    For an entire book about the topic, see "The physics of filter coffee" by Jonathan Gagné. Also > This can be achieved using an espresso machine (figure 1), or with smaller contrapt…

    Retirement accounts are a thing in Europe though. In Poland for example there's IKE and IKZE. IKE is a bit simpler of the two. If you hold your money on IKE until you're 60 you're …

    Well, ackchyually, you can not pick P, it's just not cheap. You could imagine a network behaving like a motherboard really.

    There's a Polish electronics forum that's infamous because it's kind of actively hostile to them noobs. "Blacklisted power supply, closing thread." is a micro meme at this point.

    But is the system choking? Or, are you certain it would choke with half the RAM you have? It's a well know thing that OS will book majority of the RAM you have and that's actually …

    What gets me the most is that all the "correct typing posture" images seem to indicate that it's best to keep the keyboard low, close to you, elbows bent around 90 degrees. In this…

    We found an ancient tablet, dated it, reconstruded a long-dead language well enough to read it, reconstructed the night sky on that day, five and a half thousand years ago, found t…

    Baba is You is literally a sokoban for software engineers, highly recommended. It's quite difficult though.

    Yeah, sorry for not being clear enough. I just struggle how a good faith market can even exist. I immediately start thinking how participants would be incentivized to cheat by negl…

    How isn’t a knowledgeable person incentivized to find vulnerabilities but not disclose them?

    I wasn't around back then, but it must've been at least a bit crazy, considering Atwood threw an exception (heh) high enough to write a blog entry about it. What I think has happen…

    Few weeks ago I'd disagree with you, but recently I've been struggling with concentration and motivation and now I kind of try to embrace coding with AI. I guide it pretty strictly…

    First time reading this. It's actually funny how disliking exceptions seemed crazy then but it's pretty normal now. And writing a new programming language for a certain product, we…

    If AI is such a competitive advantage, why are AI companies even trying to sell it? Wouldn't it bring more money to use a bleeding edge internal model and just vibe a couple of fac…

    May I ask you how you model your functional code in Python, in absence of Haskell's algebraic data types?

    I have written a small system in Elixir adhering to FCIS. Not used to the approach, I was pretty slow and sometimes it felt like jumping through hoops set by myself, lol, but I lov…

    Yeah, N++ is super floaty, there's A LOT of inertia. It might feel off at the beginning, but when you get the hang of it, it's just beautiful. It's the opposite of twitchy. You wor…

    I’ll go one step further: what makes you think it’s an average auto-translate job? I didn’t notice anything weird, felt like your average, slightly ranty HN post. I’m not a native …

    13 mini here, also not charging every day. My screen time is around 2 hours a day, which IMO is still to much. I try to keep battery between 20 and 80 percent.

    I'd love to indent the body of each stage in multi-stage dockerfiles, like: FROM foo ... FROM bar ... It's easy to see at glance what's going on.
