    Ah, my point was more on how to connect to the live database on some remote server.

    As someone really tempted to use SQLite in production, the one thing I keep bumping against is how to have a nice GUI to interact with the running database. With our current prod d…

    I feel for a smallish project I'd rather prefer to have more readable, dense code like Ruby's over the ceremony of static types.

    Sounds cool, as someone interested in concatenative languages and also a user of C#, might I ask if you have a link?

    Factor is super cool! And the amount of packages ("vocabularies") it comes bundled with is just astonishing.

    I assume that in most array languages, you also create "words" or however you want to call functions, to reuse code. I wonder about a purely aesthetic issue: how does it look to in…

    It is a very interesting write-up. A random thought I had while reading this: I feel like long-term, a system that schedules/"optimizes" the process of learning by reading/watching…

    Did you learn that handwriting pose already as a child? If not, how hard was it to teach yourself writing that way?

    At work, we use the .editorconfig of the .NET runtime, with slight modifications: https://github.com/dotnet/runtime/blob/main/.editorconfig

    Hi, as someone also fiddling around with a concatenative toy language, I wanted to ask if any of your languages have a public repository somewhere? You seem very knowledgeable on t…

    https://sweepy.com/ There is also one that is called "tody" that we didn't try out. Both require a small subscription fee though, which I really dislike. I wish I had found a nice …

    I like it! For me, I can confirm that the smaller the task, the less likely it is for me to procrastinate on it. I also didn't know that receipt printers don't need ink, that's coo…

    Are there any other VM's like the BEAM? I never heard of any (admittedly I know little of this subject), and I wondered, is it because there is no need for another one because the …

    That sounds very intriguing, do you mind sharing the smart pen model?

    Thank you. I once read a bit about Span , but some of this reference stuff is very new to me. Interesting, definitely. C# really is a big language nowadays...

    I sometimes write C# in my day job. But I think I don't know much about how to write really fast C#. Do you have any recommendations for learning resources on that topic?

    Anecdotal: I recently found a little trick that works for me to overcome the horrors of the blank page: I turn my phone (having opened my preferred note-taking solution) into horiz…

    Me too. If anyone likes that font but doesn't want to spend so much money, I found SF Mono and CommitMono to be kind of similar looking.

    Comment #42523173

    Nice. I also have an implementation in Rust (no public repository, private note-taking app). One low-hanging fruit (IMO) to improve on the base SM-2 is to more smartly pick the ini…

    Thank you for clarifying! I guess math is uniquely suited for this kind of strategy, but would you say it translates to learning concepts in other domains too? I was thinking about…

    Say you have concepts/items/cards A, B and C, with A -> B -> C (C encompasses B, B encompasses A, keeping the notation from the article). As I understand it, the article advocates …
