VS Code - how much of this can you NOT do with VS COde. For instance, even /rename doesn't work in VS Code. I guess I can try all the recommended commands, but I'm skeptical. Or, c…

For weather data and amazing visualizations see https://weatherspark.com/ Check out their compare feature. Brilliant. Eg: Seattle vs London https://weatherspark.com/compare/y/913~4…

What a great way to put it in perspective, and shocking how low per query. I expanded your comparison list (with Chat GPT). Pretty interesting. Activity | Watts Used (1 hr) -------…

I keep getting told by friends not to use AI because it is destroying the environment. I've argued about it, but maybe I'm wrong? I'm sure there are good insights within HN. How sh…

I like it! I do the steps involved in this occasionally, manually. It’s not hard but this makes it nice. Not sure I’ll use it since it is one more thing to install and remember, bu…

I just tried to switch a simple quick site from bootstrap to tailwind and backed out. It seemed like I had to build my base template from scratch whereas with bootstrap they give i…

This is so true! I just programmed an Arduino for a diy attic fan controller. Was it hard? Not really. Was it a bigger pain in the butt than programming for home assistant? Oh gosh…

I'd like to plug Ubiquiti also. I'm not a networking guy and I just want my network to work. I don't want to worry about it or try to guess am I having problems due to Comcast or m…

Array - What's the use case here? (And I'm not being snarky or even critical.) My usage is generally lists for small stuff where I don't care about performance, and pandas/numpy fo…

Has anyone actually done this? I looked into it briefly, came away thinking it was going to be non-trivial to get working (or might have downstream bugs), and gave it up as not wor…

I think this is such a clever use of capitalism for positive purpose. I’ve worked with Eco-Soap Bank ( https://ecosoapbank.org/ ) mentioned in the article. So great.

Sorry I’m dense, but what is this? Is this like an Amazon lambda function tied to an API Gateway?

So maybe that's the idea for my projects that I make available to others. Be a bit more deliberate with branches, allow them to be junky, and clean up when I merge to master. That …

I'm also a solo developer and use git in a much less sophisticated fashion. I tend to use it as, "freeze my code here, so in case I f something up, I can get back to a moderately c…

My two cents- subtrees were SO much harder for my use case. Rename a directory? Ugh. Subtree split? Commit history? Just a mess. I switched back to sub modules and it’s such a reli…

I love the idea. Keep it up. Here is a nitpick - I tried to find a way to send it to you privately, since it is trivial, but I couldn't find a link or your email anywhere. 1) Remov…

Do you have good data, charts, or intelligent articles that would help one understand Scandinavian socialism, particularly as it relates to the US? First: this is not an invitation…

How do people in general test their https during development? I've never done it but will for my current project, but am dreading it. I was thinking of Docker or Vagrant. Or maybe …

I'd say the premise a bit differently: matplotlib is tricky to learn but once you figure out how it works it's not bad. I just went through this process myself ( http://kachess.k2c…

Thanks for all the tips. I started the book Brave, installed Cava and got it working, and am considering finally biting the bullet on emacs. Two birds with one stone! Thanks for th…

Clojure Help: This is super apropos since I am JUST learning Clojure via the Clojure Koans. Any tips from clojurists on getting the repl (and readline) working fluently? I'm using …

Wow - that’s amazing. Look how tiny that is compared to the load it is pulling. It looks like it would hardly make a difference. (I’m a kiteboarder and my kites are way bigger than…

Last night we had a scare. Our house filled with smoke and we couldn't find the source. Eventually we tracked it down to a pair of headphones: https://ibb.co/N1L9zB2 Question: Do H…

There is a semi-valid reason similar, but I think different, from his first point. Holding on to data provides an option to potential downstream gains. (ie: holding data has an "op…

For me it's not about speed at all. I've used ack and loved it because it automatically ignores everything I want ignored (with a .ackrc file). I just tried ripgrep and like it eve…
