Interesting. It seems to me that client side prediction and lag compensation (aka the basics for games in similar situations) would have been a viable alternative.

These rely on undoing within a game's constrained environment. There isn't a way to magically undo any possible procedure with side effects.

I appreciate the fact that they waited two months to check their results before sharing them publicly. However, this feels like there should be a hypothesis for explaining the difference other than “this fits expectations”, especially after the author extensively claims this does not fit their own expectations. Did I miss something?

I applaud this man's commitment to dishwashers.

But you can buy a large box of generic and very cheap no-bullshit pods at Costco, and simply put two or even three of them in a load.

If you're going the multi-pod route, you can put one in the dispenser and one or more right in with the dishes.

His crusade is in part about how pods are overdosed which can reduce their effectiveness (and be super wasteful)

The game looks fun and pretty, but am I the only one to get triggered by the “replaced” naming?

All of these eager claims to replace humans feel violently antisocial. (And in many instances hypocritical if coming from people who defensively claim “it's just a tool”…)

What's wrong with micro dependencies? Isn't it better to download only the code you need? Also it makes refactoring easier, and enforces better architecture.
jgtrosh · 4 months ago
Is this bait? The whole context is malicious software being installed en masse via NPM micro dependencies.

Please note that 'each' is fundamentally different from 'xargs'.

  echo 1 2 3 | each "rm {}"
is the same as

  rm 1
  rm 2
  rm 3
while

  echo 1 2 3 | xargs rm
is the same as

  rm 1 2 3
I would rather say that 'each' replaces (certain uses of) 'for':

  for i in 1 2 3; do rm $i; done

jgtrosh · 4 months ago
It's equivalent to xargs -I {} rm {}

       -I replace-str
              Replace occurrences of replace-str in the initial-arguments
              with names read from standard input.  Also, unquoted blanks
              do not terminate input items; instead the separator is the
              newline character.  Implies -x and -L 1.

jgtrosh commented on Show HN: I created a cross-platform GUI for the JJ VCS (Git compatible)    · Posted by u/_pvzn

Nitpick: "[name-redacted]" and "jujutsu" are already heavily used terms. Googling around for information about this, at least for me, is pretty difficult. [name-redacted] is an international olympic sport, jujutsu is one of the most famous traditional japanese martial arts, jiu jitsu is the most popular submission base for MMA...

I'd love a rebrand or rename in order to avoid having to work around the name collision.

Best of luck!

"[name-redacted]" is quite distinct and searchable imo

jgtrosh commented on Niri – A scrollable-tiling Wayland compositor   github.com/YaLTeR/niri... · Posted by u/atlintots
ryukoposting · 4 months ago
I've been using i3 for 7 years now, and my immediate response to the scrolling thing was "why?" and after reading your comment, I'm still trying to understand. As one would expect for any tiling wm, the screenshots only show how pretty it can be, and don't really illustrate how it helps with productivity.

Would you mind going into more detail on what actually happens when you move horizontally? What happens when you have a fullscreen editor, then slide over to a half-screen browser? Do you only see half the editor, or does the editor get squished?

One thing I desperately want is a tiling wm that is also a browser. Like if surf ran a practical engine and was more deeply integrated into dmenu.

jgtrosh · 4 months ago
The WM has no job being the browser, but yes we should be able to run firefox without tabs like it's surf (and stop doing part of the WM's job). But you cannot practically do that.
