To add to this, I've been a happy user of the trash-cli for forever. Can recommend.

Building a floorplan format which should be convertible to a visual SVG and back. Wondering if defining my own schema to represent the layout of a venue is a good idea or not or if…

It has, with services such as Apples Air Drop and sharedrop.io which are p2p, the ultimate decentralization.

Having stumbled upon Git Flow and the wonders of monorepos, I do wonder how to best implement a Git Flow like branching strategy for the monorepo. Branching fundamentally seems to …

Why do you prefer Capybara style testing to the Gherkin style testing? Is it primarily the conciseness?

Interesting, I'll check it out. One of the arguments, as far as I understand for the BDD verbosity is that fact that the requirements are easy to communicate with customers and so …

Recently stumbled upon BDD and the process of describing software from behaviour. I know there are seriously prolific software engineers amongst the Hacker News crowd and I could u…

Rclone is such an epic tool. Props to the creators. Thank you for making cloud storage easily accessible for linux users

Even further. Can we ditch the goddamn pdf format. It's such a stupid limit to put on papers. I hope the future of journals and articles will become interactive much like Jupyter N…

Functional programming, the idea of state machines and finally how Rust extends structs with functionality. Also experiencing an overengineered internal system that was microservic…

What was the cause of the ban?

Why have you given up? Is there too much spam-bashing?

It seems that the only way such social media can survive is through ads. Have you put any thought into how to monetize and stay afloat?

I tend to stumble upon math expressions to describe some problem. I find it very frustrating that I have no reference for the strange symbols (to my eyes). Is there a reference for…

Just out of curiosity; has anyone here contributed to Wikipedia?

Google Analytics which has recently been made illegal in my country due to the GDPR data export rules, I'm having another look at how I can track usage of different features as wel…

This is very reasonable

Yes, but it definitely depends on the model I'm putting into the database. Specifically I hadn't thought through an Order model and the OrderLines ended up being dependent directly…

If you've used validated learning or an experimental approach for your projects. How have you managed them and kept track of the learning learned along the way, without getting los…
