Oh. Dropping IO.inspect into the pipeline is embarrassingly obvious! I can't believe I didn't think to do that. I always used IO.inspect as a pretty printer during development but …

> You can’t throw a REPL wherever your want in your code In my experience, I found I could throw a `require IEx; IEx.pry` pretty much anywhere in the code to get a REPL. This seeme…

I'm inclined to agree with you, despite everybody else seeming to fundamentally disagree. I'm not convinced by either of the arguments in response to your comment. We have huge amo…

No I mean the 'majority' as in the 51.9% who voted Leave , due to the poor turnout, corresponds to about 1/3 of the electorate.

I don't. I'm situated in a very stereotypically "rural England" type place — a deeply Conservative area, within the sea of Blue you see on maps of our election results[1]. In regar…

I'm not sure why your comment has been downvoted, this is a very reasonable point. I agree with the linked comment in that I know I am in the minority (votes-wise) but the point I …

Out of interest, do you actually use this? I saw it recommended on HN before and tried it. I found it has one of the most awful UIs I've ever seen. I found it completely unusable a…

I feel like most of the complaints here are about stateless password managers/generators in general. If not being able to change your master password is an issue to you, then this …

You've got some really great selections there! I've picked a fairly random list of albums and EPs from a range of electronic music, I really hope you find things you like amongst i…

Having used Facebook mainly for the messaging functionality for years now, I'm amazed I never knew messenger.com existed. It's interesting to consider that, although I use an ad-bl…

These were also my thoughts when reading the article. I have always associated red with old and green with new. I also do not think red conveys the negative meaning the author sugg…
