This is really cool to look at. A couple weeks ago I started vibe-coding a Doom for Beam which will allow you to 'run around' a beam VM as a factory floor and see the modules and f…

I have always felt lucky to have learned C and Magic: The Gathering at the same time (1994). I am not sure if the C helped my MTG playing more or vice versa.

Selecto, an elixir SQL query library that works with or without Ecto. Also SelectoComponents which gives you a web interface to build queries. It is based on 20+ years of experienc…

When I first got my CPAP it was not helping at all. I complained and got a new sleep study WHILE using the CPAP that showed it was not helping. They gave a prescription for an oxyg…

Also around that time that me and my friends learned what 'Extended Area' calling was- we all thought that if it was not long distance then it must be free! I remember us solemnly …

For the times/durations- what does 15 à 30 J mean? 15 days - 30 days?

So how do you trace the stair cuts?

13 year old me was confused by holter monitors, which are wearable heart monitors invented by Norman J. Holter. Everyone seems to pronounce it as halter, and mine was kind of like …

Currently building a Splendor clone in Phoenix LiveView to teach myself Elixir... I had a rare moment of geek glee last night when I got the reserve-card functionality working, wat…

Ken Forkish's book 'Flour, Water, Salt, Yeast' has led me to making some great breads, and every step is explained and has photos. There's as many ways to make bread as there are b…

I fell for one of those videos last week... Didn't notice it was April fools until I went back this morning, confused. Guess I need to stop letting Youtube pick the videos I watch.…

I assumed they were already doing that. I've seen several TV shows or movies (recently Booksmart) where "I can't use uber because of my low passenger rating" was used as a plot dev…

I saw Jeff Lowe a couple years ago and someone from the audience asked him what technology he's seen that has most revolutionized climbing- he said headlamps: The small, light, LED…

Any examples where you're saying no is too many. Always go! I have made it a point to always say yes and it has made a huge difference for me. I am also very shy.

I did this a couple weeks ago. The puzzles are a bit contrived but it is challenging and fun.

Not quite on topic, but back in 2004, I switched from sugar soda to diet soda and lost 40 lbs. I didn't make any other changes at the time, and I did and do continue to drink a lot…

I think generally tracking is done with radar transponders which can be disabled from the cockpit.

Can't believe I've had that wrong for so long. Must have misinterpreted it right when I learned perl and have always been careful about it.

That will not always pass. if (exists $foo->{bar}){ .. will not run .. } if ($foo->{bar}) {...} if (exists $foo->{bar}){ .. will run .. }

I wonder if they are finding that a lot of their systems inadvertently relied upon this bug, and they are scrambling to test and fix them all rather than release a fix that causes …

You have to do the income tax anyway, you might as well run the two programs together.

There have been experiments with NIT (Negative Income Tax) in the US. My impression was that they were a disaster, but in looking for them I found this article,[1] which explains s…

Do you really know libertarians that are in favor of corporate welfare? They or you must be confused. Many libertarians want to get rid of the corporate income tax both because it …
