Check out Boards of Canada. Lots of their stuff is like this.

I was ranked #1 in the world for a good while in Pistol Whip. On both PC and PS4, before they separated out all the leaderboards based on modifiers.

Exact same thing happened to me the other day. Like exactly. Maybe we live in the same area.

I bought a Roland Jupiter 6 synthesizer for $1100 around 14 years ago. Are the time, the price definitely made me flinch. Last I checked, they are going for $8000-$10,000 on eBay.

Plaid is one of my all time favorites! Got to see them a few years back. If you like them, check out an artist called IDGlitch on SoundCloud. Super underrated and the closest thing I’ve heard to plaid:

Programmer here.

Infected Mushroom or Eskimo for when I’m in the zone and pumping out code.

For debugging: Boards of Canada, Plaid, Lone, Ciaran Byrne

Era Vulgaris is by far my favorite album of theirs.

I’d have to disagree with QotSA, but I can definitely see why. I’m a huuuge fan of theirs, but for some reason every new QotSA album seems to take years for me to fully appreciate. I absolutely hated Era Vulgaris when it first came out. It’s by far my favorite album of theirs now. Even …like clockwork is barely starting to really grow on me, but I’m definitely coming around. I haven’t even bothered to listen to their newest one yet.

I ended up just making my own helper container for authelia. It can generate a link that expires after a set time and only allows a set number of users to access. Then I can just give the link to whoever I want to join and they can fill in their own username and pwd. It then adds them to the authelia user db with the correct groups and PW hashing. Only issue is I have to manually restart authelia for the changes to take effect. Eventually I want to see if I can automate that.

I’m still working on editing the configuration through the app though. I want to be able to change the access control rules, etc.

As far as having the services behind authelia automatically detect and login the user, that will depend on the service, but authelia does pass user credentials and login status in the request headers. Many of the services I host were created myself, so it’s pretty trivial to have it automatically “log in” from the authelia sign on.

Exceedingly.

Peyote, San Pedro, the many, many species that contain DMT, khat, just to name a few.

Magical/Sacred plants.

There are very active communities on Reddit for magical/sacred plants and even some for selling/trading them. I mostly collect San Pedro cacti among a few others and would love an active community like that here.

• Fry at 360⁰F for 12 mins
• Flip them and fry again at 360⁰F for 12 mins
• Flip again and fry for 6 mins at 400⁰F

They should come out super crispy but still very juicy on the inside.The one drawback is that it takes a total of 30 mins and you can only make as much as fits in your frier. You really want to have only one layer of wings and not have them laying on top of each other. My frier is fairly small so it’s not something I can make for a whole bunch of people.

Fried chicken.

It’s soo good but not worth the hassle of dealing with all the oil.

Although, I’ve since found that air-fried, if done right, can be just as good.

The only time I’ve ever really needed recursion is when I’m doing something that needs to map out some sort of tree or heavily nested object.

One example that comes to mind is when I needed a function that acts like querySelector, but also searches through shadowroots. Since querySelector does not natively search within shadowroots, I had to write a recursive function that basically starts at the root and recursively searches each node for a shadowdom, goes inside, and runs itself again.

It’s definitely not the most performant solution, but it is sometimes necessary.

I’ve mostly reached a point where I’m not always having to go back a look up documentation, but for some reason array methods still get me.

Every. Single. Time.

I have been programming for years, and although I did minor in math, I can only think of 2 times that I have ever needed any math beyond that of highschool algebra. And those were very niche one-off situations. As others have stated, logic is much much more important, and a good understanding of Boolean logic will take you MUCH farther than any other math related discipline. But even still, logic is, well… logical if you just think about it. You really don’t need to take any courses on it.

I think the main barrier for entry is that there are simply too many options and different paths to go down when beginning to learn. Also, there just aren’t too many really cool things you can do as a beginner that are truly interesting and will keep your attention. The typical “hello world” exercises are boring as hell and of course people aren’t going to keep being engaged when they’re bored.

That’s why I usually recommend beginners who want to learn to start with an Arduino, regardless of what their final goal language is. Generally speaking, once you learn one language it’s pretty easy to learn others, as the foundational knowledge is mostly the same i.e. variables, loops, functions, etc.

What I think is great about the Arduino is that your code produces a physical, tactile response. Usually one of the very first programs you write (which can be completed in probably 10 minutes by a beginner) is making an led flash something like “SOS”. This is leaps and bounds more interesting than something like “hello world” and will usually keep you interested and engaged much longer while learning the basics.

I started on an Arduino many years back after stumbling upon a Paul McWhorter lesson randomly on Reddit. After becoming pretty proficient with an Arduino, I transitioned over to JavaScript and started learning web development, and I’m now a full time engineer.
