Have you explored Arcadia at all? It uses the Clojure CLR port to hook into Unity with some sweet repl goodness. https://github.com/arcadia-unity/arcadia There seems to be some act…

By a fun coincidence, I stumbled on the r/roguelikedev subreddit this weekend and they are just today starting a "how to make a roguelike" read through. (It is a different tutorial…

I'm curious how the new Github Sponsors development plays into the one or very few maintainer "issue." My gut instinct tells me it will be an added incentive to keep the governance…

https://web.archive.org/web/20110926012139/http://insertcred... Haven't read it yet and not too sure how to use the Internet Archive but this seems to be it's first capture of the …

The author seems to have taken this desire into consideration too but I don't think he has figured out the way he wants to solve it. I did find this: https://github.com/pim-book/ex…

You might just like this short story I read in Wired a while back: https://www.wired.com/2016/12/jon-rogers-a-martian-goes-hunt...

I'm so impressed it can just be launched with the Clojure cli tools (not sure if I'm phrasing that correctly). Very cool project. I've recently admitted to myself I don't actually …

Your comment reminded me of this quote even though it might not entirely fit the topic at hand: "I must study Politicks and War that my sons may have liberty to study Mathematicks …

ChromeOS has this feature for chromebooks now as well under the experimental flags section in case those users miss f.lux too. You can go to chrome://flags and search for Night Lig…

Well they do have A mapped to Z and B mapped to X which makes sense I guess but is flip flopped positioning from what the original NES controller was if I recall correctly. You mig…

That was the first thing I tried! And it worked! Cool project.

I also like this free HTML5 (and EPUB3) version as well. It just feels really clean. https://github.com/sarabander/sicp http://sarabander.github.io/sicp/html/index.xhtml

Fair enough, you both make good points. I have been exploring how to make a simple living off one's creations and trying to fight my own cynicism on all the seeming trade offs. Rig…

I agree that subscription fatigue is a problem and most will opt out but I feel you are projecting too much malice onto the developers in your last sentence. Why does asking for th…

I'm still beating the drums that the mid range chromebooks are the best Linux computer deals around. Take a look at something like the Asus C302 (and it won't come with the bloatwa…

Some of my pessimism is not just with Microsoft, itself, even though I do have that. I think an argument can be made that we should not want all the decent software companies to be…

Yes, I am new to all of this so I see the electron hate because of the resource usage but then never see any meaningful discussion on what people would rather be used. It seems to …

I think this might be close to what you are thinking about: https://www.sbnation.com/a/17776-football I'm hoping your post gets more responses too because it is an area of storytel…

I'm curious what you folks think of things like Racket and it's ability to create DSLs for various problem spaces. This seems like it would let you stay in one language yet have th…

I'm in full support of net neutrality (as it seems everyone but the telecom companies is yet here we are, but I digress) but I like to think if this "doomsday" scenario were to hap…

I'm on the side of why don't you just let Evan do his thing? Maybe a big part of why Elm is kind of really awesome already is because it's being developed differently. Just let a c…

I'm glad to see this at the top. I do wish though that more Electron threads on here and r/programming would talk about the actual developments happening instead of the constant me…

I actually enjoyed reading the different attempts at finding the right pricing. I was a happy premium subscriber and an even happier free user. I found it the best service to be ab…

The "in case" part is what I don't understand. This wording from Coinbase also makes it seem like things are still up in the air. August 1st is in a few days! How can there still b…
