    Fun idea and a great easter egg, but as a game, the tutorial needs some work. I was so lost for so long and I'm still not sure I understand half of the game!

    The company I work for, Digits, has been regularly updating our AI-vs-human bookkeeper benchmark. Look at page 8 -- many models are nearly as accurate as a human bookkeeper https:/…

    I don't think this car is designed for them, similar to how trucks are not designed for urban areas. Not every car has to cater to every demographic.

    If you have a charger at home, or at work, why does it matter if you have to charge it daily or weekly? Yes, for some lifestyles, range matters. For others, a 125 km range is perfe…

    Hey -- we've loved using Conductor here at Digits. I've been using it since February and only recently swapped to using Orca for Remote SSH and perf improvements. Looking forward t…

    I think this is an excellent consideration of how the principles of Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance can apply to programming. I've always strived for Quality in my work, …

    Nice project! Curious why build a new front end instead of fixing (?) the behaviour in upstream Kakoune? I think the original author’s still working on Kakoune

    I agree that it shouldn't mysteriously be a pointer all the time, but using a pointer for the cursor is a preference, not a standard. In native apps (outside the web), the cursor i…

    I hope qntm has the chance to traditionally publish Ra and have it edited as well. I enjoyed the book a lot, but felt it needed a solid once over. Really enjoyed the novel though! …
