teenage enginering | senior backend developer | full-time | stockholm ONSITE | https://teenage.engineering hello, as head of it, i'm looking for another top backend developer to ex…

imho it would make more sense to rewrite to golang with a stronger production ready standard library.

I guess the illustrations for the article were made with ai - they are all different styles visually. I like it allmost all the way through, gives a nice fuzzy ai edge to the feel,…

it's also possible to get a little better results by cheating a little bit with the error distribution, Ulichneys ξ1 and ξ2 as in "Simple gradient-based error-diffusion method" Jou…

absence of signal is not a good indicator of operation. it is the same signal as total failure of your system.

erlangs bit matching syntax, case statements for structs... incredibly elegant. I don't know about Rust or Lua, maybe they have this too.

"For the attacks to work, an attacker must first obtain administrator access to a targeted network, Guido said." what does that even mean?

1000 ug aka "Heroic Dose".

clearly the author is not hip to The Human Evasion by Celia Green. Those guys were just all OK with choosing a slightly different reality, because the mainstream reality tunnel is …

well, emacs, or terminal usage in general on a mac with the control key not on edge of keyboard is extremely unergonomic. So yay to control in the right place.

The core language is good enough but the object oriented stuff they put on top later on is just a hell of an eyesore.

Sure it takes a while to load and there's bloat, but the bloat is everywhere now. On the bad site of the JVM and assorted Java tools is that they are second class citizens of the u…

OK I got calmer, but then I got stressed out! the blue circle is not in the center of the black ring.

Wow! The center of the maze. Now it's just a matter of time before clojurescript is self hosted and the Eschaton is Immanentized.

big fan. just love this style / mac user since 1986.

well GCD is an evented model and Celery is not so what's your point? Queue and Thread is available in python and work well up to a point. Twisted (and sugar @inlineCallbacks) or si…

Yes, and even within a framework... investing in using for example React for a project and some plugs, come back to project a couple of months later to add some library for let's s…

wow, wizardry. it was my favourite game with the dark castle series coming in second. Proving grounds of the mad overlord. I still have it on my SE/30 and on disks. Never did play …

I have never seen that dialogue. I started to use spotlight before there was internet feature to third party, and have upgraded machine since that.

yep cloud everything... noticed a while ago (after installing little snitch) that anything typed (and pasted?) into OSX ⌘-space search also calls out to the cloud to get suggestion…

Yes, one of the benefits of Rails most overlooked by it's opponents is how immensely productive it is for small to medium sized apps. This comes from not only the DRY perspective b…

imho python3 fixed the issue in the wrong way, so it will never have a great amount of users: down the road the choice will be upgrade to python3 or choose a more modern programmin…

it's bog-standard and readily available on most platforms. no real need for split screen, either fullscreen web on one workspace and terminal on other or side by side if working on…

All that trouble for nothing. I use xterm and control-z, and fg, one terminal window. If I need to work from more computers than one I use a screen instance that I can detach/attac…
