watashi can be 渡し rather than 私, which means "to pass" I can't find a dictionary definition for 渡し跡, but you can find a few blog articles talking about old places that use this word. I think it might be an older Japanese word. https://shinsengumi-kanko.com/nagareyama-noda/yakkarawatashi...

Don't know whether it's intentional but there seems to be a 20 character limit on the username length currently

Maybe use ISO8601 time instead so that timezones are accounted for (if team members are in different parts of the globe).

I use Arch Linux for everything with one exception (see below). I first got into Arch about a decade ago, and at this point I'm just used to it. I know where things are, and if I don't, I can easily find out. I don't trust other distros to give me the amount of full control of the system that Arch does, basically.

The other exception is in WSL, I use Ubuntu, but this is mostly because there isn't an official WSL Arch Linux distro.

I personally have only had substantial experience with react (and its hooks), but the replacements for hooks in this library look very exciting to me, though I'm not sure I fully understand them on a first reading. One thing that react hooks require is the placing of hooks at the top level of a function, which precludes dynamically creating hooks in a loop, or lists of effects. While usually there is a way to achieve whatever you're trying to achieve anyway, it's still a bit of a restraint on what you can write with React. I haven't tried Solid yet, but if its hooks are nestable and composable as the Reactivity page says, then this could enable some patterns that were previously impossible with react hooks.

I mean, Preact exists and is somewhat widely adopted, and it's literally just React but with a smaller bundle size.

I do appreciate how they don't even have a backend for the website (though saying that, I'm not sure why most Linux distributions would require a full backend for their website)

Ever since seeing this video I've been wondering if there's some deeper mathematical basis for this puzzle, because of the extremely regular pattern that it happens to produce.

For example, the way consecutive digits are actually in order, but separated by a single square (and looping around the edge of the board)

This kind of mapping format is also used in the visual novel/mystery adventure series Zero Escape. That series uses it in a somewhat meta way though, in that at some crucial points during the point, you are required to go back and play other routes in the map in order to continue in the current route, in a sort of Escape Room "piece together the different clues" kind of way, only the clues are scattered across different paths in the story.

Wait, this happens in the UK too!

The final point would perhaps be made a bit better if the embed was the same width as the article. I was wondering why there was horizontal scrolling when the content fit on screen at first.

Most of these have been originating from bekk.christmas it seems, who are making advent calendar blog posts leading up to christmas about a variety of topics under various .christmas domains.

They apparently did it last year as well, so the domains have lasted at least a year, then?

The figma integration currently appears to require logging into beta.diez.org, but I cannot find any sign up option anywhere. Is this feature not available yet?

Do you mean "meter" when you say rhyme? Because there's two things I can see here. First, one of the things that English poetry does is the tones and lengths of syllables are meant to be read in a certain way to create a certain rhythm, almost like creating a song (or more accurately, a rap). Then again, Japanese rap does exist so maybe not?

The second is that there are only five Japanese vowels and each one creates a single syllable nucleus, so every character rhymes with 20% of every other character, so there's no real skill, and hence, no real point in rhyming? (Whereas English has far more syllable nuclei and words can vary between one to many, many syllables, so certain words are quite hard to rhyme)

When I first learned Haskell it took a very long time before I started figuring out what monads, applicatives and category theory were, and even then I only ever took a deep dive into monads specifically, basically so that I could do side effects.

For a long time in the beginning I was just learning about the basics, like list manipulation functions, and typeclasses. There was quite a journey in between beginning Haskell and even starting to look at the learning material for monads/functors etc.

Apparently homebrew currently pulls a temporary ruby to run its installation on linux where it can't expect there to be a systen ruby installed. Something like that would have to be done.
