what

I also just wrote about leaving GitHub Pages for different reasons <https://pettazz.com/goodbye-gh-pages/>. Sticking with Jekyll for now though because I'm too lazy to rebuild my horribly cobbled together 10 year old theme

This is some real nostalgia. I spent all April Fools' Day probably every year in college trying to figure out how to make this work on my DD-WRT'd wireless router until finally getting it.

It also inspired my own method of dealing with Plex server login sharing https://pettazz.com/how-to-really-piss-people-off-with-plex/ in 2015 which also probably doesn't work at all anymore.

That's not the generator, it's supposed to be the site's favicon

I don't have any particular use for this right now but the visualization is so good that I actually followed along and get what it's about. Pretty obvious to say but it's super cool and I wish more projects had this kind of quick intro/overview.

The reason for case counts staying relatively low in those places has a lot less to do with "herd immunity" and a lot more to do with still being careful. Even though a huge number of people were infected, it was still a very small amount of the population overall, not anywhere near enough to affect the transmission rate with no restrictions.

In MA we're not even close to entirely reopened yet, but as we continue step by step the transmission rate is ticking back up unfortunately: https://rt.live/us/MA

But have you actually used a Catalyst app on mac? They're terrible ports as it is right now.

Pretty sure all that'll really happen if you stop tipping is that some poor delivery driver gets screwed. Just stop using the apps, order from the restaurant directly, tip your delivery people.

They're talking about "for general disaster preparedness" in this comment. The OP specifically mentions not worrying about water in the case of COVID specifically.

Just an example number but yeah

The only reason busses are the size they are is the labor cost

They're big because they fit 50 people inside a single vehicle instead of 50 different cars.

Okay, this is a good look into the payment systems of all three, but I feel like judging them solely by that and not by the content of the actual paper is probably not the right metric to use here.

BA doesn't provide an API, and they regularly go after scraper-style "API" implementations that pop up. http://www.beeradvocate.com/contact/

Also, +1 for Untappd integration. That would be amazing.

How do you get any of the last 3?

Look at the third slide in the carousel at the top.

Currying is the process of turning a function that expects multiple parameters into one that, when supplied fewer parameters, returns a new function that awaits the remaining ones.

I think this, along with the whole article, is the best explanation of currying I've seen on the whole damn internet.

Huh. Didn't know they had that option. But either way, along with #3 in the top level comment, Multipool also holds a massive share of the total network: http://i.imgur.com/n9xaRQo.png, and if a lot of that is profit-hoppers, when they change coins, that will leave Dogehouse with even more share.

There's a huge directory of everything from Pools to Exchanges maintained here: http://www.doktorrf.com/dogecoin/index.html

Multipool also has a huge share of the network hashing power, but is designed to hop between whatever happens to be the most profitable coin. So for someone looking to get into DOGE for fun, it's not the way to go.

...what?

I immediately thought of "loon" as part of "balloon" and also "loon" as in insane or ridiculous. It's a perfect name for something so ridiculous with the potential to be ridiculously awesome.

Different library. The one the Globe tweet refers to is the Boston Public Library, right by the finish line. The JFK Library is on the opposite side of the city.

This is what I heard in my head while reading your comment: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8FpCM5cWkNM

I suppose it's probably just a matter of trying to keep things as simple as possible. You're already specifying all the attributes of the nodes you're creating, so you can just as easily then bind them yourself. UNIX philosophy and all that.

Ah, too many letters and too little coffee on my part. Thanks.

This article pops up every few months, but I still love it every time.

"I hate how all video game players generalize everyone else."

I have no idea what that acronym is. Please de-obfuscate.

Because only experts should be allowed to write code and try to build things? I'm sure you were writing shitty broken apps before at one point in your life, just to learn by experience and get better.

I have stuff to say about JIT.
