The trick to this is to attach a handle to the back of it. I'm using one that telescopes from the "popsockets" brand (I'm unaffiliated and have no idea how it compares with other brands). It makes it possible for me to a

Are there any guidelines for what exactly this would entail? My short term memory is falling off a cliff. What do I need to do to prevent that from getting worse? Are there any other bases I need to cover that I don't know that I'

You can premove as many moves as you want in a lichess correspondence game. I feel like you can even premove to whatever depth you want, but it has been a while since I've played.

I think this Rust complaint is just inexperience. You wanted a Map<String, String>, and that's exactly what you should have made. A String is a convenience wrapper for storing a &str on the heap, so storing a String on the he

Lisp always sounds cool to me until someone starts talking about macros. What's it like inheriting a lisp code base, finding out its full of homemade macros like list comprehensions, and that they're not documented? Inheriting a c

You do realize that "vast selection of easy-to-use libraries" is the most important feature of a programming language. Right? It's up there with, "it's not hard to hire programmers for the language", which Pyth

Personally, I would love to ditch python for a language with strong types and type inference, but what is the replacement for django? Where do I find a well-designed, well-documented, battle-tested framework that I can easily hire developer

I'm with you. Haskell's Yesod framework is pretty feature competitive with rails/django, but it doesn't have 1/10th of the community. I'd love to see Haskell gain wide popularity, but I don't think it&#x27

I'm not as skeptical of prolotherapy. The idea is that it acts as an irritant which increases blood flow and other healing responses to that area. Tendons in particular are thought to heal slowly because they don't have great bloo

Find a newbie, stand behind them, and watch them struggle to use your program. Don't help them at all.

From a web dev perspective, I've heard a lot about React lately, so I learned it. I'm not saying it's bad, but I expected it to do a lot more.

Why did you do that, and what did you replace stock django with?

by Yxven 10y ago
Would you be more specific as to why you prefer flask to django? I looked at flask, and the code for views doesn't look much different. It does look like it's missing form and model validation. Do you use a library for that or do

As a working programmer that is curious about category theory, I feel like this misses the mark completely. I watched this yesterday, and this is what I remember: 1) I will tell you why category theory is relevant to you, the working progra

Web development has the most innovation because it is the least entrenched. It is not hard to write a bare-bones web application that produces output that can be read on browsers everywhere. Compare that to the difficulty of writing a cross

Lucky Charms has 110 calories per 3/4ths a cup. Honey Nut Cheerios has 110 calories per 3/4ths a cup. They both have 22g of carbs of which Lucky Charms has 10g of sugar while Cheerios has 9. Don't confuse branding with health

If I could take over as the CEO of Google on Monday, I would do it in a heart beat. Whether my skills fit the job is irrelevant. You're wrongly assuming that I expect to be great at my dream job. I don't. I'd expect a learnin

This argument assumes we can trust the auctioneer to only increase our bids fairly instead of gaming the system to maximize their profit (or at least short term profit). I don't think we live in a world where that's a reasonable a

I've been using Haskell for a few months now, and quicksort has become trivial to read. Although, I agree that knowledge of other programming languages barely transfers to Haskell. I think being very different is the main factor that r

Your speculation is mostly right. Our brains are pretty good at automating repetitive tasks such as driving, so most drivers regularly don't pay complete attention. The trouble is our brains primarily adapt to repeated stimuli eg drivi

Most people have difficulty with it initially, but it's not difficult to make it harder. Try doing all that while rotating one leg clockwise.

I hate to see products like these promoted because the creators are making bloodmoney. Cell phones are not dangerous because the driver was looking at his phone or playing with the buttons when he had an accident. They are dangerous because
