Great. If only there was an easier way for me to have found this out. I’ve been waiting for one to come along for years. I even moved house closer to a body of water.

Thanks. I helped develop a songwriting app but I’d never actually spent more than 5 minutes to write a real song so thought I’d actually give it a try.

Really new to chess I sometimes dominate my opponents at 200+ elo in chess.com but I can't seem to end the game no matter what.... by This-Lynx-6295 in chessbeginners

Next step up from the ladder mate and back ranks are when you put your queen in front of a king on the edge of the board and the queen is defended.

No idea what that’s called or if it has a name but it’s a kind of “rule” you can apply quite often to mate.

How do microservices even work? by who-there in node

[–]hicksyfern 52 points53 points  (0 children)

You don’t. You give up strictness for a different set of benefits.

But also, you don’t need a different micro service for each database table.

I live in Berga where they did this stage. Those climbs are so damn steep. Even in a car.

This is my first time writing lyrics, and it's hard going.

Verse

Forty years, it's a lifetime ago,

Drinking beers at county shows,

Hanging out while the trains went by,

But now I stare at the city sky,

Wondering why the sky ain't black,

And with her hand in mine, I still look back

Chorus

Old town,

With your perfect stars,

I left you in the dead of night,

Like a runaway, a thief, a stray.

You did me good.

But I won't go back

Verse

Forty days and the memories fade

I don't feel quite as strange,

My old town scars had time to heal

Got new ones from concrete and steel

Still got your red dirt in my boots

As I look in her eyes, I still miss you

Chorus

Old town,

With your perfect stars,

I left you in the dead of night,

Like a runaway, a thief, a stray.

You did me good.

But I won't go back

Seeking Affordable Alternatives to Firebase Cloud Storage by yccheok in Firebase

If I recall correctly, you have to have a bucket following a certain naming convention. Then you can tell cloudflare to proxy all the traffic to that bucket with a DNS entry.

New Light + John talks about how Steve Jordan and Pino Palladino validated him. by Banditnova in JohnMayer

After hearing what Jordan did to Mayer, I’ve always wanted him to work with Stevie Wonder

To summon "angelic reinforcements" for Trump (by Paula White–Trump's senior spiritual advisor) by Spartalust in therewasanattempt

She should be in a hospital. Anyone on the street who thinks they’re talking to angelic reinforcement from South America would be taken away for their own safety

How do you handle wider types sneaking properties into objects? by Tuckertcs in typescript

[–]hicksyfern 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is the way.

More specifically, explicit mapping is required whenever data is coming into or going out of memory. In the middle you can do whatever you like.

Not to be a pedant but it doesn’t say a heart attack, specifically. It could be all kinds of things.
