Does Blender also qualify? It even shows you the name of the Python function behind each UI element on hover, which is great for discoverability when scripting. Or maybe it used to, can't see it now.


Still does if you enable dev mode, I think.


If you're looking for an outdated command, maybe this works for you? https://github.com/kiliankoe/swift-outdated/

Disclaimer: I wrote this (a while back)


I'm using it, thanks so much for making it :-) It should have been part of the swift base tools, it is very useful.


Oh fantastic! And yes, I very much agree. I have some ideas for improving it a bit, maybe that'll make it worthwhile to PR into SwiftPM itself (:


The most recent episode of the podcast Science Vs explored this in detail: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/autism-the-real-reason...

The rise in autism rates (5x over the last 25 years) is almost entirely explained by changes in how autism is defined, diagnosed, and detected. Not by an actual surge in underlying cases or any specific environmental trigger like vaccines, air pollution, heavy metals, plastics, or screen time.


I just don't believe that based purely on my personal experience. I've been around many many people and in the last 15-20 years the amount of people with autism has exploded. It was very rare 30 years ago in my area, the occasional led exposure here, farm chemicals there... But now it's seemingly every 10th house that has someone that is nonverbal.

I'm all for papers and science but only if it matches the real world.


I guess you can never be sure, can you? https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Budapest-Komplex#Maja_T.


It's come up every time something related to thermal printing has been mentioned on HN lately, but this is honestly great stuff if you're in Germany: https://www.oekobon.de/

These non-poisonous blue receipts have the added benefit of being able to be marked with a fingernail, which is nifty if you're using them to print your shopping list, crossing things off is very satisfying.


Are these the ones that Lidl use?


And many other retailers, yes!


> I was able to improve my sleep because I found out that my waking up in the night was correlated with high co2 values.

What did you change? I assume it's non-trivial to automatically open windows based on sensor data? Or do you mean you've been able to improve it by knowing about it and opening a window before going to sleep, which now that I write it sounds much more sensible :D


Haha, opening a window automatically was my initial idea, but like you I quickly converged on the latter! In addition, I just keep the bedroom door open as well, which helps a little bit too



Not just a $PROPRIETARY_THING, but a random unaffiliated project that tries to nab users by using almost the same name as a well-known and well-appreciated project. It should count as malware.


I use these for printing my shopping lists, I like synced lists (in Todoist in my case), but hate walking through stores with a device in my hand. The Ökobons have the added benefit of me being able to scratch items off the list with my fingernail. Also the blue is cool.


This is an interesting take, especially since I've had exactly the opposite impression. Since you mention Homebrew, I assume you're talking about running Nix on macOS, which has been eye-opening for me. The ecosystem is much larger, I very rarely don't find what I'm looking for in nixpkgs, and if it's not there, it _definitely_ won't be in homebrew. I only use homebrew for casks nowadays (and even that is managed through nix). There's also been times when I've tried to install something from homebrew on a colleague's machine, and it was a huge pain to set it up correctly (having to manually install some dependencies) whereas everything worked without effort using nix. The only downside imho is that package authors tend to go for updating homebrew first if anything, since that's considered the default. Nix will typically get updated version a few days later, but that's fine for me.


Homebrew supports both Mac and Linux

I definitely encountered packages available in homebrew but not nixpkgs, so the idea that if not in nix not in brew is wrong. Another package I use has been out of date for months, again it's quality over quantity and nix lacks the quality that i deem more important for myself

Someone else published a nixpkg for my project, but it is wrong. As an OSS maintainer, I have reduced the number of places I publish, too many packages managers these days for my limited time
