The Two Kings and the Two Labyrinths is a page long, and you can find it online (html). It is a small example of his style. If you like that one, then you will probably like his other stories. Of his short stories, my personal favorite is T

What about banning the postal service from selling customer's data, and funding it some other way? What about changing the "do not call me register" to a "please call me register" and making do not call me the defau

The "FUCK YOU" part you don't need. The "PAY ME" part is great advice.

Do you have any plans of open-sourcing the UI framework?

I took my laptop for repair to an Apple store in Germany. After that, they kept emailing me, despite me asking them to remove me from their mailing list several times. I then wrote an email to Tim Cook. They never answered back, but did not

Do you know if this will be open-sourced, or if the repo is already available?

I think a tree view was promised (listed on a presentation) when Flutter 2.0 was released, but no details were provided, and I haven't heard of it ever since.

Some companies even do this for job applications. A manager has a person they want for a role but, because of policy, they must publish it on their employment website, and go through the charade of interviewing candidates, wasting everybody

I don't get it. As a pibe chorro, you should have just taken it and ran away.

This was more than 10 years ago. If I recall correctly, they sold the BigMac but did not advertise it (not sure if they even displayed it on the menu).

I would add to your excellent answer an anecdote about the tricks of a previous government (with mostly the same people as the current one) to hide inflation: the Secretary of Interior Commerce (a complete thug) forced McDonalds to freeze t

Since Argentina started having its own currency, it had to reset it 5 times, dropping a total of 13 zeroes. I have memories of two of those resets and, similar to what you say about your grandma, I remember older people translating to the o

You will be compelled to exchange your dollars at the "official" exchange rate (which is about 1/2 of the real market value), so you lose ~50% there. On top of that, you have to pay taxes.

That seems unlikely. That foreman most probably belongs to a union. Unions in Argentina are very powerful and they negotiate at the National level. Whatever increase they negotiate, your friend's father-in-law will have to pay.

Fiscal deficit. The public sector grows and grows by hiring friends, family, and party members. In addition to that, every government contract is overpriced for kickbacks, and the government meddles in everything seeking opportunities for c

I wish there was a board that focused on providing a VS Code server to iPads over USB-C, with all the cost allocated to processor and memory, and very basic (or no) display hardware. It feels strange that such a powerful tablet would need s

I know very little physics and mathematics, so apologies in advance if I am asking something very stupid, but is this a theorem in the mathematical sense of the word?

Treesitter is not JS (although the Wasm version can be used from JS). Lezer ( https://github.com/lezer-parser/lezer ) is similar (it was inspired by Treesitter) and is written in TS.

If his conviction is overturned, could his descendant sue for a wrongful conviction in civil court, plus interests for 718 years?

Thanks for the link. Do you know of any examples that use this crate that would be easy enough for a beginner to start learning how to use it?

I wonder if this would allow using a WebView2 from Rust? I've searched the repository, but was not able to find it.

This reminds me of when Perón's Argentina declared war on Germany just a few days before the war was over.

Congratulations on the release! It looks very interesting. Does the GUI library embed a web-view, or does it use native controls? What's you estimate of when it will be available for Android and iOS?

Very nice tool. I could find a really great use for it, if it supported sftp sinks. Is that in the plan?

True, but it was a split-second decision. Can he really be accused of premeditation?

I think the trick may be deciding what to do on the web side and what on the Rust side. In the case I was mentioning, I used the web side only for display. All the file handling, app updates, full-text search, etc., I did in Rust, and it wo

It depends on the application. I did a couple of projects with Rust's web-view crate (which uses native Safari on MacOS, and native Edge on Windows). This gave me access to the full JS and the full Rust ecosystem. I think the possibili

Thank you very much for doing this. I have permanent residency, and children younger than 21 who live abroad. If I were to apply for permanent residency for them, would they be able to visit the US as tourists while the process is ongoing,
