• How do we learn to get good at programming

  Videos, blogs, text-based teachings, YouTube project-based learning, books, and the like are all examples of various methods and mediums of acquiring skills, especially in the software engineering industry. As I continue to navigate this challenge, I've made major changes, one being that I will now document the journey, and the other, I switched to reading books on JavaScript. I currently use the book ELOQUENT... - Source: dev.to / almost 2 years ago

• Ask HN: Changing my mind about JavaScript

  Seconded. I won't recommend it and no one I know has recommended it for a decade. It's hard for someone who doesn't know JS to know which parts has changed and is no longer the way to do things. https://github.com/getify/You-Dont-Know-JS are the 2 best source for learning JS. If you don't have time to read both, just go with https://eloquentjavascript.net/ If one needs to go further, go through... - Source: Hacker News / almost 2 years ago

• The lost joy of music piracy

  Music is tough. People like music which is a lot like what they're familiar with but just a little bit different. Musicians are always suing each other because it's hard to write a song which doesn't sound dangerously like an existing song, which is why Taylor Swift is generous with writing credits. It's a big problem for LLM generated music, regardless of the training data. Myself I have gone through phases... - Source: Hacker News / 1 day ago

• Zig Creator Calls Spade a Spade, Anthropic Blows Smoke

  Now you've misquoted me. Actual quote[1] is: "This appears to be an outright fabrication." To quote yourself[2], "The honest thing to do is acknowledge that you were mistaken and apologize for the false accusation." Are you going to do that for me now? I don't expect you to, because I don't think you are being dishonest. I think you are earnestly trying to untangle the facts from two parties for whom you have no... - Source: Hacker News / 4 days ago

• Zig Creator Calls Spade a Spade, Anthropic Blows Smoke

  One of the things I find so disappointing about Kelley's behavior here is that he falsely accused Jarred Sumner of lying about fuzzing Bun, and then when Sumner showed evidence[0] that they've been fuzzing Bun for months, Kelley just silently edited his post[1] to walk back the accusation and never apologized or admitted he was wrong. I commented on Mastodon[2] to point out to Kelley that it's dishonest to... - Source: Hacker News / 4 days ago

• Relax with Coax

  "I put every Star Trek series into a Collection on my Plex, pointed Coax at it and now I have a channel that's playing a random Star Trek episode at any given moment. It's fantastic." (https://mastodon.social/@Moltz/116896945313382677). - Source: Hacker News / 7 days ago

• Nobel-winning chemist leaves US to direct AI materials lab in China

  I will grant my friend Valerie lives off grid and does subsistence agriculture, see https://wildhunt.org/2026/02/pagan-community-notes-week-of-february-5-2026.html but she is a high priestess even if she omits "high". Now I did get a high when I went to Litha (summer solstice) at her place that lasted for days because the experience was ethereal and otherworldly. But she's a professional who does this full... - Source: Hacker News / 9 days ago
