Svelte is great, htmx is great. I don't think the right way to think about it is that one of them is _the_ future of F/E development. One might be getting more attention at the moment but they are both (along with others) useful t

We don't know from saccades that consciousness can't be continuous. We just know that the physical impressions on our retina do not map 1 to 1 to our visual conscious experience. The brain does all sorts of things to the raw infor

Agreed, it was a blast to watch people tackle it. In addition to what you mentioned, I'd include Barb's Lunar Magic streams. They were super chill and it was some of my favorite content of the year, getting to watch him in his cre

Barb (creator of Grand Poo World 3) is my favorite level designer and surely one of the best... But I would say peak Mario might have been the 2022 GDQ Super Mario World romhack race. Some of the stuff in that is truly mind boggling. https

+1 for game programming. I always wanted to learn ASM, it wasn't until discovering Super Mario World ROM hacking that it became fun and exciting enough to really dig into.

I find hobby coding to be more fun and rewarding when I do it with other junior developers. I used to teach coding and I've kept up with and continue to mentor some former students so if one of them has a project idea or they want to p

Ayahuasca ceremonies are among the most profound, cherished experiences of my life. I prepare for months before partaking in them to make sure my emotional, physical, and spiritual health is in a good place. And I can't imagine taking

Yeah fair enough, I agree, I could have worded that differently. They couldn't use any of the looping they'd come to learn up to that point.

by vga805 4y ago
I agree with the overall sentiment. I taught for awhile and was happy with the approach I came up with. Students start out with the basics of learning how to loop through a list to transform some data. Once they have looping down, they are

Cracking the Cryptic quickly became my favorite pandemic past time. So much so that I've started making variant Sudokus - it's relaxing, creative, meditative, and I find it quite fun. I definitely second the suggestion to check ou

It's nice to see accessibility discussed right away in the introduction lectures.

This resonated with me as well. I taught university philosophy courses and programming courses at a bootcamp. Trying to explain stuff like this to oneself or to others was for me the quickest and most thorough way to truly understand the co

How would "intelligent" fungi have any bearing on the stoned ape theory? The former seems neither necessary nor sufficient for the latter.

I removed caffeine from my diet and replaced it with exercise and one or two quick logic puzzles in the morning. Once in awhile I meditate but I haven't found consistency with this yet. This combination has been a nice morning routine

I watched the prequel first, Army of Thieves, which was actually pretty good. I watched Army of Dead for just the one lock picking character, hoping he had a bigger role, and was sorely disappointed that I wasted as much time as I did. I wa

Hadn't heard of this book, I'll have to check it out. It vaguely reminds of something Dostoevsky's Underground Man might have said when he was railing against the utopian rationalists. edit: typo

And before they cry that gender was mentioned in the title: that's just a phrase, and no one would have said anything if it said "one-man" company.

is there any reason to think starlink is even a possibility? i dont know much about all this but browsing reddit a few weeks ago that seemed like the meme possibility, in the same way that GME was going to go to $10000 a share.

Where does data storage fit in? So far it seems like a request/response cycle as a service, but without storage it seems limited in use cases. Or is the idea to send data from napkin to firebase or something?

Do we know that Yahoo finance really did this? Or was it just someone with an agenda and photoshop on reddit?

Multiple brokerages shut down buying due to the collateral requirements that were raised. Robinhood seems like the fall guy here, hopefully people start asking the right questions about the collateral and the manipulation there.

Why would you be surprised if he was Satoshi, but seemingly not so surprised if he organized a collective Satoshi?

It's worth mentioning that those 10s of billions have never been touched. This is a very strong case for Len to be Satoshi.
