The name Yabai can also be used in a positive sense to mean "great", and is particularly common among young people. Source: https://web-japan.org/trends/buzz/bz0510.html


As a relatively young Japanese speaker, can confirm, it can be either bad or good in context as slang. The comparison to English “wicked” makes sense - could be like “whoa, that’s really uncool/dangerous/awful” or it could mean “whoa, that’s amazing! Sick!” Probably library author is going for the latter!


> And the Go module proxy will probably keep the old versions available.

https://proxy.golang.org does not save all modules forever. See FAQ on the site.


You’re technically correct, which I imagine is what you were going for, but the reasoning in the FAQ is largely irrelevant to the matter at hand.


You may want to try https://github.com/tectonic-typesetting/tectonic, which downloads files from TeXLive on-demand.


Personally I appreciate the fix for "Reveal in Finder" hanging a system app (Finder). I also wanted to see how people think of the Properties feature, which has not been discussed yet on HN.


I find git-absorb very useful and it can mostly replace manual commit --fixup.

The worst part:

client.jar searches the entire filesystem for files that look like mod JARs, and infects them with Stage0. This includes entire Gradle and Maven caches, as well as tons of things mod devs would likely never think to check. The potential scale and scope of this infection has gone from “a couple weird mods” to potentially infinite.


A file extension of [fire emoji], this is not easy to type from a terminal.

Edit: It's even stripped on HN!


Read on their discord server that it both support .mojo and the fire emoji


The fire emoji as file extension makes me feel very uncomfortable. Am I old now? (I know I don't have to use it, but I usually work in big projects with lots of other people's code).


    echo $'<Multi_key> <m> <o> <j> <o> : "\U1F525"  U1F525 # FIRE' >>~/.XCompose
I'm not personally a fan of emoji, but I do like using and typing more than plain ASCII in the terminal. (One thing I liked about Julia is their partial embrace of Unicode, and one thing I don't is that you can't write lambdas with ‘↦’.)


The "next" link is not aligned across comments, so you have to move the mouse to click it consecutively.


I have built a Discord bot that greets me every morning and sends me a list of tasks to do on that day because I'm more comfortable with a single friendly message than a pile of calendar notifications.

I still use calendar and reminder apps for one-off and time-sensitive tasks, but for recurring tasks, especially those with complex timing, the crontab syntax integrated into the bot is more powerful and easier to maintain.


> Oracle does not currently intend to contribute the polyglot technologies supporting other languages such as Python, Ruby, R, and JavaScript.

Beware that this polyglot feature you've mentioned is not moving to OpenJDK.


It's fully open source still (as it has always been), it just won't be part of OpenJDK.
