    The key is preparation. It’s the same for me at hotel check-ins. I’m always prepared, I have all my info available in my mobile or on paper, I’ve already thought about the trip sev…

    The problem is, it doesn’t look anything like the system UI either. Just because it is using a native toolkit doesn’t mean it automatically looks good or integrates well.

    Not really. There is an “unmaintained” paid plug-in (unmaintained in the sense of not being updated since a year and advertising compatibility with Sublime 2 and 3 only).

    In Europe it usually is, until proven otherwise. At least in the first year (and for some classes of problems, longer).

    It’s not the only risk. What if OP had fallen asleep while listening to music? Then there would have been a real risk of the house burning down.

    It’s also quite ironic because they seem to claim that because their page is full of tracking cookies (what other reason to cite GDPR?).

    Here’s an example of how to enable caching in GitHub Actions: https://gist.github.com/eproxus/d74315864fd6897bb47741e8de5b... The example is a bit Erlang specific but the cache act…

    - 'parent' goes to the comment that is replied to - 'prev' / 'next' goes to the adjacent sibling comments - 'root' goes to the top level comment in the thread (not the post) They a…

    It’s a bit unclear, but I read it as that they thought not many people outside the US is aware of the bias inside the US.

    I wonder what legal ramifications would be if you run them over while they’re on a pedestrian crossing. They probably wouldn’t count as human at least? Destruction of property?

    > They will when they're threatened by a gang of police officers. At least that's better than normal people having to put up with that and pay for it. Now on to solve the next prob…

    Raycast has this neat feature called Navigation → Search Menu Items which is essentially the Help → Search feature of macOS. However, you can bind it to any shortcut, so binding it…

    I’m in the same boat. I’d rather have more views than longer lines. Currently have a file tree, three editor columns and one terminal column. Keeping to a shorter line width makes …

    Nerves (or Erlang’s VM BEAM) is nowhere near small enough to run on ESP32. I think a comparison is not very useful. If you have an ESP32 you need something like Toit, if you have a…

    Here's my version for Windows. It keeps the window buttons and removes the empty space on top. https://gist.github.com/eproxus/f95c2d2bd0f9b8f5d2b6f464e27c...

    Actually, that would almost approach some "real" value for NFTs... Let's say you have digital artwork in a lossless format. You then take the world by storm with the compressed ver…

    That's also the beauty of Fast.com, that it uses the Netflix content servers as benchmark and not some ISP edge hosted Speedtest server with special priority. That gives a more rea…

    I do the same nowadays. I spend extra time learning the defaults (muscle memory etc.) in my OS and programs, which is about the same effort as customizing them (if not less). The d…

    Couldn’t #2 shaders be compiled once and shared between users? A game could compile them on first run, submit them to a server with a unique hash of the OS, driver and shader versi…

    Sublime Text has a Distraction Free Mode which goes to full screen, removes all GUI and centers the buffer contents on the screen. It’ll use your buffer settings so if you’ve confi…
