recovery features? how do they work? and what smalltalk runtime do you have in mind? I still have a very vague understanding on how changes could be applied to a production running…

I wonder what apple will do with returned devices. Are they actually refurbishable, on average, to a condition that's resellable, or will they go straight to recycling just to keep…

derailing further, it's no organized political movement, and they don't call it immoral but in Caucasus region some men avoid using seat belts as "unmanly", and that's a very socia…

Nice. When I saw some javascript live music arrangement experiments, I thought that forth is syntactically better for that task because of postfix notation - no need to select and …

huh. I wonder if it's possible to use those hooks to add syntax highlighting to shell commands claude issues, or to replace full path to current directory with ./

now, let's combine both.

even if black sea deluge happened sufficiently rapidly, you're several thousands years off. Current theories date it to about 8 thousand years ago.

unless you're spawning them for new connections.

yay, horse vomit.

yes, ruby inherited this from perl, though 'or' has lower precedence than 'and' in perl, and they're equal in ruby. Which sounds like something going to cause mistakes, but I yet t…

nowadays you can vibecode some half-ass headless browser automation using your email-password or even weird corporate sso.

but why solar system is so out of scale?

git's mental model is very, very small, if you care to learn it. Then all the commands and their "inconsistencies" start to make sense - they operate on the model almost without an…

contactless ATMs

I've tried to come up with the reason they don't do it, and thought MAYBE they were afraid people would put PINs for the cards there and they thought it's a bad idea. I wonder why …

good for you and your particular bank.

give me ability to write a damn whatever on the card. My bank provides USD, EUR and other currencies on different cards with exact same cover. Maddening. I can imagine that we don'…

which is much better than nothing, but is a fairly recent addition

huh, I've never thought to check my github id. I don't remember myself being an early adopter.

i think it is the other way around. Git is pretty simple internally, and its ui is just knobs and levers to reach into that simple reliable internal structure. This is why for some…

huh. I just did what you describe above (on tahoma) and was able to tab into the list of bluetooth devices, no problem. do you have "Settings > Keyboard > Keyboard navigation" on? …
