Is this a bot? I feel like HN is dying (for me at least) with all the em-dashes and the "it's not just X, it's Z".

Why does it produce different ticks and em-dashes?

I feel like redux-saga [0] also belongs on that list of algebraic effects - at least as an honorable mention. [0]: https://redux-saga.js.org/

In Rick voice: Well, that just sounds like generators with extra steps..

A bit on the side: Stream processing of data is nicer using a declarative approach. Though I've found that describing control flow is often more intuitive using an imperative appro…

I feel you - Python has much better (more flexible) argument support than JavaScript in this case. Converting the entire set of arguments into a keyed object is usually what happen…

Edit: Great work! I'd love to have a nice alternative to PyTorch in JavaScript :) Edit: formatting Making JavaScript look like Python in this case could potentially bite you in the…

It also helps to use the default resolution to avoid supersampling/anti-aliasing effects.

I had the exact same issue and spent a lot of time figuring out why this was a problem for me, as I would alter between my old 15 inch and new 16 inch and feel the difference each …

CRT monitors made things look so much more vivid than on LCD. So when you look at old games today and think «Did it really look this bad and pixelated?», the answer is actually «no…

Another lefty here - same issue. Did the pre-order long ago. I’m back to pen and paper as I could not tolerate it. It would be great if it was possible to calibrate it somehow, by …

How much of the insulin is used for type 1 vs type 2?

That might not all be attributed to nostalgia. CRT displays actually make things look more hi-res and «depthy» [0]. We’ve barely caught up with 4/8K and OLED. This is why CRTs are …

Hooks are both a blessing and a curse. The most telling difference after starting to use hooks when working with both junior developers and more seasoned ones is that code that see…

Are you sure it’s 16GB RAM? I maxed out mine and only have 8GB.

Hit the gym. Increase Testosterone/DHT.

If you don’t feel anything - are you really living? Look up emotional bluntness and anhedonia.

Lifting weight increases androgens (testosterone/dht) which seem to have very positive effects when it comes to alleviating depressive symptoms. [1] - https://jamanetwork.com/journ…

That should not necessarily be attributed to increasing serotonin though. Sunlight increases a lot of things - endorphins, hormones, nitric oxide, etc.

So many people (including doctors) seem to be set on the idea that serotonin makes you happy and therefore is the solution to depression. This is only half true, and not in the way…

I am the same. It seems like when your body doesn't have to spend energy/overhead on keeping your temperature up it can make it all available to your brain.

Just popped into my mind as I recently saw a documentary about him.

As nhpatt notes you're not actually calling obj.method here, you're passing it as an argument, which will be called at a later time. Looking at a possible implementation of setTime…
