There's some examples of games that you can repurpose to play other existing games on BGG, and they link to lists people have made: https://boardgamegeek.com/thread/1812755/list-of-games-you-c...

More like repurposing games to play other existing games rather than the overhaul you're talking about.

Just because you can't think of a way to measure mental health doesn't mean a way doesn't exist. Scientists have ways of measuring subjective things in objective ways, they're not perfect but you can read the papers where they define them and then find other papers where they're useful.

No, that's not what anyone said. The conversation is about copyright...

But it wasn't actually a race, the votes were all finished being cast and were just being counted, so concepts like "having a head start" or "being ahead" don't really apply.

The image linked in that comment has a background that's half car and half building, but yeah apart from that minor detail it's pretty hard to tell.

Roc is a similar functional language that doesn't automatically curry functions and doesn't have partial application, the Roc FAQ has a few reasons: https://www.roc-lang.org/faq.html#curried-functions

If you think that's a simple notes system I'd hate to see what you think a complex notes system is!

Actually, the code before does nothing if dataset is set to 'animals', 'turtle' or 'formal_turtle', most of the branches are inaccessible. Also, the extra else clause that raises an error and the line

    elif dataset = 'formal_turtle':

are both invalid syntax.

I think 'clean up' here means something closer to 'convert this to what I'm trying to write'.

I think JSON is just used as an intermediate representation which is normally generated by a library in a more general purpose language.

Actually, the % syntax eagerly evaluates the log string, you need to pass the variables as arguments to the logging function like this: logger.debug("bla: %s", myvar).

It's such a subtle difference that I only notice it when my IDE underlines it :/

pg8000 [1] is a Postgres library implemented in pure Python. I've spent enough time trying to get psycopg installed on MacOS and Docker that I appreciate just being able to pip install it at any time.

They're CJK 「quotation marks」, so not actually ASCII

There definitely are accessibility testers who do this kind of thing professionally. The latest episode of the Linux After Dark podcast [1] had Florian Beijers [2] as a guest who livestreams accessibility testing of open source projects and does professional accessibility consulting.

Sounds a bit like Jane Street with OCaml

I have a "cute" email address and don't regret it. I just spell out the entire email address letter by letter, although because I have an uncommon name I have to spell out my name every time anyway.

I've heard that Zed's vim mode is very good, although I'm not a vim user so I can't confirm.

I think Roc (https://www.roc-lang.org) is trying to be that kind of practical, less theoretical FP language. It's strictly evaluated, doesn't have currying, you can learn it without ever hearing the word monad. It's still very young, so the tooling isn't there yet, but it already has a formatter and linter built into the compiler.

There are swastikas all over Taiwan (卐, the Buddhist kind) so probably not a big deal for the designers.

I think GP was referring to the terminal emulator, which normally has the minimal GUI decorations depending on the terminal emulator and your desktop environment.

About a year ago, I tried writing a language that transpiled to Go with many of the same features, in my research I found other attempts at the same idea:

- braid: https://github.com/joshsharp/braid

- have: https://github.com/vrok/have

- oden: https://oden-lang.github.io/

See this post for a comparison of Python datetime libraries. The datetype, heiclockter and whenever libraries have different types for them.

My experience in the Python world is that the vast majority of projects only need one or two plugins for their linter, if any. Ruff has implemented so many flake8 plugins that I'm sure it has covered 99% of projects' linting setups.

The tsunami reports I've heard here on the north coast are that it ended up being less than 1 metre tall, so luckily nothing to worry about.

You're right, but venv requires an existing Python install to create a venv. Pyenv is for installing multiple different versions of Python to create those virtual environments.

My Chinese knowledge is limited, but I believe that words in Chinese would not be affected by accent in the same way. This is because even though, for example, in the Taiwanese accent sh is pronounced like s, "shi" and "si" are still "spelt" differently and consistently when using a phonetic writing system like pinyin or zhuyin. There are still individual words that are pronounced differently in different regions, but that's not related to accent.

> you can't have bright red lights that turn on-and-off when you're not braking because that light behavior is legal but reserved for the braking mode.

Except in the US where indicator lights (turn signals) can be red.

dbt-core is open source and can be used locally.

> I'm sure if we had music numbers, we'd see well known classics up the charts too.

We do have that, don't we? The music charts are literally a chart of the most popular music.

Interesting, why do video slot machines use APNGs?

I agree with the main point of this article, I see news more as entertainment than information, but the part about BLM didn't make sense to me.

> the total number of unarmed blacks fatally shot by U.S. police in 2019 was 14

I don't think BLM were as concerned with the absolute number of unarmed black people killed by police in the US, more with the fact that unarmed black people were more likely to be killed by police than people of other races. Plus, most other countries manage to fatally shoot zero people every year, regardless of race.

Dismissing the problem of police shootings just because people die more from other things feels like the author already had a negative opinion of BLM (as they say in the article) and when they found that statistic it validated their opinion and they didn't interrogate it further.
