I became a subscriber because I was listening to the podcast and generally want to pay for what I get. But I do not want the app. I want to listen using open standards like RSS. NPR does that this well. Please don’t force proprietary apps on us.

If you’re at @JupyterCon and want to discuss anything Scala, find me there or send me a DM. A lot of things changed recently in the Scala tooling ecosystem, and so will Almond! almond.sh

1/18 Je me rends compte de l'ironie de la situation: un prisonnier politique russe s'adresse aux électeurs français. Mais techniquement, je suis en prison à cause d’une plainte déposée par une entreprise française.

1/16A Russian political prisoner addressing the voters of France is quite ironic. But technically, I'm in jail due to a criminal complaint by a French company; I studied 🇫🇷 at university and wear a scarf whenever I come to Paris. France is close to my heart, so I'll give it a try

This is really sad. I am so sorry for your loss.

Imo just use constructor arguments. Reader doesn't make sense in scala

After ~7 years, and 3 great teams and roles including management, today was my last day at Apple. I worked with incredible people, many of them became my friends. I learned a lot and grew a lot. So naturally I am sad, but also very excited with what comes next.

I used to enjoyed those Ariane 5 launches so much back when my dad worked at the Space Center in Kourou. Incredible experience!

I love Laminar. I wish it didn't reinvent the wheel and implemented on top of cats-effects and FS2.

Using the popularity argument just so that the technical drawbacks can be ignored is intellectually dishonest.

I really enjoyed the post, thanks! I was wondering if you had any thoughts on libraries like typelevel.org/log4cats/.
