This piece from Linus on why he doesn't like debuggers resonates with me [1], although I confess I use Python pdb quite often.

Antártica is not the best, Fruki is IMO the best one. David Beckham was one photographed taking one home (not payed publicity).

Or easier if your peers write code which is on average below the 90% mark.

I'd rather see a limited number of targeted ads on my electronic devices than a ton of random ads polluting the city I live in.

Very similar approach is taken by the Lua developers.

I’ve just had a good laugh from your comment! Maybe water on the floor was for cooling.

I use a Chromebook for development as well. It's $100 computer and it is just fantastic. I throw it around with such peace of mind, and the battery life is just incredible!

It has only one issue for me, it does not have enough power to run MS Teams on the brownser, and the Android app does not work well.

A native app from MS would be quite nice :)

Things can always be looked the other way. Being short is an opportunity to play the game in hard mode, showing everyone that you've got skills. Sometimes I wish I was born black for that reason. Well, at least I'm short, happily married, and working on my path to meaningful accomplishments in my career :)

Nice tool.

A question to others who enjoy similar tools:

What is the difference between this (or other) tool to a simple document on Gdocs with multilevel bullet lists?

To the marketers at Boom, what a terrible name choice for an air plane company fellows.

Same in Brazil and Canada.

Interesting. But how do you keep track of archive links that are relevant to you?

You don't need to go far. In C, function prototypes in header files are boilerplate ;)

If well done, single file projects are not bad. They save a lot boilerplate code. It is also easier to find things, since it is all in the same file.

EDIT: I'll go even further. Programmers who don't like long files are probably using the scrollbar to navigate around the file. Vim saves me from that bad habit.

I’m 33 yo. I’ve tried snowboarding for the first time last year. I’m pretty athletic. I had some basis from skateboarding. My heel edge was perfect by my toe edge not so much.

While practicing my toe edge, my board got stuck in the snow. I fell on my back and hit the back of my head on the packed snow. I had a mild concussion.

Never doing that again.

I wonder if skyiing is safer with respect to head injures.

Amazing project. Poor marketing. Authors should put in huge bold letters: no in app purchase, no subscriptions, no spying on you, just pure joy of gaming.

This is GOLD.

Let's say you are editing a source code file. You save and you run. Than you tweak, save and run again. But then you would like to go two changes in the past, but you did not make a commit. Very recent changes are not captured by backup systems, no matter how competent they are.

I'd like to have all my files under git, for every save - and frictionless. I know it is a lot to ask.

This is the single most awful web experience I had in my life.

I'd look at the comment above as complement, now you know what not to do (:

I am glad they are using System Verilog. It is hard for me to understand why SiFive chose Chisel as RTL language. I think that quietly slows down the RISC-V adoption. I honestly tried to understand the advantages of Chisel, but I can not see any. There is an answer on Stack Overflow regarding Chisel benefits, it is just embarrassing [1].

Sorry, I just don't see anything new/interesting on this piece. Did I miss something? Those are just all very well known points.
