My personal motivation behind "law as a programming language" is to aid me, as a lay person [1], to understand it better.
An AST could help me quickly navigate between paragraphs, and make searching the law easier?!
---
[1]: Just someone, who wants to understand law easier, and not spent years having to study it.
"understand law easier" also in the sense of TLDR law.
And yes, I'm aware of the interpretation aspect of the law, but just give me some easy to understand starting point.
Edit: formatting, formulation
(While I may not have had your exact same conditions, I did felt the lowest in my life, before helping out in a farm)
> I’m considering either becoming a monk
Instead of "becoming", you could try to ask the temples, if they need help.
I know people who go to temples, and they say, that there is always work to do.
You would also get free veggie meals :)
Another option could be volunteer work on a farm, which I did.
I attended a program, where you could help out families on farms for a week.
They would give you shelter and food, and you would help them on their farm.
It tremendously help me out of my hole, and gave me a new perspective on life.
I can expand on that, if you like. Just say so!
No problem!
I figured you had iteration already, and it's how you prefer things, so no biggies :).
But also thanks for your insights on the running timer ux
This comes right on time!
I was looking for some tracking apps yesterday, but wasn't satisfied with any of the choices.
I went for an Apple Shortcut instead `speedy time tracker`.
However, I will switch to yours to show support!
It would definitely be nice to add shortcut capabilities in the future :)
-------
My Feedback:
- Starting/Stopping timers should happen on press of list item
- Editing should happen on swipe left (essentially swapping start and edit)
- Running times could be indicated in the list itself, no need for separate section "Running Timers"
- If, I want to resume, eg. Work, a dropdown appears, eventually leading to Work (total time)> Work (time1), Work (time2), which makes it hard to resume (Now I have to open the list)
One drawback here is, that condensed water could accumulate under the cover, which can lead to even more problems

Makes sense!
Love this project. And thanks for trying to solve something that I also struggled with.
Def. needs time to get used to, was l-2 days for me. But hadn't have big problems typing after that.
I was able to try it out for ~1 week.
Can highly recommend.
A cheaper alternative would be two have a 'high' desk with a separate treadmill (haven't tested this one myself, but am considering this setup)
> it can work with VISA or PayPal
Sounds promising, thank you, I will try them on my next donation
Thanks for laying out the pros and cons for you.
On their landing page, it seemed like they only support "their" charities?
They run an extensive donation service, but looks a bit too extensive for me.
Thank you nonetheless!
Ty! Monero was mentioned twice here.
Interesting concept, unfortunately they only operate in the US.
Thank you for mentioning this website, I will def. have a look later.
That's a simple and easy solution.
I will try it out the next time, thank you!
That's a valid perspective, thanks for mentioning.
> buy a visa/etc giftcard
I like that suggestion the best as well.
That means, that if the organziation hasn't setup an crypto address (is this the correct term?), I cannot donate?

from the ask-hn dept.
Is it as simple as creating an "anonymous" paypal account?------I just made an online donation via my personal paypal and made sure to not check"Send address to recipient"but later in the confirmation mail from paypal, the receipt listed"Donation to ... <organization>""Sent by ... <my-email-adress-here>".Now, I am confused, wether the donation was actually anonymous.
This is amazing, thanks for sharing and creating!
The demos look great, good job!
Thank you for this detailed answer.
On to the next stage:
> I invited him for a conversation
Why was this contact made? What's his connection to your team, ie. how important is his input to your team?
> I spoke with some people in the company I already felt like I could trust
Possible scenario: Chances are that these coworkers are also close to 'that' manager, and talked about it to other coworkers, which eventually resulting into 'that' manager heard that you talked about him. -> Source of hate?
I, myself, would do one of the following options
1. Make your sprint/monthly goals clear to the CEO and at the end deliver
2. Start looking for other opportunities. Since you were well liked in your previous positions, it may be easier to get references.
Hidden option: Look really hard at yourself. Are there unconscious behaviours of you that may cause dislike?
Try to apologize to 'that' manager for tiny and unnoteworthy mistakes, he just sounds like a ... who needs more love.
> that made it clear, from the very beginning, that he didn't like me.
How 'directly' was it made it clear?
How is your day to day contact with him?
It is also possible that misunderstandings at the start between you two can spiral out of control (even into hate).
Edit: formatting and spelling
I nap 20 min after lunch and sometimes I don't fall "asleep" at all but still feel energized afterwards. I always wondered how both had kinda the same effect. Now that you mention this, it definitely makes sense that I was meditating in some form.
My bad. No the ergodox doesn't has this.
Hey, I have an ergodox ez.
I'm wondering what you mean by "pedal layer". Like pressing the pedal would move you to another layer?
The ergodox does precisly that and supports up to 32 layers.

And definitely follow through his "pause and ponder" sections. If you want to build up your maths skills, it is crucial to learn how to think in the maths way. Like becoming a good programmer involves writing lots of code yourself, or to become a good dancer you need to practice your steps.
For maths it's abstract thinking. Appreciation of maths is one thing, having the discipline to self-study a whole other.
Edit. Regarding your 2nd Edit: His videos are made for the broadest audience possible. I'd recommend picking any video whose topic interests you the most at the moment. You will see what knowledge you lack (take notes of these!) and can expand from there. Be it to watch his maths fundamental ((1)) series [0],[1] or just rewatch.
((1)): As in any other things, knowing your fundamentals is significant to the understanding of a topic. It won't help you at all if you can apply (copy paste) some machine learning techniques if you don't know about linear algebra at all.

The practices indeed need a major revamp! Good luck with that my friend
(I have no experience working in Software)
There is always the need of someone who has the bigger picture in mind. Task distribution.
And for the "large company" part. I assume that most large companies are still operating in and old-fashioned way of working.
