Oi, you can't leave us hanging like that! I'd really love to read it if you have a link, even more so after the extra paragraph in your HN bio.

Last week's discussion on this has over 500 comments, many of which are quite insightful. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=26080760 …

Until you pointed it out I hadn't realised requests had stopped bundling all its deps¹, but that does make me wonder to what extent bundling distorts the usage statistics. For example, packages …

I feel like the increase in wheel width may have had the biggest effect on the tyre shift. It was hard to buy a road wheel that wasn't a 15mm bead width a few years ago, and it is becoming diffi…

I wonder how much of it is basically a fashion issue? It is increasingly unusual to see new road bikes near me that are basic tubular constructions, to the point it feels like part of the design is…

While Nuntii Latini¹ shut down a couple of years ago, their back catalogue is still available². It won't put the new in news, but it is less stale than Latin ;) ¹ https://en.m.wikipe…

chubot, I have to say I really admire your dedication! I only follow oilshell to the extent that I read your articles and dip in to the wiki, but even that is a joyful learning experience.

> You don't edit raw png values either However, for when you want that there is SNG¹. It can be a surprisingly fun way to perform minor corrections or filters to an image. ¹ http://…

[Expanding my comment from another post on this¹] Direct links to the PEPs themselves, to perhaps save others a little time. Although the LWN write up linked in TFA is a very nice introduction to the…

I don't believe I said it was. Let me try again. My point was that in the places where you may choose to use something else, but are firmly in the ocaml camp, then F# feels like it would be a mo…

So, I get that there is momentum behind rust but I'm still a little surprised they're hitching themselves to that as opposed to F#. I'm obviously missing the big picture, but it just fe…

This is one of the many cool things that zsh comes with out of the box. It ships an autoload-able colors¹ script that does largely the same thing as your fragment, but you know it available wherever …

While all of these projects are amazing. Yours is the one that made me genuinely smile, thanks for that! There is something so charming and cheerful about creating a niche tool to support a niche to…

Also, loved that show although I never really knew why. In series four, there was an episode in the US¹ that I found quite jarring with the discussion of prehistory finds only a few hundred years ol…

For those unfamiliar, the UFCS¹ wikipedia page has an explanation and a few examples. ¹ https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Uniform_Function_Call_Syntax …

It does support multiple queues. The example you pasted shows how multiple queues work by giving unique queue locations in NQDIR.

It probably isn't as user friendly as you'd want, but you can reload the playlist by firing commands at a socket. See the "JSON IPC" section in the mpv man page, and specifically …

I'll note that nq's author also has a redo implementation¹. Being generally redo curious I've wondered a few times why their other projects(nq/mblaze/etc) don't use redo…

From the man page: NQDIR Directory where lock files/job output resides. Each NQDIR can be considered a separate queue. Whether or not the default should be $XDG_CACHE_HOM…

There is a nice subplot in After the End - Survival¹ that deals with this. In it a well respected cardiologist finds himself useless post collapse, and is suffering from obvious minor medical problem…

Nice doc series. Perhaps consider linking your lines documentation in the todo docs as an example of how to shift items around? Every time vimwiki/todo.txt comes up here people bring up how to …

Pretty much my experience too. Every few months my distro collects up a bag of patches, then I receive a new build. Once every couple of years I get to go through a version${new}.txt help file, ofte…
