a problem).

Two burgers, sans bun, an egg and salad is super filling and like 500 calories or so.
I set it up 9 years ago and OPML import was not made obvious to me.

Or possibly: I think I was using NetNewsWire on desktop or something when I set it up, so maybe it was obvious but I wanted read-syncing between different platforms.

I was dating this one person who works in fashion. All my clothes are neutral basics, so I can just wear whatever on any given day and look similar but vaguely different. Said person picked up on my entire wardrobe once noticing I started recycling items, probably on date 6 or 7, and let me know hahah.

I guess some people have a knack for detail about such things.

Don’t change things. It’s not hard. Leave things alone. Be consistent.

Is this for use with a handheld computer-telephone?

I would love to see some kind of "about" page that explains a little more.

When I visit the page, I see three lovely pictures of espresso, a title at the top, a line that says, "one-on-one voicechat with random HN users", and a button that says "Start".

I love the espresso part!

This is my first thought too. The author sounds like they know FP by swallowing all kinds of info about it from articles around the net regardless of them being right or wrong.
I wish I could agree. Every aspect of pytest that I like (fixtures, plugins, etc.) is marred by a boneheaded move to make them autoloaded by default. Loading should be explicit/opt-in. It's dumv that if you pip install something that adds a new pytest plugin it'll automatically modify your runtime behavior. Some of the plugins are great (shoutout to pytest-socket), but it has the same issue flake8 has with the plugin ecosystem where the quality varies wildly.

I might be in the minority but I also find python's mock implementation awful. Mockito in Java is way better where you explicitly state which calls you expect and if you get an unexpected call it errors out.
I still don't get the love affair with CSS in JS. It defeats much of the purpose of CSS.

Also, my idea of a FE component is that of a class. A black box if you will. It the markup structure with the details as properties. Reusable because all properties are set from outide.

If you're hardcoding CSS within the "component" then it's not a component. And then having to effectively rebuild the entire app because a hardcoded bit of (Tailwind) CSS needed to he changed?? That's a step forward?

From a professional / career stand point I'm interested in React. But its model of thinking feels like 1999 in some ways.

> The thing is, that has nothing to do with open source, it's always project-specific, so the full post largely doesn't make any sense as a comment on open source.

That's how I read this article. He argues that it's a misconception that "open source" implies the entitlements that he rejects. There may be projects which offer such entitlements (though it's unlikely phrased like that), but other projects don't, and nobody should assume they are entitled to anything just because of the "open source" label -- beyond the rights guaranteed by the chosen license.

He argues for freedom. The programmers freedom to ignore anything beyond the license, and the users freedom to go choose a different project if they don't like the choices of some project. That's also what you are saying.

Please listen to this advice! I’ve managed hundreds of developers and i can tell you the difference between someone junior that we keep and someone we exit is substantially defined by how good they are at communicating their circumstances and allowing others to help. People make the mistake of assuming others are too busy or will be annoyed, it may seem that way but they would much rather you ask than not be productive.

Ask questions. Tell people where you’re at. Advocate for your own success and by all means, do not ever hide problems or the challenges you’re facing. If the team cannot support you when all you’re doing is being honest, that’s a problem I’d solve by finding a new team to work with.

I don't depend on external services and can process data as I want.
It's exactly that, thank you. The version I saw didn't change the scale when you move the slider which makes it easier to see what is going on, but I am pretty sure it must be earlier version of that chart.
In general, people often don't optimize for their average use case like commuting or going to the grocery store. They optimize for weekend recreation, buying lumber, the occasional long drive off the beaten path, etc. Some of it isn't entirely rational. But it's also the case that, for many of us, renting a car is a bit of a pain and it's often hard to depend on renting a more specialized vehicle if you need one. So if you're just going to own one vehicle, you tend to buy one for the 10-20% case, not the 80% case.
