About creativeembassy
I'm currently working at Zipline as a senior web engineer. (https://getzipline.com/)
I'm a frequent open source contributor, a robotics instructor and father of two (who I have also taught to code!) I love the practice of software craftsmanship, and I strive to amaze every client I work with.

This brings back memories. Buzz is how I got my start. And I've been producing electronic music as a hobbyist ever since.

(Kidding OFC. But I _would_ watch a 1 hour video essay on the history of alternative LOD systems.)

Less "unfair" IMHO, and more apples-vs-oranges. FWIW, the javascript side of Rails is historically the least settled-upon part of the framework. I'm curious how many current Rails …

Hard disagree. "More discussions once more opinionated developers join" is universally true regardless of which frameworks/philosophies you start with. The point of convention bein…

This is my #1 complaint with our new Model Y. The "Auto" setting is completely worthless. It almost never turns on when it's raining. When it does turn on, it's either too fast or …

I can't wait to try this out. I have a plugin installed now but table editing is still clunky. Decent first-party support of md tables is huge (for me) if true.

There are a number of Obsidian plugins that will automatically convert your notes into an actual website. I don't use any but I know they exist. (I don't use them _yet_, I have a f…

The article addresses this. > Just one year ago, Tim Cook had this to say about RCS: "I don't hear our users asking that we put a lot of energy in on that at this point. […] Buy yo…

Personal experience: Bun has been a flawless drop-in replacement for both NodeJS and npm/yarn since I started using it around v0.4. Not only have I had zero issues running it, but …

I wasn't familiar with BQN. Clicked through, reminded me of APL. "OH", I thought, "I see how you came up with the name." There was a (disproven) urban legend about Arthur C. Clarke…

I wonder if this was an inspiration to the "Devs" miniseries. Won't say more about it for fear of ruining it. Amazing show.

If anyone else is interested in learning it, I'm getting back into it via Duolingo and that's working well for me so far.

I keep looking at Eames replicas, wondering if that's an acceptable trade-off in quality. I also REALLY want an Eames. And I can afford a replica. (Not all knockoffs are of dubious…

The understanding of context here is maybe the most "hidden" feature, but the most impressive to me, because it's something that's still not commonplace in today's technology. For …

I ended up getting a Dirtywave M8, but the Deluge was a VERY close second. If I ever get tired of the M8, I still have my eye on a Deluge.

Each of your two eyes only sees a 2d image, and your brain combining this information is what gives you depth. I'd say it's holographic in that each eye receives different informat…
