For me it’s because my cat won’t stop trying to step on my keyboard.

I love my VW GTI and I won’t replace it with an electric car until someone releases something equally good in a similar form factor (hot hatch or close). The physical button UI is a huge part or why I love the car. The mockup here is better

Can’t stand this. I want to challenge the CTO of my bank to a public debate about password best practices.

Well done. One thing that struck me is how young the framework is in the big scheme of things. When I first got into programming around 10 years ago, people were already writing articles about how Rails was near obsolete so without giving i

If I have the skills and willingness to use another AI, then I might as well do the whole thing by myself. Agreed on this not being the type of image you’d vectorize. In this specific case I’d want high res images suitable for print, or for

Price feels fair for saving me time, but I have no use for a fairly low-res image. Do brands really want logo images that are less than 4k resolution and aren’t vectorized?

I love Elixir, but I don't agree that it's the only language with a great standard library. Go has one too.

I’ll never forget the day that there was pizza available on the 10th floor of corporate headquarters and an email sent to thousands of employees who do not work at headquarters.

Isn’t it still a problem as all these cars classified as trucks no longer have to meet car emissions and safety standards?

What convinces all of the aliens to crash their UFOs in America? Or is every govt part of the conspiracy?

I built my simple site with just Go, no libraries of any kind. Two years later it is such a dream to never ever have any dependency chores to do. Before that I had a Phoenix site and I feel like every time I touched it (months apart) I had

What about collecting real reviews but deleting all the negative ones? (Crate & Barrel) Or harassing sellers to leave feedback for every sale when positive feedback is literally the only option (ebay).

If Banksy painted a seagull on any house within miles of me, the homeowners associations would be calling for a paintover the next day. I’m slightly jealous that they at least get to be in the drivers seat of deciding what to do.

Agreed. I subscribe to a jazz magazine partly for the ads - I want to know about album releases and jazz festivals. Maybe FB has improved in the years since I deleted my account but I never received ads as relevant to my interests as what

When I was fresh out of music school I rewrote the music for a tv series for overseas use. The budget was very low and they re-used the songs in many episodes instead of paying for the true number of unique cues in the us version.

I hire artists to turn my terrible sketches into decent looking stickers, generally in a fun, cartoony style. For the last two ideas I tried midjouney and the best I could get from it was an additional reference to send to an artist. I watc

I similarly have not had success defining most targets I want. It says “click here for advanced targeting” but that 404s.

I’ve made roughly -$400 so far from my jazz sticker business, https://www.jazzstickers.com . Not trying to make money, only to roughly break even and make more of my ideas happen.

Why can’t the extremely profitable companies manage their headcount through attrition? Losing 6% of your staff via a hiring freeze would work too wouldn’t it?

If you can’t request off the entire year and get approved, it isn’t unlimited.

I did go to Berklee and loved it - the most open minded and forward thinking of the music schools in my opinion. Also, I'm a huge fan of The Smile, and that was my overall favorite record from last year. I covered one of their tunes a

People desire the Shaqs too - apparently 100M+ have been sold. At 5k to 20k units each time, hyped release Nikes will never ever add up to that type of volume and can never contribute meaningfully to a $200B company's bottom line. They

Jazz education is a blessing and a curse. Most high level high school programs are focused on the Essentially Ellington competition, meaning that they learn to swing, to play with humanity and emotion, and to blend together. All good things

The most powerful anti bot measure would be to make an order of magnitude more shoes. Then everyone who wants a pair can have one, Nike gets 10x the revenue, no reason for bots to game the system, no need to pay VM experts to design anti bo

Love this. As a music YouTuber who can’t stop buying camera lenses and instruments and isn’t yet at the 1000 sub mark for monetization, my earnings are solidly red. Nice to see that black is possible. (I’ll keep creating and sharing either
