Not so for WebRTC. We use Snapdrop all the time to transfer between devices, and it just gets the two nodes talking, but the data xfer is peer to peer on our network. Works great.

I can relate to the author's story about discovering his dad's charts as a kid and being fascinated by them. I'd forgotten how much I poured over those things, especially with how dense they are. I'm sort of prompted to

I started some cross-platform work about 6 ago and came into Flutter with plenty of hesitation. I was fearing this much ranted about janky feeling, but so far it has not come. AFAICT from the forums and such, the Web target is definitely fa

I'm not very plugged into how to use these models, but I do love and pay for both ChatGPT and GitHub Copilot. How does one take a model like this (or a smaller version) and leverage it in VS Code? There's a dizzying array of GPT w

I was at a heavy equipment company that was sold on 6 Sigma. It was so bad. So much quality theater. Teams were culled of their “high potential” employees, who were sent off to become black belts and lead random projects with fancy story bo

I was in a similar spot. After too much hand wringing I decided to sign up for monthly ($10/month) sync and give it a solid two months. These are important tools that I’m happy to pay for, but they do take some time to evaluate. I figu

To the subjective complaints I’ll add heavy window tinting, specifically on windshields and front side windows. I don’t know if it is actually more common or I’m imagining that, but I really don’t like it as a pedestrian or fellow driver. H

I’ll redo my wish into: I wish Pikchr was more expressive. I’m not attached to Mermaid, but I do like things that make the common tasks simple. AFAICT the Pikchr language is still pretty close to its PIC roots, which is comparatively low le

For common diagrams, you probably should. I've used Pikchr, and if you want/need to place a lot of things manually or otherwise have a larger degree of control, then it fills that niche OK, I guess. But for whipping up a flowchart

I asked a flight attendant about the window shades once, and in addition to the visibility reasons, she also said it was to help create a uniform view. They need to scan for anything that is out of place, and having the shades randomly open

The patterns I've noticed, watching it evolve for nearly 20 years are: - They draft behind others, and I mean this in a good way. They seem to eschew trailblazing new features, but keep a close eye on alternatives (esp. Postgres) and h

gron is one of my favorite tools because I don't do this type of searching as much anymore and can't remember the options for more advanced tools (jq, etc). I can easily and confidently compose from gron -> grep though.
