It’s how everyone who’s anyone does code reviews!

Lots of the industrial programming languages are very different to “normal”/“proper” programming languages, and I can see them being localised.

For example, this is (PLC programming language) Ladder Logic code:

It works great and the config is simple. It doesn’t handle triggering things from those keypresses, but you’ve probably already got something running that does that.

I happily use Helix for Rust, etc projects, and as a general editor. I switch back to VSCode for TypeScript/Svelte projects because the plugins make it more productive for me. I do miss the editing experience and need to check if there’s a VSCode plugin that lets me not confuse my muscle memory.

Helix was the thing that finally made me remap my caps lock key to esc.

I just had mine arrive yesterday!

I have one of these

I’m using ch57x-keyboard-tool to configure it, because I don’t fancy running some random closed-source Chinese code (the manual links to a file on Google Drive). It also means I can move over my config when I switch to Linux.

I have two keys for switching between headphones and speakers, and some set up for shortcuts I forget (like ctrl-shift-e for the network monitor in Firefox). One key types “hello” just because I can.

I’ve got the large knob controlling volume, and I can click it to toggle mute. The other two are currently set to scroll, but I don’t need that as my mouse has better ergonomics for scrolling.

I still have plenty of unused keys and it’s got three layers so I won’t be running out in the foreseeable future.

This isn’t a million miles from what bitcoin mining does, although in that case they’re trying to find hashes that start with a lot of zeroes.

I just saw the top two thirds, and had to scroll to see the punchline and the comm - what a pleasant surprise! For me, it’s the 3DO but that’s too niche for most.

That doesn’t work, though.

For a recursive acronym, you want something like ADFRA Didn’t Forget Recursive Acronyms.

the neater and more consistent your handwriting, the easier time the Nuwa pen will have captur[ing] it

That’s me out then

This might even be an appropriate use for AI (maybe even running in-browser for privacy). I imagine something that reads your prompt and auto-populates a few rings to search. You review and edit the suggested rings, then click search.

I just went to look for answers this, since report-uri.com is killing its free tier, and the lowest paid is way higher than my usage justifies. What did you settle on?

I like the take that they have in that thread: Perforce is forking Puppet into a non-Open Source version (but they’re keeping the name).

That’s the first argument they make in their petition.

Not funny, but interesting!

Their spelling was moulded by the US

The oldest known container: github.com/bib/Jonah/Dockerfile

I’ve been coding long enough that I still think of that as a fairly new thing in JS.

I thought we were finally agreeing fully! My understanding of the question is “what is the difference between a third (of a pizza, say) and a half?”

1/2 - 1/3 = 1/6
1/2 = 1/3 + 1/6
a half is one sixth more than a third.

btw, I fixed my Kagi screenshot since I’d missed a word from the question (reading comprehension’s clearly not my strong point today)

Ah, you’re right - I misunderstood jbrain’s point to just be about the “relative to the original” understanding. Guess I’m no smarter than Google’s AI.

The ExplainXKCD is great:

In truth, no such spoon is present on the probe, and Europa’s icy crust is too thick to be penetrated by a spoon of such size.

The author is either being very tongue-in-cheek or very literal and humourless and I’m enjoying it both ways.
