I agree with you. It seems like the self-hosting community is getting a decent bit of attention right now, and the ability to deploy browser-based applications is the way to go for many FOSS projects.…

In my county, the all white schools have extremely well-funded PTAs, parents willing to volunteer in the classroom, and students who receive at-home tutoring from an early age. A couple of miles away,…

RIP Atom. I wrote a lot of code in Atom back in the day.

I think that maybe the previous poster was trying to say that recent versions of Krita are more stable, i.e. they crash less often. This has been my experience. Should you try Krita again, I recommend…

I should give it a try on Android again. I tried loading it up on my phone once and wasn't able to access some of the menus. I'm sure it's better-suited for a tablet

FWIW, I can't recall Krita ever crashing on me this past year. I do agree it's a younger/less mature project though.

Not OP but I have been loving Krita. More intuitive interface with many of the same features.

I agree that math exists in of itself, which is what makes math so beautiful in my opinion. To clarify my argument, I think the learning and usage of math by humans is what introduces such messy yet i…

I think your argument is sound, but I disagree. I think that CS degrees should absolutely involve more "humanities." CS, or any other "STEM" field, cannot be separated from human h…

I love reading through link directories. There's something so personal about how we curate the internet. My linkroll[0] has been evolving for a few years now, and it's been a nice way to org…

Before I started feeling comfortable with the official Racket docs, Beautiful Racket served as an accessible reference as I began exploring the language. I'm turning into a big Racket fan. I just…

Pandoc filters and templates can be used to create complex, replicable workflows like this. If you want to generate diagrams using pandoc, there are filters that will do that for you. I dream of a UI …

I agree with the parent comment, but I also see your point that there is room for innovation. For example, the article mentions flexboxes. Flexboxes have many possible behaviors that a tool could help…

You have all the right ideas, in my humble opinion. You found an interest in Python, so that's worth pursuing. C is an amazing, powerful language that you should spend some time with. Other CS co…

Yo, I love your site. Put it on the list of upcoming additions to my linkroll. > the project got my excited about building “quiet” websites I could not agree more. Complex backends have their place…

I saw in your profile that you’re a geologist, and as a geology major about to finish my undergrad I’m particularly interested in how you’ve used Inkscape to create scientific cartoons. I’ve been usin…

Thank you very much! I'm nearly done with a backend rewrite, which I'm super excited about. Just bookmarked your site for inspiration, I love how smooth it is to switch languages.

The same thing happened to me, and I wrote an angry blog post about it[0] It is not OK for Google to lock me out of a phone that I own! LineageOS (running on a different device) has changed the game f…

I've been using GNU stow for a while, and I love how portable it is. NixOS might indeed be the answer, but it might be a while before that ecosystem is mature enough for my laptop, server, etc.

The app is great in my opinion, giving less-technical users a simple interface to toggle their VPN connection and see at a glance where their chosen server is on a map. If you're comfortable sett…

An ethernet connection is a must for me. Unless I'm traveling somewhere and need to log in on someone else's network, it's a pain to deal with wifi's slow speeds and connection iss…

I agree with you entirely. My third reason to stick with Firefox is to vote with my feet regarding browser engine diversity.

Location: San Francisco Remote: open to it Willing to relocate: yes Technologies: *SQL, Python, R, HTML/CSS/JS, Bash, Perl, Racket Email: email@jacobhall.net I'm an outgoing and motivat…

I'm a huge Letterboxd fan, and have thought for a long time that a similar app could gain traction for books. I hope this is it!

Does anyone have a favorite that has worked well for them?

If this was codified into a repo, I'd absolutely deploy one or two of my own.

I agree that crypto should be discouraged, unless/until it's made to be power efficient. It's sad to see tech bros and academics evangelize wasteful technology like this, and Mozilla bu…

A lesser-known feature of Pandoc that I love are filters [0]. They allow you to manipulate the document tree mid-conversion before the output is generated. I've been working on a forked Pandoc fi…

Krita with a Wacom tablet on Linux is more plug-n-play than any other setup I've seen. I never had to "learn Krita," just the occasional Google to get me back on track. Thank you to eve…
