It doesn't sound like GP is saying we have to do away with audio, just that it's absurd to stick to _just_ audio. Great to have a screen that shows "Clear for option 25R etc etc". I think I saw the latest Cirrus planes h

I attended Northeastern from 2010-2013. Fundies (the freshman-level functional programming courses) was fundamental (ha) to my growth as a software developer. It taught me how to reason about data and how to design programs (the literal nam

I’m scheduled to donate one of mine to a stranger in a few weeks. Similar story here—saw Scott Alexander’s story, did some research, decided it was something i had to do. I’m donating through the national kidney registry, which means that I

off topic: do you have a name or a link for the paper referenced? My company just moved to a new office that's "coincidentally" closer to the CEO's house, and I'd love to send it to him.

I have long considered building a code generator that only serves "nice" codes. The standard implementation would use a hard coded set of patterns. The enhanced version would pair automatic random code generation with a public sit

HN highlights your username in orange to indicate that you're a YC founder, and shows that you're a founder of Octolane on your profile. Disingenuous comments like this on a forum like HN are strongly discouraged.

Basically what WorldMaker said. We updated our tsconfig and package.json, updated all our imports to include ".js", and fixed/upgraded things as necessary. The only real hiccup was that `require.main === module` no longer wor

If anybody has tried ES modules in the past five years and had to turn back due to incompatibility / lack of library support / javascript is a minefield, I'd urge you to try again. I managed to migrate our Typescript/Nod
