The worst hobby

Bad things happen when you combine the self-affirming nature of beliefs with a habit of consuming lots of morally-charged content.

Many people make a daily routine of consuming large quantities of highly partisan content about “what’s going on” in “the” “world.” Enthusiasts of this hobby call it “staying informed,” and insist it isn’t just a personal habit but a civic duty.

This content consists of new beliefs (“news” for short) about what happened today or yesterday, presented with an authoritative tone and little moral ambiguity. They identify clear villains and clear implications. They often give instructions from hand-selected experts on how smart people should think about this.

Это напоминает мне историю одной клиентки, которая как и многие другие пыталась контролировать терапевта. Она попросила ее не фрустрировать до тех пор, пока она не будет готова. Я и не фрустрировал (и не собирался). Спустя, скажем, год она сказала«ну всё, я теперь готова, давайте пожестче». А я продолжал не фрустрировать. Спустя какое-то время она возмутилась: как же так, я же просила меня фрустрировать, а вы этого не делаете.

И я такой:«фрустрирует, правда?».

Applying The Blue Angel Criteria To Free Software

If you set out to build a local-first application that users have complete control and ownership over, you need something to solve data sync.

Dropbox and other file-sync services, while very basic, offer enough to implement it in a simple but working way.

Sure, it won’t be as real-time as a custom solution, but it’s still better for casual syncs. Think Apple Photos: only your own photos, not real-time, but you know they will be everywhere by the end of the day. And that’s good enough!

Imagine if Obsidian Sync was just “put your files in the folder” and it would give you conflict-free sync? For free? Forever? Just bring your own cloud?

I’d say it sounds pretty good.

In XDSD everybody is motivated to produce tangible and meaningful results. That's why we don't use emails, Skype, HipChat or phone calls.

How about we measure the amount of times programmers touch the lines. Instead of counting the number of lines we’ll count how many times they were actually modified—we can get this information from Git (or any other SCM). The more you touch that part of the aircraft—the more effort you spent on it, right?

I called it Hits-of-Code (HoC) and created a small tool to help us calculate this number in just one line.

What a nice idea! I installed this program and ran it on Betula and Mycorrhiza codebases. For Betula it's 26350 HoC, for Mycorrhiza it's 137208 HoC. Yeah, Betula is still comparatively young! Hey, what about Mycomarkup? 23443. Oh wow, just a little less than Betula. I expected a small number.

Building great software is hard, and developer tools should be helping you without the headaches. RapidAPI for Mac is exclusively built on macOS, so you should easily get the hang of it. Every feature is built intuitively with quick mouse or keyboard shortcut access.

GQL is a query language with a syntax very similar to SQL with a tiny engine to perform queries on .git files instance of database files, the engine executes the query on the fly without the need to create database files or convert .git files into any other format, note that all Keywords in GQL are case-insensitive similar to SQL.

Везде речь о флетвайте. В случае сетей я указываю адреса только тех точек, в которых я был, и при этом там хорошо. Во всех местах из этого списка дают воду, если попросить. Цену указал, где помню.
