Oh nice, I was just looking through for WIN32 apis to make something like RegionToShare. This saves me some time!

I used a tv as a monitor for a while and it was great -- but there is one problem with single monitor setups -- screen sharing/recording. If the app you're using lets you select a portion of the screen to share, that's great.

Awesome, I've been working on a project with ImGui and keep thinking how great something like this would be. I'll be trying this out!

Unity supports USD -- also Unity isn't technically a content creation tool (well...in the sense of what Adobe and Autodesk tools are). It is way bigger deal for the content creation tools to be aligning on an export format than consume

Similar for me. I exclusively used reddit via old. or apollo, and mostly just lurked. I have some good memories of some communities there but by and large it's not something I enjoy anymore. For community I'm on discord, for being

Can't speak to Fourier specifically -- but heartily agree that a lot of times in math, teachers try to make it "easy" and provide visuals that are actually a hindrance. Instead of understanding _the material_ you understand t

That's a fair point...I tend to be paranoid about these things, and I think your point reinforces mine to an extent. Yeah I have simple taxes, and yet couldn't feel confident about it through TurboTax. But at this point we're

Anecdotally, I stopped using TurboTax (after using it for 8 years) for 2 reasons. I was never confident that my tax situation was being handled correctly. The UI is noisy, the explanations don't explain. So I would buy audit insurance

I think daily stand up even encourages BS. Sometimes you really don't get much done in a day, but during standup it's got to sound like you did _something_ -- so how about some bs.

Fork is great -- except for when you try and google about it b/c at least for me, I haven't been able to differentiate my queries between the git fork operation and git Fork the UI. Also on my local machine, push to remote gitlab

I remember this project from a few years ago, and the Twitch channel provides a link to some of the original content, https://pythonprogramming.net/game-frames-open-cv-python-pla... .

I've spent a lot of time learning how to use the Win32 api and overall I like using the Windows OS. But the user hostile design decisions of the UI/UX is making it more and more likely that I'll move on. I don't want ads

I am pretty sure the rabbit fishing is a reference to "The Runaway Bunny", another one of her books.

the last two times I've gone on a job hunt, I only look at and apply for jobs on LinkedIn with "Easy Apply". I am not going to maintain a resume, a LinkedIn, _and_ fill all that info in on some janky form for one company.

There is a dire need for a good personal finance app. Mint is just out there to grab data, YNAB is ok but super limited. And then pretty much every bank site is lacking in any meaningful tools and API access.

For me this ended meaning lots of student loans and feeling like I'm way behind in life. But glad nonetheless that I found something where it doesn't feel like hard work just to go to work.

My realization was similar but different wording. "If you have to work hard just to show up, find something else".

"Several people claimed comments have absolutely zero value. Therefore their deletion is irrelevent." What? Purely anecdotal I suppose, but I have found immensely helpful information in comments on SO.

I think it is a _little bit_ off to just consider Slack to be a chat app. Sure chat is the core function...One thing I find super valuable about Slack is that it is a searchable archive. When a new person joins a company, they have literall

Working ridiculous hours at a startup (I can barely remember anything from 2016) really drove home to me that time is way way way way way more valuable than money. Use it wisely (unfortunately wisdom is hard to get before the time has been

I think more like software engineering needs to be more formalized like the other mature engineering disciplines such as Civil Engineering.
