My company is in the process of retroactively making our crud "ledger" into a bitemporal one.

We're all pretty keen for it. Looks great!

First make one little square,

...then draw the rest of the owl

I have one that I'm making open source, as a digital montage system.. think of the "memories" feature on Google photos or iCloud.

I basically want that to be open and free. I'll have an app to easily create albums, and have the ability to connect to any storage or montage service you like. You could even make your own app connect to your own storage and montage service, so it can be completely diy. I have a few write-ups but I'm transferring it to notion at the moment so I won't link it just yet.

My other idea is a "bill hamper / consolidation" service, that I'm doing for my sister. She pays me a flat fee each week and I pay all of her bills for her. Gives her peace of mind and allows her to save some money without stressing on paying random bills

Well the article in question was discussing an interesting new phenomenon.

And Gaza is rarely on TV news.

(I'm sure you can appreciate the difficulty in talking about something without linking it. But I am not going to link it nor discuss the contents because it will instantly close the thread. I have fallen for that too many times)

Make sure it's organic, grass fed, lead solder

They're special case because they don't care about environmental protection unless there's a photo-op and headline that the government can use to look good.

"because demolishing buildings is bad for the environment"

Ok. Remodel them instead.

Is swift going to do what flutter and kotlin multiplatform cannot?

It is not even close to the same. And I think the point is that hot patching.

If you could save a JavaScript file and it would reload just those functions in your running app with out changing state, then that would be closer.

As far as I am aware it is near impossible in every language that isn't lisp

I'm actually learning Common lisp for working on my side projects, and those are the reasons that really make the whole thing stick out and amazing.

* Live image and hot-patching is great. You edit it within the code, so if you're making a shooter game, and you're in a "draw HUD" function, you can just edit the code to be what you want and send that function to the running image, to update while you play. Any time you spot a bug, you can isolate, correct, and verify, while still running the game.

* Macros can be thought of as a way to make the code more readable. CL is almost thought of as a "programming language to make programming languages in, so you can solve the problem".

For instance, if you think about any amount of boilerplate. Macros allow you to write it once (because you have to) and then use it in different places at different times. CL makes boilerplate nonexistent.

I do this for wrapping up ncurses functions: to use colours, you must turn on and off certain bits and flags. You can imagine that there's complications when you want to draw a box, or colours text, or coloured underlined text, and there's all sorts of flags and state involved. To write it in C or Python would be a few multi line functions. In lisp it can be made as simple as (with-colours a-colour (draw-text) (with-underline (draw-text))).

uh oh, sounds like somebody has the case of the Mondays!

Has there been any situations where DOSP is shown to be effective and complete? They always seems to be a closed source core.

I tried DOSP for one of my projects and it was impossibly hard, because the business and the system was built with closed source assumptions to begin with.

Now I just do everything open source from the get-go and it is much easier.

Slack allows you to set this as your preference. I turned it on so that control enter Will post.

Did that after I posted too many things by accident

I recently threw out the "do the MVP" mindset.

To me, MVP means "Do part A to a good enough level of perfection where customers will buy it, then release and get customers, support them while then working on part B as a value-add.." - often, in my mind, all parts, ABC add up to the whole package value. I don't want to break it apart.

I'm actually trying to do more planning and outlining first, and it has worked reasonably well for me.

Start with an outline of the different systems and how they connect, then outline one of those systems, the inputs and outputs to it. Then break down further into how does it get the input, where does it put the output, etc.

It has been remarkable in that I can actually feel joy for what I'm making again. I have also tried to start a blog with doing this type of "open design" - but blog writing requires its own planning and refining, which is an extra workload that I didn't intend to put on myself..

Heat and humidity comes after the decision to not walk and turn everything into roads and parking lots

The concern was that they would stuff it up and have troubles trying to dictate 48 keys.

Not that someone was going to listen in and steal it

Sounds like the problems of acrappy economic theory

Sorry I was thinking too fast

"negative brackets" is a truly great idea and would help many affected by poverty.

but that's not what adherence to UBI is about. UBI is about chasing an impossible utopia and burning ourselves in the process so that we have greater net inequality.

Stick to the plan. Call out anyone who tries to make UBI work by watering it down from our idealized end-goal as nay-sayers. Clutch to random hypothesis'.

It's the only way we can bludgeon them through democratic or revolutionary means.

Generally the people who want UBI "as promised, no compromises" also don't see why we can't just print money to make the shortfall

You could have one green and five blue

Last knowm configuration could also be from 2 years ago

3 things:

1. abandon, freely. Archive, move on. work on something else. 2. simplify, harshly. cut all features. only one remaining feature to do: "release" 3. Breather, take a break, re-discover why to do the project. What are hurdles? move around them.

Lately one of my projects was dragging on, and I realised a few things: I didn't want to abandon it, but even "simplifying" made the project worthless. The hurdle was that I was trying to make it a "Product" and live that "side-hustle" life, but i really don't want a second job, so I moved around it by turning it into an opensource thing instead (still in the works of making it 1-to-1 with what I had, but it's a breath of fresh air now, instead of a weight around my neck)

Then you reboot in the last known good configuration.

My home PC's /boot drive keeps filling up with older kernels due to updates

I don't get it

"on behalf of the group"

Naturally, once you reveal your name, you are no longer anonymous.

Oh absolutely. I'm glad that we are openly at that point of the discussion.

I was contending the (perhaps old) notion that "anonymous" was some gang of outlaws that have a secret hideout where they plot the next parliamentary blow-up guy fawks style

We r legion xDDDD.

I have always felt that "the power of anonymous" is precisely the power that we claim it has. (As someone who was involved in 4chan from 2009 until 2015)

"Anonymous" is just the default username for someone on 4chan.

Asking "What does anonymous thinks" is a roundabout way of asking "what do <random people> think?" - but with the latter, you have to face reality that people think this. If we use the former, we can group everything together as a big scary "alt-right 'anonymous group' (tm)" and not have to face the fact that real people have opinions.

I was paying cooler 5 dollars a month so I didn't have to worry about any of that.

And for that it worked remarkably well

Do you pay $5 a month for lattes, or $20 a month for lattes?
