I think the reddit post missed the point multiple times. Laravel does not use the best principles everywhere, yes. Taylor Otwell is a (very) strange person, yes. But "Laravel should be considered harmful for the PHP community" is

Wow, what a brutal review. I had to read the first paragraph several times to let the brutality fully sink in. I was hoping that it would get better, that the author would bring some positivity to the book, but that hope was in vain. I have

Back in the day, we named the computers of our customers by tv shows or movies (futurama) and the disks inside them after the characters (fry, zoidberg, etc.). Worked well.

Exactly. When I'm doing anything with money here in Germany, like creating a bank account, or borrowing money, I have to answer multiple questions about me being a citizen of the USA or not. Why is that? Because everyone adheres to USA

One often finds derogatory remarks about PHP, or that the popularity of the language is declining. Interestingly, the concept of PHP prevents exactly such problems, as a monolith written in PHP only ever executes the code paths that are nec

This is great news! Everyone who doesn't use PHP increases my hourly rate ;-)

Oof. What does this mean for us people using mariadb? Is there a big company that uses mariadb enough, that the development of the db is secured?

I think they did something with copilot x and vscode, where they have a chat like window in the IDE. But I'm using PHPstorm and since I mostly write laravel code, nothing is better than PHPstorm with the laravel idea plugin. I also th

I can't share my code, but I do things like "here is my Livewire component and here is the blade view, remove these three properties and replace it with a Carbon object". And then I paste like 400 lines of code and walk aroun

I think the assumption that companies are willing to spend 10 billion dollars on AI training is unrealistic. Even the biggest companies would find such an investment to be a financial burden.

Yes, the article got it wrong. Klosterbräu is in Brandenburg, near Berlin. If you have the chance, try "Schwarzer Abt". It is a very sweet tasting beer, nothing like the big brands of german beer.

You can't right now. This is their website about powdered beer: https://www.klosterbrauerei.com/shop/Bierpulver/951/951 They plan to sell is mid 2023.

If you stay on the starting page, you can scroll down and see the prices (from 10k to 14k per unit + installation costs).

I have the backup codes of my most important account (email) printed and in my wallet. Without a hint to which account they belong. This helped me multiple times, where my phone was not available. I would recommend this to everyone, who use

This is the way. The KeepassXC File is under your control, and you're able to make as many copies, as are necessary. 2fa is the right thing, but having the TOTP Codes on only a single device will get you in bad situations.

I understand that the statement "only no alcohol is really safe" is correct. But it is not helpful in my everyday life. Exactly the same problem exists with gasoline. It is simply not possible (or extremely costly) to completely a

I think that is dangerous advice. It's easier to use Bitwarden, or KeePassXC in Google Drive, than a spreadsheet where you have to follow such rules. And the former ist much more secure against a lot of mistakes and attacks.

"meh" as the only feedback I find extremely condescending. Someone has done (a lot of) work, written a tool that is considered useful enough, and kindly made it available to everyone with a free license. I feel only gratitude for

Yes, please! Politics, technical inventions and the things people do in their free time are different things! Please stop mixing all of those together. This is a ad hominem attack and I can't stand it.

Well, some of the things shown in the film were already reality at that time. Only that one was called a conspiracy theorist, if one has noted this at that time.

This test is, of course, limited to the equipment with which you perform it. The most important equipment by far is your own ears. I was 16 when the audience was blindly played the same song (by Michael Jackson) from vinyl, CD and DVD on a

Well, the dell R710 is like five generations behind. This translates to 10+ years, saving power wasn't important back then.

20 years later, it should be clear, that utf will stay with us as long as we will read text from screens. So there might be something to the criticism that the space in UTF will eventually be insufficient.

Dreamweaver was great! It was the only wysiwyg editor, that didn't mangled your html code. And it had some kind of templating feature, which enabled me to build an entire website around hundreds, maybe thousand's of pictures.

I have no idea, but I think it could be better than a bloated website over a crappy connection. Maybe you should try and tell us how it went?

Brian Krebs is more than a bad journalist. He harms people and companies for his own gain. I have never heard of ubiquiti, except here on hn, but I think they're completely right in suing him. Fuck you, Krebs.

I used audition before it was bought by adobe, and it was a very good audio editor. But today, almost anything is better than audition. A wonderful, if a bit ugly and “raw” DAW is Reaper. I use it for everything. The big contenders are Able
