I don't get how cold start time would be affected, to this degree, by the API used to render the UI.

Seems like great software, but the website is unfortunately obnoxious. I feel like the overlap between people who would like to create slides in Markdown, and those who would prefer this website over a much simpler alternative, is rather small.

> Try ordering a few icons on Fiverr for example and see how many are repurposed from other sites.

In which case would you order icons if they're not custom enough to be unrepurposable? Just curious, Iconify and some basic composition have been good enough for me so far.

Good read, this is one of those things I've considered doing myself, but never committed to. Having someone describe the experience in such detail is very much appreciated.

> RAM usage often gets close to that 12GB ceiling.

Unused memory is wasted memory. Just because you're almost maxing out those 12 gigabytes doesn't mean you'd be in trouble with less.

I see, thanks for the extra details. I'm pretty sure you can forgo Flask in favour of directly using the underlying WSGI protocol, while keeping the the Web server you are already using (Gunicorn, probably). The Web server would still be a dependency though.

Good point. CORS somehow didn't cross my mind.

This seems useful for related languages, but even then I wonder whether it is a good idea to blur the lines required for code switching.

Couldn't this still work as a service if you run all queries through the front-end?

Jupyter Notebooks have always felt a bit hacky for terminal purposes to me, so I'm excited to give this a shot.

I am convinced [1] most people can fall into handling anything with levity. You see the same thing happening in the medical field, and undoubtedly in more macabre organisations as well (see WW2 testimonies, for example).

[1] Unsourced learned experience, consider with a grain of salt.

> This extension is a static browser-side script which leverages React's dynamic rendering and live component updating mechanisms. At runtime, it waits for the DOM to finish loading, then injects content into a dedicated element (#__oled). Using ReactDOM.createRoot, it mounts a themed layout component that wraps the core UI, enabling declarative reactivity and efficient DOM updates.

Why does a global theme need to load React? More importantly, why does a code repository contain minified, if not obfuscated, code?

I suppose, but these "default" tools have all had their place in the market because Emacs or Vim are evidently not meeting demand. Which gets to my point that telling someone to "just switch" is not very helpful.

Love it or hate it, VSCode has become the "default" for the ecosystem at large, especially for Web development. For me personally, moving away would end up costing me more time (in getting alternative text editors to work with my tooling, or doing without) than it takes me to dismiss these popups.

Doesn't take away from how awful it is that a corporation usurped the ecosystem like this, but I am not idealistic enough to fight the current.

This should be at the top, since it's not clear at all from the RFC.

> The neurologists delivered their verdict: He appeared to have a textbook case of frontotemporal dementia—known by the shorthand FTD—specifically, the behavioral variant of that disease. It targets a network of brain regions sometimes described as underpinning one's sense of self. As the pathological process advanced, it was carving a different person out of Lee's raw substance.

Neurological diseases are the closest thing to supernatural horror the natural world has to offer.

While I'm not too happy about the influence of a de-facto dictatorship on my region in the world, recent events have shown that the turbulence of a democratic government, and its private interests, brings with it its own share of trouble. Let me know when a Chinese private citizen takes out newspaper ads for a European political party or becomes powerful enough to directly influence a war in our borders.

For anyone wanting to avoid this mystery, putting the game aside, I highly recommend NixOS. It has its quirks, but the declarative configuration basically forces you to document each system, circumventing many of the issues satirised (?) with this game.

It still gets complicated if you have many interconnected devices to manage of course, but at least it limits the obscurity of the most complex devices in your network.

I'm open to alternatives though, if anyone has some to share.

Are you able to elaborate on your custom database? Not that I'm in the position to offer any advice, but you got me curious about it.

If possible, you shouldn't rely on colour alone for important cues. You could try underlining them, since that's often the expected behaviour for URLs anyhow.

With an unfortunately named victim, I suppose.

Have you tried approaching this with the kanji instead? That seems like free tokenisation.

Given the website name, I expected them to put more focus on the devcontainer spec as a local alternative. While it's not quite as consistent as running containers server-side, I've seen on-boarding go from a workday or two to before-lunch after properly setting up a devcontainer.json. Honestly, at this point it's more trouble explaining how to set up an SSH key than the development environment.

That being said, I would've preferred it if they were based on something Nix-ish rather than full-on Docker containers, but alas.

Thanks, this fixed it for me.

Thanks for the link, I loved reading it. When you spend all day building software with sometimes unclear and questionable purpose, the straightforward approach of "just" selling a produce when in season seems deeply appealing. Greener grass, I suppose.

I personally like to explicitly know beforehand if a JavaScript or Python package comes with type annotations, which is not a given.

I'm aware it uses the same algorithm, but the end result is still worse. Before Typst, I tried typesetting in HTML in an effort to escape LaTeX, and the results I got using an implementation of this same algorithm was very similar to what Typst ended up achieving, which is noticeably worse than LaTeX.

Mind you, I loved programming in Typst, and I wrote some plugins before it got its package manager, but I ended up moving back to LaTeX for this difference in quality of the final output. I should do some in depth testing at some point, because I am looking to switch back.

Why doesn't that count as market manipulation / insider knowledge? Genuinely asking, I thought the U.S. prosecuted any position based on non-public knowledge (such as the upcoming release of a competing product).

How's the typesetting and justification nowadays? Last time I committed to it for a few months I found the latter to be about the quality of HTML with a better linebreak algorithm.

This scam almost feels quaint compared to contemporary LLM astroturfing.

Working with Node and Python made me want to pivot towards a batteries-included ecosystem like .NET, but I'm somewhat stuck with what I'm getting paid to do for now.
