I played twinkle twinkle little star

I just did it and it didn't jump out for me at all. Odd

I just shared this in the work Slack and everyone resoundingly agreed with the sentiment. Definitely going to pay more attention to this now, thanks for sharing!

I tried to learn dvorak, and colemak, and both ended up requiring too much investment to be worth it. This is very tempting, even though I promised myself I'd stop messing with keyboard layouts

Same as this?

I'm currently implementing my favorite 2 player board game - Raptor - in Ruby, and this article is giving me great ideas for how to structure it better. Thanks so much to the author for writing this up!

Hi, I'm a software dev who was terrified of dance floors my whole life, and nearly gave up hope that my analytical brain could ever get comfortable with it.

But I kept trying, looking for a clever way around the problem, and I found it! This course is everything I learned during that process, and it's currently free for my birthday weekend, so have at it :)

I think it's really useful to describe your product as an alternative to a well known product. Most people will instantly get it, much more so than a long re-definition of the original product.

I have had the idea for this device bouncing around in my head for so long, I just had to get it out and see; does it exist? Does anyone else want it to exist? Or is it just me?

I'd take that bet, will give me more motivation to prove you wrong ;)

Thanks for saying so, always great to see someone examine and reconsider an initial dismissive reaction like that

Thanks for sharing your story. I had a similar moment with the mobile game skinner boxes where I just got repulsed and lost all urge. But I still get sucked into higher quality games, thus, this post :)

Haha love your take on the extreme opinions people have on this game. And yeah, the thought has occurred to me that, like most anticipated things, it probably wouldn't be as exciting as I'd imagined once I was really playing it

I like this idea. Don't know if I could go without `sudo` on my computer though, I tend to use it for work...

Thanks :)

Glad it resonated, and I'm happy that your rule stops it from getting between you and your responsibilities

Yup. Good call. Weather is good these days so taking a long walk will be on that list :) Also photography, calling people for a random chat, and reading fiction.

Huh, Dota was my big addiction in college. Thanks for sharing that perspective on how to reframe your time spent in a positive way.

I think for me, I would like to turn my many hours spent into a will and a way to help others deal with addiction to videogames, as well as porn and other digital addictions that are not yet taken quite as seriously as physical addictions.

I think that would be the ultimate way of making something good out of all this

Blog post I wrote about video game addiction. Hope it resonates with someone :) Open to feedback

Beautiful lading page and generous app. Thank you for making tools like this that help small-time creators improve their margins :) I used Payhip for my last project but I will bookmark this one to make sure I use it in the future

Wow, the ENTIRE massive ocean of Windwaker with all the islands loads faster than single rooms for other games. And then zipping around it so fast from the sky, all the islands seems so small compared to how big it all felt playing the game as a kid

I always heard people talking about how amazing Vim is, but I didn't get why.

"Like big deal, you can jump around the line, delete words or whole lines. I can do that with option and command. Oh you can apply your edits to multiple places? Have you heard of multi-cursor?"

Only when I was forced to use it (in South Korea) did I realize why people love it so much

So here's a video of a basic use case that requires tedious clicking on a normal editor like vs-code, but which is made super easy in vim

Please let me know if you found this useful so I can make more vim videos like this :)

I wrote this story about my twenties, and I wanted to share it with y'all. I hope someone finds something useful in it.

Thanks for reading :)

Does it really work wonderfully for you? I am often times shocked by how it just can't guess the most obvious completions. Then I jump into VSCode to sanity check, and it works fine there.

Talking about tpope's official neovim plugin

It's the only thing that tempts me away from Vim. Vim does have an official copilot plugin but it seems gimped compared to VSCode. I wonder if that's intentional.

Thanks for letting me know, I'll fix it

Thanks for letting me know about that! No license, you can just use the same download link to download the app again

Thanks! It is indeed Mac only, because it uses MacOS's built in Vision library for the hand and face detection.

Thanks! :) Yeah I'm surprised no one else made it yet to be honest, it seems like a pretty natural use of the face/hand tracking tech

A few people have made this joke, to the point where I'm wondering if there's not a hint of truth in it :p
