He did the Nazi salute twice on stage. He shared anti-semitic propaganda on X, unbanned known nazis, openly campaigned for AfD, a party that has actual Nazis in its ranks, renamed his AI chatbot Mecha Hitler. The list goes on. He is very mu

I’ve been writing Ruby profesionally for over a decade and while the writing has been on the wall for almost the entire time, it’s more certain than ever that Ruby is on its last legs. Big legacy companies who have invested heavily into Rub

> Rails Hotwire really caught my attention, especially because of how fast you can build an MVP with Rails. But I still needed background jobs, real-time updates, and two-way communication that just works. Those things are possible in Ra

Exactly, this is all blogspam at this point. Ignores all the features available in Rails so he can pick Elixir/Phoenix the “winner”.

About 77 million people voted for Trump in 2024, that is 22% of the US population. He is actually far more unpopular than people think.

It's not about green policies, it's about Germany getting rid of its nuclear reactors after Fukushima and getting addicted to cheap Russian gas. Now that the latter is verboten their entire industry is in shambles. This is all Mer

I've bought a Skoda after owning VW in the past and couldn't be happier. 80% (probably 95% for the things I actually care about) of what VW offers for almost 50% less.

No, I see them using the web interface actually, just like they've done so up until now. I don't think for instance this was keeping a lot of people from switching to Fastmail from let's say Gmail, which also doesn't off

Here's just one survey: https://survey.stackoverflow.co/2024/technology#1-integrated... showing how unpopular Emacs is. It has a lot of mindshare among greybeards but very few people actually use it.

Don’t forget Coffeescript. Just recently I worked at a company that was still postponing porting their Coffescript code, only new code was using Vue.

I couldn’t agree more, I’ve worked with Ruby/Rails for the past 10 years, and the youngest codebase I saw was 5 years old at that point. I did work on greenfield Rails apps but they were API only “microservices” so none of this FE stuf

Well the MEAP just started, 3 chapters are complete and the rest will follow probably next year. IMO it’s a bet: Zig stays stable enough and this will be _the_ Zig book for a while. Should the bet not pay off it still cements the author as

There might not be a Democratic retaliation anytime soon. Orban has been in power for 15 years in Hungary, and Trump is adopting a lot of his playbook. In addition, Trump also has a paramilitary force.

Sounds like you live in a country where elections were not manipulated by social media or at least not to the extent that they had to be annulled. Dark money and/or foreign nations with limitless money buying up digital adspace everywh

I’ve happily avoided Paypal in the last .. 6 years or so. Ever since Revolut came up with disposable cards I’m much less hesitant to give my card details to someone, also PP never stopped being shady and user-hostile in the meantime. So I’l

Seed oils being unhealthy is a recent meme I keep seeing, besides health influencers talking constantly about it, the science just isn’t there.

I use Burnout Buddy, it can block both apps and websites, you can set up custom rules, time based, usage based or triggered by Shortcuts (for instance I have one set up to block Reddit when I enter the gym).

Agreed, I’ve picked up an UPF 50+ shirt that can be used for swimming as well, I’m much more comfortable on the beach now. Dries as fast as any swimwear.

It’s the only painkiller allowed for pregnant women, so this leads me to believe this is some other form of conspiracy to control women (since the science does’t exist, it obviously doesn’t cause autism)
