It might be the case that the nuance is insufficient (false dichotomy). Suppose someone asks the [emotionally loaded] question: "Is abortion wrong?" Technically this is a yes or no question; a binary. One can quite easily answer t

It's impossible on my Tesla. You get a notice to install and a warning that you won't be able to drive for up to 45 minutes. You cannot click install unless the car is in park. You can always decide never to install an update. T

Curation IS arguably one of the most critical factors. A library is useful because of what it doesn't contain, not because of what it does contain. The hypothetical "library of all possible books" isn't useful to anyone.

And called out the second part of Dune as a bad film. It got written off as simply a "sci-fi sequel"; I think for that movie in particular it is more fair to say that doing the book justice couldn't be done in a single film a

Sometimes I think it's better to think of rails as a dialect of Ruby.

I am from the area so was at that event. I still have my bamboo badge. The Documentation as Empathy talk is one that I still think of often. It was fun to hang out with those guys after too. Lovely folk.

Django has supported database routing for ages. I've abused it for setups like yours (at least as I vaguely understand from the post details) to avoid using a datalake

Yea the cult of personality (crumbled now but was more a thing 5-10 years back) resulted in a lot of people falling for marking FUD which sucks. I've been in software dev way too long to buy that nonsense. As far as my expectations hav

My experience wasn't too different until v12. Until then the main value add was long trips on highways; it did a good job of keeping me from drifting lanes due to attention lapses and was good at dynamically adapting to highway traffic

I think that's true in the general sense but a lot of that hasn't been really tested simply because of the power of tradition. Part of what [may] be dangerous about Trump is that he is perceived as willing to run roughshod through

I feel smart because I got your very funny joke. Silliness aside, I actually had almost the same thought when I was reading the post lol. Great minds think for themselves so I guess maybe we're only really good minds then. Ahh well....

The fact that something can do something better than me doesn't make much difference. The problem there is the comparison. I like doing things for their own sake; I like knowing things and the process of attaining said knowledge. Makin

No, but there are some good apps on the F-Droid store.

It's amazing how good some of the apps on the F-Droid app-store are.

That part is one of the things that makes all of it extra funny. By everyones content from each platform ending up on all the other platforms, they get subjected to a different set of ranking algorithms. The ones that spread beyond one pl

For personal projects I'm now using HTMX & HyperScript + Django (I have a custom middleware and view class I wrote that steamlines a lot of it). That's helped a ton with the frontend fatigue for me. All the benefits of a SPA w

I think it's a combination of the network effect along with the "good enough" element. There is a point where a framework gains inertia regardless of whether or not there are better offerings simply because it's what peo

"Little more effective than a placebo" conflicts with the large number of patients who claim SSRIs have been a life-changing treatment for them. That statement only makes sense if tested against placebos. A lot of folk on placebos

HN is generally okay with dissenting viewpoints. I didn't know scurvy was considered contagious; that's pretty cool. I did know people used to cure it by drinking tea made from Arborvitae trees - or at least its European counterpa

I'm not sure they solve the same problems; if you NEED the REST api and want to keep all of that consistent then something like react makes more sense. If you're just building a webapp then you can do a low-js SPA app that's
