martinlofgren··on Differences Between Dating in Sweden vs. the States
I'm Swedish, and I reacted then I read the article: do everyone really know what fika is? Obviously not. Fika is a coffee or a cup of tea, accompanied by a sandwich or something sweet, not after a dinner but as a small break during the day. There's a social aspect of it as well, you don't take a fika on your own.
martinlofgren··on Docker Hub Hacked – 190k accounts, GitHub tokens revoked, builds disabled
Yep, it's only possible to give full access there. No read only.
martinlofgren··on Playing with model trains and calling it graph theory
I thought a lot about this a few years ago when my son was very much into building train tracks. I had just taken a first course in linear algebra and started to work out a mathematical solution to this very problem. It is still one of those projects I wish to complete... someday when there is more time. Guess it will be when I have grandchildren.

I tried to give an user read-only access to a private repository on GitHub a few weeks ago, and from what I could tell it isn't possible.
martinlofgren··on Show HN: Minimal game with procedural graphics in JavaScript/GLSL
I'm on mobile right now and couldn't play it, but looks good. Nice work!
martinlofgren··on Show HN: Turtle.audio – a music sequencer inspired by turtle graphics
This is absolutely beautiful! My wish for a tool like this is to not have it in a web environment, but as a Jack-pluggable standalone program. Then it could be used for real music composition.

But anyway, this is a really nice little app!

martinlofgren··on Continued progress porting Emacs to Rust
That's beautiful!
martinlofgren··on ReactOS releases 0.4.8 with experimental Vista/7/10 software compatibility
I was using an EEE 1001px as my main computer until a few months ago when I finally got myself a new laptop. I did replace the battery two years ago, but besides that it all parts were the original from 2010. I really like this little computer.
martinlofgren··on Ask HN: What habits make a programmer great?
Empathy is both a cognitive and an emotional thing. Getting to know your own emotions is great and helps in understanding others, which can be achieved by meditation. But it's also necessary to think about other persons and the reason for their behaviour. Here, I think, literature and other narrative forms of culture helps us. Read good books!
martinlofgren··on Fixing bugs like it's 1988
This was great reading. Sure brings memories to life. My first encounter with computers was an old Spectravideo SVI-728 which I tried to program.
