For something that seems to be lightweight and simple, I’d have liked to see it being file based or like a static site generator. The official documentation for self-hosting this refers to Postgres (and Docker, to make it easier). That seem

Only dried fruits may be 90% sugar. Most fresh fruits are mostly water, followed by sugar, fiber, minerals and other things. They may be richer in sugar on a comparative scale (because we cultivated sweeter varieties), and some of them may

In my experience on Windows watching for file events, I’ve seen that it’s not very reliable. As the article notes, it’s possible that the operating system may drop events. Nevertheless, this solution should help improve performance and redu

One thing that really annoys me is how keyboard hostile the apps, including Apple’s apps on macOS, have become. The apps developed lazily with Catalyst are probably the worst, but I’m guessing it’s a general issue with the newer SDKs like S

A tangential correction: it’s PEBKAC, not PEBKAK, as written in your comment. The last letter stands for “chair”.

Signal does have an inferior experience. Signal has many UX issues, including the lack of a backup mechanism for iOS (if you lose your device or have to reset it, there is no way to restore old chats, and that’s by design). Additional irrit

OP, this is a good start. Everyone can do with criticism and introspection mixed with humor. Please continue making more. I’m sure Reddit would also be good source material for ideas.

I didn’t find a lot of substance in this article to make bold claims like “In two or three years, people won’t even talk about crypto.” My guess is that the author is shorting the major cryptocurrencies and could do with more negative senti

Your analogy with the car don’t make sense to me because it doesn’t seem like an apt comparison. I could ask you what you’d do if your car were obliterated by a tsunami or an explosive. There would be no intrinsic value to redeem in that ca

> No, not really. Much more commonly it is a security token (like a yubikey) or a TMP in another device. If you see this reply within the short edit window, did you mean TPM (and not TMP)? I don't know what a TMP is in this context.
