Also a shoutout to Doc Gussow's resources in case anyone wants to get into harmonica blues: https://www.modernbluesharmonica.com/home.html https://www.youtube.com/…

Fantastic! Da Vinci types like the author here always remind me that there was a time when being an artist and an engineer were one and the same, with no clear distinction between the two.

Let's not forget viruses like Covid which is still wreaking havoc on our brains. Danielle Beckman is not only researching this space but trying to make us more aware: https://ucdavis.a…

Weirdly self assured article? Still good someone is talking about history but let's not forget that securing the budget for all of this came out of the literal war chest of the US. Not an Elon fa…

Unfortunately this is unsurprising; with bad actors like Meta there are likely many potential "dark patterns" put in place. I can imagine e.g. security risks involving sensor data exfiltrati…

The great https://neocities.org/ is still alive and well.

Historically the distinction wasn't as stark as it is today. Hypertext as envisioned by Ted Nelson and furthered by Tim Berners-Lee's contributions through HTTP/HTML was much more read-…

Amazing. I guess SARS-CoV-2 is much less stable in comparison to HIV? Higher mutation rate and other shifts vs broadly neutralizing antibodies? Anyways, it would be nice to fully "solve" COV…

Expressive amongst some others do sell some impressive physical modelling tech: https://youtu.be/oTxgHJMpKsw?si=ibIX9pxxl3Sh--xy If you want to delve deeper on the open source side wi…

Great "old-school" article! Intrigued to try Odin sometime. > One interesting thing: in Odin, similarly to Zig, allocators are passed to functions wishing to allocate memory. Contrary to …

Good analysis; more focus should also be put on asymptomatic reinfections: "Even a mild or asymptomatic infection can harm the immune system. It can make you susceptible to new diseases that migh…

It could be tied to sars-cov2 and its detrimental longtime effects on general immune system function amongst other things related to the pandemic. To be checked on a case by case basis of course, don&…

Good analysis but did many people miss what happened during the Tham Luang cave rescue? One of his most terrible (failed) marketing stunts: https://www.quora.com/Why-did-Elon-Musk-accu…

The book is also so great because it highlights the creative aspect to programming - which they show could (also) be seen as an art form; where it's beyond the utilitarian aspects of coding; ap…

At least the article implies that he was conflicted about his decision to go at it again. His surroundings pushed him towards that end; see quotes above. - harmful (to him / his family) - deplete…

That's not what I read from the article at hand. Harm was done by going forward; not only to himself but to his wife and children. "Mallory had premonitions about what might happen. Before l…

Humbly asking which parts of the article would get refuted by the books you listed? Why and in which instances could they be seen more authoritative? Toxic masculinity could arguably be extended to co…

Extrapolating from my specializations I can say that most documentaries on arte.tv - even while having to compress and simplify by necessity - had been pretty poignant actually. German and French do…

In that case HN has finally strayed from its "hacker ethos" and objectively wanting to find out about any system over time at least; truth. Eventually right (even) in online discussions? No …

Why is this flagged?

Maybe art is just not your thing? I mean the program is in its name quite literally? It's objectively good that this gets government funded as cultural institutions and creators get highlighted. …
