My take on the prime example: import itertools def generate_n_primes(n): """ Generate n prime numbers using a modified Sieve of Eratosthenes. The algorithm keeps track of a list of…

I'd be willing to bet that the majority of results you find in that search will be men talking about how much women care about money... of course some women do, but far far from al…

Beneath the large obvious green 'Subscribe' button there is some low-contrast grey text ('Continue reading') that, when clicked, hides the box. This is on Substack's side, not the …

No worries, worth a try!

I did this initially, but I believe it didn't work for all applications - some were still registering it as Caps Lock (e.g. VS Code IIRC).

Workman [0] was designed to be used on an ortho keyboard, though it is also usable on a normal keyboard. I suppose it's tricky to design for many modern features as they are not ye…

I use Colemak-DH (modified version of Colemak that has less lateral hand motion - found I was getting slight wrist strain with normal Colemak). I find it more comfortable than Qwer…

Ah I see. So non-kernel packages do not have access to native modules at all? I believe in Elm native modules were still possible, just not publishing them to the package database.…

Correct me if I'm wrong, but that code seemingly only applies to kernel packages, i.e. packages which are made by the gren team [1] Seems more like a check to make sure the version…

Presumably it came from Latin 'puppis' (aft, stern, poop deck) before the passing through French to English.

I like this a lot. This is built upon Vosk [0], open source voice recognition. I must try it for some of my own projects! [0] https://alphacephei.com/vosk/

It looks like they have a word (or multiple) for each letter of the alphabet. So CD is "change drum", git clone is " guest ice traps space cap look [Ctrl right - autocomplete]", wh…

Looks pretty. I can't scroll on the gallery page on mobile, and tapping anywhere on the page (including the top example) just brings up the navigation menu. Switching to desktop mo…

I use Colemak DH, and have done for a few years. I could never touch type very well on QWERTY anyway so using QWERTY I am no slower than I was originally (in fact, I'm probably fas…

I've been working on some version of this since May 2019. It is a web app that allows writing out music for the Highland bagpipe. While it uses the same notation as normal music, b…

For the last point, you can wrap the object in parens: let generatePerson = name => ({ name, id: generateId() })

Brendan Eich - wasn't banned per se, but resigned as CEO of Mozilla after it came to light he'd donated to a cause supporting the ban of same-sex marriage. This is all on Wikipedia…

Lichess has a 'fishnet' of donated servers [0] that allow you to analyse using Stockfish on proper hardware. You can have up to 20 deep analyses a day. The web client uses Stockfis…

I wouldn't really call Orcish / Dwarvish 'full languages' - they aren't developed that much. However, the two major Elvish languages (Quenya and Sindarin) are both a lot fuller.
