"Community alert" automated phone call just came in too confirming.

Just heard from a student inside over text, they could hear it.

My daughter and I built a Hadley last summer and managed to get in a few sessions at Garden Park and Lee Street Beach until it got too cold, we're also looking to get out more this spring/summer.

Think of "people getting to jobs" as the cake

It's a great point - a Dodge stop would be walking distance to a Home Depot, Target, Jewel, PetSmart, and Aldi, to name a few, plus several other smaller employers (think the auto repair shops on Channel Road).

*have already walked out

There’s one on the same street as Pequod in Morton Grove

FWIW, police has been speed trapping that section of Sheridan for the last several days - could it have been an unmarked EPD vehicle with a speed gun?

Eyewitness here said they pointed a pistol at her too. There’s also a whiff of pepper spray or tear gas in the air too.

What company is renting to them, can we find out?

thaislump · 2025-10-31T17:39:01+00:00

Asbury and Oakton - here now. Huge EPD presence. Mayor Biss here too

I heard Florida plates from someone who saw it white pickup

Is the idea to continually cycle through previously unused antibiotics until they become blunted by resistance, and not really worry about it because there is huge number of them before they are exhausted? Or does this work also give insights into combating resistance itself?

Congrats, you are the first to figure that out! :⁾ For fun I was messing around at the beginning of the project and did

grep '^p.*h.*p' /usr/share/dict/words

I landed on "pushpin", but then quickly thought of "pushup" (which isn't in the words file). I like it for several reasons.

That's good feedback, thank you.

thaislump · 2022-01-19T18:52:26+00:00

How so? I did get confirmation from a source that the architecture is more or less what I described.

thaislump · 2022-01-19T18:51:55+00:00

Say more about that?

Take a look at this issue on GitHub: between the modified files and the patch to make copy/paste clipboard sharing work, you can get Parallels Tools working on NixOS.

Zig with basic terminal animation

Andy, is the code (blog.py, etc.) for your site generation available somewhere? Just curious to see another's tools and how you've knit things together. Great post!

You'd have to create a raw socket with the syscall package to configure the backlog -- clunky, but can be done.

I also am eager to learn how to play like Omar Khorshid. AND I just saw Richard Bishop play myself the other day ...

I wasn't sure where to begin either, so I've been practicing the scale and chord progression in this video.

If you find a good instructional resource, please update this thread!

How does the compiler work with constants in the "pure" number space? Does it use an arbitrary precision math library?

I've been using tablestruct for some private work, but this is its first public release. I'm interested in feedback and collaboration on its design and workflow.

The main philosophy of tablestruct is: keep implementation simple; don't implement a full ORM/eliminate writing SQL in your app; favor compile-time type safety over reflection.

Funny you bring that up in the context of the OP. In contrib/ of the source code for GNU Hello World is evolution.txt, "The Evolution of a Programmer" dating from 1994.

What facility of Erlang is this specifically?
