I would note that I'm kinda neutral on this topic but so far, these accomplishments have been pretty iconic "Google News Article" successes: Impressive tech demos...that Google can't figure out how to monetize. Waymo so-

While I agree, I have found ChatGPT to be REALLY awful at symbolism because so many people are as well. It gives popular responses rather than most correct responses. As we have seen from politics, popular often times isn't correct. An

I used "better" to imply it is better than Sketch. It is not an original idea but it's a great product.

I get the impression that it kinda is like Minecraft: you have a 0,0 position and a scale factor. On a 1440p 100% scale display the bottom right corner would be position 2560,1440. When you zoom the position becomes 2560* scale factor by 14

Lol. Their key example is Figma…which is, effectively, a better knockoff of the native Sketch mac desktop app. It had that infinite canvas first.

This is why the iPhone is actually a good split here: The default camera App is bleeding edge on computational photography but then when you want the pro experience there is the app Halide which is just an incredibly well designed pro camer

Yes, though I would note that the flashlight industry got way brighter in the last 20 years. The good old trusty plastic incandescent flashlight with D cell batteries is what most households had sitting around for years prior and a modern s

Oh I'm one of them..but incredibly clear shorthand is helpful for these kinds of cases. Writing code like `const a = 5; b = a/2; c = a/b` is pretty nonsensical. but in tailwind these things have meanings: p = padding, m = mar

This is a good take here, even as someone who loves Tailwind, the intellisense should grep not just the class name but the contents. `leading` is an insane name for `line-height`

We found that the tailwind VScode plugin was hyper helpful along with cutting down the unneeded in tailwind.config. Once you do that, most styling and positioning is variations on sizing, colors, and text sizes. Then the intellisense is pre

The general feedback on the link is that it is absurdly specific and comes to some unfair conclusions. Tailwind is popular and loved by many for a reason.

The funny thing is that while the Author is writing a blog post about how this specific feature ruins the whole thing...we wrote a large scale multi-million active paying user platform with it this year...and ~1% CSS. (Almost all of it is i

Write me a media query, or a hover state in inline styles. You can't. So you fall back to classes and CSS and now your styles are split in the HTML AND css. Tailwind, in a very basic form is exactly this solved.

Tailwind, in use is almost exactly how one uses SwiftUI. Yes it scrapes and evals in the middle but that is exactly how things like typescript works. The Eval's outcome is smaller package sizes than basically anything. None of this is

That is kinda a good thing. It allows the industry to understand the ebbs and flow of what people enjoy. Like the cycle of life, it allows for the industry to thrive.

This. The secret super power in Tailwind is editing the tailwind.config.js and forcing standards. Then you have have something like only having four padding options per your style guide and them defined in one specific place. In style tags

So we are building an all new...rather large scale product for millions of users and have been using Tailwind since the beginning of the year. In my experience writing a production app the only miss in Tailwind for me from article is the sy

That's the bad thing about safety. It is a margin item. You can pretty much look at a Suburban and, let's say a modern Yukon. Per 100,000 cars produced the death rate is probably 1/5th of that of the classic Suburban. That st

This. Hell, if you, as a skilled user, can't do your job on any OS just fine then the problem is you, not the software. You need to learn the software and adapt. Yes there are exceptions for some tasks where the hassle isn't worth

Aero might play in a tiny way at the 40-60 MPH space, not meaningfully enough. As for tires, no actually you can go much further than this. The big detail is wear and heat caused by tire softness and pressure. Road car tires can't enab
