[Gabriele Cimato]

I have a few this week!

• Found a WFH routine that is effective and efficient
• Got my second PR merged at my new job 🎉
• Worked out regularly 💪

[Ben Halpern]

Wow, sounds like a pretty amazing week.

[Jérémie Astor]

Made big improvements in Gwion 🍾!

Also started implementing a few features in mdr, that should fully enable using it as a literate programming tool.

[Ben Halpern]

mdr looks really neat!

[Jérémie Astor]

Thanks!

I think that thing could be useful to much more people than just me.
Unfortunately I'm not really good at explaining what I do. 😕
Yet I'm still working on that 😄

[Ben Halpern]

There’s not always a simple answer but if you make DEV posts about this you’ll get better at explaining and you’ll also eventually find more folks to buy in on the whole thing.

Also going over the readme over and over again to try and clarify is a good thing.

[Jérémie Astor]

if you make DEV posts about this

Yeah I think I understood that ... mostly thanks to DEV 😄
But I have to start posting now.

I have a few subjects that would possibly make correct post subjects(IMHO), let's see if I can write them down (as posts, not code)!

[lepinekong]

Could you explain more ? I have read your github and I'm not sure to understand how it is linked to literate programming ?

[Jérémie Astor]

I agree the README is probably both unclear and messy, but I thought the fact that it build and run a Hello, World example proved it was already usable as a LP tool.

In fact, and that might something I need to clarify in the README, README.md is build by running ./mdr README.mdr, which also creates hello_world.c, compiles it, runs it,
checks its output is correct, and remove both the source (hello_world.c) and the binary
(hello_world).

It might be (a bit clearer) if you look at README.mdr.

Please let me know if you understand it more know, and if (any of) you have ideas to improve that.

Thanks for your interrest.

[lepinekong]

Ah ok thanks it's clearer :) I have done something like that with readable.red/ because it uses redlang which can be embedded in html

[lepinekong]

And about Gwion what do mean by "strongly-timed musical programming language" because I can't see any code that looks like music ?

I'm actually interested by such timed programming language and concurrency because I would be able to use it with a method called grafcet which is particularly suited for that.

[Jérémie Astor]

Sorry for the delay.
Strongly timed refers to the computation model: if you don't request time to pass, all computation will be made before the next sound sample is written.
Maybe this example can make things clearer.

[Ben Halpern]

Awesome!

[Ambar Mehrotra]

Was thinking of starting a blog for a long time. Started writing on DEV and also built my own blog ambar.dev

Pretty excited for it :)

[Ben Halpern]

Plenty of room for a DEV badge 😄

[Ambar Mehrotra]

Thanks :)

[Ambar Mehrotra]

Done :)

[Ben Halpern]

Fabulous

[José Coelho]

I was on the top 25 contributors in just 6 months on my new job. 😊

[Ben Halpern]

Congrats! Can you tell me more about the "top 25 contributors" thing? I'm curious about how that works.

[José Coelho]

One of the managers found a report plugin for BitBucket where you can see a list of the developers with the most commits in the last quarter.

It’s not the most meaningful metric but it still feels nice 😄

[Robert]

I've successfully launched an interactive 3D visualization of COVID-19 and it now has 100+ stars on github!

Here's the url: covid3d.live

[Ben Halpern]

Big big congrats

[Robert]

Thanks Ben!

[Matt Curcio]

Really awesome graphic!

[Robert]

Thanks Matt!

[Abdullah Di'bas]

Wow ! looks amazing

[Robert]

Thanks!

[Nick Taylor]

OMG that is so cool.

[Robert]

Thank you!

[mutualaidworld]

Très cool! That said, I think France is broken.

[George Arthur]

wow!! This is absolutely amazing. I saw a similar visualization somewhere last three weeks but this one right here is an excellent work. Keep it up bro.

[Robert]

Thanks!

[AakeemCodes]

Wow this is awesome!

[Robert]

Thanks!

[ramjacco]

That's really good mate. I wonder if it would be possible to include a sort of trend graph, to show how it's evolving globally... So to give a sort of narrative to the figures. Great work!

[Mike Goodstadt]

Nice implementation! It would be nice to see integration of /states from the API for given that USA covers such a large area.

[Robert]

hey, will look into that. thanks!

[Zach Curtis]

That is really cool! We are looking to do something similar on our predictive site: daystozero.org/

[Robert]

Great site!

[UZYRYN]

Great interactive and simple and clear map very good job on that ! I do noticed tho that Singapore is missing from the map...maybe other countries as well i didn't check every country i simply noticed the missing piece :D

[Robert]

Thanks! I've been busy these past few days but will definitely check this.

[Drew Town]

I was finally able to launch my latest project Picke.rs!

I'm super excited to be working with a bunch of cool technologies on an green field project (Strapi, Nuxt, Tailwind). The reception has been positive and I'm looking to grow and expand it over the coming weeks.

[Ben Halpern]

Neat!

Can I suggest putting the headline and tagline from the about page right on the home page when not logged in?

Search, save and organize picks from a variety of today's top Podcasts to easily find at a later time.

I had to search to find out what the site was all about. Looks very well done.

[Drew Town]

Thanks Ben! I really appreciate it. I definitely will add a blurb to the home page.

[Abdullah Di'bas]

I wrote my very first article on internet :D, which was about examples on Liskov Substitution Prinicple:
dev.to/abdullahdibas/examples-on-t...

[Ben Halpern]

Congrats! What a moment.

[Abdullah Di'bas]

Thank you :)

[Nick Taylor]

Congrats on your first post!

[Abdullah Di'bas]

Thanks !

[Richard Schloss]

Software: my absolute favorite feature for my project (Nuxt Socket.IO: The Magic of Dynamic API Registration). Even though I already know I'll have my critics on this one, I think it's a pretty cool feature. Came a long way in 2 weeks, but I think it can be even better (I realize there is room for improvement!).

More importantly though:
My win is I am still ALIVE and STRONG :) Going on to 37 shortly, with no signs of slowing down 💪. This COVID-19 thing...I'm not gonna let it beat me up !

[Ben Halpern]

💪🔥

[Anurag Hazra]

I launched my side project BugVilla

"Universal bug tracker for everyone! BugVilla allows team members to collaborate, discuss and kill bugs effectively."

[Ben Halpern]

Congrats big time

[Anurag Hazra]

Thank you <3. it was nice building this project, Learned a lot while making it. :D
