    We've switched over our libraries at $WORK to use `tsdown` and it's mostly been a very boring journey, we switched from `tsup` and the DX gains have been massive. Running our `dev`…

    I used Org Mode for all mandatory assignments [0] when I was a student, it worked super well and I could create well formatted LaTeX documents/PDFs from it as well. The supervisors…

    If you've never been exposed to a Hindley-Milner type system[1] it can seem a bit magical, but it essentially works by trying to figure out the types from the inside and out by inf…

    Norway has incredibly high tolls and tariffs on importing food (a bit ironic nowadays), primarily to protect the local farmers etc. We're a big country, but the amount of arable la…

    I think an EU membership will only happen in Norway when the old generations die out, the yes/no divide is a big generational thing. Even though the latest poll only shows a six pe…

    I also over-engineered how I generate my CV[1], but went the opposite direction by using Dhall to create JSON and LaTeX files that I use to create a PDF and GraphQL API in Rust for…

    I too would be immensely frustrated if this was released in my terminal emulator, and would jump ship immediately. My current job would (and probably will) ban this and similar int…

    This also made me scratch my beard, but I think he maybe means allowing multiple mutable references to a variable when the compiler can prove that nothing bad happens. It's somethi…

    I can't speak for the authors of Rolldown, but esbuild is essentially a one-man show and everything is bespoke and written for esbuild. Not saying this as a bad thing, Evan single-…

    Huh? The official numbers are 877k or 16% [0]. Are you just pulling numbers out of thin air? [0]: https://www.ssb.no/en/innvandring-og-innvandrere/faktaside/i...

    After getting a Garmin watch I’ve noticed that any drinking wreaks havoc on my body, and heavy drinking lingers for a long time. I’m getting the same readings when I’ve had a bit t…
