  • The chat history is the big one for me. It’s not even that it’s not persistent; I’d be fine if it just purged all messages after a set period. The problem is that it seems to selectively purge some messages but keep others. Makes me feel like I’m crazy when I go back and try to find something that I know I sent a while ago, but there’s just a gap.

  • These aren’t exactly exploration games, but they’re simple games that my toddler likes too:

    • Animal Crossing is easily her favorite. She loves “helping” my wife pick outfits and fish.
    • A Building Full of Cats is short, cheap, and cute. She likes making up stories about each apartment and cat. There’s also tons of similar games in different locations.
    • Cats in Time has simple puzzles that she can do with a bit of help.
    • Slime Rancher might be a good fit. It’s simple and cute with a focus on exploration.
    • Dorf Romantik is a relaxing and cute game that’s a good introduction to resource management. She might not be good at the actual goal of the game, but she likes placing tiles.
    • Subnautica in creative mode might be interesting for exploration, depending on how sensitive your kid is about some of the darker areas and creatures.
  • I wasn’t trying to imply that Typst is a replacement for LaTeX. I’m more trying to say that I’m hoping Typst (and any other typesetting alternatives that might be out there) mature enough over the next year or two to become full replacements. It just doesn’t seem to be gaining much attention because of how dominant LaTeX is.

    The main part that’s not open source is their web client, which I’m fine with. There’s a number of people on GitHub that aren’t happy about it though.

  • I mean more that LaTeX’s syntax and compilation methods are outdated. I’ve tried to grok LaTeX many times, but the most I’ve ever been able to do is make small modifications to existing templates. I’ve never been able to make a brand new project work. I’m really hoping that modern alternatives like Typst become more common. There just don’t seem to be many out there because of how dominant LaTeX is.

  • Rounded corners like this makes me think that you have Klipper’s Resonance Compensation feature overtuned, but you’d have to really be trying to get it this bad. What printer and firmware are you using?

  • Every job will have some sort of crunch time. Even just staying in a programming position, the definition of “crunch time” will vary wildly. I’m lucky enough that “crunch time” just means that I set aside all my other tasks until I fix whatever is on fire, but I still get to go home on time unless I really want the overtime pay.

    I don’t envy positions with forced 80-hour workweek crunch times. That’s a sign of bad management.

  • That makes sense. I really like that the documentation is right at the top; many times all I want to do is find the right page in the official docs. You might want to look at how results are prioritized though: right now when I search for something simple like “how to center a div”, that result from Mozilla’s docs is included but it’s hidden as the second or third result. I would expect the page that’s explicitly about centering a div to be the top result, followed by the docs page for the element itself and maybe pages for flex or grid or something. That’s a really simple example, so maybe it’s not the target of this project, but I would still hope that simple topics are covered just as well as complex ones.

    EDIT: I was a bit mistaken: “how to center a div” does bring up the Mozilla documentation for centering an element, but “center a div” brings up a page about accessibility as the top result.

  • The GitHub for Memmy shows the last commit was a month ago. That’s not “abandoned” for an open source personal project, but it definitely seems to be on the developer’s back burner right now.

    I like supporting smaller projects, but Memmy’s just gotten outpaced by other recent clients. I’ve switched to Voyager and really like it. I’ll come back to Memmy once it’s getting active development again.

  • It’s a good start. I’m curious why you didn’t include a section for social media like StackOverflow or Reddit. If I go to Google with a question, it’s usually for an edge case not covered by the documentation. Maybe add them as a section at the bottom to indicate that they might be less relevant?

    Also, this might just be a web developer thing, but why include blogs? Almost all coding blogs I’ve seen are SEO cancer that just copy from the documentation or each other. Are there actually useful blogs out there that I’ve just been missing?
