jdsleppy··on Partisan attachment: How politics is changing dating and relationships (2020)
The big ticket, agreed upon progressive priorities are still for the benefit of all: Green New Deal, Medicare for all, accessible higher education. I find it more difficult to find policies for the common good coming from conservatives these days. Does anyone have examples?
jdsleppy··on Go 1.17 Release Notes
With two years of working in Go at two companies, I have never had to write that. I can't remember writing the equivalent in Python over even more years, either. The 99% case is building a list/slice, not removing from one.

Have you ever had to remove elements from a list/slice?

jdsleppy··on Best place to find dev shops and freelance developers?
I have no idea, but as a freelance developer I'm interested in being there, too. The best I know of is the "Seeking Freelancer" post here every month. That'll happen next on August 2nd.

If your job is the right size for a one-person team, you can send me a message.

jdsleppy··on Ask HN: Would issue “bounties” make contributing to open source more appealing?
This would be good for me since I don't have bandwidth for a full time job now but I want to work on something. I would need a way to acquire a lock on an issue so nobody can swoop in and finish it right before I open my PR. Let me know if you want to go through with the idea.
jdsleppy··on Show HN: A cyberpunk theme for Python desktop applications
I just dug through the whole Pyrustic/Hubspot ecosystem, and it's cool! I haven't looked at GUI dev in Python before. I wonder if there's an simple way to reduce the already easy HubSpot install to a layman-friendly "double-click this". I'll be on the lookout for a reason to use this.
jdsleppy··on Ask HN: Cheapest/easiest way to host a static site?
Depending on how you measure cheapness and easiness, I made https://codasite.app

You type HTML and click "deploy." It's free.

jdsleppy··on A directory of handmade webpages
I just finished a site especially for writing handmade pages: https://codasite.app. Users get a Monaco code editor (think VS Code, but in the browser) and they write one HTML, one CSS, and one JS file. Hit "deploy", and you get a website.

It's targeted towards people learning to code, but maybe the handmade webpage crowd would like it, too. I'd love to get some traffic and feedback.

I wasn't expecting to launch today so it's still on a $5/month server. God speed, little guy.
