Recommend me good e-reader in c/[email protected]
[–] [email protected] 1 points 3 days ago

i have a pocketbook touch lux 4 and a boox page. both are good at their own thing: the book trades a bit of battery life and a higher price for being able to run any android app like tachiyomi, etc.
my recommendation is look through what e-readers are supported by koreader, the best e-reading app, and also, get something with physical page turn buttons and enough/expandable storage.

lemon. always lemon. if i get more than 1 scoop, then salted caramel or something with chocolate (like bounty, snickers, oreo, crunchy, dark chocolate, etc)

Is Lemmy your "main social media app"? If not, which one is it? in c/[email protected]
[–] [email protected] 3 points 4 days ago

no, not really. i kinda quit social media in the sense that i no longer use reddit, instagram, twitter or snap. they were all just too addicting. i log into lemmy once in a while, to see what's new, since there are some nice niche linux related communities, but apart from that i'm only on youtube (when i'm eating) or on discord (few small-ish servers). i don't really care much for news or polictics, and if i really need to know what's going on, i check the front page of wikipedia or ask my friends. i'm still struggling with using my phone more that i'd like, but this week i took a break from discord and youtube, with mixed results so far (see: i'm on lemmy), but overall it's been really freeing to not be on them and have a bunch more free time.

What is your directory structure like for programming? in c/[email protected]
[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 weeks ago

i use coding/languagename/project, where most if not all projects are git repos. so, coding/python/shira, coding/java/datetime examples i have some wildcards for the languages, most of my serverside js stuff lives in coding/node-deno and most of my fullstack webdev stuff lives in coding/webdev

i used to have the coding directory on a hdd, but moving it to an ssd helped a lot when installing things made with node, among other things.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 weeks ago

I've been using brave search on my pc and phone for maybe 6 months now. i still use google like 10% of the time if i'm searching for something that isn't in english, but otherwise, id even say for many things brave returns better results than google

new-ish RSINOA layout (discuss.tchncs.de)
 

i saw recently that there is a first algorithmically optimized layout added, RSINOA. i'm wondering:

  • is it actually good?
  • is anyone using it?
  • how much better is it than normal thumb-key english (if it is)?
  • is it worth learning it if i already know the thumb-key layout without looking at the keyboard?
  • is it in it's final state? or are big changes to the letter placement expected and i should wait before learning it?

thanks!

type-safe GroupBy (key) function i wrote (discuss.tchncs.de)
 

i made a type-safe GroupBy function.

/**
 * Groups array of objects by a given key
 * @param arr array of objects to group
 * @param key must be present on every object, and it's values must be string|number
 * @author telepresence
 * @license CC-BY-4.0
 */
function groupBy(arr: T[], key: keyof T, defaultAcc: Record = {}) {
    return arr.reduce((acc, val, i) => {
        const compValue = val[key];
        if (typeof compValue !== 'string' && typeof compValue !== 'number') {
            throw new Error(`key ${key.toString()} has values other than string/number. can only group by string/number values`);
        }
        if (!acc[compValue]) acc[compValue] = []
        acc[compValue].push(val);
        return acc;
    }, defaultAcc);
}
  • like lodash's groupBy, but by key and not function
    • group an array of objects which all have a key in common into an object with keys matching all the different possible values of your common key
  • type-safe, no unknown's no any's
  • does not copy arrays ([...array]), uses push
  • supports selecting by keys, where the key values are string / number (although you can easily add symbol support)
  • shared for free under the CC BY 4.0 license - only attribution is requred (link to this post is fine)
  • custom default accumulator support, if you already know the groups beforehand and would rather have an empty array than undefined.

example:

const data = [{
  "name": "jim",
  "color": "blue",
  "age": "22"
}, {
  "name": "Sam",
  "color": "blue",
  "age": "33"
}, {
  "name": "eddie",
  "color": "green",
  "age": "77"
}];

groupBy(data, 'color')

would result into:

{
  "blue": [
    {
      "name": "jim",
      "color": "blue",
      "age": "22"
    },
    {
      "name": "Sam",
      "color": "blue",
      "age": "33"
    }
  ],
  "green": [
    {
      "name": "eddie",
      "color": "green",
      "age": "77"
    }
  ]
}

TL;DR i've sucessfully wrote something using generics in typescript for the first time, and i think it's pretty epic.
