I like this approach. Something related I've been tinkering with are "protected bookmarks" - you declare what bookmarks (main, etc) are protected in your config.toml and the normal `jj bookmark` commands that change the bookm

I'm glad you shared this because, in my head this Dr. Nick quote is so canonical it must be from the original golden 8 seasons, so it's nice to be reminded there are occasionally good things after! ;^)

As an OCaml-curious, is this the community recommendation, to choose the Jane Street stdlib if you’re just getting started?

You can wrap the navigation event in document.startViewTransition() and get something basic out of the box: https://codepen.io/pauladamsmith/pen/VYeJMMb

In that case, each county that corresponds to that ZIP Code is shown and the user can disambiguate manually.

For example, health care plans in the US are county-specific with regard to premiums, co-pays, etc. (based on demographics). Allowing someone to type in their ZIP Code to get started can be a better user experience than having them pick the

One thing I just recalled is that if you maintain a small exceptions lookup table (i.e. the ones that span state boundaries), you can use ZIP Codes as a way to uniquely look up a county name.

This is a fact of ZIP Codes that a lot of people stumble one. I've worked on GIS/mapping projects in the past where stakeholders wanted or assumed ZIP Codes to be polygons. Another complexity that surprises folks is you can't

Similar timing, I had a high school internship at the National Cancer Institute at Ft. Detrick, MD in 1994-95, and the lab down the hall had some SGI iron and a glove (I don't remember what the glove hardware was, if it was SGI or 3rd-

Aside from the Liquid Glass stuff, has anyone detailed the changes to the Unix bits of the OS? What's new, deprecated, moved, locked-down, etc. ... ?

Another good rule of thumb to remember is that a 50mm lens on a 35mm sensor ("full-frame") is roughly the equivalent FOV of the human eye, i.e., what you see naturally.

It's a great point, and I did consider it, the trouble is, how do you get the pattern resource data out of ResEdit running in the emulator and onto the modern machine? And ResEdit doesn't seem to run in any kind of compatibility m

OK, wallpapers are on there now - tap/click on the virtual display after picking a pattern.

Exactly. One of the cool things about doing this the hard way was discovering that Apple still hosts old system and programmers manuals like the one for QuickDraw on its website.

Interesting - what's the provenance of this? Is this a leaked copy of the System source, or a disassembly/decompile?

Yeah this is what keeps me from considering old PCs for NAS. Maybe stating the blindingly obvious but seems like there is a gap in the market for a board or full kit with a high efficiency ~1-10W CPU and a bunch of SATA and PCIe ports.

For fans of this there's another '70s-era LP similarly inspired by the novel: Bernard Szajner's "Visions of Dune" from 1979. It's proggy, synthy, psychedelic, and just a weird fun listen. https://ber
