Congrats on launching! I've wanted exactly-this for years. I've sketched a few versions but it stayed on the back-burner for me, partly because friends/etc didn't see the appeal. I'm really excited to try it out.

Whoa, NodeBox! Back when I was doing my first big coding project, NodeBox 1's Linguistics library was really helpful for me. ( https://www.nodebox.net/code/index.php/Linguistics.html ) > The library bundles

In a Chrome browser on desktop, you can right click and "Copy Link to Highlighted Text". That's the context (hah, pun) where I know it from. It's really useful!

Thank you for posting those two, I wanted to post them but I don't comment often. Wanted to chip in another contemporary: edelvalle/reactor, which is inspired by LiveView[0]. [0]: https://github.com/edelvalle/

BitWiz is an ios app that lets you play with bytebeat stuff. I've spent a lot of time with it (though, mostly years ago). https://apps.apple.com/us/app/bitwiz-audio-synth/id522046655

GitSense seems very useful. Constructive feedback about the UI: replace the (straggler?) serif font with the sans serif font you're using elsewhere on the page

Enforcement has problems. The enforcement tends to reproduce existing power structures, including both racist policing and classist policing.

Agreed. I really detest how the word "democratize" got buzzed to death. It's become a zombie marketing term, and it wraps familiar ideology with vague associations of a rallying cry. Better phrasing maybe: it's a zombie

Anybody here remember Beyond the Mind's Eye etc? (Some of the same clips were used in Lawnmower Man). I found a VHS of it at a Good Will. Made a music video chopping it up (2011): - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jrR6k

Thank you for sharing this stack! I'm a Pythonista at heart, recently was trying RxDB + TypeScript, and I was thinking hmm I'll bet I could do something with postgres and Pydantic.

You are not alone! And I am very, very pissed off at the neglect of Google Classroom's UI. I wish they had (and would still) stay out of education, it's so irresponsible to half-ass it like they have. Google Classroom's UI pr

Comparing to a $GOOG tablet would raise privacy questions pretty quickly, I think This isn't an A vs B thing to me, it's just that comparing to an ipad says something to a lot of users, and quickly. If this project succeeds, it wi

It's great to give feedback, it's also good to remember: not every distro (or project, in general) is trying to court every user or every audience. To me that's the beauty of FOSS, it's open ended.

Two bandaids that have helped me: - On a large file, or in a slow project, put the Inspection Level down a notch. (You can get to it from the Actions keyboard shortcut.) You can nudge it back up, including for whatever big file -- when need

I am so glad to learn about these features in Rust and Elixir. I'm coming from Python originally, so I always want them! https://docs.python.org/3/library/doctest.html https://docs.pytest.org/

Thank you for ripgrep! I will mention it in that thread too but I'm AFK so before I forget... I'm imagining a "drill down" TUI with rg and fzf. fzf can be good for both filenames and other filter-downs. Thinking of bread

Something that is not by Google but which you would probably like - SourceGraph. Has commercial options but it is OSS. https://about.sourcegraph.com/

My head is nodding at the intention here, but it's important to remember this reactionary attitude can be damaging as well. That is missing from the post. Specifically, reactionary conservatism about tools and services can be a competi

As far as I know if it is extracted from hemp only, and the label says 0% THC from a reputable analysis company, those tests will not show it.

Your sample size for this claim is a bit small...

Anecdotal, but... It’s worked for me and several people I am close with, over several years.

Look for “USP Certified”. NatureMade is a popular brand that tends to have this. Costco brand (Kirkland) also often does - note that Kirkland prices are cheap in Costco but not so much on Amazon (resold or something). If you have a Costco
