Yeh got the same problem on firefox, had to kill it.


Yes it is made with Crystal


I read somewhere that typically crystal is adopted by ruby developers

not sure if there is something similar in Python


Nim maybe?


Nim is probably closest, but it's probably more influenced by pascal, modula-2, Oberon... something like that iirc


it is, it's still fairly complex.

wish there is something simpler but statically-compiled with python syntax, something like crystal but for python developers.


Scala 3 with Braceless Syntax (scala-native for x86)

kotlin seems to be the Java trend now,anyway, don't know much about java


Not sure if it helps, but as someone who is a big fan of scripting languages like Python and someone who loves playing with all kinds of programming languages...I found Scala, Clojure, and Kotlin to be a much more frustrating experience than Python in a lot of ways. I wouldn't say there is enough in common.


I figured he was referring to Ø used in Danish.


Yes, but the dot-zero also has a letter to confuse it with.


Oof that is rough


Yikes, yes, I was expecting bad, but not that bad.


It seems to be an incredibly heavy site at least on my work computer, locks up the browser on scrolling the pages and severe latency on clicking actions.


It shot my CPU usage up then locked up and finally crashed my firefox tab. Second try it seemed to work just fine.


I was just thinking about purchasing a subscription last month, glad to see the price has dropped, I will definitely be buying it now,, also seems like they allow using PayPal which is a bonus. The results I've gotten on kagi at far superior to Google so I am happy to make the switch


Yes, git generally stages just hunks with the patch add mechanism, but it is possible to stage single lines, but it is a bit tedious, see: https://kennyballou.com/blog/2015/10/art-manually-edit-hunks...


I spent a long time trying to learn touch typing on a regular keyboard but I could never get it to stick, it always felt like the keys were off, due to the stagger, and I would frequently hit two keys at the same time. Getting an ortholinear keyboard (planck) really helped me and finally I can touch type at about 70-90wpm without the awkwardness of staggered keys. It feels like the keys are exactly where they are supposed to be, instead of always being slightly off angle. I guess my brain is just wired differently or something. I don't think there is any way to go back to a regular keyboard for me, which was a minor issue when I started working, but I started bringing my ortho to work and it has worked nicely for me.


I had the same experience, but with a preonic. It's not that hard for me to use a regular keyboard but it definitely feels akward and when I do I type slower and more prone to errors.


Yeah I've been thinking about getting a preonic, or at least something slightly larger than the planck, at times I find it a bit too minimal, also I would like to have two orthos so I don't have to lug one to work every day.


> I would frequently hit two keys at the same time

For me, it was as simple as switching out my mechanical keyboard for a mecha-membrane keyboard, thankfully. Although, now I struggle with anything else! :shrug:


Well if that is 1 million active users I would bet that there are still many more 'used' keys, myself being a Mullvad user have used about four different accounts, since you can just generate a new one. I don't know if this really makes a difference though


No that is a picture of him going into the courthouse in Reykjavík. But prison cells in Iceland are pretty nice though, here is an image of a cell in the new prison Hólmsheiði: https://axis.is/wp-content/gallery/holmsheidi/IMG_1081.jpg

But Litla-Hraun is an older building so the cells are not as nice there.


That's... just a prison cell like you'd find in many places.

Looking at that picture I'm unsure what makes it "nice" except for the fact that it looks somewhat freshly built.

Cells are cells. What really differentiates prisons is everything around them and what amenities and workshops are offered.


There are definitely bad prison cells. Multiple beds per cell, overcrowded, old, cold, hot, no windows etc.


hole in the floor instead of a toilet, and that hole can not be closed, spreading incredibly awful smell 24 hours per day.


Consider yourself very lucky you have never been to a prison (or jail) in New York. I assure you the cells look nothing like this.


Well but that's like saying consider yourself lucky to not have been to a Russian or Nigerian jail. American prisons are famously bad and known for it worldwide. I'd compare this cell to a cell in a country that doesn't have a completely broken judicial system and then yeah, it's nothing that special. It's a cell, maybe the bed looks "nice" but at the end of the day it's a place of incarceration not a hotel.


It has a window, that already makes it better than a cheap hostel room I stayed at once.

Go look at US prison cells, they're so much worse, there's often no separation between the toilet and the sleeping area.


Well I meant in contrast to US prison cells, since I assumed most users here are from the US, maybe I'm wrong on that front.
