Ensō is a writing tool that helps you enter a state of flow. It does this by separating writing from editing and thus making it harder for you to edit yourself.
The text fades away as you type so you can focus on what you want to say instead of how you want to say it.
You can’t select or edit text, but you can download and review it once you’re done.

If I ever end up using Windows on a personal machine, I'll follow this guide

Our design goals are safety, performance, and developer experience. In that order.

Contrary to popular belief, simplicity is also not the first attempt but the hardest revision

code, like steel, is less expensive to change while it's hot.

Safety

NASA's Power of Ten — Rules for Developing Safety Critical Code

• Use only very simple, explicit control flow for clarity.

• Put a limit on everything. Fail Fast

• Assertions detect programmer errors. The only correct way to handle corrupt code is to crash.

• Assertions are a safety net, not a substitute for human understanding.

  • Build a precise mental model of the code first.

  • encode your understanding in the form of assertions,

  • write the code and comments to explain and justify the mental model to your reviewer,

  • and use VOPR as the final line of defense, to find bugs in your and reviewer's understanding of code.

• No memory may be dynamically allocated (or freed and reallocated) after initialization.

• Declare variables at the smallest possible scope, and minimize the number of variables in scope.

• Good function shape is often the inverse of an hourglass: a few parameters, a simple return type, and a lot of meaty logic between the braces.

• Centralize control flow. When splitting a large function, try to keep all switch/if statements in the "parent" function, and move non-branchy logic fragments to helper functions.

• Centralize state manipulation. Let the parent function keep all relevant state in local variables, and use helpers to compute what needs to change, rather than applying the change directly.

Developer Experience

• Add units or qualifiers to variable names, and put the units or qualifiers last, sorted by descending significance. latency_ms_max rather than max_latency_ms.

• Callbacks go last in the list of parameters.

• Order matters for readability (even if it doesn't affect semantics). On the first read, a file is read top-down, so put important things near the top. The main function goes first.

• Don't overload names with multiple meanings that are context-dependent.

Social media is too limiting. We believe that everyone should be able to freely express themselves in their own little corner of the web, without having to worry about things like algorithms, tracking, or advertisements.
Nekoweb is free of any advertisements, and is run completely by donations from its users.

This guide covers the ins and outs of FFmpeg starting with fundamental concepts and moving to media transcoding and video and audio processing providing practical examples along the way.

Would you love me if I became a worm?, somebody could ask. I would respond that no, I don't in fact love you, for you are a worm.

Indeed I find humans more valuable.

This is a card game for teaching kids how to combine unix commands through pipes.

Development Platform for building event-driven and distributed systems. Move faster with purpose-built local dev tools and DevOps automation for AWS/GCP.

Very cool wiki design with backlinks, links preview etc

Personal website of Gwern Branwen (writer, self-experimenter, and programmer): topics: psychology, statistics, technology, deep learning, anime

The layout provides easier chord and scale patterns, and for beginner musicians it can have a much shallower learning curve than other types of instruments.

Space Explorer

A *web site* search engine, instead of a web page centered one!

Similarly, one might begin to talk instead of watching talk-shows and to play instead of watching game shows — To value the entire spectrum of sensations as necessary members of the whole that is the deliberate existence, with its potential for failure, awkwardness, loneliness, harm and death included.

For better or worse, I sometimes think. I have heard that I therefore am, but I’m unconvinced. Nevertheless, sometimes I write my thoughts down. Mostly just in my diary, but other times I publish them on the Web. This notebook contains those of my writings that are in a state somewhere between published and private.
