I know it's not a configuration language, but has anyone tried the hocon configuration format https://docs.spongepowered.org/stable/en/server/getting-star... ? Or https://learnxinyminutes.com/hocon/

Congrats for the good and impressive work. You also implemented very fast the remarks like zod and not animated docs.

Have you benchmarked again since you added zod and other features ? It's not related to the api in itself, but since I'm mainly a mobile user, can you make your website responsive ?


Agree with you. Coming from sublime and always wanting to give emacs a fair try, I found ergoemacs [0] that wanted to expand the cua mode for beginners, but that was not enough for me. I wanted more, and now with IDEmacs it is almost like what I want. With emacs you can do pretty much anything, why not a full cua mode ?

Code that doesn't exist is code you don't have to maintain. I enjoy that as well.

I was wondering the same question, and IIRC it's due to the DNA diversity we have today. This is roughly calculated with the successive generations of humans and accounting possible mutations.

If this is the case, how can we know whether that number represents a drop in population or not? Can we measure population size 100,000 years ago? 50,000? Then compare them? What about that number represented as % of total population? 1,000-10,000 sounds low, but our population probably wasn't very high that long ago either.

Hypothetically if you took a random sample of present humans you would have a low # of say skin tones in wide range, whereas a small isolated and stable population should have a low # of low variety. So you can tell by that kind of difference whether it was a sudden drop or more of a sustained thing. Presumably in a more sophisticated statistical way across a wide variety of genes of course.

Apparently there is another bottleneck ~900K years ago that has decent fossil record support but the Toba one is more disputed.


Since grafene has been discovered, I never stopped hearing about how it is wonderful because of everything it "could" do. I know there are companies producinh grafene, so some other companies are buying it I suppose.

Where are my everyday products with grafene in it ? Everyone talks about it but no one seems to use it.


I'm using micro in termux on my android. The keyboard of termux is quite adapted to the CLU bindings (ctrl-f, ctrl-s,...). My main use is to take notes, though I bought a physical small bluetooth keyboard perfect for making a little bit of python scripts from time to time.

I must admit that coding in vim on a kinda big project on a smartphone is really impressive.


Being a sublime power user I really like the philosophy of emacs. The only thing I regret are the keybindings which are not the ones I'm used to. I found ergoemacs [0] to be a really good initiative but unfortunately it felt incomplete when I tried it. I had the project to re-bind emacs keybindings to make them work like in sublime but it seemed too much of an effort. I really wished someone made that already but never found anything close on the web. It feels like I'm alone in a very weird niche.

Unrelated to the topic, but I really like the feature `> cd ..` at the bottom of the article. It's simple and accessible even with a smartphone. I wonder if there is an easter egg inside.

Because the homepage has this "interactive terminal" which is funny and nice (kudos for readline shortcut support) but also partially "broken", i.e. the blog post(s) and other links you see with "ls" are not clickable, at least on Firefox.

I'd also love a `cd -` on the top left

That's exactly the essence and the power of Ruby. If you want static typing, compilation, performance with Ruby-like syntax just use Crystal https://crystal-lang.org/
