The former have been table stakes for interpreted languages

I used to think so too back in the day when I was getting into Clojure. It was much later when I realized that when Lisp people talk about the REPL they’re usually talking not so much about the interactive CLI where you can evaluate commands easily but more so the ability to connect your program to a live session where you can quickly evaluate forms within your text editor and in the context of your running application, which enables much more interactive development than in other interpreted languages.

There are other nations in the world…

I’ll try to take your comment in good faith. And of course - that’s the trouble with issues like these isn’t it? I did find some reports online of the same but when there’s no consistent way of making it happen, there’s no simple solution either.

I ran it with no extensions and out of the other chromium-based browsers I’ve tried it’s the only one where I’ve had crash issues.

I actively used Vivaldi for several months until recently - on my Mac it would intermittently crash for no reason I could find. I’ve since switched to ungoogled-chromium - it’s only a couple of weeks so it’s early days but so far it’s been very stable.

New York, US only - can the title be updated to reflect that?

It’s just another word for a group, same as people.

Personally, I’ve spent a lot of time on both film and digital and currently I’m a lot happier with the results of my film work. Is it a combination of the camera, lens, medium, and process? I’m sure it is. Could I get similar artifacts out of digital? Probably but the key difference is that I don’t and the medium for me doesn’t make me want to. In the end creative work like photography has as many manifestations as people and your comment reads as rather dismissive than curious.

No keyboard backlighting

When was the last time Apple had a laptop without keyboard lighting?

A long time ago I made a smart home automation web page for my Kindle, so that should definitely work.

Tipping culture has been around in Germany for a long time, hasn’t it? It’s surprisingly common there

I agree with this. I was curious and tried it out just now - there's a good part of the inside corner that is draggable and a decent amount outside as well. The cursor changes to indicate resizability make it quite difficult for me to make a mistake here.

Creating calendar events and reminders too!

A feature set that has remained unchanged since Siri’s launch…

Why would checking be duplicated? One would need to check only the discussions in this case, since issues will be created from discussions once something is ready to be worked on (as I understood it)

unless their parents decide otherwise

is a key point I’d say.

keeping screen on

`caffeinate -d` in the terminal - it’s built-in

I’ve been building sites since around 2000 and I’ve used HTML tables a lot (including for page layouts, remember those days?). There was a time when I thought I was fluent enough to not have to look up HTML or CSS docs for most things. But I don’t think I’ve ever actively used the DOM API that this article mentions so I learned something new today.

Do you have an example you can share?

We have about 30 services with each managing their own terraform state. We also have a shared infra repo managing some top level items. We haven’t run into any issues (with any regularity at least) that I can think of but I’m wondering if this could be a good tool for us as we grow and things become even more complex?

This kind of search could potentially compromise someone's privacy

Well this is true

It's conventional to do so

Where do you see that? e.g. I just checked https://openai.com/about/ and it doesn't say where they are based. I have no associations either way, but I usually have to work hard to find out where startups are based.

I think regex gets some of its hate from people writing painfully complex matchers. 99% of my day to day regex use is simpler string searches on the command line or in my editor. I’m really happy I took the time to learn the syntax (spent about a week on it around 15 years ago) because now it doesn’t get in my way.

Is it being maintained? From the README:

Closure Library has been archived. We no longer see it as meeting the needs of modern JavaScript development, and we recommend that users look for alternative solutions.

Edit: ah I see that the Clojure folks are going to take that up. I missed that!

Sorry, where are you quoting from? I can't find that in the comment I replied to or in the original article.

Mine told me the entire date instead of just the month.

But who takes random street scene photos?

What do you mean? This is exactly what street photographers do.

Can you elaborate on that? Why would it be significant and what could it mean?

launching a terminal at a location

A workaround for this (especially if you have a terminal always open) is to drag the file/folder you want to operate on into an open terminal window, which will paste in its path.

Doesn’t `=` handle indenting?

What was the incentive structure, and how was your experience overall (esp. comparing to traditional companies if you’ve worked at those)?

Social networks

It doesn’t bill itself as a social network though. Neither does TikTok seem to.

Is that a recent thing? I’ve taken trains several times of the last few years and always had an overwhelmingly positive experience.
