While laudable, this seems significantly harder to implement than banning advertising. Not that either are particularly feasible policies but this one seems harder.
Epistemic statuses are a great aid in sharing ideas without sounding overly confident. https://forum.effectivealtruism.org/posts/bbtvDJtb6YwwWtJm7/...
https://www.hillelwayne.com/post/graph-types/ gives an interesting take on why we don't see a graph type as a primitive on more programming languages. Essentially boils down to graphs being very vague and depending on…
I like this. Testing the browser extension now and pretty happy with it (after tweaking so returning to a tab has a grace period). I was using StayFocused, which is okay, but too tempting to just disable it (and…
Java Streams and Kotlin Sequences provide similar iterator capabilities. Iterators are great for this lazy performance but can sometimes be difficult to debug. Especially if you are nesting many iterators, then…
Excited to hear about Hardcover! I like StoryGraph but the lack of API frustrates me - I want to be able to sync back to my general notes store (Obsidian). Hopefully Hardcover works better with that.
>Debug information tends to be large and linking it slows down linking quite considerably. If you’re like many developers and you generally use println for debugging and rarely or never use an actual debugger, then this…
What is your pattern for navigating to a function definition (as an example of a basic IDE operation that doesn't seem supported)? Grep?
What are some of the challenges involved with international hiring in a remote environment? I work at a fully remote startup with ~200 employees. We hire from a couple dozen countries but I know there are fairly…
I think proper nouns get a bit more of a pass in terms of purple prose.
But the nonempty list never has an element, so we don't need to worry about the type mutation of removing an element from it. Filter just returns a nonempty list.
The problem is that user inferring doesn't scale. For small projects this is reasonable but for enterprise software engineering it is easy for a constraint that isn't enforced by the type system to be missed by an…
Indeed, still in use. Also presumably the Aho of the Aho-Corasick string matching algorithm.
Right - it is saying that there is no algorithm to do this in general. Any specific instance may have a solution.
Interesting read. Does not seem to be working with the same set of facts as the ACX post[1], especially around FDA approval. [1]: https://www.astralcodexten.com/p/defying-cavity-lantern-biow....
Big fan of todoist. I've been using it for less than a month, but have already switched to the yearly subscription. I use Obsidian for my notes, but for remembering to do something, I now use Todoist. Any passing…
I've noticed some streaming platforms have ads for other shows/movies they've made. I don't love these but can tolerate them because: 1. They are only at the start of a show, so I'm not interrupted. 2. They offer a skip…
Linking is an exceptionally good idea. It is very transformative to how I think about organizing information and doing it with Obsidian the past few months has felt great. Besides future proofing, I love the speed of…
Being 'fair' helps company relationships with current and future employees.
Highly recommend Freya's various deep dives into various game development contents. She also has twitch vods for developing those videos which are also fascinating. https://www.youtube.com/@Acegikmo
Highly recommend the chrome extension Facebook Purity. It strips your feed of the nonsense you don't care about in a very configurable way.
This was effective for me around a decade ago. These days it feels like most algorithmic content generation sites don't care when you express negative interest in something.
I think there is a fundamental gap between the OP's concept of "Point" versus the responders. They're essentially asking if decidability has practical[1] uses to which the answer is generally "No". When a general CS…
Interesting breakdown. But this format is horrible for conveying information. An improvement would be removing the slides, crafting some coherent paragraphs and then reinserting some of the more crucial images for…
It looks so bad in the context they give themselves: C# $"{x} plus {y} equals {x + y}" Visual Basic $"{x} plus {y} equals {x + y}" Python f"{x} plus {y} equals {x + y}" Scala s"$x plus $y equals ${x + y}" Groovy "$x…
