Hi HN, I'm looking for feedback on my distributed log db project. It's a part I pulled out of a stochastic time tracking system that we are building. I think it's a neat idea and h…

Nice project! I really like the small and elegant syntax. Any plans for macro support in Dern?

I guess there are somethings you just have to let go off. I'm sorry man - I know it must have been hard. I hope it's getting better everyday.

That's an excellent point. The only place the library has access to the private keys are during account creation and message signing. Perhaps I should implement both directly in th…

Yep - that's exactly been my experience. (off-topic) Org mode is really amazing. I've transitioned almost completely from Emacs to Vim over the last few years but I still have Emac…

Nim is a great little language - it is enjoyable to work in and small enough to learn easily. It's neat for little utility programs that are "too big for bash" and "too small for j…

What roles are you applying for? Perhaps there are other roles you would be a better fit for and you could try applying for those. Otherwise, as others say, just be persistent. Som…

I have so many things that I need a system to keep me productive. Plus, it's fun to get things done and be confident in not having missed anything important. Productivity is about …
