Considering it's going to consume libghostty, I'm betting it'll be Zig.

Beautifully written! I want to live in a world where we strive towards perfection, rather than strive to destroy it.

Very interesting! Latency numbers are written with three significant digits (4.21 ms). I'm curious about the accuracy of the measurement device. If it can measure tens of microseco…

I prefer «reduces uncertainty» to «reduces ambiguity». The problem isn't ambiguous specifications, it's simply that there are too many unknowns to just do the work at this point. T…

Not annoyed. But curious! I agree that mentoring is hard, and I want to read your take. I wonder if we agree on expert aesthetics or not. You write: > Experts tend to have an aesth…

Any idea where to find the "Hard" and "Expert aesthetics" articles mentioned in the article? The links are giving me 404s. https://boydkane.com/hard https://boydkane.com/expert_aes…

Consider sending him an E-mail, he responded when I thanked him for exactly this book a few years ago! There's an "E-mail me" link on the left sidebar at http://www.catb.org/~esr/ …

Might I ask for a link? I searched around, but didn't find anything. Perhaps the title is something different than "go minimal feature set".

If you mash together two ideas, is the new composite idea yours? I'd say it's yours. In that frame, there are lots of ideas. Lets assume there are 10 000 known ideas. Then there's …

No, don't summarize. Remix! Write about your own ideas! Your mind is a living collection of your own ideas, and a history of their significance to your prior life. Not a dead libra…

Great idea! Personally, I want an even higher signal to noise ratio and even fewer articles. Perhaps significance > 7, and articles from the last week.

Or "read eval browse loop", in contrast to a "read eval print loop". REBL let's you browse complex data structures and move around in them. In a REPL, printing a megabyte of JSON c…

Thanks!

Care to recommend a video to start with?

I think "reintroduced" makes sense. I thought there were factory problems, a page with information about product returns, and possibly a story around that.

I've written about how to ask for help: https://play.teod.eu/interaction-value-differential/ I'm going to assume you don't have people on your team / in your organization you can l…

Here's a recently compiled list of good Clojure learning resources: https://gist.github.com/ssrihari/0bf159afb781eef7cc552a1a0b1... Edit: if by "learning Lisp" you mean lisps other…

That depends a lot. I live in Oslo now, and have lived in Trondheim and Finnmark near Kirkenes before. Never used blackout curtains in Oslo or Trondheim, absolutely needed them in …

Start by asking yourself what you like! Then dig into that. Don't consume passively, consume actively. When you see something that makes you feel joy, explore why. Explore what par…
