Hmm spatial awareness? Left is code right is docs and if you have any other windows they don’t break that?

Have you looked at the Lisps / Scheme / Racket yet? Racket in particular makes it quite nice to go #lang blah at the top of the file and change the parsing or interpretation entirely.

For example all the documentation pages and guides are written in scribble:

https://docs.racket-lang.org/scribble/getting-started.html#(part._first-example)

#lang scribble/base
 
@title{On the Cookie-Eating Habits of Mice}
 
If you give a mouse a cookie, he's going to ask for a
glass of milk.

And it has an entire document markup language created in it, which can output pdf or html. But you can still use @ syntax to drop in racket code to compute values. Or create templates.

I even implemented a #lang which took assembly directly (and interpreted it, it was for a class).

So if you are really after full control, you should study Lisps and their macro systems.

Careful you don’t come off as a sealion.

Though this is a thread about Wayland so eh.

Thanks, you made me feel old today. Get off my lawn.

I’ve watched some slow typists program, and I think I have the answer. If it takes you a while to type the code out, you are much more likely to stick to the first approach that works, and not rewrite it as much.

Uh you’re not going to believe this, but the parents volunteered the boys.

Loved that book.

The moon is 400Mm away. Never say thousand kilometers again, the mega is the way.

Imaging if we started saying millions of kilobytes instead of GB.

You only read about the ones that get caught though…

Or even wood that is 2’ by 3’ by 3mm.

Forgot about deli meet for the weight. It’s always “I want 300 grams of sliced black forest ham”, and not whatever that is in imperial. Do they use ounces for that?

I mean that role was SpaceX. Give them lots of money and get cool rockets. It was going great, and it was great for his image as it’s not very political. But I guess he got bored.

My dad said that a lot

You remember that orange soap you put in dry hands, and only after lathering wash with water? My hands never felt cleaner than after autoship class.

The way I think about this is somewhat novel I think.

Suppose we have two universes, everything the same, except one has free will and one doesn’t. Would an observer be able to tell them apart? I don’t think so. Maybe I just lack imagination, but I don’t see how free will would actually make a difference.

Your decisions determine what kind of person you are and what kind of person you are determines what decisions you make. They are self reinforcing and tied up together in a big path dependant knot.

Wanting to be a better person also only works if you let it change your decisions, bringing you one step closer to being a better person.

Also check out the book “seeing like a state” if you want a whole book version of that quote, including examples in forestry, city design and education.

There’s also the chemistry version. If you are not part of the solution, at least you precipitated.

Yuuup. Webpage with a button to toggle a bit in a database. For a personal project, 1 day. For work? Well it took a few weeks to figure out what database, what pass security review, register our subdomain, get traffic quota, revise security review, mocks, learn new framework as the old one is deprecated, set up a new group to run the app as, including admin group and two person authorization to make changes. Set up autopush and test environment. Uh key rotation schedule. Reply to comments on the design doc questioning our choice of database. Translations for all the text.

Only took a quarter.

Edit: oh I forgot gdpr deletion service. But we got to hand that off to another team. Yaaay.
