I don't know much about mining though it would be a great idea to draw parallels between seemingly unrelated industries. Any resources in context to mining?

Unlike most other programming languages it is super easy to write hello world and proceed from there.

Ask HN: Is there an app/site that curates news weekly

Posted by droyson on Saturday September 25, 2021 @03:11AM
from the ask-hn dept.

A little bit of backstory: Recently I read/listened to Make Time by Jake & JZ, in which they mentioned that daily news is overrated and only checking news once in a week should be sufficient. This has stuck with me.Now I'm looking for an app/site that will curate news weekly. All the apps that I've looked into (Google news, Apple news, NewsInShorts, etc.) serve the purpose of instant news....

Re:Show HN: SWR(stale while revalidate) library for JavaScript apps on Wednesday September 08, 2021 @10:55PM (#28465698)
The name “SWR” is derived from stale-while-revalidate, a HTTP cache invalidation strategy popularized by HTTP RFC 5861 (https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc5861). SWR is a strategy to first return the data from cache (stale), then send the fetch request (revalidate), and finally come with the up-to-date data.
Re:Show HN: A TypeScript declarations bundler that works with Webpack 5 on Friday August 27, 2021 @11:25AM (#28329042)
The declaration-bundler-webpack-plugin (https://github.com/smol/declaration-bundler-webpack-plugin) is no longer maintained by the OP and sadly it doesn't work with Webpack 5. So I forked the original plugin and updated it to work with Webpack5. Post any issues on Github: https://github.com/droyson/types-webpack-bundler/issues
