dang. Do they avoid high typing requirements, or have a workaround of some kind? I often wonder what my backup plan would be to any kind of hand injury, let alone missing fingers. I used to do a lot of carpentry but my fingers are intact.


it has nothing to do with server side business logic. It's simply that javascripts package manager, npm, was widely adopted to server / node needs. And then the notorious "node_modules" folder, which was before handled by server compilation, became a part of clientside dev too because it had so many goodies in it, so now the client was de facto having to do the same build as the server, so, by "server side code", I think it's safe to say what they mean is "node modules".


it comes down to the Inspector for me. I've had zero problems thus far right clicking on elements and then clicking on the relevant CSS exposed. I don't think anyone should actually be reading through CSS docs (will admit I'm a solo dev here so got it easy), and I'm afraid this could make the Inspector more confusing.

furthermore I suspect a very large % of people do not realize you can actually edit and save your CSS directly with Workspaces.


for the first 30 seconds with the "Submit" button I thought it was a crowdsourced analytical thing though. Almost bounced. Might be worth changing the wording but otherwise agree


I think many addiction treatment programs looks specifically at the negative impacts of your "zoning out" though. Zoning out is just a brainstate, probably as old as (human) time. But if it's causing your self esteem to drop, to miss deadlines, etc, then -those- are specifically the problem. I think it's no surpise that as we continue to remove nature from our environment, we turn increasingly to digital media to get these pseudo-meditative experiences, and we should not entirely blame ourselves for this dystopian state of affairs.


i dont think theres any 4d chess involved, the poster is just saying that what appears to be self effacement is actually alignment with the greater powers that be. the story looks better for them this way. say you're bartending in the trendiest club in town and you spill some drinks on the VIPs. you agree to whatever punishment the VIPs dispense, because you dont want the punishment of the club owner.


how much time should he do, HN? he seemed to willingly avoid thinking of money as real. but we also have a financial system where this could even happen. i feel those 2 factors should be weighed against each other.


TIL "obverse", ty


his "go wild" sounds like it's blaming the nurses, which it is partly, but I think moreso he's trying to point that this situation is just pretty awful. Or at least he should be trying to focus on the bigger picture. I certainly don't blame the nurses for showing up to work and trying. But I think we can all see how the 'path of least resistance' and financial incentives also leads us to this 'medical factory' type of treatment of people. And that's not the nurses' problem, that's just all our problem.


the original Processing textbook: https://mitpress.mit.edu/9780262028288/

I don't know if the code is still executable with current Processing, but this book enabled me to finally start my own self-learning coding journey. It's basically a visual introduction to programming.

10 years ago I was figuring out what to do with my life, knew that I liked the idea of coding, but had found the Comp Sci curriculum at my college a bad fit at the time, and disheartening.

I finally took this book on my own, and spent a bit of time every morning.

The emphasis on design set it apart from so much of the other material I was coming across in trying to get started.
