That compound command issue is infuriating, and really what drove me to make this.

FWIW, the prompt is easily adjustable in a `.claude/PERMISSION_POLICY.md` file in the project.

It's also quite easy to remix the script with claude to meet your needs. Right now it prompts the user and runs the script, so it's a race. If you added a delay in the script and increased the hook timeout in `.claude/settings.json` you should be able to accomplish what you're looking for pretty easily.

I suppose my advice would be: when you're hand-rolling rolling particle effects in Canvas, test them on more than just an M-series Mac.

Aza Raskin's earth species project is working on this. He gave a ted talk about it recently, in which he also recommends a couple books.

Author here.

I've been thinking about minimal models of evolution. I concluded that you need information to be copied with some transformation, some death, and a way for the information in question to encode its ability to avoid death.

In trying to simulate that, neural networks were a good fit since they are universal function solvers. I definitely took some inspiration from NEAT[0], though I'm not using any form of crossover.

This is a reasonable conceptualization, IMO. However, the problem isn't that we can't access the information in a black hole (there are other places in the universe where information becomes inaccessible).

The problem is that black holes evaporate. If the particles released via evaporation don't contain the information about the particles that entered, information is lost when the black hole is completely gone.

The proposed solution is that the information is encoded onto the surface of the black hole and thus into the hawking radiation being released from that surface.

Flutter is Canvas-based on the web, so this post well-could mean a switch to Flutter. Hard to see how non-Flutter customer Canvas-renderer for Google Docs makes sense.

Perhaps Flutter. It uses Canvas to render in the web.

Whilst it's obviously powerful, I often find myself wishing math used syntax even half as easy to understand as any decent programming language.

I suppose it's a result of being developed on a chalk board, but math seems be value _terseness_ above all else. Rather than a handful of primitives and simple named functions, it's single greek characters and invented symbols. Those kind of shenanigans would never pass a code review, but somehow when we're talking about math they're "elegant" and "powerful".

I call bullshit. Math syntax is bad.

Multiple configurations are a maintenance burden. So, all else being equal, it's better not to have them. That said, not all else is equal, and configurability can indeed increase the user experience. But if your defaults are so good that very few people take advantage of the settings, you're better off dropping them.

For me the killer feature of ST is multiple cursors. Despite being relatively fluent in vim, that one feature has always prevented me from switching.

CareGuide | Software Engineer | Toronto

We are hiring software engineers to help us improve our online marketplaces: CanadianNanny.ca, Sitter.com, Housekeeper.com, PetSitter.com, ElderCare.com, and HouseSitter.com.

We need to iterate faster on our core features, and to add new things. Just as importantly, we run several unique automated marketing systems (which have powered our outstanding growth) and have big plans for where to take them.

We follow modern software development practices, including TDD, CI, and rigorous code reviews. We are very analytics driven and continuously run a/b tests to inform our product design. Our whole company has engineering-oriented approach.

Our current stack is Ruby, Rails, Haml, Sass, React, MySQL, Solr, Redis, and AWS. We are building mobile app using React Native. What would you add or change?

We are a fast-growing company. Our one-of-a-kind investor group includes over 60 successful entrepreneurs.

An interesting thing about CareGuide: as a tech startup, we employ more women than men, and have a high degree of ethnic and religious diversity. We also have employees in their teens, 20s, 30s, 40s, 50s, and 60s. We hire the best and build careers.

It's a React+Relay single page app talking to a Django-backed GraphQL endpoint.

Django's ORM helps a lot with cleanly serializing the filters. Though we denormalize the label/transaction relationship, since live-filtering everywhere in the app kills performance.

Ya, it depends on the upstream timeout for the process. I'm pretty sure to default for gunicorn is 30 seconds. After that the process will be killed, which kills the thread.

Granted, but the idea is that they would have to compromise Github, Twitter, a private domain, and more before performing a successful attack. That's considerably more complex than targeting one service.

From the README:

  caveat npmtor
  github's servers can be compromised by a court order, intruder, or employee. 
  You should use a secondary means of verification to check all the keys fetched 
  from github where secrecy from courts, intruders, and github employees is 
  of paramount importance.

This is one of the main advantages of keybase.io, though cipherhub has the advantage of not requiring users to opt-in before you can encrypt a message for them.

I'd highly recommend checking out httpie as a replacement for curl. I find the interface much more intuitive.

I believe their intention is to turn NPM into a business offering enterprise support for privately hosted mirrors.

This article is missing pdb++[1], which I would argue is much less buggy then ipdb while having essentially all the same features.

"Migrations specify which other migrations they depend on - including earlier migrations in the same app - in the file, so it’s possible to detect when there’s two new migrations for the same app that aren’t ordered."

This is a fantastic feature. I've worked on projects that use a South fork that only uses a migration number, eg 0003.py, specifically to cause version control to trigger a merge conflict.
