    Wow. I have never worked on any cryptocurrency projects and never intend to, but I will certainly be staying very far away from Codeberg because of this. There are some levels of c…

    I recently switched from vterm to ghostel, and it is generally much, much better - noticeably faster (e.g. fancy TUI apps that try to refresh the whole terminal every frame actuall…

    This would be much more interesting if it detailed how the prompt/skills were reverse-engineered. As it is it seems like this could just be the output from “hey Claude write me a s…

    Hi HN! I couldn't find a static site generator I liked for my website (I looked at Hugo, Jekyll, Gatsby.js, and the Pollen library for Racket). They were either too complicated for…

    What don't you like about Racket macros? AFAIK Racket has the most advanced macro hygiene system out of any of the other languages you mentioned - it guarantees that all macros are…

    Why not take a shot at it yourself? Both Emacs and Ronin are open source.

    If you're willing to give Emacs another shot, check out LSP-mode [0]. It's an implementation of the language server protocol, the same tech that powers the autocomplete/jump-to-def…

    Check out Pydantic: https://pydantic-docs.helpmanual.io/ . It lets you define model classes and enforces the type hints of the models' fields at runtime. Plus you get free serializ…

    I think "don't be an asshole" is a pretty good rule of thumb.
