Disc Golf holding steady I suspect.

I spent a little time ~2012 trying to think how to create a system like this that would work with iPhones at burning man. Never really got anywhere with the idea, but I’m excited t…

I have three maxims that basically power all my decisions as an engineer: 1. The three C’s: Clarity always, Consistency with determination, Concision when prudent. 2. Keep the pain…

It can be all of the above.

Somewhat related, I feel like the book Thinking in Systems should be taught in high school https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/3828902

Tangent, but since there are mentions of history books in these comments, I highly recommend Ted Nelson’s autobiography. https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/10673124

You should really do some research on this. Good luck on your journey.

Wow. Great idea and overall goal, but I’m disappointed in some of the placement choices. Tests very much in particular deserve more weight. Being DRY is nowhere on the same level a…

Commenter actually read the article before commenting, like a n00b. It brings up social media and income: "Various studies around the world have proposed different explanations, su…

#Summle #7: 3/5 = = = I like it. Some UX tweaks would be nice, maybe an undo, a clear all, and perhaps some helpful focus shifting (of which tile is being intended for a click) dep…

The moat won’t work as well as you probably think. A lot of the problem comes from the sky raining down embers on flammable roofs and such...

Would be great to have a citation on this

I also immediately think of the Brunner book

I’d really love a post that just analyzed this take.

ah, yes! hoodwink.d rings a bell

I have same problem. It’s 100% with Slack (and I suspected because Electron) but only occasional with Zoom and rarely with Firefox.

I'm pretty sure it was _why who set up the first darknet I was ever on. You had to set up your /etc/hosts and do some other tricks, to browse to hidden pages. Unless I'm confusing …

Sir Peter Venkman: "He slimed me. I feel so funky"

This claim of first is not true at all. The Ruby community did all this at least a decade before Go existed, and I imagine there are other examples.

Have not. Never heard of the Vala programming language before either. It does not seem to be a particularly popular application so definitely the kind where I would read the source…
