In the QuickJS github repo there are commits from Charlie Gordon's github profile, https://github.com/chqrlie

I think most of the complaints about moment are that it's really big (because of i18n and timezones). Obsidian isn't a web page/app, so it doesn't need to optimize bundle size too …

The Gobi desert and the bottom of the ocean are far more hospitable for human colonization than anywhere off-planet (not to mention far, far cheaper and more energy-efficient)

I've worked in Bioinformatics companies for over 20 years, so a big chunk of my programming career was working with Perl, and I've loved, used and advocated for Mojolicious since I…

Use the debugger: `python -mpdb` is a very similar experience to `perl -d`, so much so that it feels like a gift from an earlier perl-to-python emigrant. (I showed my co-workers `p…

It is specific to this page, and I suspect it is intended for stylistic effect, since he is discussing speech-recognition software. BTW, scroll left on the header graphic!

You seem to be unfamiliar with the idea of a *personal web site*. Hosted on one's own domain, hosting whatever content one chooses to throw up on a server, intended primarily for o…

I like the line > i was low on narrative and cash.

But these just close the current window, not the entire program

My favorite Win32 tutorial is by Bartosz Milewski, I found it as a series of posts on his CodeCoop website ( https://web.archive.org/web/20110129015721/http://www.codeco... ), that…

You seem to be mixing up GNU's GPL (GNU Public License) with the OGL (Open Gaming License) from Wizards of the Coast. Roleplayer?

The rough equivalents in the Perl ecosystem would be cpanm (for installing), carton (for managing project-specific dependencies), and perlbrew or plenv (which I think are more like…

I think The Onion already said it better: ["Find The Thing You're Most Passionate About, Then Do It On Nights And Weekends For The Rest Of Your Life"]( https://www.theonion.com/fin…

Take it down another decade. Or two. There are versions of Old/Super/Hyper in libraries and frameworks for Java, Perl, Python... Once you get the Internet, the hype cycle keeps spe…

I believe you're thinking of Final Draft.

PAAMAYIM_NEKUDOTAYIM isn't an acronym, it's Hebrew for "two dots twice", ie, :: (double colon) I think the two Israeli guys who wrote the first PHP runtime used it either as a priv…

Ubuntu unity, conspicuously absent from your list, was my gateway into mac OSX. All the adjustments made me think I may as well use the original UI canonical were emulating. Unity'…

Storing things in the URL only got you so far (Internet Explorer would eventually complain about the request string being too long), so ASP.Net or whatever would bundle the entire …

Waiting for the launcher (Alt-F2 or whatever) to become responsive so I could launch an app (davmail) after rebooting. Whenever I reboot, which is fairly often (every time the soft…
