<3 This book is such a fun and opinionated entry text for learning about how to use typography in your work. I highly recommend looking through the various sections and perusing anything that interests you. It's not written solely for typography on the web so many of the how tos include instructions for word and other editing program.
As a side note the entire book is written in racket which is pretty cool.
If you use gpakosz tmux config you may find the following set up useful. https://github.com/lukesmurray/bootstrap/tree/master/.config... I replicated most of the key bindings so you can use splits without tmux. Still no support for multiple sessions or persistence but that’s on kittys roadmap
Is there any worry about what would happen if the water supply runs out? The article noted that the GMMR might run out in 60-100 years and supplies millions of people with water.
There is still plenty of water there. What they failed at was that they greatly overestimated how permeable the sandstone that holds the water is. That is, the flow of water sideways in the aquifer is much slower than expected. They pumped the area directly under the pumps almost dry and then were surprised about how slowly it refilled.
It would still be possible to fix this and reach the original targets by building more pumping stations, further away from each other than the existing ones. That or frack the rock formation...
Unfortunately it's not officially supported (as usual in CRA world), so you have to resort to one of the config rewriters. I've been using this⁰ and only had one problem with numeric enums in TypeScript. I don't remember the exact issue, but it was caused by my own stupidity, and was easy to fix.
Why don’t you write it with posix only tools then? It’s a great idea that didn’t exist yet. Who cares how the developer made it? I’m sure if it takes off people will rewrite it in go and rust with standalone binaries and the HN crowd will love it. I’m pretty sure people use the tools they’re most familiar with. Bashing people for their choice of tool is a popular comment on HN but doesn’t accomplish anything.
It's not bashing a tool per se, sorry if you read it as such. I was pointing out that with the abundance of tools we have at our disposal this project sounds to me like a solution looking for a problem.
As for the solution not existing yet - as people pointed out there is tar, zip, git, and shar which all seem to accomplish the same thing
Yes I read it and I don't agree with the posted downsides for most of them, since the tool itself seems to share the downsides with the posted pro-cons of other solutions and doesn't seem to solve any problem it promises to do.
Is visibility into what's being created a problem?
The listed problems like "everytime the template changes, author has to rezip and reupload the folder" don't seem to be solved with stamp to me, it seems like the problem is now shifted to controlling a version of this new format and still distributing it somehow (probably through git) at which point you ask yourself why can't the git repo already have the structure? If somebody wants to rename something they do this really easily, no need for var substitution.
If there was a migration mechanism that would move files from an old template to a new one I would see value added.
This is my first Show HN. Some of you may remember MDAnki, a program to convert Markdown to Anki Cards. I loved that idea but MDAnki always ran into issues where cards would be duplicated on reimports. This program is very similar but solves those syncing issues. If you've always wanted to write AND edit your Anki notes in Markdown and have been frustrated by existing tooling then check this program out. I would love some feedback.
It’s got a ton of rough edges but the boilerplate is there to get a proof of concept pretty quickly
