Not only that, but with toolchains like deno, it's almost enjoyable

I wrote some telegram bots in deno and it's got one of the cleanest deploy chains around, just compile to an executable for the target architecture, and SCP it over. Exec is statically linked, and so it just works

But certainly not coincidental

I'd barely say they died. Doom Eternal is full of platforming, something a lot of reviewers winged about, and there are big undies like little kitty big city that fit the bill nicely, as well as the remake of SpongeBob Battle for bikini bottom

It's honestly the best of both worlds. A well built and tested hardware platform with well known specs and manufacturer support, that's capable of running any third party software at the drop of a hat

That and mysteriously disappearing thumb drives

These smart watches are garbage. Even Apple watches have rather short lifetimes

My Garmin is going strong 5 years later, and I've got no incentive to upgrade

Yes, but a better time was last month during the sale

It's Stanford. Protests are to be had against middle America, not those who actually hold power, else you might not get the network effects the school all but promises

Time is a flat circle. I remember when honeycomb launched with a bottom navbar, only for Google to delete it later in favor of a (terrible) phone like gui

Honestly I'd just stick to orca slicer

Let's not forget when they shipped a full page ad for a Disney movie into a browser update

And these days, privacy is basically the only appeal of Firefox. It's slower than chrome or webkit based browsers, hangs out with Safari in terms of standards support, and can't hold a candle to either other browser when it comes to battery life. Why mozilla seems determined to throw that all away is beyond me

Djot is a markdown alternative, created by John MacFarlane, creator of Pandoc and spec author of CommonMark. It aims to fix many of the little issues Markdown has, and does a pretty good job of it, imo.

Post content for those without an account:

I hereby officially announce the Elixir type system effort is transitioning from research into development: https://elixir-lang.org/blog/2023/06/22/type-system-updates-research-dev/

A huge thank you to Fresha and Starfish for sponsoring this new stage. They are also hiring:

 

ExUnit is wonderful, and the functional paradigms that underpin Elixir let us write extremely complex tests in a fraction of the code that would be needed in OOP testing frameworks like RSpec.

But it's not all wine and roses. Tests can quickly accrue tons of boilerplate and repetition.

Using some Elixir features, you can cut down on these, and make tests even nicer to write.

I got tired of hitting ⌘Enter and not having my post automatically go through, so I wrote a little userscript that enables exactly that.
