ybbond··on Ask HN: What's the best book on religion?
A Little History of the World by Ernst Gombrich, is the best history book that also cover religion that I ever read.

It covers the surface od reasonings, dark history, the problems

ybbond··on Ask HN: It's 2022. Where should I direct the youths to learn about programming?
I always recommend my relatives or friends that interested in coding to learn React and make their own website which contains some logic.

Apart from npm and yarn, they need not install any other tool or builder. Also they can see the results in near real time.

I think the ability to see the result of what they code right-away will keep their interest for the 'fragile and prone-to-stress phase'. Proven my architect older brother and 2 of my friends continue to make website and learn other webtools or language till now.

ybbond··on Ask HN: My annual plea for dark mode
an alternative, using third party application (Hack on iOS and macOS) is my ninja way
ybbond··on The Front-End Developer's Guide to the Terminal
the thing with newbie is no overhead and teach them lessons. leave tweaking and aesthetics for their own time. if they really are into the terminal, they will find their own way and time to decorate em.
ybbond··on Origin of the Bluetooth Name
I knew about this information from the same video. Great explanation from great channel (and person).

The article is a nice source to read tho

ybbond··on Show HN: Plain Org – A new org mode app for iOS
'non-emacs', does (neo)vim counts? if yes, there is orgmode.nvim[0]

ybbond··on ExpressVPN employees complain about ex-spy's top role at company
correct in some part, but I think other main reason people use VPN is because their ISP block access to porn. VPN allows them to watch
ybbond··on No More Medium – Build Your Own Site (2019)
I also tested on iPhone 12 Mini and RealMe R3.

I got the same problem as them

ybbond··on Show HN: Create static HTML backups of your Slack workspaces
this is great tool! even though the implementation for me would be too late a month.

I am sure, others will find this useful

ybbond··on Libreddit: Private front-end for Reddit written in Rust
Finally I can browse Reddit without VPN!
ybbond··on Gitly: A light and fast GitHub/GitLab alternative written in V lang (pre-alpha)
I knew vlang from Volt, been waiting for 3+ years. I agree with some of the parent comment.

But I hold no grudge for you, keep up the spirit and good work.

I hope the project went well

ybbond··on Purelymail – cheap, no-nonsense email
I tried Purelymail and though I trust the service, Runbox's web interface left much to be desired. I also have mail went to spam with Fastmail that makes me paranoid and always BCC my gmail account for every important email.

One thing that I don't like with Microsoft and Google's mail service is the need to create new account to have a custom domain mail.

ybbond··on Purelymail – cheap, no-nonsense email
same case with me. I've been using Fastmail for 2 years, but moved to Private Email 2 months ago, and currently using Office365's Exchange.

After 2 occurrences of my mail goes into spam folder, I became paranoid and always BCC my gmail account for every important email.

In the end I say "what the hell" and subscribed to O365. Google Workspace is too expensive for me.

ybbond··on Ask HN: What habits have you managed to change?
Hi, if you don't mind would you please elaborate on life risk because of coffee? Is it kidney related?

I can drink up to 4-5 mugs of ground coffee a day. The mug is exactly the size of SBUX's venti size. It's not regular, I can handle a day with only 1 mug or none at all on very rare occasion. Lucky me, my SO and friends help me with reminding to drink a lot of water.

ybbond··on Show HN: I made a new kind of Bible app
I also have difficulties to find good iOS app for Catholic. Nah. It's very hard for me to find any downloadable version of Catholic publications.

Anyway, that's too bad that you received that hostility. I have 2 mormon friends in my high school. They are chill and fun to hang-out with. They often invited me to join their church, but I can reject without making it a big issue.

ybbond··on Xcode 13 adds Vim mode
I yelled "WOW!"

XVim2 is getting more unstable for each new iteration of XCode. I am putting my trust in Apple for this one.

ybbond··on Show HN: Auxl – Modular API Client for macOS
that matters, at least to me. that makes me prefer Paw over Insomnia and Sublime/neovim-kitty over VSCode
ybbond··on Neovim 0.5 is overpowering
using coc.nvim, with its extensions coc-typescript, coc-eslint, coc-prettier works great to me.

even though there's an expected minor performance hit, it still faster than vscode

ybbond··on Neovim 0.5 is overpowering
when you do

```:s%/search term/replacement ```

it will load preview window showing the replacements you'd implement. neat feature I always like

ybbond··on Sublime Text 4
FWIW Sublime Text do have "multi cursor editing" mode that can do some basic column mode editing.

Add to that vi keybindings to ST, and you can get better and faster "column mode-like" editing.

ybbond··on Developers Who Use Spaces Make More Money Than Those Who Use Tabs (2017)
That's a great idea...

until you have to review the code on SaaS Git host site

ybbond··on 1Password for Linux
Very nice! The UI is not pretty, but the UX surely is great. Bitwarden also provides true black theme for OLED. Website auto-detect key works well on Safari, but hit-and-miss on other browser (just like 1P is—or was).

ybbond··on Developers Who Use Spaces Make More Money Than Those Who Use Tabs (2017)
Actually, I like tab. It gives people more choice on how their code looks like based on their editor's preference.

But no, I cannot —even sneakily, manually— enforce tab in my company(es) code bases. Reasonable person uses formatter which opinionated config set from the first commit.

And I like the formatter decision better. If it is automated and reduce unnecessary debate between devs, why not?

ybbond··on Atlas, a hopefully better engineering IDE
thank you, great podcast channel and episode you shared there.
ybbond··on Show HN: React Flow – library for creating node based editors and apps
some company with overflowing features from products that needs to have typecheck but very limited in time, and/or already complicated repository(es).

yes

ybbond··on Ten years of OP-1
I kinda agree with your cynical view, I often view that way too.

But I think not worth defending further than this. It will end up trash talks.

ybbond··on Obsolete German Units of Measurement
In Indonesia especially the island of Java, many people use "Ons" that means 100 Grams. The unit used for rice, flour, eggs in small retail store.

My father said that the unit adapted from Dutch's metric system.

The pronunciation is the same to standard unit "Ounce" that I got confused when I first learn about units in elementary school.
