You should try potato pancakes. They are:. - comfort food.- easy to make.- can be made with quarantine level supplies . Recipe (requires google translate):.

It's good to have backups, so I got one. Now also at @_3Jane@hachyderm.io.

So where is everyone heading to?.I'm not sure that I have the attention span to maintain several active accounts on several different services (including special-themed mastodon instances).

when the office canteen reopens.

RT @reClojure: All talk details day 1 and 2 are now available the program is stellar! Grab your seat: https://t.co/….

Just in time for lunch reading: how to write notes during development so that you retain the relevant information.

I forgot I had a sweet setup for previews of new articles on my blog. (Heck I almost forgot I had a blog.) Gonna have to write *that* up somewhere as well at some point XD.

The real-life Laundry, finally located.

I don't care that it's a local function calling a local function, if I use your library as a dependency, I still need to be able to read it and understand what it does.

obscuring that you're passing an unknown (but likely large) number of values as arguments down the stack by storing them adhoc in a single State argument (a map) does NOT count as self-documenting code. jesus wept.

This thread brought to you by "how do I generate a correctly initialised state so that I can iterate on a function design in shell?". </grumble>.

"What's the problem? Write an integration test.". Scale. Scale is the problem. Single-function tests are much faster than integration tests. Also, again, familiarity with the program: how do I know what other dependencies it will spin up, or require?.

It's not so bad if state is defined by a record - at least you can see what the possible fields are. But coupled with the difficulty of stop-and-peek-at-value (another time) - it's hard to create a test fixture if you're not thoroughly familiar with the program first.

One thing that annoys me about Erlang so far is the tendency to treat state as an opaque, type-less blob passed through a ton of disparate functions.

Remote calls are good, but f2f friend chats are better, so if you:. 1. live in East London, pref. south of Stratford.2. are careful about covid (eg. avoid public spaces, public transport). and want to hang out (and potentially keep doing so if it's fun), drop me a DM.

"both 'behavior' and 'behaviour' are accepted by the Erlang compiler"

RT @shai_reznik: 😅

First patch submitted to the core library, am I an Erlang programmer yet? :D.

6 used to be my standard programming position back when I worked in an office that had a dark, quiet corner with armchairs and needed solo focus time. Good days. 😢.

Q: what's a kitchen waste disposal unit?.A: a tool for cereal killers. #suchar #pszprszm.

Do I know anyone who's camped around London? Thinking of feasibility of walking the Capital Ring Walk with a backpack. (I do know you can get a fine for camping in the wild, not wild about camping in people's gardens in the current situation.).
