mnemonk··on Why you should choose HTMX for your next web-based side project (2024)
I disagree about the magical part :)

It is truly refreshing to see how simple web development can be when using htmx instead of a full spa framework.

I do full stack (angular, aspnet core, mssql) development in my daytime job. It can be... tiresome. Past couple of years i've built a soundcloud-like app using htmx, nodejs, express, mysql. Loved every minute.

Thank you for all your effort on htmx.

Edit: spelling.

mnemonk··on LIGO detects most massive black hole merger to date
Man, that is some seriously interesting phenomena:

"The black holes appear to be spinning very rapidly—near the limit allowed by Einstein's theory of general relativity," explains Charlie Hoy of the University of Portsmouth and a member of the LVK. "That makes the signal difficult to model and interpret. It's an excellent case study for pushing forward the development of our theoretical tools."

mnemonk··on Getting Past Procrastination
Wow, that's a really insightful perspective. I often feel a bit ashamed for reading hacker news or some other IT related post on the net when I know I should be doing some development task. Your description pretty accurately describes the reasons for my procrastination. Thank you.
