Primary driver for me (finally) learning tmux.

I think you can see this when you look at the downvotes on that GitHub issue on any comment which suggests gating AI access behind a paywall.

Sadly, seems to be abandoned. Last commit a year ago.

That was surprisingly awesome.

Yep, this. I’ve switched to Claude for a while (because I can’t afford max plans for both) and nobody in the real world has any idea what it is I’m talking about. “Oh it’s like ChatGPT?”

Might want to consider a different name, given there’s an open source CI/CD tool called GoCD already. https://www.gocd.org/

Yeah, who’s going to pay for your single person AI-powered vibe coded calendar organiser product when nobody has a job?

Ah I hadn’t considered keyboard layouts.

Fwiw, that’s actually an En dash not an Em dash. You need a Shift in there to get an Em dash.

Right.

Thanks. It's an emotive issue, and starting a conversation with "yeah this issue doesn't exist" isn't a great beginning. Fair point that my comment wasn't exactly constructive either.

Having a productive discussion doesn't start with someone outright denying an issue exists, especially in such a white male dominated industry as ours. I'm sorry having an opinion means the only possibility is I'm vying for popularity.

No, I don't. That's nonsense. But two people doing the same job and achieving results should be paid the same. It's not that complicated.

Not OP, but one I came across yesterday was `date`.

Linux: `date -d '10 mins ago'` Mac: `date -v -10M`

There's loads of tiny differences like this. Often just old versions, and you can pull in the latest with `brew` or something.

Interesting, thanks for the reply.

I wonder which password manager the original Project Zero thread referred to then if not 1Password.

I'm confused by the "not affected" remarks. I thought the issue was any site which passes data through cloudflare could be leaked by requests to a different site, due to their data being in memory. Have I misunderstood?

Haskell and Erlang come to mind. They probably weren't the first either.

How does this compare to JSON when gzipped? I imagine any size benefit of stripping colons and parenthesis is negligible compared to a good compression.

I think ajanuary's point, and I felt the same thing, is that the name "Optimizely" does not say anything to me about A/B testing; hence, it doesn't do what it sounds like. In fact, I thought it was something about code/performance optimisation based on the name.

The thing which excites me the most about this is the little LTE symbol in the corner. Why? So your navigation app can update itself. We had a Range Rover a few years ago which had some crazy proprietary satnav in which was stuck with five year old maps and a buggy interface. Software Update, mmm.

I'd love to do that, but the rights are a bit tricky. I'll talk to him about it, but it's not really his permission to give.

Great! I had some fun with this, and learned why Mobi is so frowned on by ebook publishers. Glad it turned out ok though. I'm reading it on my Kindle at the moment too.

If it's not too much trouble, could you paste your error into an Issue on Github? I haven't done any testing on the Makefile, so it'd be good to get it fixed up if I've done anything stupid.

Do you have Pandoc installed?

I'm surprised that even turns out as well as it does. Those headers are for pandoc. I guess Github must have a Yaml extension to their Markdown renderer which is picking it up.

Maintainer here. Surprised but pleased to see this make it onto HN. I'm glad people find it useful!

I had a desire to read the book over Christmas, but found the PDFs really weren't very useful for reading on my Kindle (and the book being out of print meant it wasn't feasible or cost effective to acquire the paper version). As always, the perfectionist in me kicked in and I spent much longer than necessary converting it, so figured someone else might be interested in the fruits of my labour.

Not to be confused with the National Library of Australia's Trove website. http://trove.nla.gov.au/

Considerably fewer hats.

3. Software Engineer

18. Computer Programmer

What's the difference? We can barely decide what to call ourselves. Is there a correlation between job satisfaction and a disposition towards calling yourself an engineer?

Just run `lua` and you'll be dropped into a REPL. It's pretty basic compared to some other REPLs though, and I'd also be interested in hearing if there are some more user-friendly options out there.

My main gripe with the current REPL is it doesn't print anything to the screen without an explicit print call. So myMethod(x) will not print anything, instead you have to assign the result to a variable and print it or wrap everything you do in a call to print.

Yes, that's true. It is pretty easy to simulate this with a short TTL and a heartbeat though.
