I have spent a lot of time in the PL space and I just cannot wrap my head around the love of Racket. I absolutely love the innovation that comes out of the community though! The gr…

This depends on how you define ROI. Car infrastructure and lack of density reduces tax revenue for cities and strains infrastructure. There are other human benefits to reducing car…

Unless you are actively managing your own herd or actively hunting I don’t see how you are connecting to nature at the grocery store. People don’t care as long as it tastes good. T…

I always love seeing more done in the web component space. I think Lit has the no build process captured pretty well and they include things such as a router. I do prefer the style…

I'm curious what you prefer instead? I find that tools like Mermaid are pretty invaluable, especially when editing very large processes. Draw.io diagrams tend to get pretty unwield…

I have seen this thrown around a lot, but I do not think it is true anymore. V lang had a rough launch from what I can tell, with the author overselling and mistakenly underestimat…

I know this is a few days at this point but Bolero has been in active development. All development work was done on the now deleted streamrendering and v0.24 branches. Version 0.24…

If it allows for alternative design patterns that are simpler then I think it's a win in the end. For example pattern matching is great when writer parsers as an alternative to goi…

I have been dabbling with F# for scripts as well. The F# REPL (FSI) and .fsx files make it really easy to hammer something out and share.

I also found Superset unintuitive to use and setup as well. I settled on standing up Metabase because it was so simple to get started with trying it since it can be launched as a s…

It doesn’t really answer your question, but DConf was a fews ago and there are a lot of interesting talks there: https://dconf.org/2023/index.html The recordings are on YouTube wit…

I started evaluating Defold this past weekend and I have been very impressed. The developer experience is very similar to Godot, especially if you work on your scripts with externa…

That is wild, thanks for sharing the soundcloud link!

Very cool stuff, thank you for your hard work on Emmy!

Clerk has some pretty detailed documentation that is worth looking over: https://book.clerk.vision Emmy and Clojure2d have also adopted clerk for their docs with impressive results…

I don't really think anyone is copying anyone here. This is a popular feature for browsers that has been around for over a decade. Orion[1] is another recent MacOS browser that rel…

I guess it depends on how much bulk you are buying at once, but most bikes are compatible with a basket of some kind. A bike trailer could also be an option. In the Netherlands you…

You may be confusing MiniLED and MicroLED. MiniLED still uses an LCD with multiple backlights and local dimming algorithms to improve contrast. MiniLED is pretty impressive and the…

Haxe’s development is fairly active. You can see 41 PRs were merged, an additional 13 more were opened and 125 issues were closed in the last month: https://github.com/HaxeFoundati…

I really love Haxe. A truly multi-paradigm language with good support for GADTs, OOP, structural and nominal types, lambdas, and a lot of practical sugar on top. The macro system a…

You can make some pretty robust stuff with Scratch. User griffpatch has made a lot of advanced stuff here: https://scratch.mit.edu/users/griffpatch/ He has a youtube series too abo…

After having the Steamdeck, I switched to OpenSUSE tumbleweed with KDE along with my brother at the start of February. We are both moved our gaming machines over from Windows and i…

This is correct, these pricing changes are only regarding enterprise licenses for Oracles specific build of Java. Builds of openjdk are free to use and the Eclipse foundation provi…

My preferred distribution for emacs on macos is: https://github.com/d12frosted/homebrew-emacs-plus It's well documented and supported, I highly recommend it!

People do not need to be productive 100% of the time. Let people have fun without shaming them. Just think of how far science and technology has come in the last decade.
